MANAGER SMITHS STATEMENT.
He Denies That the Corporation VIII In
lure Seattle Trade.

Manager C. J. Smith, of the Oregon Improve
ment Company, when seen yesterday. said he
could add but little TO that which had already
been said IN yesterdays paper by Mr.. Williams
and himself.
al notice one or two statements made by rep
reseniatives OF labor unions that are not in
strict accordance with the facts said Mr..
smith, "and which think possibly had better
notice, as it seems To be an appeal TO the COM
mercial sentiment OF Seattle. The statements
are as follows: This win bc a bad thing for the
commercial interest OF the cities on the
Sound. At present miners buy chief
" from outside stores, but the sign
iur of their contract, which these men will
do doubt be compelled to do now, will force
them to trade st the companys stores. The
company has its goods shipped from san Fran
cisco and other outside cities. so the result is
aaparent-' Ny reply 20 this would be there is
nothing now and nothing in the contract
offered requiring miners 10 purchase goods from
the company's stores. The company buys over
% per cent of its goods at Seattle, and so far
from being detriment TO the commercial in
terests OF the Sound towns and OF Seattle
especially, IL will be very large benefit, as We
hope 10 keep in steady employment about SEQ
men, whose wants viii be almost entirely sup
piled at Seattle, instead of about 100 in unsteady
employment as heretofore.

anxiety and reluctance that the company made
the move il did. II has been a source of heavy
expense and constant anxiety from the CON-
meneemept OF II, and these very facts are an
answer TO the idea that it WAS undertaken with
out feeling of absolute necessity. No company
or employer OF labor engages in such enterprises
for the mere qualification OF making changes.
at has been alleged that though the men fig
ure on s. per dice job they only realize an av-

alt is glorious condition of affairs when
there is no law to protect the American laborer,

many of our lawmakers have said when
the workingmen have asked for the passage

fully demonstrated by our Legislature at the last
session. This act of the Oregon Improvement
Company, If tolerated by the people OF the state,

LATEST FROM FRANKLIN.
The Town Looks as Though Invaded by
n Hostile ARMY.

FRANKLIN, May 17.-fSpecial. 1.-The town to
night Is like place occupied by hostile invad
ing army. The white residents are like the
natives of captured city, the guards
and their black cohorts answering to the captors.
Sentries have been set at all strategic points,
not only the guards with their Winchesters but
the negroes with their carabines being
employed on this service. From one end of the
town to the other, from the mountain side
above the houses to the river
bank, every piece of the compauy's
property is carefully protected under military
rules, and every passerby on forbidden ground
is greeted with the stern cry, "Who goes there?"
while the rattle of rifle as it
is grounded breaks the stiffness. The town is
in possession of the guards, and the only places
where the people can pass unchallenged is
in the county road and the narrow
passages left for the people to go from one part
OF the town to the other. The popularity of the
situation is that no open resistance of
any kind is met by the invaders
Resistance is confined to creating dissatisfac-
ton in the ranks of the black army. How
far this has been successful viii be proved
tomorrow, when it viii be seen whether or not
the negroes will begin to break away, either
deserving the camp altogether or going
over to the opposing force. Then
also the loyalty of the negroes to Mr. Corey
will be tested as they will be called
upon to sign the contract and begin
work. Events will show whether General
Corey's ranks are unbroken, or whether the
cunning words of the white emissaries have
caused disafection. A few hours will tell the
tale.

Indignation Expressed on the Street,
and at Cnion Meetings.

and at Union Meetings.
The principal topic for discussion among
workingmen in the city yesterday wherever
three or four of them came together was the
coal mine trouble. special meeting OF the
Western Central Labor Union was called for the
afternoon, but owing to the shortness OF tho
time notice could not be sent to all the delegates
and therefore only few OF them were present.
The few delegates present INDUCED in
general review of the situa-
ton, but inasmuch as there were
SO few present, it was thought best to
take no action until tonight, when another
meeting will be held, at which an effort Is to be
made TO have full attendance. Several of the
delegates expressed fear that violence might
be resorted TO, aud all agreed that too much
caution could not be taken TO prevent repeti-
: ton Of the scenes which have taken place else
where as the outcome of such situations, and
the secretary was instructed to communicate
with the men in the various mining camps,
counseling them against becoming excited.
At the open meeting of the Knights of Labor
the question was referred to in general way by
nearly all the speakers, illustrating the ncces.
sity for the enactment of laws in the interest of
labor, especially one to prevent the employment
OF Plnkerton men as armed force for the IN
umicat.on of workingmcn
Down in the railroad yards the railway en-
pioyes would congregate in little groups and
discuss the subject in under tones, but when
opinion they had nothing to say beyond a re-
cital of what had been reported by the train
men who had come in from the scene OF the
difficulty.
Late In the afternoon q miner came in from
Franklin and reported that the company was
erecting high board fence around the mines
and that no one was to be allowed inside this
fence under penalty OF being shot; that the
houses of seven or eight families were inside the
enclosure, and those families would therefore
be prevented from passing in or out; that a num-
Der of the negroes were drunk, and that it was
necessary to have the sheriff send out a deputy
to protect the miners AID keep the peace.
Sheriff Woolery sent out Deputy Ben Stretch to
inquire into the situation, with power to act.
The Knights said that nothing had been heard
from Newcastle since the men quit on Saturday.
The Chamber of Commerce will be asked to-
day to take the part of the miners in the trouble.
The importation of the black men was the
principal topic of conversation all over the city
yesterday. The company was roundly con-
demned by a great many, while others, who
openly admitted their hostility to labor organ
izations, said they thought the company had
done exactly right in the premises. Many Others
are waiting TO learn the whole story before
forming opinions or expressing them.

MYSTERY OF MILLER's MURDER.
Robbery Was Not the Object of the
Malicious Deed.

Los ANGELES, May 1.-THE murder of George
W. Miller, proprietor of the Carlton saloon and
lodging house, Saturday night is shrouded in
mystery. An investigation indicates that rob-
berry was not the object, was at
first supposed, as the papers and other articles
on his person were undisturbcd. The place
where the murder occurred was in the back
room of the saloon, separated only by thin
board partition from another room in which
party of men were playing cards. 1t is believed
that the murderer came in the back way OF the
saloon and rctreated by the same route after
completing his bloody work. The autopsy held
today shows two wounds on the left side OF the
head, evidently inflicted with hammer.
