The Striking Miners at Weir City. Kas.,
Warned by the eSheriff-Foreigners Manu-
featuring Dynamite Bombs.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-. July 24.-The
situation at the mines at Weir City and
Pittsburgh, Kas., is more hopeful for
the operators and consequently more
gloomy for the miners than at any
time since the strike began. Yester-
day shaft No 81 at Weir City started
up. The non-union miners were pro-
tected by force of deputy sheriffs.
Shaft No. Is was started this morning.
The sheriff made an address to the
strikers. He told them that he was
under orders from the governor to
keep the peace and protect the men
who are working, and that he would
certainly obey. He also said that if he
found that he did not have and could
not obtain a sufficient number Of depu-
ties to protect the non-union men he
would call upon the governor for
troops. There are, he said, 500
military stationed within three hours
ride on the cars from Weir City. If
brought there they would soon deci-
mate the ranks of the strikers. In con-
clusion the sheriff said the only thing
that now causes him to apprehend
further trouble is the fact that foreign
ers in Weir City are manufacturing
dynamite bombs.

Vol Answorth, George w. Dant. w. f.
uovert and Frances sasse Presented for
tine Murder of the Twenty-Three VIC
inns OF tho Ford's Threaten Collapse in
June, by the Grand Jury of the District
OF Columbia,
WASHINGTON, July 25.-The grand
jury found true bill against Col. Fred
T. Alnsworth, chief of the record and
pension division of the war depart
ment; George W. Dant, the contractor
employed to make the excavation for
the electric-light plant; William E.
Covert, superintendent, and Francis
Sasse, engineer of the building, holding
them responsible for the Ford's old
theater disaster of June 0 last, in
which twenty-three persons lost their
lives and large numb of others were
injured.
The Indictment sets forth the crea-
tion and organization of the record
and pension division of the war de-
partment under an act of congress and
the appointment by the president of
frederick c. Ainsworth, a captain and
assistant surgeon in the army, as the
head of the division, with the rank
OF colonel, and that he was given
charge of Ford's old thcater
building and of the persons
employed in it, and was also in charge
on the 9th of June when portions of
the second and third floors of the build
ing fell.
The indictment describes in detail the
excavations that were in progress for
the purpose of putting in an electric
hight plant at the time of the accident,
and AYERS that Frederick G. Aims
worth, George w. Dant, William
Il. Covert and Francis Sasse under
took the performance Of this work, and,
being wholly unmindful Of their duty,
removed the earth supporting the pier
without having first caused the pier to
be relieved, by snoring, from the great
pressure upon it of the weight of iron
columns, iron beams, cross beams and
parts of the floors Immediately above
1t. By reason of this most culpable
| negligence the pier sank and broke,
precipitating parts of the second and
third floors with their occupants to
the ground. The grand jury then for
| mally finds that in the manner de-
| scribed in the indictment the accused
| did wilfully kill and slay the persons
| whose death is under investigation.
| 1t is understood that Col. Ainsworth
and the other defendants will not be
J Il raigned for some days yet, as their
trial can not take place before the Sep
Der term of court.
