NEW YORK, August 4.-The Republi-
can National League has issued call to
every Republican club in the United
States to meet at 7.3O o'clock on the ev-
ening Of August 16 and organize march
ing campaign club before adjourning.
Each club is requested to invite all Re-

the membership of the marching club.
Clubs should be organized with 100 mem
bers each. 1t is especially urged that
ssfirst voters clubs'' and boys clubs
should be organized in every community
where it is possible.
Much novelty in the organization of
clubs will characterize this campaign.
This will be accomplished by forming BIZ
cycle clubs, cavalry clubs and clubs of
workingmen employed by new indus
tries established under the Mckinley
law. In some portions of the country
ladies will organize cavalcades of horse
back clubs as in the campaign of 1910.

held at Buffalo, N. Y, September l.,
should be attended by many clubs in
uniform, and prize is offered of stand

Died of Hydrophobia.

LYNN, Mass, August 4.-Patrick Far
rell, so years of age of Swampscott. died
of hydrophobia this morning. He was
bitten by rabid hound May 13, on the
chin. Symptoms of the disease devel-
oped Monday and he then entered the
hospital. Beyond slight throat spasms
and an aversion to water the case did not
tally with those best krown and de-
scribed in medical works. His death
was not violent This is the second
death in Lynn from this disease since
the Pranker dog ran amuck through
Lynn, May 18th, biting no less than Is
persons.

The Yellowstone Park Investigation.

WASHINGTON, August 4.-The minori-
ty of the House committee on public
lands today submitted their views on the
Yellowstone Park investigation. In the
report they take the ground that Secre-
tary Noble acted with fairness and JUS
tice in annulling the transportation
leases, and that Mr.. Gibson acted in a
false and deceitful manner in his rela-
tions with the Secretary. A most bitter
attack is made on Mr.. Gibson by the mi
nority. Russell Harrison's connection
with the company is defended in strong
terms. Referring to it, the minority ac-
cuse the majority of going out of its
way in what it characterizes an attempt
to smirch the son of the President.

A DETECTIVE STORY,
Pinkertons Tell How They Have Been
Treated by Strikers.

WASHINGTON, August 4.-William A.
Pinkerton and Robert A. Pinkerton have
sent statement to the Judiciary COM
mittee of the House of Representatives,
as an answer to the charges of Mr.. Pow
derly and Senator Vest concerning the
alleged outrages of Pinkerton men upon
workingmen in strikes of recent occur
renee. Incidents of the New York Cen
tral strike, the Chicago, Burlington d
Quincy strike, and the strike on the
Denver & Rio Grande railroad are cited.
In nearly every case the responsibility is
laid by the statement of the Pinkertons
at the door of the strikers themselves.
The statement concludes:
'sThe instances we have referred to are
only few samples of hundreds of crimes
committed by members of these secret
organizations to aid their strikes or to
revenge themselves upon their employ
ers for not submitting to the terms and
dictations of their employees. 1t is un-
doubtedly true that the great majority
of the members of these secret organiza-
tions are law-abiding and respectable,
and that small minority only partici-
pate in these crimes. But if the labor
organizations are honestly sincere in
their expressions of a desire to uphold
law and order and to protect property,
they could readily discipline and control
the guilty ones, and we would no longer
witness the fearful scenes that attend
nearly all strikes, that are such dis
grace to labor and to this country. In
stead of being condemned, the outrages
so committed are virtually applauded,
and the criminals, if caught and indicted
are glorified as martyrs in the cause OF
labor.
Notwithstanding the protestations OF
the leaders at Homestead, no reasonable
man can for moment doubt that if the
troops and deputy sheriffs were with
drawn the non-union men now working
in the mills would be murdered, and foI
no offence, no wrong, no injury to any
one. The only grievance is that these
non-union men are anxious to honestly
earn their living in employments ana
upon terms entirely satisfactory to them,
but which the strikers have seen fit to
reject or to spurn."

FIGHTING IN NORTH IDAHO
Mines and Mills Blown Sky High With
Giant Powder.
Non. Union Men Forced to Leave United
States Troops and Idaho Militia
Called to the Grounds.

Wallace, Ida, July 1.-THE
strained situation in the Ceur
d'Alene labor troubles eliminated
this morning between 5 and
o'clock. The Gem and Frisco non
union mines were guarded by men
behind barricades, armed with
Winchesters. This morning a
miner from Gem started for Burke,
and when opposite the Frisco
mine he was fred upon.
Soon the union miners in
the town gathered with arms.
They marched in a body toward
the Frisco mills. When scarcely
within rifle range volley from the
mine greeted them. They scatter.
ed and a regular battle ensued.
One miner and one non-union man
was killed and perhaps six wound
cd during the engagement.
The miners in the meantime
Maded Union Pacific car with
100 pounds of giant powder, and
sent it down the track toward the
Frisco mine. Directly in front of
the mill an explosion occurred,
SCATTERING the mill and
MAKIND 1T A COMPLETE WRECK.
The non-union men then showed
viii te flag and surrendered.
They were marched to the Miners
Union hall and guarded. No
indignites were offered after the
surrender.
While the fight was going on at
the Frisco the Gem guards sudden
ly began firing volley after volley
into the town of Gem, Kidding the
buildings with bullets. John Ward
was wounded in one arm, and Gus
Carlson, union miner, was killed.
Attempts to redover Carison's BODY
were met with volley, and when
the body was recovered an hour
afterward he was dead.
AT s o'clock truce occurred,
and the sheriff, district attorney
and a deputy United States
marshal appearing on the scene,
peace negotiations were immediate
ly set on foot, and a truce declared
the end. At II o'clock the mine
force surrendered to the union men.
The number killed SO far as
learned is four and about ten
wounded. 1t is thought there may |
he some bodies under the Frisco |
mill.
PRISONERS RELEASED.
Wallace, Ida, July 11.-At 4
O'Clock this afternoon about 800 |
miners from Gem, SO ofwhom were
armed with rifles marched down |
to Wallace. They brought with
them their prisoners, Honsisting OF
about one hundred non-union men
and five dead bodies, another man,
James Hennessey, lately of Butte. |

the arrival here the "scabs" wer,

said: eve feel justified in our
course. These mines are public
institutions. They owe duty to
the public. We are the public
here; the duty owed us is fair deal
ing. If capitalists had right to
discharge men like us who have
opened up their works and made
their money for them, soon the
worst system of slavery imaginable
would prevail"
At the recital of their troubles
the men grew almost frantic. One
man sat down with his face in his
hands, claiming that these scabs
had come in here to take means of
living from us. "How long before
they will steal our wives and
daughters?" At this remark a
look came over the faces of the
men that BODIED no good to the
mine-owners or Governor Wiley.
At 8 o'clock tonight this
great property, together with all
the other great mines in the CGur
d'Alenes, the Gem, the Frisco, Poor
man, Sierra Nevada, Union was in
the hands of the 1000 or more
strikers.
THE MINERS FELT THEIR STRENGTH
and flushed from their victory at
the Gem, and Infatuated by the
loss of comrades and the sight of
the wounded, cut and bruised
brothers who mingled with them
Sheriff Cunningham was present.
This eccentric official, be it said to
his credit, was thoroughly sober
and awake to a realization of the
fact that he could not get posse
of half a dozen in the whole Ceur
d'Alenes to help him assert the
dignity of the law. The strikers
seldom looked at him as he passed
on the street.
At 8 o'clock the street are
crowded and the Union Pacific
depot filled with armed men.
Wardner is thoroughly at the
mercy of the union forces. Presi-
dent O'Brien is managing his army |
with the dexterity Of an old cam
paigner. 1t was estimated that |
fully 1900 men are now distrib.
atsd in advantageous position to
repel any attack that may be made
oy the state or federal authorities.
President O'Brien was seen to-
light and was aked for an express
sion of his views on the matter.
President O'Brien carried a Win
chester and spoke deliberately. He
gave no sign of the responsibility
If the command of his army of
when the troops arrive will
'ou submit, Mr.. O'Brien?" was
lsked.
"That is hard question to an
wer," was the reply.
"What do you know of powder
n the mill?"
IL know nothing"
