A dispatch from Steamboat Springs
to the Denver Republican says: Game
Day opened Friday under flic* most
auspicious circumstances nnd Is clos

3,000 people are pnrtlelpntlng. The
races were held yesterday afternoon.
This morning there was speaking and
the barbecue, and this afternoon there
will he broncho riding nnd steer rop
ing. The game barbecue was an im
mense success. There were roasted
twenty-three deer, seven antelope, two
boar and two elk, the latter being
private stock. The tables measured
1,000 feet, surrounding the barbecue
pits. Prominent citizens volunteered
as waiters und the people were served
promptly nnd efficiently. In the morn
ing ex-Governor Adams. T. T. John
son and Judge Sale made short speech
es congratulating the people of Routt
county upon the successful Innugura
tlon of the new day. The exhibit of
resources excited the greatest surprise.
Probably no better small exhibit 'was
ever shown and the tent was crowded
from morning till night. The most as
tonishing grains, grasses, vegetables,
fruit, coni and mineral was shown,
representing the resources of this un
developed section of Colorado. At the
broncho riding and steer roping this
afternoon some of the most noted rid
ers of the went will take part.
There was a great deal of disappoint
ment In Lend v I lie. Pueblo and Colo
rado Springs because the regiment did
not parade through the streets as ex

of tlie hour when the trains reached
Loadvllle. the population was all astir.
In Pueblo the police and fire depart
ments. the local military company and
civic organizations were In line for the
parade ami the streets were thronged
with people waiting to see It pass. At
Colorado Springs this afternoon tlie pa
rade of the regiment was looked for
ward to as one of the star feat fires of
the Flower Festival, and when It Im>-
caine known that the soldiers did not
Intern! to march a groan went up from
one end of the city to the other. But
there Is another side to the mntter—
the* side of the men themselves. They
have had the most tedious trip from
(lie const that it is possible to Imagine
It has l*eeu hot and dusty, and even
had their travel I wen unbroken all of
them would he suffering from fatigue
and loss of sleep. When to that Is
added the fact that they have lieen
compelled to stop at so many places,
and have been aroused at all hours of
the night by enthusiastic friends. It Is
not to be wondered at that tlie limit
of human endurance lias lieen reached.
That Is where the other side comes In.
and nobody will say that it is not
strong. The men feel deeply the ap
preciation shown by the people of the
state, nnd they are confident that their
weariness will atone for any disap
pointment to the public in the cities
named through their failure to march
It was a pandemonium of color
rather than a confusion of noises that
greeted the returning campaigners
from the Philippines Wednesday after
noon as they took possession of Colo
rado Springs nnd enjoyed the festivi
ties of the carnival. Flowers were tlie
reignitig element and they vied among
themselves with the weapons of beaut v

A BLAZE OF ORATORY.
Trust (ongrvM at Chicago Closes With
Spaoch Making
Chicago, Kept. 18.—The conference
oo the uses and abuses of trusts
closed its sessions lien* Saturday In a
blaze of oratory, In which W. J.
Bryan and W. Bourke Cock ran were
the central figures. Mr. Cockrau fol
lowed the noted Nebraskan, but dis
claimed any Intention of delmtlng the
conclusions of his immediate predeces
sor niul declaring Ills complete concur
rence In much that Mr. Bryan had said.
The westerner had delivered the
speech of the day during the forenoon
Hiniil frequent Interruptions, of tumul
tuous applause. Mr. Foulke of Indi
ana. commenting on the speech, made
assertions which Mr. Brynn desired
further to discuss. He wns requested
to take the stage and compiled, for the
siH-ond time facing n wildly enthusias
tic house.
At the conclusion Mr. Cockrau arose
niul observed:
"Just a few words." The spectators
wanted more and refused to Htil>slde
until he had taken the platform. He
agreed with Mr. Bryan, he said, but he
wanted Information.
Mr. Bryan's plan of campaign as out
lined to-day Is ns follows:
First—That the state should have the
right to create whatever private cor
porations the people of the state think
best.
"Second—That the state has, or
should have, the right to Impose sueli
limitntions upon an outside corporn
tlon ns the people of the state may
tLink necessary for their necessary
protection.
"Third—That the federal government
lias, or should have, the right to Im
pose such restrictions as Congress tuny
think necessary upon any corporation
which does business outside of the
state hi which It is organized. In other
words. I would preserve to the people
of the state all the rights they now
have, and at the same time have Con
gress exercise a concurrent remedy,
then supplement the state remedy. I
would not take away from the jieople
of the state nny right now existing,
hut I would have the federal govern
ment and the state government exer
cise the (lowers that may Ik* necessary
to ninilliilate the monopoly. I do not
agree with the gentleman that you can
not annihilate n monopoly."
"I have no doubt that nny remedy
Mint I priqHised would Ik* assn lilted. If
those who believe that Ihe trust must
reinnlii and those who lielieve that the
trust menus good, will try it nnd then
accept a better one If* a lietter one >s
proponed, and keep on trying until the
people arc protected, the mouopoly
would Ik* overcome.”
In conclusion. Mr. Bryan said:
"Let me suggest one oilier thing that
I lielieve will lie n step in the rigid di
rection. The great trouble lias been
Mint while our platforms denounce cor
isirntioiis, corporations control the
elections and place under obligation to
them the men who were elected to eu
force the law.
”Is*t me propose a remedy—not a
remedy, hut a Step. I think. 11l the
right direction. Lei (lie laws, state and
national, make It a penal offense for
any corpora Mon to contribute to the
campaign fund of nny isdlMcal party.
Nebraska lias such a law, passed two
years ago. Tennessee has such a law.
pnssiil two years ago. Such a law was
passed, or was Introduced In the state
of New York, but so far it has not
reached tin* stage of actual law In the J
state of New York.
"I do not menu to say Mutt that rem i
edy would lie a complete one, but 1
believe tlint when you prevent n cor
poration from contributing to campaign
funds Mint you take a step in the right
direction toward better legislation, be
cause some corimratlons are compelli-il
to contribute. They are blackmailed
Into contributions, and such a law
would protect a eor|K>ratlou that did
not want to contribute. If the jwuple
are in earnest, they can do It. anil you
could never do anything In this coun
try until the people are In earnest, anil
when the American people understand
what the monopoly question menus, I
believe that there will be no | lower,
political, tlnaneinl or otherwise, to pre
vent the ]>coplc from taking imihscssloii
of every branch of government from
President lo the Supreme Court and
ninkiug the government responsible to
tin* people's will."
FIGHT BETWEEN MINERS.
Karo War at Cnrtrrvllle, Illinois,
With Sts Ilrattm.
Cnrtervllle, 111., Sept. 18.—Cartervillo

given medical treatment and nir In
quest held over the dead ones. Later,
near the Brush mines in another part
of the city, two other dead bodies were
found.
Superintendent Donelly of the Brush
hi I ties, where the negroes reside, re
ports that the negroes are worked up
into a frenzy and that while lie Is do
ing all In Ids power to hold them in
check, he Is afraid Mint he cannot do
so much longer, and that unless the
militia arrives shortly further trouble
may be look ill for.

miners from the Herrin mines left that
place for this city this evening, armed

INHERITANCE TAX LAW.
t'sllfnrnl* Measure Is Valid and Will Take
•.'IOO,OOO From the Stanford K*tate.
San Francisco. Sept. 10.— I The Su
preme Court of California, In an opin
ion handed down in the matter of the
estate of Senator Lein ml Stanford, has
held as constitutional the act of 1803
taxing collateral inheritances.
This opinion, rendered by four jus
tices. one dissenting, reverses the de
cision in the same ease written a year
ago by Supreme Court Justice Harri
son. who dissented from tin* majority
opinion to-day. The law ns laid down
to-day applies to every estate in Cali
fornia over sstiO in value and puts im
mediately Into tin* school fund nearly
$.*100,000. all of which comes from the
Stanford estate.
When Senator Stanford died he left
n will in which among other bequeata,
he gave $2,500,000 to trustees for the
benefit of the university lie had es
tablished. and $1!. 1100,000 to certain of
his nephews and nieces residing In this
state nml 111 the Fast.
The district attorney of this county,
on behalf of tin* treasurer, brought an
action against Mrs. Stanford, ns admin
istratrix. for $235,750 taxes on the col
lateral inheritances mentioned. In the
lower court Judgment went In favor of
the law and an appeal was taken to
t Im* Supreme Court by Mrs. Stanford,
which reversed the judgment of tin*
lower court on the ground that the leg
islative amendment' of 18J»7. exempting
liM-al heirs and taxing foreign heir In
heritances was a discrimination nml
lienee the net and amendment were
unconstitutional.
Tills decision was regarded as a
great victory, rts it was n hard blow to
the Inheritance tax art.
The attorney general of the state se
cured a rehearing nml by tin* Supreme
Court's second decision the constitu
tionality of the act under consideration
is upheld on the ground that the tax In
question is not upon the property, hut
upon the right of succession, ami the
right of the Legislature to Impose an
excise tax includes the right to select
the subjects upon which it shall lie im
posed. The reason for the amount now
due. about $300,000, being greater than
the amount sued for. $235,750, Is ou ac
count of the penalties attached for non
payment of the tax.
Prices of Meat Raised Again.
New York. Sept. 15.—The meat com
blnatioii has made another advance
In prices. Fork has more than doubled
and veal has ndvanc<*d 25 |>er cent.
Loin of pork now costs tin* butchers
13 cents, where formerly It was only
six cents a pound: veal 12 and 13 cents
a pound, while a year ago it was 7
ami 8.
The butchers throughout tin* city
have been compelled, owing to these
advances, to raise veal nnd pork from
2 to 5 cents a pound to consum
ers. Lambs have jumped $1.50 a hun
tired pounds In a week.
There will be a meeting of the dis
tributors of milk nt tin* Consolidated
Milk Exchange to-morrow to raise the
price of milk to 2 : t, cents a quart, an
increase of \\ cent a quart.
Suffered Terribly in the North.
Wrnngel. Alaska. Sept. 10. via Se
attle. Wash.. Sept. 10.—The Htickeen
river steamer Stratlieona arrived to
day with sixty-seven survivors of the
Kdmonton trail. The majority of them
tire without means. They will Is* ship
ped to Puget sound at the expense of
the United States government. About
liftv of them will go to Seattle to
morrow oil the steamer Al-Ki. Many
are suffering from the effects of
scurvy. Their stories of hardship and
suffering endured In their eighteen
months on the trail are In a similar
strain t«* those which have preceded
them. No new fatalities are reported.
It Is thought that at least seventy-five
prospectors are still on the trail. They
will have to come down the Stickeen
in small boats, as the low stage or
water will prevent the Stratlieona
from making another trip this year.

whether there was any prospect of his
going lo Manila to assume command of
the United States army there. General
Miles says: “I cannot tell. There are
no new developments in the matter so
far as I know. Certainly such a mis
sion would be a serious and responsi
ble one. and 1 don't think that anyone
would ask to be sent there. A variety
of complionted problems await solu- i
tion In the Philippines.” Asked If he
would like to go out there and under
take the solution of these problems.
General Miles smiled tranquilly and
replied: "It is a soldier’s duty to go
where he is sent, nnd to do the very
lx*st Ik* can when he gets there.”

General Otis. It is reported at the War
Department, however, that (reueral
Otis’ command will ls» only nominal.
He has outlined a campaign with tin
advice and approval of tlii* Mar De
part men t officials and the I resident,
but Generals Lawton and MncArthur
will be Intrusted with carrying It into
execution with little Interference from
General Otis. They will Ik* told what
is expected of them and be permitted
to execute their orders in their own
way. lH*iug held responsible only for
the results obtained.
The friends of General Otis are »**-
eomtng ho|M»fnl that they will succeed
In having him retained In his present
command. Last week they were
deeplv discouraged, nml one. a high
official of the war department, openly
admitted that he Isdievcd “popular
clamor’* would result In Ids friend’s re
call and the assignment of General
Miles or General Merritt to Manila.
The prediction Is now being confident
ly made by General Otis' admirers
that he will be permitted to demon
strate what he can do with a larger
army before being censured for his
failure to make more progress during
♦he Inst campaign. The President has
repeatedly expressed his confidence in
General Otis, and Secretary Root has
commended his reports for clearness
and conciseness. But the latter official
lias I teen Inclined to the suggestion
that an officer of high rank, the major
general commanding the army l»eiug
preferable, should Ik* placed nt the
head of the fighting forces. Secretary
Root has viewed the situation from an
unprejudiced standpoint, and his rec
ommendations were placed upon Gen
eral Otis’ ability as a soldier. He has
taken the broad ground that where the
army Is there also should Im* the
ranking officers. He Is opposed to the
pro|M)sitlon to |H*rmit the major general

In an Interview W. R. Merrlam, dl
j rector of the census, sni<l In reference
Ito the appointment of the enumer
ators: “Our next great undertaking
| and any branch of a work which - must
' reach every nook nnd corner, fnrm nnd
cabin in the United States is great -is
1 that of selecting about 5.000 enumer
ators for taking the twelfth census.
We are trying strenuously to prepare
for n complete nnd reasonably perfect
census. The burden of the work of
j gathering the materials for It. however,
will fall on the enumerators. “In any
important llue of private business pre
liminary training Is required of those
charged with conducting its details.
Lawyers and doctors study before they
practice their professions, and mechan
ics are required to serve thorough ap
prenticeships lM*fore asking for Jour
neymen's work or wages. So. In my
view, those who desire to act as cen
sus enumerators should take up the
study of census laws, schedules nnd
statistics, thus familiarizing them
selves. as far as possible, with the de
tails of the work. In this way they
will lie prepared on the Ist of June
next, like a great and well-drilled
army, to begin their labors understand-
Ingly and harmoniously from ocean to
ocean, without after that day requir
ing further orders or Instructions.
While I shall not undertake to select
enumerators without consulting with
the proper census supervisor ns to the
qualifications nnd experience of appli
cants, I would like to suggest that all
candidates adopt the course I have in
dicated nnd thus help to Insure at the
threshold of the twentieth century the
most perfect census 111 the history of
the republic.”
