A MINE-OwNER's STORY.
Says the Strikers Were tho Aggressors,
and Thirteen Men Were Killed.

PORTLAND, July 1l.-[Special. THE fol-
lowing special hss been received by the
OrcJonion from Van b. De Lashmutt, ex-
mayor of Portland and one of the largest
mine-owners in CGur d 'Alene. who is now
at the scene of the miners trouble:
For several days it has been apparent
that serious trouble was brewing here
On Saturday night union men set upon
Bean until his life was endangered. He
is now in the hospital in a critical condi-
ton. On Sunday afternoon three nom
union men were badly beaten by strikers
and sent to a hospital.
This morning at o'clock the strikers
commenced firing from the streets of Gem
at non-union men going to work. One
non-union man was killed. Immediately
the firing became general and lasted three
hours during which five men were killed,
as follows:
JAMES HENvEssEY.
Gus CARLSON
- STANLEY
HARRY CUMMINGs
HENRY BEAN.
Sixteen wounded are now in the hospital
here, among whom are John Nicholson,
John Ward Hugh Campbell. J. w. Gauk-
roge, Sam Peters, George Petybone Many
others wounded are at private resi-
dences and hotels, and / cannot
get the names. The firing ex-
tended to the San Francisco mine
and mill, half mile up the canyon. Two
hours after commencing firing mob on
the hill above the San Francisco mine ran
stick of dynamite in the water pipe to
the Frisco mill and blew the mill to
atoms. The wreck was complete.
IL is not known how many were in the
mill. Unquestionably the explosion killed
many. Eight are thought to have been
killed. The Frisco Company miners
have surrendered. A truce was held
Two men were sent to demand of the
Gems owners that the men lay down
their arms and the miners quit work. The
demand was conceded, the arms stacked
and the men came to Wallace. There
were several hundred striking miners,
many with Winchesters. and only twenty
four guns in the Gem mine. An inquest
is being held. 1t is impossible
to give full list of the men
maltreated after the surrender. and the
town full of men who had been beaten
with clubs and stones. Great confusion
prevails. Under the agreement of sur.
render of the men in the Gem mine
the arms were intrusted to q
committee of two from either side
who endeavored TO remove them To Wal
lace for safe keeping. When opposite the
Granite mill the committee were overpow-
cred and the arms taken by the mob.
The coroner has just passed down the
street with five dead men in a wagon fol-
lowed by about 100 strikers carry
ing Winchesters. and another 100
with side arms. General Curtis, of
Governor Willey's staff. Colonel Hammei
and the sheriff of this county, K. A Cum
ningham, have just wired the governor
that the civil authorities are poweress.

Adlai e. stevenson on Labor Unions.


BLOOMINGTON, Ill.,. July 11.-Five hun
dred employees of the McLain Coal Com
pany, of all nationalities, called upon Mr..
Stevenson to offer congratulations, when a
demonstration was given, regardless
Of party affiliations. Mr.. Radford, of
Pittsburg, made brief speech, reciting
the good feeling existing among the
miners, and expressing gratitude for many
kind acts. Stevenson made brief speech,
expressing gratitude at the cordial rela-
tions existing between the company and
employees, and referring to the fact that
during the time he had been president of
the company no disagreement or misun-
derstanding Of any kind had arisen. He
was gratiied at Radford's remarks. He
had always treated the men with kindness
and justice. and referred to the fact that
during the past twenty years no pay day
had ever passed without each employe
having been paid in full. Though he
and his partners had sometimes
had to borrow money to do it, they had
paid regularly. Stevenson said the
most kindly and cordial feelings
should ever exist between employer
and employees. and that all dis
agreements should be settled either by con-
ference or arbitration. 1t had been his
firm conviction for years that organiza-
tions looking solely to the lettering
of the condition and protection of their
rights are a necessity to wage-earners,
to secure appropriate legislation when
needed, and especially for the manage
ment of industrial enterprises in the
country. The hours of toll should be less
ened, SO that they would give the wage
Garner more time for rest, for self f-improve-
ment and for enjoyment of home and fam
lily. The Stevenson family served the
guests with refreshments, and all went
away happy.

The Pinkertons have charter from congress,
obtained after the war. 1t is probable that the
federation will petition congress to abrogate
that charter, though action in this direction
might await the congressional investigation.

PTTTsBURG July 1.-THE calling out of
the state troops is expected to have the
effect of drawing an immense number of
strangers to Pittsburg. many out of curl
osity, some to ply their vocation of thiev-
ing, and others to incite other manners of
mischief. In order to crcumvent the
latter classes, the superintendent of police
has stationed special officers at railway
depots and instructed them, as well as
other officers on duty. to arrest on sight
all suspicious looking persons who cannot
give satisfactory account Of themselves.

the Carnegie company, this morning, was
not from Homestead, but from the city

property and murdered its watchmen, for
which they must answer to the district at.

Stealings of tho California National
Bank Officers Aggregate S1,2OO,OOO.

SAN DIEGO, Cal, July 1l.-Additional
claims against the estate of the late
J. w. Collins have been presented
to his administrator by Receiver
Paul, of the California National
bank. The claim against his individual
account foots up $3.50, 900, and that against
Dare & Collins $350,000 more. Added to
the previous claim filed the demands
against the estate of Collins aggregate
$3.50, 900. while only $4,000 has been saved
from the wreck of his fortunes with
which to pay them. The individual
accounts of Dare show a balance due
the bank of over 100000 and there
are over $500, 900 worth of straw notes upon
which money has been obtained As
these were handled exclusively by Dare &
Collins, it is presumed they got the money.
If so, the total amount of their specula-
tions aggregates 81, 200, 600.
