The subcommittee charged with the duty
of Investigating Judge Jenkins action In en-
joining Northern Pacific employees from strk-
ing has submitted Its report TO the judiciary
committee. The report says In part: "Your
committee has no hesitation In declaring that
the orders rendered were gross abuse of the
power Of the court; were supported neither
by reason nor authority; were beyond the
Jurisdiction of the judge, and were therefore
void. The second or supplementary writ was
more reprchensible that the first, because the
judge was advised before he rendered It Of
the exact object and purposes sought to be ac-
complished. There was no suggestion In
either Of these letters Of any fear from illegal
acts, but the fear from suspension Of traffic,
Of an attending damage to the road and In
sons for the action which the judge took.
The committee says 1t does not think Judge
jenkins had any corrupt motives.

were on guard. A shot was fired TO scare the
women. In less than . minute the men lfv-
ing in the district rushed to the scene, when
White opened fire on the crowd that numbered
over 100. The ahray occurred between blocks
OF ovens and at the first fire from White and
the deputies, three men fell wounded. One
was shot through the thigh, one through both
legs, and a third In the neck. 1t Is believed

deputies could be masscd at this point, San
