NO HELP BUT law.
The Cripple Greek Trouble is
Beyond Arbitration,
And the Grand Jury Will Take
a Hand.
il THE WORST COMES
The Railway Men Will Help the
Miners Out.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Col, June l.
The authorities have notified the
mine owners who have property at
Cripple Creek that the trouble in that
district has gone entirely beyond the
question of wages or of arbitration of
wages 1t is now, they state, entirely
one putting of down the lawless-
ness and instruction existing
in the district, and this they
propose to make an effort to do. For
this purpose special session of the
grand jury has been called and the
Cripple Creek cases will at once be
taken up. People who live and do
business in Cripple Creek are coming
to Colorado Springs in large mum bers,
as they state they no longer dare re-
main at their homes The majority
have been ordered to leave by the
striking miners. They tell stories of
outrageous treatment and of innumer-
able threats by the strikers
New complications are threatened,
as for the past twenty-four hours rep
resentatives of the railway conduc--
tors, engineers and firemen have been
in consultation with the strikers at
Altman. 1t is thought the trainmen
may refuse to run trains carrying
arms, ammunition and reinforcem ents
to the deputies. Such a step would
i1nmeasurably strengthen the strik-
erS. as the Work OF maSSlng deputies
would be slow and difficult.
The miners have great faith in Gov
ernor Waite being able to adjust the
matters with the mine owners so that
work can start up on all idle proper
ties by the first of the week at the
latest. They are greatly put out that
his excellency has been delayed IN
his journey to Colorado Springs by
washouts. The governor and his par
ty are weather bound near McCOurt
camp The governor is greatly disap-
pointed, as he fears the deputies will
make an advance.
General Johnson, who commands
the strikers forces, served with Cap
tain Zalinslxi in the United States
army, and it is said his knowledge of
the principles of the Zalinski dyna-
mite guns has enabled him to con-
struct a dangerous weapon, which
will be used against the deputies. 1t
can throw dynamite several hundred
feet.

citizens of Leavenworth are at last
aroused to action, and at a public
meeting held yesterday afternoon re
solved to protect every miner anxious

citizens was called at the council
chamber. 1t was very largely attend
ed Judge L. NJ. Hacker was the
chairman and D. r. Anthony, jr., sec
rotary. A committee from the North

protect them, as they were anxious to
work and had nothing in common with
the outside strikers

prOtecIlon To every miner VINO desired
to work. Speeches were made by a
number of citizens and all were unan-
imous in expression of making use of
any lawful measure to give security
to every citizen in his desire TO pursue

that all citizens should GO at an early
hour in the morning to the coal shaft
and prevent home miners from being

IL viii be Difficult to Obtain a Majority

WASHINGTON, June Colonel Ii.
L. Moore of Lawrence, who is con-
testing Funston's seat in congress, is
having no end of trouble. Several of
the Democrats have kicked clear out
of harness and his friends on the com
mittee fear that it will be difficult to
obtain majority report. Paynter of
Kentucky, has espo9sed Funston's
side of the controversy, and several
of the other Democrats are lukewarm
in Aoore's support. This is especially
true of Democrats who have Populists
to fear in their districts and look with
disfavor on the fusion deal
Another effort will be made to get
a favorable report on Colonel Moore's
case Tuesday. Before it can be done,
however, it will be necessary to salts
fly the opposition to Moore in the Dem
Ocratic ranks.

CAPRIvHs SUCCESSOR.
Prince Won Hoheniohe's Appointment to
BE Announced Today.

BERLIN, Oct. 90. lit is expected that
tho appointment OF Prince Won Hohen-
lohe as imperial German chancellor to
succeed Count Won Caprivi will be gazet-
ted today 1t is also expected that the ga
zette will contain the announcement that
Herr Won Koeller, under secretary of the
interior for the province of Alsace- Lor-
raine, has been appointed Prussian min
lister of the interior, vice Count Botho zu
Gutenberg, who held that Office in addi-
ton to being president Of the Prussian
ministerial council.
Both Prince yon Hohenlohe and Herr
Won Koeller accompanied the emperor and
empress to Berlin from Potsdam They
spent Sunday in tho city, and the foul
returned together to Potsdam last even
ing They dined and spent last evening
at the new palace in Potsdam and will
return to Berlin today, when Herr Won
Koeller will probably enter upon his du-
ties as the minister Of the interior
As the political position clarifies the re-
tirement Of Count Won Capriyi from the
ohancellorship assumes still further the
character of an actual dismissal The
trouble appears to have originated In the
emperor's reception recently Of a deputa-
tion Of east Prussian agrarians, headed
by Count zu Gutenberg. The population
was submissive. but the agrarian organs
used the reception as proof that the en-
peror was favorable to Count zu Eulen-
berg.
The latter appearing TO be determined
TO remain in office, Count Won Caprivi
submitted a memorandum to the emperor
on Tuesday Offering to resign If Count zu
Gutenberg remained in office. Being
forced to choose between the two, the en-
peror as known, gave his unqualified APP
prevail to Count Won Caprivi's policy.
Thereupon as a setoif to the emperor s
reception of the agrarians the article in
the Cologne Gazette attacking Count zu
Gutenberg appeared. Count "a Eulen-
berg resigned on Friday morning. The
emperor sent Herr Won Lucanus chief OF
the civil cabinet, to ask Count Won Ca.
priv whether he had inspired the article
in The Gazette. Count Won Caprivi re
| piled in the negative, but expressed his
sympathy with that papers views. The
emperor then summoned Count Won Ca
| priv and demanded a public disapproyal Of
| the article Count Won Caprivi repeated
| that he had not inspired tho article and
| would not publish a disclaimer because
l he agreed with its views. He now had M
| alternative but to resign, which no did
1t Is now known as a fact that the en-
/ peror tried to reconcile the personal diff
ference between the two men, but failed
