TRIAL OF THE MINERS
Cases at Moscow. Idaho, viii Soon
Be Completed.

Moscow, Ida. Oct 2S.-If the present
rate of examining witnesses is kept up
it is probable that next week will see
the end of the trial of the Occur
d'Alene miners on a charge of holding
up a United States mail train and for
conspiracy in the federal court here.
This morning the examination of wit
nesses for the government was COM
menced. The prosecution attempted to
bring out facts and evidence to prove
conspiracy to blow up the Bunker Hill
and Sullivan mill at Wardner and that
to do this the miners conSpired to hold
the trains and TO do any other acts TO
accomplish their purpose. The govern
ment contends that the stopping of the
mail train was a concerted and prear-
ranged incident to the day proceedings
and was a part of the conspiracy to
blow up the mill.
An important witness was Thomas
Ames, a member of the Wardner union.
He stated that he was awakened early
on the morning of April 30, and was
fold there would be a meeting of the
union in the miners hall He went to
Pages hotel and there was told that
there would be no meeting, but to be
on hand at the depot with his bundle
of working clothes as the train COM
ing with other miners and the union
men would board it. He did not know
for what purpose. lie was afterWafd
told not to 90 as his thumb was off and
this would be a mark to identity him
if the crowd got into any trouble.
Tells of the Arrangements.
He stated that previous to this date
delegations had been sent to the Bun
ker Hill company with propositions
which were accepted; that he was dis
charged from Bunker Hill company,
but had goae back since; that he saw
fifty men with bundles near the train;
that the Bunker Hill manager was seen
by the union men later and that he re-
fused to talk or recognize them, but
witness disclaimed being a member OF
the delegation. He says Boyle was
president of the Wardner union and
O'Rourke secretary.
Albert Burch, the superintendent of
the Bunker Hill mine was called and
related the occurrences of the week pre-
ceding the blowing up of the mine. He
said that he found posted notice of
the miners requesting him to get his
men to join the union and that he then
discharged the seventeen union men.
He next saw the strikers under the
leadership of Ed Boyle, who made an
address to different shifts TO induce
them to join the union. In conclusion
witness disclaimed the charge of at
tempting to intimidate Simkins, wit
ness to be used by the defense.
Boxes of Powder Missing.
Joseph Mcdonald, of Gem, manager
of the Helena Frisco mine, told of see
ing the men going to Wardner. He said
on examining the powder house he
found eighty boxes missing; the lock
had been broken.
Lem Smith, a liveryman, the next
witness, told of hauling five men to
Wallace on the 2Sth; that they were
Wardner men and that they We're min
ers.
All these witnesses gave details of oc-
currences during the days preceding the
explosion and it was given to prove
general conspiracy to stop the trains
as an incident to the other crimes.

REIsER WILL BE SKINNED.
A Thousand Hannaites VIII Knife
Candidate for Auditor.

Candidate for Auditor.
As the cold black waves of defeat
begin TO roll in upon him, Albert C.
Reiser is said to become more des-
perate in his struggles to escape his
doom. The story that he remained on
the Doresnus city committee through
the campaign two wears ago AND
worked for Clark and accepted a job
from Clark after the election, was
used against him in the city convention
and came near defeating him for the
nomination. Since the convention he
has strained every nerve to square
himself on this point, and imagined he
saw light ahead when another story
of a similar character was sprung upon
him by the same faction of Hannaites
who are determined to swamp him.
This last story is to the effect that in
the last school fight Reiser went as a
delegate to the convention that nom
mated NJ. II. Walker as a member of
the school board. and that afterward
he got out and worked for John c. Cut-
Ter. Mr.. Walkers opponent, and did all
in his power TO defeat the man put up
by his own convention
These are the facts as given out by
Reisers enemies in the Hanna camp,
and they have sworn that such a con-
fir1ned bolter shall not be elected. It
is estimated that he will run fully 1000
votes behind the balance of the Storm
Bureau ticket and viii be the worst
beaten man that ever ran for office.
The story has just leaked out from
good friends of Reiser's that in his des-
peration to make up from some other
source what he viii lose through the
hostility of this faction, he is prepar-
ing a roorback to spring in the last
days of the campaign TO the effect that
his Democratic opponent. G. B. Blake
ly. is trading off any Mormon on the
Democratic ticket for a vote for him
self. When this came to Mr. Blakeley' 8
ears he promptly offered to post $500
for evidence TO show that he had at any
time. to any person or under any cir
cumstances, offered to trade any man
on the Democratic ticket, and so that
scheme recoils like a boomerang.

Eureka, Oct. 2S.-The coming few
months will be pretty we'll taken up
with pugilfstie attractions and no less
than two fights will undoubtedly be
pulled off here during November. Jerry
Mccarthy, who fought a twenty-five

Charlie williams. the winner or the
williams Thomas scrap, which VIII

having so informed Mccarthy. The
match. if made, will be for bet of
$500 a. sZde, gate receipts to go to the
winner. and will likely he held here
the fore part of next month. Williams,
before his battle with Mccarthy here
a short time ago, was practically UNI
known, but now has the support OF a
large coterie of sporting men, who are
willing to back him for almost any
sum. Arrangements are also under
way for a mill between James Reilly of
San Francisco and Joe Cotton, who

the most alarmed man in town for a

man untying the outfit containing his
valuables, from the window, and. rush
ing wildly into the street, grasped the

TIMMoNY rs sANGUINE.
The Judge Says It's All Over But the
Shouting


Judge Timmony was the last speaker.
Owing to the lateness of the hour, he
cut his remarks short, but what he
said was sufficient to keep UP the tu-
multuous applause that marked the
meeting throughout. His reference to
the appeal to postmasters to help save
Ohio for the Republican party, woFded
as it was literally brought down the
house. Judge Timmony launched out
with this aland declaration:
This election is all over but the
shouting If there was a doubt as to
the outcome of this campaign in the
minds of any present tonight, | am
safe in saying it has been dlspelled, and
at midnight on Nov. know the good
word will be clicked over the United
States that in the heart of the silver
state-in Salt Lake City-the Democ-
racy is true to silver.
Scared In Ohio.
'sIney are pretty scared down in
Chic. McKinleyts own state" continued
the Judge They are sending the spell
binders of the nation there, they are
working desperately to keep the state
in the Republican column, for they
know that to lose it means the loss OF
the nation in 1900. They are sending to
the pnstrnasters for financial aid. Iney

have no doubt, from the cancellation of

plause.] But will they save. II? We

Daly's Mission Unsuccessful.
Especial Correspon6encs.)

Provo, Oct. 27.-Tom Daley. the Salt
Lake pugilist, was in this city today
trying to arrange for the second glove
contest between Dummy Rowan and
joe Cotton to be pulled off at the Provo
opera house. The prospects of getting
a crowd did not seem very bright to
Daley, on account of the recent fakes
in that line which have been perpetrat-
ed on the Provo public, and so he de-
cided not to pull off the mill here. He
leaves tomorrow morning for Mercur,
where, he informed The Herald man.
the mill will come off about Nov. IA.

No Apologies to Make.

1.-THE Democrats have no apologies to
make. We have not changed front;
we are fighting now Just where we
fought two years ago, for the cause of
silver, which is the peoples cause, and
against the trusts, which is the cause
of plutocracy."
Judge King closed his address with
hearty praise for the men on the Demo-
cratic ticket. Mr.. Barnes, he said, was
an honest, courageous man. a man who
would not be led by any boss. He had
failings, of course. but they were the
failings that make men great. He had,
above all things, good common sense.
Judge King would not say horse sense,
because he understood the Republicans
had a monopoly on that in this cam
paign, and we didn't want an injunc-
ton suit.
The economy, loyalty to the people $
interests and care Of Treasurer Morris
and Recorder Bacizman were COM
mended The loyalty to principles OF
Frank 3. Stephens, man who could
not be whipped back, was pointed out,
and similar good words were said FOR
the others on the ticket.
