REBELS RULE IN PERSIA
devolution in Full Swing in South
and West.
TEHERAN. Aug. 28. The latest
news that has reached here by courier
confirms the reports that the revolu
tion is in full swing In the western
and southern parts of Persia. All three
tribes in Persian Kurdistan have raised
the banner of revolution under the
leadership of constitutionalists, and
demand the Immediate convocation of
parliament; otherwise they threaten to
declare for Independence. The govern
ment officials are falling into the
hands of the Insurgents everywhere,
and a large number of soldiers have
been killed. The governor of Sultanieh
has fled with a small remnant of loyal
troops, the remainder of the troops hav
ing Joined the insurgents. The gover
nor's residence was pillaged and
burned.
The uprising In the provinces of
Floristan and Karman, reports of
which were received here a few days
ago, is rapidly gaining ground. The
city of Karman Is entirely In the hands
of the revolutionists, the government
officials having either fled or sub
mitted. The vice-governor has been
killed. The seizure of the city was
preceded by a bloody battle, hundreds
being killed or wounded. The insur
gent leaders, who Include Kazlm Khan,
have organized a temporary govern
ment, and declared their intention to
ignore the central government until
the parliament shall be convoked.
The Sultan lacks the necessary
corps for the suppression of the revolts
In the different provinces. The seri
ousness of the situation Is mitigated
only by the absence of a strong preten
der to the throne, around whom con
stitutionalists could gather.

proach of the Two Americas."
Discussing the Monroe Doctrine, he
said:
"Tou keep away from the entangling
alliances which the father of your
country deprecated and yet a concen
tration of the American republics with
the Idea that they all form, under
different flags, a single political sys
tem. Is already a moral alliance."

confident assurance that California's elec
torate will indorse their selection by an
unprecedented majority.

N. J., to invest their savings In mining
stocks, resulted last nlht In the arrest
of Hesry T. Rodman, 62 years old, on a
charge of grand larceny. The women who
caused Rodman's arrest are Mrs. Martha
A. Taylor, a widow, and Mrs. Margaret
M. Thompson, of Newark. Mrs. Taylor
told Assistant District Attorney Klndel
herger that she had lost $2500 and Mrs.
Thompson ' $400. Last June, so the" story
goes, the two women went to a fortune
teller, whose name they say was adver
tised as W. Garnet. Garnet advised his
customers to buy gold and copper stocks.
In another trance. Garnet gave the name
of H. T. Rodman & Co. Mr. Rodman
was interviewed, and as a result, he re
ceived the $2900 Tor shares in a mining
company. A first dividend was paid In
June last year. When a second was de
manded, in July, Mr. Rodman persuaded
the two women to accept after that an
annual dividend. Instead of the monthly
payments. Subsequently he gave them
notes for double the money they had In
vested. .
When the Investors went again to get
cash for their paper, Rodman . had de
camped, they say, and so had the fortune
teller. Then they went to the District
Attorney's office.
Magistrate Finn held Rodman in $5000
bail for Mrs. Taylor's case and $1000 for
Mrs. Thompson's case. H gave bail.

Annis'- Slayer Appears In Citizen's
Clothes, Unshaven and Pallid
From Confinement Prisoners
Offer No Testimony.
NEW TORK, Aug. 28. Captain P. C.
Halns, Jr., and his brother, T. Jenkins
Helns, were held without bail for the
action of the grand Jury today on a
charge of the murder of William E.
Annis.
Captain Hains and his brother, T. Jen
kins Hains, a writer for magazines, who.
it is charged, held the spectators at bay
while the Captain- did the killing, were
arraigned in a magistrate's court in Long
Island City today. T. Jenkins Hains is ac
cused of being an accessory to the mur
der, while the Captain is alleged to be
the principal.
The announoed Intention of Captain
Hains' counsel to plead insanity as his
defense, together with sensational charges
which Captain Hains' counsel have made
against the Captain's wife, Involving an
alleged confession by her of Improper
friendship for Annis, have given the case
unusual interest.
The Halns brothers were taken from
the Queens County Jail, handcuffed to
gether, and rode In a streetcar In custody
of a deputy sheriff to Magistrate Gilroy's
court. Captain Hains, who, when he last
appeared In court, wore the uniform of his
Army rank, today was clad In citizen's
clothes, and his pallor and unshaven ap
pearance indicated the effects of his con
finement In Jail.
Three witnesses testified for the prose
cution. Patrolman Charles W. Baker,
who arrested the brothers after the
shooting, said that when he arrived on
the yacht olub float Aqnls was lying
there wounded.
Charles Roberts, a member of the
Bayslde Yacht Club, testified that he
witnessed the shooting and helped An
nis from the water, which was crimson
with his blood. Annis, the witness tes
tified, said to Captain Halns:
"You have made a horrible mistake."
The witness stated that he wanted to
Interfere at the sound of the first shot,
but that T. Jenkins Halns thrust a re
volver into his face and shouted:
"Keep back or I will kill you."
Afterward he said T. Jenkins Halns
asked the witness, "What could I do?
He was my brother. I have been try
ing to persuade him from doing this
for some time."
At this point Captain Hains inter
rupted his brother, .saying: "Keep still;
this is my affair."
Dr. Frey, the coroner's physician, de
scribed Annis' wounds, of which he
said there were 20, four of which would
have been fatal.
No testimony was given in defense.

the alleged murderer of Tuffa Shlshem,

appeared, was awake and unusually ner
vous when he knocked for entrance.

MASKED MEN ROB DEPOT
Hold Up Night Operator at Kennet,
Cal., and Secure $40.
REDDING, Cal., Aug. 28. Two masked
men entered the Southern Pacific Rail
road depot at Kennet at 3 o'clock this
morning and covering William Wood, the
night telegraph operator, with revolvers
ordered him to open the safe. After he
had convinced them that he was Ignor
ant of the combination the robbers pil
fered the money drawer, getting $40.
They then marched Wood around the
business part of the town, half a mile
away, down the railroad track, and let
him go.
The depot is less than 200 feet from
some all-night saloons, where crowds
of men were gathered,"" and for that rea
son the robbery was particularly bold.

thieves in the vicinity of Coram, as they

DEPRESSION, SAYS SHONTS.
President Chicago & Alton Declares
Freights Have Gone Down While
Other Prices Have Advanced.
CENTERVILLE, la., Aug. 28. Four
hundred former Appanoose County res
idents from half the states of the
Union Joined with 10,000 home people
at the Chautauqua "homecoming to
day. T. P. Shonts delivered the prin
cipal address, his subject being "Trans
portation." Among other speakers on
the programme was Senator C. F. God
dard, attorney for the Northern Pacific,
Billings, Mont.
"We still have hope," declared The
odore P. Shonts, president of the Clov
er Leaf, Chicago & Alton and Inter-borough-Metropolitan
Companies, "that
we are going to be let alone and al
lowed to run our own business. De
stroy that hope and we will have In
this country an era of misery that will
send to eternal damnation those who
are responsible for it."
Continuing he called transportation
the handmaiden of prosperity and said
it is certainly proper to see that her
feet tread the right path, but that the
maiden should not be loaded with fet
ters If she is to serve her mistress
with zeal and success.
He said: '
The railroads are entitled to a fair price
for what they have to sell, which Is trans
portation, just as any other corporation or
merchant. In the face of Increased cost of
operation and maintenance and with wide
spread demands for extension and better
ments, their rates have been gradually going
down. In the last ten years the price of farm
produce ha increased 25 per cent and the
price of food has Increased nearly 9 per cent.
But the average freight rate has decreasd
more than 18 per cent.
The only answer to this problem is that the
railroads must get more for what they have
to sell, the eame as any other business under
proper regulations. It do not help a situa
tion for one party to sin because another
has sinned, or Is thought to have sinned.
What we want now Is honealy and fair deal
ing on both sides, and I tell you frankly
that there can be no continued prosperity in
any part of the country if the transporta
tion Interests are unfairly dealt with. Po
litical pygmies when in power can easily leg
islate money out of corporations, but the po
litical giants, of all the giants, cannot legis
late money Into the corporations. In this
period of . business depression the railroads
should be preparing for the return of the
Industrial activity. But not a mile of new
track is being laid, nor is any equipment
being purchased that is not absolutely es
sential to the present needs of the roads.
Improvements Involving hundreds of millions
have been abandoned because of the vengeful
spirit that has temporarily possessed the minds
