Wayne Amos, known throughout the southwest as the “Abraham Linc Southern California,” and who perhaps bore the nearest likeness to the martyr- living man, dead Amos died at the residence of his daughter, Mrs, H. A. Brimmer, in the city of Redlands last Thursday even- ing after an illness which lasted over period of three weeks. committee of the Miners' and Opera- tors’ Association has offered a reward for evidence leading to the arrest and conviction of the perpetrators of the crime. In a published statement the committee says: “The killing of Superintendent Mc- Cormack and Melvin Beck of the Vin- dicator mine was one of the most dia- bolical crimes that ever darkened the annals of Colorado, and is another step in the trail of blood which has been made by the Western Federation of Miners in this State. The time has passed fine terms in which to speak of these matters, and we do not hesitate to say that this crime was devised and exe- cuted by the inner circle of this or- ganization “Thi ement is made only after a careful investigation of the facts, which conclusively that these men met for selecting show their death through a ningly devised and carefully execute as to tax the ingenuity of the most ex- perienced criminal. “Of late the district has been filling up with this class of men, who openly boast what they propose to do. Not a single circumstance surrounding this crime is compatible with the theory of accident and with any other thgory than that of premeditated murder.” The district executive committee of | the Western Federation of Miners char- “lament- all,” and acterizes the explosion as a able accident, regretted by adds: . “But prejudiced individuals, who rarely know anything of what they talk about, have already passed judg- | ment and denounce it as cold-blooded | murder. Expérience teaches, however, that these people are not above meking capital out of any public misfortune.” In consequence of this outrage Gov- ernor Peabody has reinstated Adjutant General Sherman M. Bell in command | of the militia force in this camp, suc- | ceeding Colonel Edward Verdecksburg, | who has been in command since Bell’'s cetirement at the close of the court- martial trial of General John Chase. The military authorities at various hours to-day, by order of Genéral Bell, | who i now in supreme gommand of all the troops in the Cripple Creeck district, made the following arrests in connec- | tion with the plot to disable the Vin- dicator mine: Charles G. Kennison, W. B. Easterly, W. F. Davis, John School- craft, Gus Johnson, J. B. Isbell, Robert Rowland, Victor Poole, Harry Wil- liams, Ed Fleming, H. P. Jones, Sher- man Parker, Frank Crase and Robert Adams. The latter is a brother of the miner who was arrested last night. Sherman Parker is commissioner of District No. 1 strike committee and Kennison and Davis are members of that committee. Near- ly all of the men arrested are members of the Miners’ Union and are charged either directly or indirectly as acces- sories to the blowing up of the mine. i Even now he ! t hill- | twelve years. is | | scheme g0 cun- | | Amos ity, ha I A | mo side burying ground r.t far from Rialto, his body, like unto that of Lin-{ rapped in the folds of the Stars ripes. of people followed the flow- | den casket to the grave side, for | ras a popular man In this vicin- | ving taken an active part in pub- | lic life for many years.

Peace megotiations continued | to-day, but willke confined to the con- sideration by the board of directors of the road of a proposition submitted to | the company last night by the strikers. | A basis of settlement of all the other | differe , it is said, has been agreed | upon, and unless the company refuses | | to accede to this new demand of the { union an amicable adjustment of the | | whole dispute should be reachied no la- | ter than to-morrow night. This new | proposition, it is said, provides for the | arbitration of the grievances of the un- jon on the system that struck in sym- | pathy with the trainmen. What action the directors took to-day on this de- mand is not known, as tiee answer will not be given to the union until to-mor- | row. While the negotiations logking to peace were in psogress this efternoon a4 monster mass meeting was held at Tattersali's to plan assistance for the strikers. . Nearly every union in Chi- cago was revresented and it is esti- mated that fully 15,000 persons were present. The men formed in processions in different parts of the city and marched in bodies to the hall. Several sections of the parade crossed the lines of the Chicago City Railway Company, which were in operation, but there was no disturbances or acts of violence and the paraders reached their destination without mishap. The meeting was ad- dressed by Clarence 8. Darrow, attor- ney for the strikers; Judge Prentiss, President Mahon and several other la- bor leaders. Resolutions were adopted asking Mayor Harrison to withdraw the police from the cars and declaring for immediate munieipal ownership of all lines in the city. There was a marked increase in the patronage to-day on the four lines be- ing operated by the company under po- lice protection. There were but few acts of violence, only three arrests be- ing made for interference. No attempt was made to open any of the other branches of the system, but unless a settlement of the strike is reached to- morrow the State street line and possi- bly a crosstown line will be opened for traffic Tuesday. The teamsters have become more deeply involved than ever in the strike of the Street car men.

President Agrees That Four Cabinet Members Shall Direct Affairs. SAN DOMINGO, Friday, Nav. 20.— Negotiation of a treaty of peace be- tween the rebejs and the Government of President Wos y Gil has begun. ! There was a suspension of hostilities for forty-eight hours under an amic- able arrangement. It is expected that the rebels will demand that President Wos y Gil announce a general election. The United States gunboat Newport has arrived here to reilleve the cruis- er Baltimore, which will leave on Sat- urday for coal. i WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.—A cable- gram received at the State Department to-day from Minister Powell reports that the President of San Domingo, Wos y Gil, having offered to retire from office, has agreed that the country should be governed by four members of the Cabinet, this arrangement to be effective pending a permanent settle: ment of affairs: . : BATES BEGINS INQUIRY. | General Intimates That Federal| Troops Will Be Called Out. DENVER, Nov. 22.—General John C. Bates, U. 8. A,, arrived in Denver to- day to investigate the strike conditions in Colorado. Upon his report dépends whether or not the War Department | will comply with Governor Peabody's ! request to send Federal troops to Tel- luride. After a visit to General Baldwin, Gen- | eral Bates said in an interview that his being here was no reflection upon Gen- eral Baldwin. “I am entirely ignorant of the situa- tion and will look into matters thor- oughly,” he continued. “The way Gov- ernor Peabody's request was worded caused the War Department to reply that troops could not be furnished, but if conditions are such that there is real need of Federal troops, I have no doubt they will be sent. I shall go from here| to Telluride and will probably stop at Cripple CrecK a few days' as I return.” General Bates left to-night for Tellu- ride. —_——— To Cure a Cold in One Day.

Nearly Four Thousand Dol- lars Taken and Con- fession Made. Police. Search for Sherman Andrews, | Who Was Connected With the Fruit Growers’ Express ~ in the South. —_— Speefal Dispateh to The Call. LOS ANGELES, Nov. 22.—Sherman ‘Andrews, for more than two years a confidential employe of the Fruit Grow- ers’ Express, the concern which con- trols the Armour cars used in the ship- ment of fruit, is 2 fugitive from jus- tice. In the hands of the police is a war- rant charging him with the embezzle- ment of $3847 76 - of the company’s money. Before his departure he cow had" been gone more than a day that the persons fo whom he made the confes- sion notified the authorities. W. A. Richardson, cashier of the company, with headquarters in Sac- ramento, .had charge of the Los Angeles and other offices, but next to him in authority stood Andrews, who handled the cash here. Many thou- sands of dollars passed through his hands and he had always accounted for every cent of it. Last Tuesday two of the employes discovered a shortage in the cash amounting to more than $2000. An- drews was charged with having caused it and confessed and asked until Sat- urday to make it good. Instead of en- deavoring to make good his shortage he secured a check for nearly $2000, which he cashed and pocketed the pro- ceeds. He disappeared Thursday night, after having spent most of the day quietly changing gold coin for cur- rency. The detectives have been un- able to find any trace of him. The cause of his downfall is drink, horse races and women. He is unmar- ried, 32 years of age and has no rela- tives in this part of the ‘country. The Fruit Growers’ Express will lese noth- ing, because Andrews is under a $500% bond executed by a surety company. —————— i Be a friend to yourself and others will. INDIANS MOURN “IHITE MOTHER™ Chiefs of Six Nations Weep at the Bier of Mrs. Converse.. ! Pathetic Ceremony in Tribute to the Woman Peace- | maker. NEW YORK, Nov. 22.—The last rltesj‘ were performed over the body of Mrs. Harriet Maxwell Converse, “the great | white mother” of the six nations of the | great Iroquois confederacy. FEulogles were pronounced by the dead woman's pastor and by the chiefs of the various clans of the Seneca nation, by whom Mrs. Converse was adopted when a lit- tle girl In addition to the delegations from the six nations, there were present/ representatives of the Hurons, Sloux, Abinki, Algonquins, Aztees of Mexico| and several other tribes. { Rev. Dr. Thomas H. Sill, the dead woman's pastor, read the Episcopal service. for .the dead, after which Wil-| liam Crow, a Seneca warrior, made an address in his native tongue. In speak- ing -he addressed himself to the dead womean. before him and in conclusion | wishéd her happiness In the spirit land. | Chauncey Abrahams, also a Seneca, | acting for Chief Corn Planter, informed Mr. Keppler, long rciated with Mrse| Converse in her work among the In-| dians, that Keppler had been selected to take the great white mother’s office. Keppler, in accepting, promised to faithfully administer the trust imposed in him. | Chief Corn Planter followed, wearing under. his waistcoat a red sash. While tears streamed down his face, he ex- pressed grief in a few words of broken English, and then, sinking back in his| chair, buried his face in his hands and wept aloud. Dark Cloud, a magnificent looking Indian, with hair streaming below his broad sHoulders, said: I know the great white mother as every | redman in this land knows her. She studied the Indians' religion, the true religion. Our God touched this woman's heart, and she un- derstood us. She was the angel of God Wea may not have a Christ In our religion, but we have & mediator, and she was the great media tor between the whites and the Indians. was a leader to us. She inspired us to bet things. We loved her, and now she is gone from us. But whilé we are sad, it is for us | that we are sad, not for her, because we know she is happy. ddresses were made by Chief Long- fellow, Morris Leigh, and Carlos, an Asztec Indlan from Mexico.

DON'T DO WAS NEVER MORE OPULARITY OF OUTDOOR SPOR EVIDENCE THAN TO-DAY “AT WORK” The publisher of The Call, in anticipating the tendency of the times in giving more time to recreation, hunting and fishing, has acquired for their exclusive use a series of art pictures which will serve as reminders during the busy months of those delightful days passed in the fleld. “At Work,” the title of the next Sunday Call’s offering, is a reproduc- tion from an oil painting by J. M. Tracy, an artist whose paintings of been surpassed. 4 Mr. Tracy had for the subject of this study the celebrated Llewellyn setter, “RUDERIGO,” who became famous in this country by his clean sweep of bench and field events. This picture, while it appeals strongly to those who know every point in a dog, is perhaps just as interesting to the many who love the faithful In hnmun}xg, color and action, “At Work” is a most life-like study; a picture that, when framed, could with difficulty be distinguished from the original oil paintifig. % ; To overlook this is to miss one of the best of IT.
