SIX MEN MASSACRED.
MOOnahiners Shoot Down Ofhcers In the
Wilda Of Pope County, Ark.

M0Onshiners Shoot Down Ohhcers In the
wilds Of Pope County. Ark.
LITTLE Rock, Ark, Aug. 81. Six
men were probably massacred in the
wilds of the mountains Of Pope county
Sunday afternoon. Two were killed
outright, two were fatally wounded
and left for dead, two have mysteri-
ously disappeared, and are either dead
or being held captive by the blood
thirsty bandits who committed the
awful crimes. The killed are; Capt.
B. F. Taylor, OF Searcy county, depu-
ty United States marshal; Joe Dodson,
Of Stone county, a deputy United
States marshal. The fatally wounded
are two brothers named Renfrow, OF
Searcy county. The names of the
missing men are not known, but
they are supposed to be deputy sheriffs
from an adjoining county. The VIC
tins were all officers, and the men
who did the awful work OF carnage are
moonshiners of the boldest and most
desperate class.
The scene of the bloody crime was a
gulch or ravine in the mountains of
Pope county, at an isolated spot 80
miles from Russellville, the nearest
telegraph Office The region is wild
and isolated. 1t has for years been the
favorite rendezvous for counterfeiters
and moonshiners, and district in
which no law-abiding citizen could
live The officers for long time have
been trying to break up the lawless-
ness in that vicinity. and many battles
between them and the desperadoes
have occurred. Capt. B. +. Taylor. the
richest man in Searcy county, and a
man Of much prominence, determined
to aid the officers in putting down
crime in that section. He secured
commission as deputy United States
marshal and led the posse in the raid
that resulted in his death.

ent labor organizations, including
Debs' social democracy, supplemented
by the populist party in Kansas, were
represented at the big labor confer
ence that assembled here yesterday,
but what the So different delegates &C.
complished during very busy session
no one knows besides themselves. The
committee on resolutions and plan of
action was at work all afternoon and
last night. Mr. Sovereign announced
that 1t had formulated plan, but de-
clined to give any details. The plat
form, 1t is expected, will be submitted
to the convention this morning.
Chairman Steinbiss of the local COM
mittee of arrangements, called the
labor conference to order at ten
o'clock. About 100 people were scat
tered about the hall, not all of them,
however, being delegates. Mr.. Stein
bliss suggested that as the call for the
convention had been issued hurriedly,
and as many of the delegates were yet
unadvised as to the meeting place and
hour, an adjournment be taken
till II o'clock. Shortly after II o'clock
the convention was again called to
order, W. B. Prescott chairman of the
National Typographical union, Of In.
dianapolis, was chosen temporary
chairman, and W. c, Pearce, Of Column
bus, temporary secretary.
The chairman then named commit
tee on resolutions and plan of action.
Mr.. Ratchford then took the floor He
went over the miners strike from its
inception to the present day, and
dwelt particularly upon government
by injunction He pleaded for
prompt action, and coming to the
point Of his argument, advocated an
appeal to the president of the United
States to call special session of con.
gress to act upon the matter Of injunc-
tions, and find means of relief from
the existing troubles in the labor
world. "ln case of REFUSAL" said Mr..
Ratchford, 81 am in favor If the presi-
dent refuses to call congress together,

A New Point That May Defeat Legislation
to Reduce Stock Yards ChargeG
ST. LOUIS, Aug. Sl.-"Even If the
federal court declares the Kansas law
regulating stock yards charges per.
fectly valid and effective, it can never
be enforced" said cattle commission
man to press correspondent. He con-
tinued:
The reason for this statement is this
Surprising the law to be In force, the pen
atty for violation thereof would be fine
and Imprisonment after trial by jury
This trial would be held necessarily In the
county where the offense was committed
The officers Of the stock yards and the
charging and collecting office are in Missouri,
not In Kansas. The cases would be brought In
Wyandotte county, Kan, but the judge would
rule he had no jurisdiction, as the business Is
done finally in Missouri, and all the additional
charges can be made at the Missouri end. This
renders the state Of Kansas powerless In the
matter, as you cannot try man there for an
offense committed In Missouri, and Missouri
takes no cognizance Of the Kansas law.

outcome VIII be. 1t seems 10 me,
however," he continued, that all
labor organizations realize that the
time has come for them to put aside all
petty jealousies and form one grand
amalgamation. Whether this organ
ization will be effected here, cannot
even surmise. Organized labor has
been working on a line to secure legis-
lation which will benefit the working
classes, but it has brought us no
benefit. 1t will now get to work in an
endeavor to remove the cause OF our
failure in legislative circles and hope
for better results Branching off into
the miners strike, Mr.. Sovereign said:
''rhis miners strike is nearer won
than many people believe If ever
there was a real grievance and just
cause for striking, it wasi in this strike,
and | believe they will yet win. IT,"
said Mr. Sovereign. in conclusion,
"they don't win, it is the last strike |
will ever go into on these lines" What
new plan of action Mr.. Sovereign had,
he declined to say.
The object of to-days conference
as far as can be ascertained from the
various opinions given out by the
local committee are to devise some
means for the relief Of the striking
miners of the country and to protest
against government by injunction"
or, in the words of the call itself, 1.-THE
object OF the convention will be not
merely to protest against the usurpa-
ton and tyranny of the courts, but to
formulate plans to compel return to
the principles of free government. and
put these plans in practical operation.
Secretary II. W. Steinbess, of the
Building Trades council, of st. Louis,
who has the work of preparing for the
convention, said last night: "The OBJ.
ject of the meeting is to settle the
miners strike. We want justice, and
we are going to have 1t, but not in de-
fance Of the principles OF American
liberty We are patriotic and we want
what's for the best interests of the en-
tire country. received the cali which
