them, and demanding that the minister
of justice publish the documents in the
case which were in his possession, was
then adopted by a vote of 275 to 1856.
After the adoption of this motion the
ministers left the chamber in n body
amid ironical ridlcules and went to
the E1ysee palace, where they handed
in their designations to President Faure,
who accepted them.
RESULT IS SURPRISING.
The chamber of deputies was ad-
iourned for week. The defeat of the
government is surprising in view of
the sweeping charges made against the
senator's, deputies and even ministers
involved, first of all in the Panama
canal sin and more recently In the
South Of France road management
scandals which became public as the
result Of an investigation made by M.
Flory, the official accountant of that
company. This was brought about by
accusations against various prOmi-
nent men made in the chamber of dep
uties, introduced by M. Rounaunet.
which eliminated recently in the ar
rest, trial and Imprisonment of M. Ed
mond Magnier, formerly senator from
Var and editor in chief of Evemement,
who is said to have received the sum
of $500 francs as part of the profits
Of the syndicate referred to.

of his men to join the union. [ went to
interview Mr.. Curran, and told him we
had heard he had said that any of his
employees who joined the union would
be discharged, and asked him if it was
SO. He said, I don't give a damn what
they join. That ended the interview.
Saturday evening, after the inter-
view with Curran, we talked with the
men again. They said that on Friday
he had told them if they joined the
union they would be discharged, and
on Saturday had informed them he
would not work a mixed crew, but
wanted them all to join the militia, as
he could get plenty of guns from Gov
ernOr Mcconnell. The best of good ma
ture prevailed, and some of the MEM
bers of the committee took dinner with
the wOrkmen at the Morning mine. OF
the committee of seven all nationalities
were represented. We are going to re-
peat this action right along peaceably,
soliciting the men to join the union,
and this is the only warfare we Intend
to wage"

Of Court Wrauglcs.

New York, Oct. 2S.-The Farmers
Loan & Trust Company as trustee I'M
der the several Northern Pacific mort
cages in default, has come to a deter
mination that will be welcomed by the
bondholders of that corporation. Tired
of the wrangle in the several United
States courts along the lines of recelv-
erships and despairing of the POSSIBLE
ity of bringing about an agreement be-
tween the several contending parties,
the trustee has come to the conclusion
that it's president shall undertake the
mission of appealing in person to the
several western United States judges
to agree upon such a policy as regards
the question of jurisdiction and the per-
sonnet of the receivers as will again in

President Rolston will start on that
mission next Wednesday accompanied

MERELY A FIRE OF TIMBER AND COAL
Alleged Volcano IN the Oiympics Has
Been investigated

Port Townsend, Oct. 28.-The explor-
ing party which went into the Olympic
mountains seeking evidences of alleged
volcanic fires, has returned. They
reached the summit of the first range
and ascertained that the smoke and
flames emanated from a deep ravine
leading down from the mountain peak
and which was filled with dead tim
Der. In the same ravine is a lead of
Ignite coal, which was ignited, and as
the fire followed up the vein cavng
bouIders and falling earth caused the
flames to ascend similar to volcanic
fires.

HAVE REAssUHrD THE GoyERNoI

Wallace Authorities say the Trouble
Ter tS All over.
Boise, Oct. 2S.-FrOm information re-
ceived by Governor Mcconnell from the
Occur d'Alenes it appears the miners
union did not attempt to carry out It's
threats to take the non-uniOn men out
of the Hunter mine at Mullan. It IS
thought probable that knowledge Of the
governors prompt action deferred those
who may have contemplated violence.
1t is the governors determination to
maintain law and order, and the men
up there seem to understand this. Sher-
if Sage, who, by the way, is populist,
wired the governor today:
II have just returned from Mullan.
No danger of trouble at the Hunter
mine"
Colonel Morrow notified the governor
that he had deputized A. w. Wilson as
captain of a military company at Null
Ian, and that 80 men have been sworn
in. Governor Mcconnell does not think
there will be any infraction of the law.
He, however, sent on 100 stand of arms
and 10000 rounds of ammunition.
