came from the vicinity where the Corpo-
RAILS Guard was detailed to protect John
Partit, the labor boss, who is sheltering a
dozen men who intend to 90 to work in

THE FRICK COMPANY ARRAIGNED.
PITTsBURG, April 5.-Secretary Watch
orn of the United Mine Workers,
severely arraigns the Frick Company in
an answer made to the charges Of II. G.
trlck. Watchorn denies that he made
false statements in regard to the men, and
defends them for choosing leaders from
their own ranks. He said he was not to
blame for the shooting, but has argued
against all violence.
In proving his charges that the Fricl1
Company imported men, he gives the
sworn statements of several coke-region
miners.
Secretary Watchorn bitterly attacks
F'rick for abusing the ''unruly for
eigners," charging that he (Frick) not
only imported them, but shipped hun
dreds from the dumping ground' at
Castle Garden, and there is still line of
communication between the Frick office
and Hungarians at home.

is the general opinion that Frick has

LOUISVILLE, April 5.-The Louisville
Public Warehouse Company has brought
suit TO secure an Interpretation of the
clause in the Mckinley bill under which
reimported whisky is taxed. At present
the tax Is paid on the quantity of Whisky
in the barrel at the time it is entered for
importation. The clause in the MCKINLEY
bill says any import withdrawn from the
bonded warehouse shall pay duty only for
the weight at the time of wiihd rawal.
But whisky pays by the gauge, and not
by weight, and the question is whether
being so reckoned, it will come under tho
laws referred to. As whisky usually
loses several gallons while lying i'm the
Government warehouse, the difference
will save several hundred thousand dol
lars annually for the importers.
