ting the Wardner Riots.
NO ARMED MEN EMPLOYED
Union Scale of Wages Was Not Paid.
American Federation of Labor De-
clines Boyce's Invitation to
Labor Convention.

Wallace, June 30.-In the impeach-
missioners of Shoshone county who
are charged with aiding and abetting
the riot on April 20, when the Bunker
Hill and Sullivan mill was blown up,
both sides rested the case. Judge
Stewart suggested taking up the case
against Sheriff Young Immediately on
the same charge and arguing both to-
gether, as the same points would be
largely involved. This was accepted
by counsel 1t was also agreed that
the testimony of Young yesterday in
the case of the commissioners should
be considered his testimony in his own
behalf.
The state submitted kilograms pass
ing between the sheriff and the COVER
nor in relation to the Wardner situa-
ton and called Frederick Burbrdge,
manager of the Bunker Hill COM
pany.
He told of Sheriff Young's visit to his
office on April 20, but insisted that
Young wanted him to settle the differ
ences with the union instead of the
miners, as Young testified yesterday.
Witness could not do that, as the com
pany would not agree to 1t. He told
the SHerliI aDOut dfHeu 1ne0 capturing
their tramway and turning men back
from coming to the mine. Young
agreed to see that the men got to the
mine.
On oss-examination Burbridge said
the company owned IL or Is rifles, relics
of 1892, but employed no armed men ex
cept three watchmen at the mill He
admitted that the company did not pay
the union scale of wages, but increased
the scale at the time of the strike. Con-
tinuing, he said:
I'VE did not raise wages to meet the
demand of the union nor to prevent the
strike; when the union men walked
out we considered they had quit. We
have always DISCHARGED union men
when we found out we had them in our
employ Until the men struck and an
nounced themselves members of the
union, we did not know there were any
union men in the mines" ...

A Free-for-An Fight In the italian Cham
Der of Deputies. .n

Rome, June 30.-In the chamber of
deapties to-day the socialists and eX-
treme leftists recommended their OBJ
struction tactics and created an i'm
mense uproar. The president of the
house combatted the efforts of the OBJ
structionists and finally the deputies
left their seats, crowded on the floor,
and there was such an uproar that the
sitting was suspended. When it was
resumed similar tactics were carried
on by the extreme leftists, who crowd
ed the floor. The tumult was deaf
ening and eventually a free fight en-
sued and the sitting was again sus-
pended.
At later session of the chamber
despite the entreaties of the president,
who begged the deputies to be calm
and proceed to a vote. the uproar was
redoubled, members flocking to the
floor in front of the presidents chair,
and finally upsetting the ballot boxes.
A secret ballot having been ordered
on certain bills, the socialists rushed
down to prevent it. Signor Sonnino
advanced first to register his vote, but
the socialist deputy, Signor Bissolati,
dealt him a violent blow near the tenn
pie. Signor Sonnino then seized him
by the throat and coat collar and threw
him down, receiving himself in the
meantime, numerous blows from the
Olner SOCIALISTS VINO loOh part IN the
ARRAY.
While this tussle was in progress
hand to hand combats were waging all
around and the conservatives, Sig
nors Santini and Bertolini, used their
fists upon the socialists with great eff
feet. Signor Costa, socialist, with his
sleeves turned up, dealt blows right
and left.
Count Ferruccio Macola, proprietor
of the Gazetta di VeneZia, who, in this
duel in March of last year. killed Sig
nor Cavalotte, the poet and publicist,
attacked Signor di Feliee, whose
friends cried Beware of the muir
derer."
General Pelleux, pale and stupefed,
remained standing. He was on the
point of being attacked when Admiral
Bettelo raised a rapier and defended
him. The galleries Joined in the up
roar with wild cries and were cleared.
Signor Chinagalia, the president of the
chamber, suspended the sitting.
The secret ballot was again called
for with the result that there was a
repetition of the disorder. The presi-
dent thereupon adjourned the house
until tomorrow.
A cabinet council was held this even
ing after which General PellieuX. tn,
premier, conferred with King Humbert

The Belgian Government Has
Capitulated.

Hundred People Were Injured in the
Fighting-The Premier Expresses
Strong Desire for Con-
Citation.

brussels, June 30.-Rioting continued
here until 2 a. m. Gems d'armes charged
the mobs fiercely several times. Sauce
pans and other domestic implements
were thrown from windows during the
night at the troops. The Gazette says
l00 persons We're injured during the
rioting.
At the opening of the chamber of
deputies to-day NJ. Orion introduced an
amendment to the rules so as to allow
the expulsion of any deputy causing a
disturbance. The socialists vigorously
protested and Violently mathematical
the movers.
When quiet was restored the social
lists drew moving pictures of the VIC
tins of the repression lying wounded
in the hospitals and demanded ito know
who was responsible for such 'unjustt-
fable horrors"
The premier replied: TT is 1 who
caused the strength of the gendarmery
to be increased on legal acquisitions
made before the repression COM
menced.'
This statement drew forth a storm of
inVectives and socialist cries of Muir
der"
Subsequently several of the deputies
appealed to the government to be con-
ciliatory, whereupon the premier ex-
pressed the strongest desire for con-
Citation, and said he was prepared to
seek that end. The statement was
greeted with applause, in the midst of
which the session was ended.
The socialists left the house together
and M. Wander Velde, after receiving
the permission of the police. addressed
the crowd outside, informing them of
the ministerial statement. 1t is believed
the premier's declaration will appease
the public.
During the night stones were hurled
at the windows of the premier's resi-
dence, the porter of which was hurt, and
blood was smeared on the pavement
in front of the house.
AT a meeting this evening convened
by Wander Velde, the Able y Daens,
Christian democrat, congratulated the
socialists ON the success they had
achieved and predicted the advent of
universal suffrage. Thousands of peo-
pie accompanied the speaker to the
train singing the "Marseillaise."
In view of the pacific declarations in
the chamber that public meetings are
now permitted, the liberal and socialist
ment has capitulalted
About 10 o'clock this evening a great
socialist procession, headed by the So
cialist deputies, paraded the streets
singing and shouting. When the
Grande palace was reached, the dem.
onstrators eheereds .Burgomaster Bulls,
who exhorted them to remain orderly.

Miners are Safe.

San Francisco, June 30.-A story has
recently been circulated to the effect
that a party of miners who left Ne
vada City some months ago to pros
pect in the North had persisted Of cold
and hunger in the wilds of Siberia. Mrs
Norval Douglass, OF this city, whose
son is one of the party states that
there is no truth in the story.
THE party never went to Siberia
nor had any intention of going there

are now camped 300 miles beyond Arc

them through another season.

is UP TO EXPECTATIONS
Secretary Alger Satisfied With
the Enlistments.
PLANS FOR OPERATIONS
Fighting Will Be Resumed When the
Rainy Season Closes, September
l5-Four Thousand Troops
Ready to Sail.

Washington, June 30.-The situation
in the Philippines was discussed at the
cabinet meeting to-day and general
satisfaction was expressed in the adj
ministration's plans for the reinforce
ment of General Otis, which contem-
plated the reopening of active opera
lions on a large scale when the rainy
season closes Sept Is. Secretary Alger
reported that enlistments were coming
up to expectations. With view to Off
cering the regiments raised under the
volunteer provisions of the army bill,
the records of the officers of the volun-
teer organizations which saw service
in Cuba and Porto Rico and which are
now serving in the Philippines are be-
ing carefully examined in order that
recognition may be given to such of
them as may desire to re-enter or con-
tinue in the service according to their
ability and merit. Some of the meritori-
Gus non-commissioned officers may also
be recognized. State lines are to be ig-
nored Some regular officers are also
to be commissioned as volunteer Off
GERS.
Secretary Gage expressed the opinion
to his colleagues that the deficit for
this fiscal year would fall below $780,
100000. A petition was read from some
Cuban planters requesting the abolition
of the duty on breeding cattle. AL
though the duty is only 81 per head, the
request probably will be granted. AS
to Porto Rico, Secretary Alger reported
that some planters are considerably
embarrassed owing to a provision of the
old Spanish law, which reserved 20 feet
along the coast all around the island.
This interferes with the plans of some
of the planters for building piers.

Convention in Chicago.

Washington, June 30.-The American
Fedora ton of Labor in this city to-day
received telegram from Edward
Boyce of the Miners union in Mon
tana, asking cooperation and support
in a national labor convention to be
held in Chicago, to protest against the
action of the military authorities in

pressing sympathy with the object of
the convention, declined to have the
American Federation of Labor drawn
officially into action with this particu-
lar movement The message from Mr.
Boyce was as follows:
Butte. Mont, June 2S.-Samuel Com
pers, Washington: Will you join union
men of the West and hold national
labor convention at Chicago July II, to
protest against the usurpation of power
by military authorities in Idaho?
ED BOYCE."
President Gompers replied:
ED Boyce, Butte. Mont: The Amer
lean Federation of Labor authorizes its
officers to take every action in defense
of and 10 further labor interests, but
special conventions have proven ex
pensive, useless, superfluous and often
destructive of the purposes for which
they were called. We shall leave no
effort untried to prevent military or
other usurpation and we should have
your cooperation at that end"
