He and I are too ad vanced In years, for one thing, to do any thing like that." The railroad officials of St. Paul say that Mr. McGulgan had a hard task before him when he went with the Great North ern. "Eastern and Western methods of operating are different." is the way one official tries to explain it. Whatever the definite cause for the difference In opinion, the one believed Is that Presi dent Louis W. Hill had one set of Ideas of how to operate the system, while Mr. McGulgan had another. Mr. McGulgan leaves over the Burling ton "for Chicago tomorrow night, whence . he will take the Grand Trunk to the East. He will be accompanied by his wife and son and Mr. and Mrs. Irwin Vernon. Mr. Vernon came from Montreal with Mr. McGulgan and has acted as as sistant to the first vice-president. The party will spend the rest of the Summer in a cottage, which Mr. McGulgan has rented, near Portland. For the present there will be no suc cessor to Mr. McGulgan. Later some one may be selected to take the title of first vice-president. b1a.l2r.tfcf. jjnie Louis Hill will be the supreme head of the op erating department. He was In direct charge of that end of the systembefore he was made president. Frank E. Ward will continue aa general manager, so that the organization of the department will be exactly the same aa U was before Mr. McGuigan's advent. Warned to Lay in Fuel Snpply. WASHINGTON, Aug. 9. The Inter state Commerce Commission yesterday made public certain correspondence with Western railroad and state offi cials as a warning to people of the West that unless they lay in supplies of coal this Summer they may again experience a fuel famine next Winter as bad or worse than that suffered last Winter. In a letter to the chairman of the Commission, Howard Elliott, president of the Northern Pacific, said: "If there should happen to be an other long, cold Winter in the West, such as the last one, there will be trouble again about providing an ade quate fuel supply. . Our company has added largely to its equipment In the last 12 months, but the country is growing so that more and more fuel is needed, and I doubt if it can all be handled after cold weather sets in." The Federal Government intends to see to it that all of its departments in the Western states are fully sup plied with fuel before Autumn. Orders to this effect have been issued by the Secretary of War, Secretary of the In terior and Secretary of the Treasury. Shipper's Petition on Rates. NEW" YORK, Aug. 9.

In order to give shippers some Inkling of a change In rates which might be of great Impor tance. SHERIFF'S CHILD IN JAIL YOVXG GIRL ARRESTED ON LARCENY CHARGE.

WOULD KILL PRESIDENTS Mexican Journal Advocates Murder of Roosevelt and Diaz. LOS ANGELES. Cal., Aug. 9. The Herald today will say: In a dingy build ing on San Fernando street is the head quarters of La Llbertad, the Mexican Sons of Liberty, a party organized to overthrow the present government of Mexico. Back of the publication is a junta composed of 15 members, which controls a membership of more than 30.000 Mexican laborers, calling themselves patriots. The object of the organization Is to overthrow the Diaz government, the as assasslnatlon of President Diaz and of President Roosevelt, and the con version of Mexico into a dictator ship, with Ricardo Magon as the head, and members of the local Junta as his advisers. In La Revoluclon, the killing of President Diaz and of President Roosevelt Is advocated. They are condemned by the junta because they are accused of having entered into a con spiracy to oppress the Mexican laborers In this country and rob them of their just - dues as wage-earners. President Roosevelt is also accused of incendiary language, cf being In conspiracy with President Diaz to perpetuate the Diaz government.

BUT WILL NOT PROSECUTE California Men Appeal Against Rule Limiting Use of Sulphur In Drying Cannot Save Them From the Jobbers. SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 9. Repre sentatives of fruit-growers and packers met Secretary, of Agriculture Wilson today and asked the Secretary to relieve them from the enforcement of the ptire food laws recently en acted, so that this year's crop, a larso portion of which is already dried, un der condition that are now Illegal, could be marketed and several mil lion dollars' worth of fruit made salable. Mr. Wilson said before the matter had been presented to him: "If you' go ahead and act accord ing to your light and prepare the fruit as you can, I will never call on the Federal Court to prosecute for in fringing on the pure food laws." The particular law in question is a decision of the Department of Agri culture that not more than 35-1000 of one per cent of sulphurous com pounds be found on the fruit when oit the market. The growers present this morning demonstrated from an ex hibit that, if only that amount of sul phurous compound could be found on the fruit, enough sulphur could not be used In the fuming either to keep the frlut from roctlng on ihe strays or to make a presentable marketable fruit. They showed dried fruit containing only that amount of sulphurous com pounds and it was black and partialiy consumed by dry rot, maklnsr it a much more unhealthy article of diet than the average well dried fruit, which contains 12-1000 of 1 per cent. Mr. Wilson ehowed distinctly that he would not yield further than to protect the growers from Government prosecution this year, but would do nothing to save them from the ad vantage that might be taken of the il legal position by the jobbers. STOPS WASTE OF TIMBER. Wilson Says Government Alone Can Prevent Famine. SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 9. Years of waste, careless methods and a short sighted policy in order to gain Immediate profits have brought the United States to the eve of a lumber famine was the declaration made by Secretary of Agri culture Wilson, who arrived here yester day from the Northwest. Although the Federal Government is doing all in Its power to ward off the peril, having set aside 150,000.000 acres of forest reserve land, the prospective famine, according to Mr. Wilson, can be prevented only by the individual holders of forest land or by state laws. "The waste has been incalculable," said Mr. Wilson, "and the Increased cost of lumber at present heralds an lmpendnlg famine. The loss by forest fires alone amounts to hundreds of thousands of dollars every year." In reply to a question as to the prob ability of the Federal Government's taking some action for perpetuating the forests by replanting, Mr. Wilson said that it will have to come to that In time, but the checking of the present peril rests with the states and through state laws. The greater part of the Eastern and Middle West country now looks to the Pacific Coast for lumber and, if . the Coast states wish to maintain this profit able industry In the future, they will have to pass suitable laws governing forests.. LOUISIANA RATHER SWIFTER Government - Built .Connecticut Slakes Slightly Less Speed." WASHINGTON. Aug. 9.

There are no new developments In the strike of the Southern Pacific boiler makers, which originated at Los Angeles because of alleged discrimination by Fore man Carter, who favored men In his em ploy who belonged to the same secret order of which he was a member. The men are not dissatisfied with their pay, which, on the Oregon lines, amounts to from 40H to 41 cents .an hour. They have merely gone on a sympa thetic strike as a result of the walk-out at Los Angeles and will be entirely satis field If they succeed In having Carter dis missed from the company's employ. THEY DECLINE ARBITRATION Boilermakers Insist on Removal of Foreman Who Fights Union. LOS. ANJiELESi Aus. A-Ita BtiXklDg bollermakers on the Southern Pacific railroad who walked out this week be cause of alleged discrimination against union men In the Los Angeles shops, to day declined the offer of arbitration sub mitted by the company. President Payne, of Division No. 6 of the International Brotherhood of Bollermakers and Iron Shipbuilders of America, said to the As sociated press: We decline arbitration because labor near ly always' gets the worst of it in such cases, and for the further reason that the present strike cannot under any circumstances be settled except upon the company's grant ins our demands. We are only asking thac Foreman Carter of the Loa Angeles office be removed from bis present place and put some where else, so that' he cannot continue his work of discriminating against our mem bers and discharging them without cause. xAccordlng to my advice, about COO men are out In my division, which, extends from El Paso to Portland? and from San Francisco to Ogden. Kot a boilermaker la working. Moreover, the Atlantic division la ready to join us, and It la possible tbey may be called upon. That la the New Orleans dis Strike May Spread. LOS ANGELES, Aug. 9. Unless the demand of the striking bollermakers on the Pacific division are granted within 24 hours, drastic measures are promised by the International organi zation of bollermakers. President Georgo F. Dunn, from Kansas City, Mo., telegraphs the committee in con ference that all bollermakers on the Harrlman lines will be called out if the demands are not granted. NO SEAT, NO FARE IS UUV VIOLATED PROVISION OF NEW YORK CAR FRANCHISE. Hughes' Public Service Commission Already Making Reforms Vast Number of Strap-Hangers. NEW YORK, Aug. 9. One result of the investigation of the local railroads by the Public Service Commission . which is being cond-icted jy William Ivlns as counsel, will be an order to the Inter borough Metropolitan Company to change the type of car in the subway. Cars with side doors will be ordered, and it Is ex pected they will do away with the crude stations now so much complained of. The innovation will cost 11.000,000 or more. While much of the testimony brought out at the hearing is chiefly of local im portance, there are occasionally some de velopment of more than passing Interest. One of these is that in 40 per cent of the cars run upon the local roads, there are strap-hangers. Another Interesting point brought out was the reading by Mr. Ivins of a por tion of the Incorporation act of the Man hattan Elevated Company, which con tained a provision that a seat should be provided for each passenger. If a seat Is not obtained, a passenger could ride free of charge. The road was Incorpor ated In 1875: probably so long ago that this Interesting provision was forgotten. Another thing which the commission is doing and which New Yorkers are noting is the sending of men to all sections of the city to keep tab upon the time and number of trains and cars. These agents are seen at all hours of the night and day taking notes. Their purpose and usefulness will probably develop later through orders to the company by the commission. MORGAN'S ART TREASURES Visitor Describes Priceless Collection In London Mansion. LONDON. Aug. 9.

Each of these books will com JfttiO, and It Is Mated they will be presented to the crowned heada of Europe. TO CURTAIL LEAD OUTPUT Significance Said to Attach to Visit of Trust Officials to Wallace.

Per rln for alleged conspiracy against the United States Government wa3 com menced before Judge de Haven and a jury in the United States District Court this morning. George C.
