A Big Reduction i'm Wages.

The Carson Valley ranch owners
held meeting at Mottsville yester-
day and resolved to only pay the
haying and harvest hands fifteen dol
lara month the year round here
after. Heretofore the men have
been getting forty dollars month in
harvest time and one dollar day in
Winter months. 1t is said the men
will not submit to such a radical re-
duction and refuse to work. Elk.
Fred Dangberg, who was in Car
son yes erday, says he has heard
nothing Of such a reduction, and that
there is nothing in it. Fred says
they don't care to employ men who
would work for such low wages.

DESPERATE MINERS
Attempt to Blow Up the
Militia With Dynamite.
PLAN TIMELY FRUSTRATED.
An Attempt to Capture the Peipetra-
tors Proves Futile.

TERRE HAurE, Ind. June 5-A guam
tity of dynamite was placed on the track
of the Evansville and Terre Haute rail
road yesterday by striking miners. The
horrible explosive was placed on the
track In front of the train bearing the
several companies Of the Indiana militia.
In command OF General Mckee.
The train bearing the militia men
moved out from Sullivan at o'clock,
and proceeded directly to Shelburn. II
preceded the coal train and pulled on the
side track AT Shelburn TO allow the other
train TO pass along.
The coal train went down the track at a
fair rate of speed, and no attempts were
made TO draw the pins. At the trestle
work Just north of the road running
along the station the speed was slack
ened materially for fear that the timbers
might have been weakened.
The militia train moved rapidly for
ward and drew TO standstili directly IN
the rear of the coal train. An investiga-
ton showed the reason for alarm.
Across the rails for a distance OF 80
feet heavy timbers were stretched in all
possible ways. In am bush in the heavy
grass and thickly studded timber were a
body of 200 miners. IL was their purpose
to capture the coal train. The disem-
barkment of the troops was Immediately
begun, and General Mckee ordered the
troops TO endeavor to surround the
miners, but the maneuver failed, and the
miners scattered in all directions
