To Compel Operation.

HELENA, Mont, April 20 Proceed
iugs were begun In the supreme court yes
terday in the name of the attorney gen.
eral to compel the Great Northern rail-
road to operate its lines within Mon
tapa. A petition was filed which sets
forth the organization of the road and
recites that on April 10 last, In viola
ton of Its duty to the people of the
state, and in disregard of its obligation
assumed in the acceptance of its fran
chise, 1t has wholly ceased to operate
any of its lines. within the state, and
still refuses to do so, or carry any
freight or passengers, or to accept
either for transportation, and has Who'll
ly abandoned operation; that 1t Is fully
able to operate and run its trainsi that
1t has abundant means to do so, and that
there are at all points along It's line
within the state a sufficient number of
competent and skilled men who can be
engaged to do so at reasonable wages,
and at less wages than are paid to SINH
lar employees upon any other lines IN
Montana; that the counties in the
northern part of the state are almost
entirely dependent upon the Great
Northern for transportation facilities,
and that the neglect of the road to run
trains has already resulted in great
loss to the inhabitants. Wherefore, the
attorney general asks the court for an
order upon the company, commanding
1t to appear and show cause why writ
should not be issued commanding the
road to operate It's lines within the state
in the same manner as they were oper-
ated prior to April l3.
These proceedings will be followed
by an application to have the charter
of the road forfeited within on account
of failure TO operate the line. The
court has the application under consid
Grafton.
There is no change in the attitude Of
the strikers In Montana. They are
daily encouraged by meetings of boards
of trades and labor organizations t.
stand firm. The drift of sentiment |.
that defeat of the strikers would be the
beginning of the end of organized labol
In the state. No indications Of breal
in the ranks are seen.

Stabbed by His Partner.

WALLA WALLA, April 2s.--Hugh Nc
Elroy was dangerously stabbed yester-
day by his partner, John Ainsley. Dur
ing the past three weeks the two men
have been travelling through the coun-
try In search of work, and during this
time were accompanied by another
man, whose name is not known. The
three men were camped in the north
west part of town. McElroy and AIMS
ley became engaged In discussion over
the cooking. Suddenly the latter drew
large pocketknife and stabbed Nc
Eiroy In the left breast. Ainsley then
turned and fed TO another camp next
to the low hills on the opposite side OF
the city. Physicians discovered that
the knife blade entered McElrov's left
breast, penetrating the lung about four
inches. Ainsley was arrested and
placed under bonds CT $500.

Great Northern Men in the Twin

A NEW INJUNCTION ASKED
Operate the Railrosd-Hilrs Plan
OF Arbitration Refused.

ST. PAUL, April 28.-The conference
of the Great Northern strikers has been
carried on pleasantly with President
Hill, but without the effect of bringing
the differences any nearer together.
Last night everything was closed up In
these Two cities and along the line to the
coast. Brotherhood men, although not
actively joining the strikers, seemed
disinclined to work with non-union men
and feared the possible danger of green
men on the switches.
The A. R. U. refused the offer by
President Hill of his plan of arbitration
and called out the men, who responded.
Attempts to start trains from st. Paul
and St. Cloud with marshals aboard
were of no avail, and the trains were
returned to the roundbouses, the con-
duc.ors being the only employees willing
to continue.
The order to show cause why an In
junction in the case of the Great North
ern railroad against Olsen and others
10 restrain them from interfering by
force, threats or intimidation with In
terstate commerce on the road or those
employed on the road came up in the
United States court today, Judge San
born presiding. B. B. Foster stated
that he had no objection to the issuance
of the injunction. but asked the court
what was the Needing of "intimida-
tion,n which he defined as overawing
by threats of superior TO ce, even
though nothing should be said indicat-
ing that force would be used.

Industrials Captured,

PoRTLA.p, April 2s--The Pacific
freight train, which was stolen by the
Portland contingent of the industrials
today, was captured at Arlington, a
small town about 1870 miles east OF
Portland. A train carrying United
States troops from Fort Walla Walls,
under Colonel Compton, arrived at Ar
lington at 8 l55 p. m. The railroad com
pany had already placed a heavy
freight train on the side track, and the
special train with the troops remained
on the main line, thus effectually block
ing the road and making it impossible
for the approaching train which ar
rived shortly afterward. The indus

glance and surrendered without offer.

Captured . Train.

PORTLAND, April eS.-The Portland
contingent of The Industrial Army cap
tured an engine at Trcutdale today,
and coupling it to a freight train which
they seized yesterday, started east
over the Union Pacific. The engine
seized was drawing the special car of
General Manager Dickinson. A spc-
cial engine in charge of deputy mar
shals was sent to Troutdale, bearing
railroad officials of this city.
When the stolen train reached the
Cascade locks the leader of the Indus
trials informed the company by tele-
graph that they were handling all way
business. The Union Pacific has side
tracked all its trains and left the road
open for the tramp train. Governor
Pennoyer, who is at Ashland today,
where he opened the campaign for the
populist party, refused to call upon the
state militia or United States troops to
arrest the common wealers.
At Bridal Veil Union Pacific epgi-
neer who was taken along was placed
In charge of the engine. United States
Marshal Grady, who spent last night at
Troutdale, Immediately wired Brigadier
Otis at Vancouver to furnish troops to
assist him In arresting the common
wealers. The Union Pacific officials
here we're at once notified and Attorney
General Cotton went before Judge Bel
linger and procured warrant for the
arrest of Sche tller and all the members
of the Industrial Army for violation of
the restraining order issued few days
ago Two engines we're sent to Trout
dale. One was turned over to Marshal
Grady, who, with a warrant, started In
pursuit of the commonwealers. Then
Brigadier General Otis received mes
sage calling for troops. He wired an
order at once to Fort Walla Walla to
intercept the train at Umatilla juno
tion. A special train left Wslla Walla
with l22 men of the Fourth cavalry un-
der Colonel Charles d Compton. The
troops reached Umatllla at 4:10, and as
the Iudustrials had not yet arrived, left
at 80 for Willows. The troops were
instructed TO capture the commonweal-
ers without bloodshed If possible and to
await the coming OF Marshal Grady for
further orders, Their orders were not
to FIRE frst, but If necessary to fire and
shoot to kill.

he had said. Senator Dolph of Oregon
stated that he fully agreed with what
Senator Vest had said but called at
tention to other Objectionable features
of the prea mble to the resolution. No
one denied the right of citizers TO

that 1t was accompanied by lying pre-.
amble, which was In effect censure OF

Senator Gray of Delaware also con-
demned the resolution.
Senator Allen defended his action in
introducing the resolution. He called
these gatherings Spontaneous upris-
ings against wrong and oppression"
1t was, he said, peaceable gathering
of men engaged in peceable project.
"Does the senator apply that to the
army ofthe commonweal which stole the
train from Butte and shot two deputy
marshals and whom troops of the
United States are now trying to cap
ture2'' asked Wolcott.
Senator Allen refused to be drawn in
on this ground. He declared he was
warm advocate of peace and lawful
ness. He criticised the action of the
commissioners of the District of Colum-
bia In issuing a proclamation warning
Coxeys army against entering the
district
At AS, before any action had been
taken on the resolution, Senator Harris
moved TO take up the resolution provid-
ing that tomorrow and until otherwise
ordered the senate shall meet at II

Senators PETER and Allen objected
to the pending resolution being delayed
and demanded an aye and noe vote
The vote, which also showed the att
tude of the senate on Aliens ressolu
tIon, resulted In "a ayes to noes (Allen

um Of Japan.

um Of Japan.
Japan is doing all she can to keep sill
yer In the air. She has to pay for the
goods she imports from America In go d,
and the silver question Is far more
important one there than it has ever
been in the United States. The country
is now on silver basis, and there Is
sure to be general rise in the prices
of everything. At the present writing
the exchar &c is going up every day and
a gold dollar in Toxic looks as big as
the cover of Japanese umbrella. Such
foreigners as are there who get their
incomes from America are rich through
the fall of silver, aud they now get two
dollars for every one that is sent out to
them from home. Clothing is wonder
fully cheap, and all English goods can
be bought for the same prices they bring
in London. The tailors are Chinese
but they give you good cuts and you
do not need to pay if the clothes do not
tit you. You can get a good business
suit of English goods made to order for
about ten American dollars. Patent
leather shoes made to order cost 81 so,
and a fur-lined overcoat with beaver
collar and cuffs can be bought for about
$50 In gold. You could not buy the
cloth, to say nothing of the fur Innings,
for that amount In America. Ladies'
dresses are equally cheap and you get
wonderfully embroidered gowns of silk
crepe for less than the ordinary street
dress costs you In the United States.
The reduction in silver makes won
derful profit for our missionaries and
diplomats. A missionary who is getting
81 900 year has now $1,000 to spend.
The American minister to Japan, who
receives, If my memory serves me,
ST., 900 annually, gets at least 1924 600
worth of value out of it, and the sala-
ries of all of our consuls are practically
doubled by the change. An American
family living on fixed income at home
could now go to Japan and have twice
the comforts half the money.
