Justice Wright Receives Many Let-
ters From Gompers Sympathizers.
WASHINGTON. Jan. S "I have not
been measured for my shroud yet. nor
can I say I am afraid to co home in
the dark," commented Justice Daniel
T. Wright, when asked about the hun
dreds of threatonine letters sent to
him by persons who were displeased
over his recent decision sentencing?
Samuel Gompers, John Mitchell and
Frank Morrison to prison for contempt
of court
"Of such communications I have re
ceived a wastebasket full." said the
Justice, "but I am losing no sleep over
the threats contained in them. I am
amused, rather than terrified."
One of the writers declares he will
arrive In five days to kill the Justice,
while smoother asserted that "your de
cision will be a very unhealthy affair
for you before we are done with you.
The undertaker will have a Job down
your way before long, and you will
be the chief mourner."
Many of the letters sent to the Chief
Justice contain Insulting' comments on
the decision. The Justice says he Is
consigning all these communications
to the wastebasket.

NO ROOM FOR ROSE EYTINGE
Veteran Portland Actress Denied
Place In Forrest Home.
PHILADELPHIA, Psff Jan. 8. Rose
Eyttnge, the famous old actress, is
knocking for admission to the Edwin
Forrest Home and there Is not room
for her. Under the will of Mr. For
rest the community is limited to 12
persons. Although vacancies are com
paratively frequent, there are several
applicants ahead of Miss Eytlnge, but
with childlike faith she Is Journeying
across the continent from Portland, Or.,
having left there yesterday, hoping that
a way will be found. She has no more
money than will bring her here. She
does not know yet that the decision
must be final.
The many Portland friends of Rose
Eytlnge will be greatly surprised to hear
that the eminent actress cannot be ac
commodated at the Edwin Forrest Home.
When Miss Eytlnge's health failed a
short time ago and she decided to apply
for admission to this home for retired
actresses, it was understood there would
be no difficulty in obtaining accommoda
tions. It Is believed that the Philadel
phia dispatch printed above Is Inaccurate
and that Miss Eytlnge will find no diffi
culty in obtaining accommodations.

great importance, relating to amend
ment of present laws. There was one
exception, however, this being the pro
hibition of free railroad, telegraph or
telephone passes or franks to all Per
sons except actual employes.
