Miners Employed in the Yellow
jacket, Idaho, Walk Out
ABOUT 100 MEN ARE IDLE
Members of the Butte Union Warn
ed to Keep Away While the
Trouble Exists-The FEEDER
alton at Denver.

A dispatch to the Standard states
that a strike Is on among the miners
of the Yellow Jacket mine. near Salmon
City. Idaho. There are nearly 100
miners employed there and all walked
out on the instructions of the Western
Federation of Miners. the miners of
the Yellow Jacket belonging to the fed
GRAFTON. The miners of the Yellow
Jacket have telegraphed to Butte
warning all miners and laborers to
keep away until the trouble is settled
The full particulars regarding the
strike are not yet known, and the
cause can only be conjectured. The
Yellow Jacket was sold a short time
ago for $4,000, 900, of which one-ffth
was paid down. 1t is supposed that in
the change of management a reduction
in wages was attempted, but no def
mite information on this point has yet
been received here.
The Butte Miners union has elected
delegates 10 the fourth annual conven-
ton of the Western Federation Of
Miners, which will meet at Denver
next Monday, May IL. The Butte dele
gates will start for Denver tomorrow.
The delegates from the Butte union
are William Walsh, John Byrne, James
McGovern, Charles O'Brien and John
II. Cronin. William Walsh is president
of the local union. Besides the dele
gates, Messfs. James Maher, w. II.
Eddy and John Bevan will attend from
Butte, being members OF the executive
board of the Federation
The Western Federation of Miners
was organized i'm Butte four years ago.
1t is a combination of all the Miners
unions of Montana, Idaho, Utah, Colo
RADIO and Nevada. Its aim Is to main
tain the union scale of wages, to pro-
mote legislation for the protection and
security of miners working in danger
Gus places and to afford mutual aid In
case of need The matter of the yell
low Jacket strike will doubtless receive
the attention of the Federation in its
session at Denver at once.

Acting City Attorney barrow quoted
the section of the code which empowers
cities to compel the storage of explos-
ives three miles from the city limits.
Byrne then read the law which requires
the mayor to enforce the city ordinance
and added: Now, what are all these
motions for? Here is the law which
makes IL the duty of the mayor to en-
force the ordinances and we have an
ordinance requiring that powder SHAH
be stored three miles from the city
limits. Why is not this ordinance en-
forced? Is II because we are afraid or
the powder companies? 1t is shame
that such a state of affairs should be
allowed to exist. The mayor should
compel the removal of the magazines,
and IL they are not moved in very
sort time I would compel their remov-
al by force"
After listening to Byrne's emphatic
remarks Heilig withdrew a motion
which he had made for the appoint
ment of a special powder committee.
The mayor replied that the proposed
site is within the three mile limit and
that the ordinance would have to be
amended before anything more could
be done. Cook stated that there was
too great a tendency to relegate the
powers of the mayor to committees. A
motion to instruct city officer to do his
duty was ridiculous on its face. II the
mayor would go ahead and enforce the
law relative to the storage of powder he
did not think the county commission
ers would have the hardihood to inter
fere. Cannon said the proposed site Is
two and three-quarters miles from the
city limits and pointed out its advan-
tages The city attorney stated, in re-
ply to a question from Cook, that
should the powder magazines be locat-
ed inside the three-mile limit without
the ordinance being amended, the city
would be liable for damages ip the
event of an explosion.
1t was finally decided to have the city
engineer measure the distance from the
city limits to the proposed site and
then have the city attorney draw up a
new ordinance to conform to the dis
tance. A lengthy discussion followed
as to the registration for the next city
election.

On one occasion Napoleon in disguise
was going the rounds of his sentinels
when he was challenged at the juno
ton of two roads where he had issued
positive orders to let no one pass. AS
Bonaparte approached he was ordered
to halt, to which he replied that he
was a general officer. Il care not the
soldier replied, my commands are TO
let no one go by, and If you were the
Little Corporal himself you should not
pass" The next day the sentinel was
raised to the rank of an officer for his
faithfulness to duty. Napoleon, even
when emperor, always Interested him
self in the condition of his soldiers,
personally inspected their food and
lodgings, remembered their names and
faces and conversed with them freely.

or wealth, formed the only passports 10

"carries in his knapsack a marshal $

the guard, unable to restrain his inn
patience, cried out: Send a regiment
there. sire. and the victory is ours.
Napoleon reproved him at the time. but
privately caused the young man who
had shown such military insight to be
found. that ne might be promoted. I'm

Buried In a Snow siiie-The Council Puts
Its Foot Down.


Its Foot Down.
Special Dispatch to the Standard.
Livingston, May 5.-Five miners were
engulfed in a snow-slde at the st. Judin
mine near Chico to-day. The men were in
the bunk house at the time the slide oc-
Cured. Knute Knutson and a man named
Fox are among the injured. IL is not
known who the others are, but one re-
port is that Jim Kripner is one of them.
1t is said that one was killed; the others
were rescued. DIR. Alton has gone to the
scene by private conveyance to render
the necessary surgical assistance.
At the coucil meeting tonight the city
hall question was again deferred. Alder
man Mallahan exploded a bomb at the
meeting by the advocating of the build
ing on the railroad right-of-way. II is
learned that the majority of the council
are not in favor of erecting $4,000
structure upon leased ground where the
lease stipulates that 1t must be removed
upon notice being given by the railroad
company. The conservative aldermen of
the city of Livingston will not indulge in
the folly of bonding the city for the i'm
provement of railroad property. This
proposition was rejected by the former
council when it refused to erect a cheap
affair on the right-of-way. II the ques-
ton to tax the citizens for the erection
of a costly building on railroad property
had been submitted to the voters IL would
have been Overwhelmingly defeated.

But j. Carker Is ...td to Answer to the
Charge of cunt rfeiting.
John Stone and n. F. Sloan had
preliminary examination before United
States Commissioner McMurphey yes
terday afternoon on the charge of pass
ing counterfeit money. 1t was shown
that one of the brothers had innocentiy
attempted to pass a bogus dollar, OF
which he had innocently come in pos
session, and the men were honorably
discharged.
j. Carker had an examination on the
same charge, at the same time, but he
was not so fortunate as the others. 1t
was shown that ne had attempted to
pass a counterfeit silver dollar in three
different places, and he was held to the
United States court under bonds or
$500, which he was unable to furnish.
The three bogus dollars which were
taken from Carker at the time of his
arrest were introduced in evidence.
They are the best counterfeits that
have ever been seen in the city and are
we'll calculated to deceive the unwary.
1t is believed that Carker is member
of an organized gang which is making
its headquarters in Butte. and the offi-
GERS are hot after his partners.

The oft discussed question of the re-
moval of the powder magazines to
some safe place was again discussed.
with the result that definite action was
taken in the matter. knowlton started
the discussion by expressing the opin-
ion that the powder companies need
stirring up. 1t appeared to him from
the last letter of NJ. c. Harris, that
they did not propose to move the mag
zines at all and he moved that the
mayor be instructed to see the railroad
companies relative to building a switch
selected by the powder agents. the
members of the powder committee of
the council and the county commission
ers and that the powder companies be
compelled to remove the magazines by
June l, as previously ordered by the
council.
Cannon stated that II the proposed
site was selected by the powder COM
panies the Northern Pacific would build
a switch at once. He said that Mr.. Oil
yer. the representative Of the Atlas
company had told him that a site
would be selected in three days. Mr.
Oliver was out of the city during the
previous discussion and the other
agents desired to await his return be-
fore taking any final action. He be-
lieved that better results could be OBJ
tanned by working tremendously with
the powder companies, as they were
anxious to move their magazines TO a
safe location. At the request Of Byrne,

Three Important Orders Issued at Yes
terday's Meeting.

The Railroad Commission has confirm
ed the order printed exclusively In yes
terday's News and Observer in the matter
of connection between the Seaboard ana
Southern west-bound passenger trains
leaving here al $50 o'clock y. m. Super
intendent Moncure represented the Sea
hoard before the Commission and super
intendent \. ]. 0'Brien appeared IN be-
half of the Southern.
As previously announced in these col
umns Mr. Moncure had already gwen ms
approval of the order. Mr.. O Brien said
that the trouble with the Southern is that
they have to make connection at Colds
boro with the Atlantic Coast Line, which
is often behind time and then with NO.
So ut Greensboro, carrying through
Southern mail, which train runs on
schedule over which the Southern has no
control This makes it necessary TO
make up the time lost ut Goldsboro on
the run to Greensboro. Therefore MT.
ORrien asked that his train be not maze
to wait here. But this reason dld not
appear sufficient to the Commission ana
the order was formally issued. There
upon Mr.. O'Brien said he would do all
in his power to have his.road carry out
the order as made.
Line against the Southern Passenger
Association it was ordered that the clerk
Of the Commission, Mr.. I'll. G. Brown,
make up the case in proper shape and
forward it to the Interstate Commerce
Commission, as requested by the COM
plainant, Mr.. T. j. Anderson. General
Passenger Agent OF the Seaboard.
Complaint has also been filed before
the Railroad Commission in regard to
the passenger service between Weldon
and Scotland Neck 1t sets forth that
there is only one passenger train day
and that this is great inconvenience to
the travelling public. The complainant
asks that a passenger coach be attached
to the freight train leaving Weldon daily.
The Commission has served this COM
plant on the. company and asks that the
petition be granted.
Maj. J. w. Wilson, chairman OF the
Commission, telegraphed to Col. An
drews, Vice President OF the Southern
Railway, making inquiries touching the
Hickory freight trouble, and received the
following reply, which explains the whole
matter:
'.No such order was issued Orders
were issued to agents, where it did not
prejudice local shipments to try and get
1900 pounds in a car; but empty cars
are put upon all trains to takes ship
ments. Some few agents mistook the
oredr, / presume, and that led to the re-
port As soon as it was called to Mr.. Fin
ley's attention, he at once issued orders to
superintendents and agents which has
remedied the matter"
