IOWA COAL MINERS BEATEN.

raphers Strongly Organized.

Dies MONIES, Ia, June 16.-The Iowa
coal miners strike practically ended to-
day.. The Des Moines miners all returned
at the old prices and under the old condi-
tons 1t is conceded that the failure has
been due to outside competition and the
fact that no united efforts were made in
the state. The eight-hour concession was
secured at Dunreph and Angus without a
strike.
ST. LOUIS, June 16.-At a meeting of the
railway telegraphers this morning the first
business was the reading of the annual re-
port of the grand officers. The report of
the grand chief telegrapher shows that
there has been great activity among
organizers, the membership having been
increased very materially. The secre-
tary's report showed membership of
10000, while the treasury is in an excel
lent condition.
CHICAGO, June 16.-Several hundred men
were added to the ranks of the ornamental
iron workers strikers this morning by 60

molders and fnishers and some black
smiths. One of the bosses has yielded to
the strikers demands, and several others
are expected to do so within few days.

terest is manifested regarding the recent
action of the secretary of the treasury in
the matter of the charges against the chief
of the bureau of engraving, for discharging
seven plate printers, made by members of
the executive committee of the Knights of
Labor. An investigation by Secretary Fos-
ter showed that the men were dropped
from the rolls by his predecessor.
He is of the opinion that it would be
unfair and unwise to reinstate the dis
charged men to their old places and thus
displace the men holding them. How
ever he has promised, in view of the fact
that within the next few weeks a large
number of printers will be required, that
the men within that time should be given
presses. The proposition was rejected by
the Knights of Labor representatives, who
ask that the men be given their old places.

ELLEssBuRs, June i6-TSpecial. THE
Waterviile stage, running between here
and Waterville, was held up this morning
at IL o'clock on the summit Of the noun
tain, about twenty miles distant, by lone
highwayman. He wore black mask to
conceal his features and acted like nov
ice at the business. He carried shotgun
and revolver, and ordered the driver to
throw out the mail sacks He then made
II. c. Carver, the only passenger aboard,
get out and cut the sacks open. He took
all but one, seven in all, of
the registered packages. The one
he left contained nothing valuable. The
amount taken cannot be ascertained until
Waterville is heard from. He took moth
ing from the driver or the passengers.
When this was done he compelled them to
gather up the mail and drive on, watching
them till they disappeared around curve
in the road.
While the robber was looking the mail
over, Driver Hern had his eyes open, and
furnished the officers here a remarkably
minute description of the man, even to the
color of his eyes. 1t was evidently some
one who knew of the registers coming out
on this stage, as there are generally only
two or three. The officers have gone in
pursuit.

Tacoma Labor Troubles.

TACOMA, June 16.-[Special. Some of
the electric motor men are anxious about
an alleged squad of sixteen Portland
motor men who are said to be preparing
to come to this city to work for $50 per
month. Most of the local motor men now
receive $75 per month.
There is possibility of trouble growing
out of the arrangement made by the con-
tractors who are building the exposition
building to compel workmen to take 20
per cent. of their wages in exposition
stock The contractors agreed to take
part of their pay in stock. The building
must be completed by September. The
bulk of the union men refuse to take part
of their pay in stock.

No Information for Newspapers.

TACOMA. June 49, Especial. l-One of the
immediate results of the visit of General
Manager Mellen, of the Northern Pacific,
to this city, is the announcement by the
local freight department that hereafter
the shipments of freight by that company
will not be offered for publication by local
newspapers. In fact. no information re-
garding the freight business of the COM
pany at Tacoma is to be made public prop
erty. Employees of the freight department
were given to understand today that Agent
Garfield had been reprimanded ior allow
ing the newspapers to print daily the lists
of freight forwarded and received. 1t is
taken for granted that this action of the
Northern Pacific is for the purpose of
cutting off sources of information now
sought after by possible rivals for Sound

SHELTON, June 16.-[Special. THE town
clerk has just completed summing up the
assessed valuation of the town of Shelton.
which amounts to $237 ,075 on a rather low
assessment; real property, sizes. S.OO6; per-
sonal. s69,069. 1t is not probable that
more than 10 mills will be levied this year.
A meeting was held last Saturday to
open up the matter of having a big joint
celebration on Shelton prairie on the
Fourth. Union City will cooperate.
A call has been issued to vote on the
question of bonding Shelton for $4,000 to
put in water-works system. The matter
was settled favorably under the old incor-
poration, but this election is called TO
legalize the bonds.
The camps will probably shut down
rather early this year, owing to the dull
season, and give the loggers a long

Alleged slayers OF Hunt Arraisned.

WALLA WALLA, June 16.-[Special i
The soldiers charged with killing Hunt
were arraigned again today, it being the
day set for them to make their pleas.
Their attorneys, Messrs. Thomas HI. Brents
and George F. Thompson, Immediately
moved to set aside the information on the
ground that at no time since the fl
ing of the first indictment had the
defendants been residents of Walla
Walla county, but of the United States.
They also disputed the legality of Prose
cutting Attorney Blanford's tenure of office
on the ground that he has not been adj
mitted to practice in the supreme court, as
required by the statutes. They also OBJ
jected to the complaint, because the names
of all the witnesses examined by the
grand jury were not indorsed on
it. The motion was overruled, and the
attorneys filed a special plea to the
effect that the defendants were citizens of
the United States, and not of the state of
Washington, and further, that no time
since the quashing of the last indictment
had they been before committing magis-
trate for preliminary hearing.
Tomorrow morning the soldiers will be
brought up to make plea to the informa-
ton. and the case will go to trial if jury
can be secured, which is thought by the
attorney to be hard task.

Lynchers After an Oregon Monster.

PORTLAND, June is. = Especial - The
Portland police are securing the city for a
man named John Fitch, who is here in
hiding for fear that he will be lynched by
the irate citizens of Smockville, small
village near Hillsboro. Fitch has for two
months compelled his little 9-year-old
girl to submit to continued criminal as
saults. Mrs. Fitch, who is in poor health,
was away from home all this time When
the inhuman crime became known Fitch
was arrested and taken to Hillsboro,
where justice held him to answer to the
grand jury under bonds in the sum of $3.50.
The money was furnished by an acquaint-
ance. When Fitch obtained his liberty
and the community became apprised of
his crime, their indignation rose to so
high pitch that he was forced to fly for
safety. He accordingly came to Portland.
and his bondsmen and the police are
looking for him. The little girl is being
cared for by friends.

ELDER GIRARD is LOUIS MADAM.
He Is Prominent in Church Circles
When Not in Jail.

TACOMA, June is. - Especial. 1T is
known to certain people in this city that
the true name of Elder" Girard, who was
convicted at Seattle yesterday for opium
smuggling, is Louis McAdam, formerly an
employe at Vanvalkenberg's store at Vic
toria. He was formerly a prominent
young churchman of Victoria, but subse-
quently, in 1888, forged Vanvalkenbergs
name to a couple of checks for small
amounts and was imprisoned for two
years. Then he went to Seattle and at
tended various Methodist churches. His
wife was very comely California lady,
whom it is said left McAdam after he went
to the bad. McAdam is considered odd
and sometimes strange in his actions.
