SNOW SLIDES.
Thirty Persons Supposed to Have Been
Killed, and Many Others SerI-
Ously Injured

SALT LAKE, Utah, Feb. Is The relief
party sent to Alta to rescue, if living, and TO
bring back If dead, those who were killed in
the recent snow slide which overwhelmed
that town, returned early this morning.
The relieving party had very trying expe-
rience. In coming down the deep defiles OF
the mountain side, dragging the sleds on
which the bodies were placed, seven up in
blankets, they were beset by deep drifts, and
the whirling particles of snow driven before
the bowling blasts OF winter in the thin
mountain air prlcked like SO many needles.
Fortunately, however, all the brave men
who risked the fatigues aud dangers of the
journey to save the unfortunates
buried beneath the avalanche returned
without having received serious harm.
Twelve bodies were brought down the can
yon in mOurnful procession, single fie,
dashed upon sleds. The first sled bore the
body of Matte Hickey, the next Timothy
Madden. jeremiah Regain, David B. Evans,
James Watson, Barney Gibson and Mrs.
Ford with her baby lssbed to her breast.
The last sled carried the four children OF
Edward Ballou. The following persons re-
ported dead were rescued alive: Andrew
White, after being under the snow twelve
hours, slightly injured; Frederick Culanan,
after being buried sixteen hours, also hurt
but Lot seriously; Mr.. Ksist. in drift six
hours. Besides these, Mr.. Ford, though not
covered by the avalanche was badly hurt.
The body Of one Of the Cinnamon was
not found. Mrs. Ford, it appears,
had a premoEition Of danger, and begged
her husband to take her and tntir child 10 a
p see OF safety that fatal night, saying she
felt shere the avalanche was coming. An
inquest was held to-day and the burials will
occur tomorrow. Mrs. Bsllou, Mrs. Kiest,
wounded; Mrs. Hewitt. Mrs. Johnson and
her four children, and Hans Olson and four
children are still in Alta in constant dan
ger. A retcGe party will 60 out tomorrow

snow. slides IN that neighborhood are of
dsilY occurrence. One occurred last Satur-
day In Superior G1ich, which the survivors
81 Alta feel sure resulted in the death of
Samuel Prescott, ranger, and John White
working there. Two men going there
to see If they were safe, got in sight OF their
cabin and tunnels when they saw the snow
slide start, and in an instant almost the
cabin was oblitsTaten in sea OF snow. The
conclusion of the slide threw them violently
to the ground, and they hurried away for
fear of another slide. It is reported that
man named McDsniels, living sOuth of Alta,
was killed by slide on Friday night. Moth
ing has been seen or beard OF him since. In
The three slides in Alta, all Of which &C.
Cured on Friday, thirty persons have been

A CoNFFssIoN OF CRIME.

The sham Of 1.-THE American system of Or =
lection TO American labor was largely IN
Covered by the debate in the United States
Senate on Friday last, on the bin to prohibit
the importation OF foreign labor under con.
tract. Senator Ingalls,, OF Kansas, radical
Republican and high protectionist, was con-
spicuous IN the discussion. and, whether IN
Willingly or undsr the stress OF stricken con-
science does not matter. volunteered state
ments which are in themselves conviction
of criminal wrong done American wage
workers by the protection system Of the Re-
publican party. Il was upon the bill 10 re-
strict or prohibit the bringing over of foreign
labor that Mr.. Ingalls, was moved 10 declare
that there are 800 GOO workingmen in the
United States in enforced idleness, and that
these, with their dependent women and chill
dren, constitute population OF 5000 600
people, who, in this rigorous winter, are snf-
fering for the necessaries OF life.
This admission, in the peculiar spre misses,
is nothing less thsn an admission that the
idleness of tie e American wage workers is
ch' ely due to the presence in the country OF
imported cheap European labor. It is here.
in that the sham OF the claim that protection
has been in the interest OF American labor
largely consists. In the very hour that East
ern manufacturers have been psrading this
pretense they have been introducing Euro
pesn operatives into their mills. For twenty
years this process has been steadily pursued.
The enlarge ment Of capacity of many New
Ems and cotton mills has often been timed
to give employment to English operatives
arriving under contracts made across the
water. One Of the largest cutlery manufsc-
tories in Connecticut was started by the
management buying out al English mill
and bringing over both the machinery and
operatives-the latter numbering over 2O0
