picked up on the streets of Dill
Ion, signed by John Taylor, presi-
dent of the Mormon church. instruct
ing Hendricks to have the Mormon vote
cast solid for Maginnis. In carrying
out these instructions, Hendricks held
up his trembling hand and swore that
he was legal votor, Notwithstanding
that he was q resident of Richmond.
Utah, and voted and also voted his men
for Maginnis. Eighty-seven Mormons
thus swore in their votes at Dillon alone,
while in all Maginnis received about five
hundred Mormon votes along the line of
tho Utah Northern. Hendricks, with
others, was indicted by the grand Jury
at Deer Lodge for illegal voting and per-
jury, but they were so shielded in every

Customs inspectors w. Is. Jacklin and
William and Frank Woodley.
The inspectors had been out on a
cruise since Sunday with steam launch.
This afternoon about o'clock they
sighted sloop near Port Hadlock, aud
at once bore down upon her. The
sloop was 800 yards ahead of
them, and as soon as she
touched land two white men
jumped ashore and ran into the woods.
The Woodlcy boys spent an hour look
ing for them without success. Jacklin
boarded the sloop and found twenty Chi
nese lying in the hold. They were
packed away like sardines and it
is mystery how they were put into the
little craft, which is less than four tons
burden.
Wong Sing seemed to have charge of
the party, and offered the customs Off.
cials 5000 cash to let them land safely.
They were brought here this evening
and searched at theeustom house. Wong
Sing was the only one who had

them over, and will now have to be sent
back at the expense of our government.
One of the captured band told an in
terpreter that they had boarded the sloop
Monday night, and were to pay $40 each
to be landed here safely. The money
was to be paid in Victoria on the pres

TAE LABOR SITUATION.
Union Pacific switchmen at Dsnve,
Cut On q strike.

DENVER, Sept. 2.-For some time the
Union Pacific at this point has been
having trouble with the switchmen.
The blockade in the yards has been q
matter OF serious dstrir,ent. 1t Is as.
serted that one of the chief difficulties
has been the disposition on the part OF
the switchmen to keep the yards
blocked In order to exact "tips' from
the shippers. Several days ago the
switchmen's grievance committee de-
manded the removal OF Assistant Super
intendent Burns, making several charges
against him. Burns was suspend ed
pending an investiga ton; but, the
charges being disproved. General SUPER
intendent Meek to-day reinstated him
and notified the men of the trouble that
had been complained of, and that men
unwilling to work cordially with Burns
must leave the service of the company to-
day noon.
At O'Clock this afternoon not one OF
