STRIKERS ARE VICIOUS,
Destroy Street Car Company's Prop
ertY In Duluth.

Duluth, Mimi, May THE damage
done the rolling-stock of the street
railway company by mobs in different
parts of the city today was greater
than all of that of last week. over 100
car windows were broken and three
persons We're injured. Fred Fewings,
conductor for the Duluth, Missabe &
Northern, had his head cut with a
stone. He will recover. Two women
were hurt, one being cut in the face
by flying glass, and the other struck in
the back with a stone. Strikers or
their sympathiZers stole a switch point
this afternoon, causing a cessation OF
operations on part Of the road. The
danger to passengers and the damage
TO property was so serious that the
company abandoned all cars at 20
o'clock. The police made but one ar
rest, that of a small boy.
Strikers are intimidating Mrs. Le-
claires, with whom the non-union men
are boarding. A committee of the eX-
employees of the company visited the
boarding house and made overtuSeS to
buy the new men off and get them TO
leave the employ of the company. Mrs.
Leclaires' barn was fired Saturday
night, but no damage was done.
The committee of business men re-
ported to the mayor today that they
were unable to get the strikers and the
company to come together, and asked
to be relieved from further duty. The
strikers attended church in body both
morning and evening.

DEATH BLOW To UNIONS
At THE WARDNER MINES
General Merriam and Attorney General Hayes to
Stop LaWleSSneSS In the Occur dAleneS
Only Condition On Which Mines Can Be Opened, Is Nom
employment of Organized Labor.

Spokane, Wash, May mines Of
Shoshone county, Idaho, that propose
to operate during the reign of martial
law may do so only on condition that
they do not employ members of the
Occur d'Alene Miners union.
This is the martial law as laid down
by General Merriam and Attorney Cen
eral Hayes of Idaho. AT a meeting
of the mineowners in this city this
morning Mr.. Hayes presented this
mandate. The owners cheerfully
promised to obey.
we are going to clean up the Occur
d'Alenes," said Attorney General Hayes
prior to his departure for Boise. Il
have seen some of the mineowners to-
day, and they have been informed by
the proper authorities that they cannot
employ anyone connected with GRIM
inal organization in the county. The
miners unions in Shoshone county
contain many desperadoes and crimi-
nails, who have, under the protection
of the unions. perpetsated crimes and
outrages. Twice has it been necessary,
because of these men and their organ
ization. to put the country under mar
tial law. We want TO put stop TO
that sort of thing.
High-handed Lawlessness.
''The owners living in Spokane allow
the union to run things, and when
property is threatened or riots occur
as a result they wire TO the governor
of Idaho to send troops to protect their
property. Some of these owners know
who the men were who left their mines
TO so up to Wardner for the purpose
of blowing up the Bunker Hill and Sui
liVan mill. They allowed the men to
so out of the mines to destroy the
property Of another and then to return
TO work.
I'VE have undertaken as large a job
of criminal prosecution as ever COM
Trying between 700 and 500 men is a
task of enormous magnitude. We pro-
pose to push the prosecution vigorous
~, however. l am obliged to go to
Boise for few days on official bust
ness, but viii be back in about week,
and expect to spend the entire sumnler
in the Occur d'Alenes.
Prisoners will be tried in both the
state and federal courts. Murder and
arson are some Of the charges the
state will bring against these men. and
we hope to inflict the extreme penal
ties. The state and federal authorities
are working amicably together in the
matter and will aid each other all that
is possible

for others could not be got here quick
enough.
1T does not seem to be generally un-
derstood that Governor Steunenberg
called upon the government for troops
before he knew of the destruction of
the mill. He had heard a report that
the mill was to be blown up, but had
received no confirmation of the report
when he called on the president at 8
D. m. Saturday for troops.
Today'S meeting of the Occur d Alene
mineowners was held at the offices of
Finch & Campbell. 1t was called at
the request of Attorney General Hayes.
who desired to lay before the owners
the mandate of the state and federal
authorities that union miners could not
be employed in the region.
Mineowners Are Willing.
Mr.. Hayes laid before us the ruling
that union men must not be employed"
said Mr.. Finch after the meeting. He
said further that the state authorities
would expect our cooperation, and
we told him they would have it. OF
course, we cannot get men right away,
and we do not propose to go out and
look for them. We are going to wait
and see if they come to us. There are
certainly a great many good men in the
unions, but as Mr. Hayes said, when
we told him this, if they are good men
they can disavow their allegiance to the
unions and go TO work. Until men suf-
ficient to operate the mines come in the
mines will ha ~ to remain closed down"

COLORADO SHOOTING ARRAY,
Third Tragedy at Bayfield, Within
Three Weeks.

Durango. Colo, May "A tragedy
occurred at Bayfield,. twenty-five miles
southeast of here, this morning, in
which w. E. Brinckley was shot and
instantly killed by William Wieland.
Brinckley, who had been drinking
more or less for two days, became very
quarrelsome and finally struck Wieland
with his fist, the latter returning the
blow, knocking Brinckley down.
Brinckley rushed into his house and
returned with pistol. with which he
attempted to shoot Wieland, but the
weapon refused to work. Wieland
snatched it from Brinckley's hand. He
pulled the trigger, and this time the
revolver went off, killing Brinckley in
stantly.
Both men are prominent in this To-
cality Wieland was arrested and
brought to Durango, where he is now
in Jail This is the third tragedy of
this kind that has occurred at Bayfield,
in the last three weeks.

WOMEN ABUSE SOLDIERS.
Take Part of Miners When Arrests
Are Made.

Wardner, May Two hundred and
eighty-five miners, arrested at Mullan
and Gem last night, were brought here
and placed in the stockade with nearly
400 others who are suspected of being
in the mob which blew up the Bunker
Hill and Sullivan mill. About 200 men
are now confined in the stockade, but
as soon as the coroner's investigation
is finished ii is understood that many
of the prisoners will be released.
Many of the men from the Standard
and Frisco mines have taken to the
hills, but it is believed that a number
of them will be arrested, as it is diff
cult for them to get out of the country
None of the men arrested made any re-
sistance, but the women stood near and
applied vile names to the soldiers.
The safe of the Burke Miners union
was taken to the military headquar-
tiers here today, and it is expected some
important papers Will be found when it
is opened.

DEMAND MINING CONCESSIONS.
French Want Indemnity For I'm
prisonment of Priest.

Pekin. May THE French minister NJ.
Tichon. has demanded mining concessions
to the value of 100000 taels in the prov
ince of SEE Chuan, one of the largest in
China, and traversed by the Yang-tse-
Kiang. as indemnity for the recent i'm
prisonment of a French missionary. The
demand is considered eXorbitant.
The Chinese say that the existing con-
dtions of rebellion are not due to any
lack of energy on the part of the govern
ment which has frequently consulted the
French minister regarding the best means
of obtaining the freedom of the priest in
question.
According to advices from Hankau. cap
ital of the province of Hoo-Pee, the Rus
slams contemplate taking definite action
with reference TO property now owned by
British subjects in the Russian Jardine
concession.
The Russian consul refuses to recognize
the titles of the claimants. The affair
threatens to interfere seriously with the
Pekin-Hankow railway project. and the
dismissal of the Russian official is con-
sidered TO be the only remedy.

A REMARKABLE PROPOSITION.
Backed Up by Ample Capital, PFu-
dent Management and Experience
of Nearly Half n Century.

We are prepared to make a most remark
able proposition which any thinking man
must see is liberal, honest and desirable.
We will lend amounts from $1,000 to $4,000
for the use of any mans family at his
death, and all we require is an average
rate Of interest of about 49, per cent. You
never repay the loan; all we ask is the in
terest. We further agree that you need
pay the interest only while you are alive
to earn it. II, from stress of circum-
stances you find you cannot continue your
interest payments, the proper proportion
Of the loan belongs TO your family any
how, or if you desire we will return you
your share in cash without delay or quib-
bic, the only condition being that you have
made payments for two full years We de-
maud no security other than perfect health
on your part. With a proposition like the
above from such company as the Massa-
chusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company,
organized 1851, the leading Massachusetts
life company. there is no excuse for any
man to leave his family unprovided for.
Let us send you further information about
this matter. We will do so cheerfully If
you will send us your age and address.
