New Schedule of Wages Soon to be Pre
scnted to the Southern Pacific.
Oakland, Cal., Nov. 4. Within the
next few days the Order of Railway
Conductors, Trainmen and Switchmen
will submit a schedule 61 wages to the
eoumein racinc company me re
quests of the men are very much the
same as those submitted by 'the engi
eers, firemen, telegraphers and others.
An increase of 15 to 20 per cent is
asked, together with a uniform rate of
wages on all the divisions of the Atlan
tic and Pacific systems. The demand
will take the same general course that
the others have. They will be passed
upon by trie respective departments an
then reforred to General Manager Agler
and Julius Krutsthnitt, assistant to
President Harriman. These two gen
tlemen in turn will pass upon the de

me aanner oi a general strike upon
the Southern Pacific lines is not
thcught to be great. Both the Jaen and
the company officials are of the sane
opinion. The heads of the departments
are unanimous in saying that the pos
sibility oi a great railroad strike is so
small that it cannot be considered even
a possibility. The men hold equally
pronounced views. The reason for this
belief is found in the fact that the com
pany has always favored unions. The
conservative organizations have always
bad the entire confidence of the com
pany, and there have been no differ
ences which have not been amicably
settled.

Boise. Idaho. Nov. 5. While erncf
ngures irom yesterday's election are
not yet at hand, enough is known to
assure a Republican majority on the
entire state ticket of some 3,000.
French, for congress, leads his ticket,
in most sections. Counties that were
supposed to be certainly Democratic
liave swung into the Republican line.
Figures from Shoshone show f hot tlm
Republicans have carried that
by at least 300, and elected their legis
lative ticket. Ada county has given a
majority of 700; Nez Perce and Latah.
400 to 800 each. Thrnntrlinnt tha
southeast everything is Republican so
far as heard from, and it is believed to
be a clean sweep in that section. Ban
nock tounty eives Mori ison, Rep., for
governor, 300 majority. There French
did not do so well, his lead being com
paratively small. Republicans will
have 47 members of the legislature, a
majority of 13 on joint ballot.

as the vote is counted.
CALIFORNIA.
San Francisco. Nov. 5. Returns am
still scattering. Those at hand indi.
cate that if Franklin K. Lane, the
Democratic nominee for governor,
maintains his present gains, he will ha
elected over Pierce, Rep., by a small
plurality. The Republican committee
hag reduced its claim for Pardee irom
10,000 to 5,000. Lane estimates his
majroity .in San Francisco at 15,000.
With the exception of governor, the
Republicans will probably elect their
eutire state thket. The Republicans
have lost one and probably three mem
bers of congress. Loud, in tha Fifth
is defeated by W. J. Wynne, the Union
Labor candidate, and Gillette, in the
First, and Coombs, in the fWnnd am
running behind their ticket. The re
maining five members of congress, are,

WEALTHY INDIAN ROBBED.
Had $22,000 Hid In an Outbuilding, which
Three White Men Discovered.
Butte. Montana, Nov. 5. a special
from Plains says that one of the most
sensational robberies that has ever oc
curred in the history of Western Mon
tana was enacted near Plains yesterday,
news of which has just reached this
place. A wealthy Flathead Indian
named Machell was robbed Saturday
night of $22,000 in cash, the money
consisting of $100 bills and $20 gold
pieces.
Machell was a visitor in' Plains Sat.
urday night, and during his absence, at
about 10 o'clock at nitrht. n man
dressed as a squaw called at his home
on uamag 1'rairie and engaged in con
versation with Mac-hell's squaw. Mrs.
Machell noticed that the visitor wag not
a Bquaw, but a white man, as he could
not talk good Flathead, but she did not
suspect what was wrong nntil ahn sue
two men run from an outbuilding, car
rying something with them. Then it
was that her eusuicion was aroused.
the wealth wag stored in that building.
Ihe roobers jumped on their horses,
which were near by. and the one that
had been talking to her ioinnd thnm.
and the three rode hurriedly away.
as goon as she reached the Plains
with the news, several of the white
citizens of that place) accompanied
Machell to big home to see if the story
was true, which wag proved on their
arrival there. A score of young In-
diang started out to try to locate the
robbers, but no clew has been found.
Machell ia the wealthiest full-blood
Indian on the reservation. He has
large herds of cattle and horses, and
was always known to have monev. but
few people knew that he kept it at
home. It develops, however, that the
old Indian was afraid to trust bis
money in the bank, and kept it in an
old trunk in an outbuilding at his
ranch.
