Opponents of Free Lead. Coal. Iron

to Unite
In a Concentrated Effort to Secure
Changes in the Wilson Bill in
the Senate.
Some Talk of Il Substitute When the
Wilson Bill Reaches the Up.
per House.

WASHINGTON, Dec. %. The prospects
are that those persons who are opposing
the free raw materials in the Wilson
bill, coal, iron and lead ore, lumber etc.,
will concentrate their efforts to secure
changes in the bill in the senate. Delega-
tions representing these various inter-
ests will be here during the coming week
to begin their work. Democrats, as far
as possible are being delegated to make
these protests. John NJ. Burke Of Idaho,
the advance guard of the lead men, is
here, and will be joined in a few days
by others representing the states Of
Montana, Wyoming, Nevada and the
territory of Utah. Mr.. Burke says that
free lead ore will absolutely paralyze
the mining industry of the states and
territory named. Mr.. Burke was the
Democratic candidate for governor of
Idaho in the last campaign. If the duty
OH lead ore can not be retained. in part
at least. by the Wilson bill. these lead
miners will ask for the restoration of the
duty OF ? cents on pig lead reduced by
the Wilson bill to cent. An effort will
be made on The part Of the representa-
tives Of the several interests to combine
so as to secure concerted action. but
whether combination can be effected
is very uncertain.

AoJaves Slay Mother and Two Babes for
Alleged Witchcraft.
Los ANGELES. Cal. Dec 21.-A hor.
rible story with wild laws and the su-
pers:ition of the Mojave Indians is told
by j. A. Saunders. who arrived from
The Needles, town on the Colorado
river, on the Atlantic and Pacific rail-
way. He had heard the details Just be-
fore he took the train, and they seem to
be corroborated by an account given in
local paper The Eye, which he brought
with him. The Mojave Indian reserva-
ton is about half mile from The
Needles, and the aborigines are virtually
their own masters. having their own
laws and superstitions. From Saunders
account, on Tuesday last triple muir
der was committed. under plea Of a
tradition by the Indian. One of the
prettiest squaws of the tribe, known as
"Loneta," was married, according to
the savage rites, about year ago.
Twins the Onense.
She was conely girl. only IS years
old, and had picked up some education
Her husband was one Of the braves and
apparently very fond Of her. Sunday
last she gave birth to twins. and as a re-
suit a great pow-wow was called. for ac.
cording to the Nojave tradition. the
squaw who has twins is witch and !;
consort of evil spirits. The penalty has
always been death for babies and mother
Loneta's husband was so fond of her
however, that he made strong plea fol
her babies, but it was of no avail. The
medicine man held that the old custom
must be observed. and the two
little ones We're brought for
ward and Drained with a club
Loneta was kept for a
More Trying Ordeal,
which she suffered without complaint
Every one of her personal belonging.
were gathered and put into her shack
and she was ordered inside. She bid hel
! husband farewell and went in. Tht
! entrance was closed. straw aud brusl
were piled around the frail structur,
and fired, and in two hours nothing bu
a few embers remained to tell the tragi.
story. Officers at the Needles learned
the facts too late to interfere. and tn
poor squaw with this horrid torture
passed to the happy hunting grounds
where her ill-starred offspring had pre-
ceded her. -

ENJO1NED.
United States COnrt at st. Paul And
Milwaukee Issue Irjunctional
Orders.
To Restrain Officers. Employees or
Agents From Interfering
With the y. P.
No Strike Declared and Injunction
Said to be PrecautiOnary-COn-
ference Unsatisfactory.

ST. PAUL, Dec. 27.-The United
States courts at st. Paul and Milwaukee,
has issued injunctions restricting all
officers, employees and agents of the road
against interfering in any way by Oh.
structlon, intimidating or otherwise with
the operation of the Northern Pacific.
There has been no strike declared and
it is uncertain whether there would be
one, but receivers had fears one would
follow the final refusal to recognizes wage
reduction and took the matter before the
courts sometime ago. The injunctional
order was issued sometime ago, but was
not served or made public until yester-
day. 1t is said the legal document now
in the hands Of the receivers, comprises
nearly ten thousand words. The issu'
ance of the writ of injunction before the
strike has been regularly declared on,
before some open demonstration of any
intention to strike, is almost if not
quite an unprecedented action on the
part of courts and will doubtless add
another and very interesting chapter to
the solution Ct the labor problem in
volved in the relative rights Of employer,
employed and public. The conference
with General Manager Kendrick yester.
day, was unsatisfactory from the en-
ployes standpoint. Kendrick throws all
the responsibility on the court, and claims
an inability to do anything. Kendrick
further said the injunction was a pre-
cautionary measure and issued as much
to protect employees from outside inter.
ference, as to protect the road.
EMPLOYEES WILL OPPOSE.
MILWAUKEE, Dec 27.-To combat the
injunctional proceedings against them,
the employees of the Northern Pacific
contemplate taking the matter into court
by filing motion before Judge jenkins
to have the old wage schedule continued
in force. They are inclined to obey to
the letter, the order of the court enjoin-
ing them from causing trouble to the
road by striking, but they claim they
should be given an opportunity to pre-.
sent their side to the court. The leaders
are in CONSULTATION with attorneys and
there IS no doubt that they will take the
steps they outline.

1t Was Dated Christmas Day, and Its
Legality Is Doubted.
DENVER, Dec. Ex-Governor Waite's
call for an extra session of the legisla-

Christmas day is legal holiday in this

''Is the call legal and binding:' The
courts will probably be asked to decide
the matter at once.
The Republican calls Governor Waite
fool for calling the legislature together,
and asks that body to adjourn inn
mediately after it assemblies.
