CRISIS TO COME THURSDAY.

the Occur d'AIene Country.
WARDNER, Idaho, May 15-The crisis
In the labor troubles here will commence
on Thursday of this week. Should the
period pass over quietly, no more out
breaks of lawlessness need be looked for
during the continuance Of military rule.
On the other hand, should there be any
clash this week between the soldiers and
the lawless element in the union, it Is
impossible to tell what bloodshed may
occur. Thursday is the last day allowed
under the recent proclamation for work
ing miners to apply for permits to remain
in underground employment. On that
day the inspection of the mines all over
the Occur d'Alenes will commence. 1t
will be a, rigid examination, and it will
be conducted both by the military and
the civil authorities. Every mine which
today Is employing men without per-
mits will be summarily closed it's pumps
drawn and a guard placed over it. Up
Canyon creek, where none but union min
ers are employed, they still sullenly re-
fuse to make applications for the cards.
In order to secure a permit the miner
must renounce membership in the $50
ciety which has favored or encouraged
the recent lawlessness in the district.
The union is not named Outright in the
printed forms to WHICH the applicant
must subscribe. Only about dozen
from all the Canyon creek district have
secured their cards. SQf those who re-
main many are determined to stick dog
gedly to the union to the last. Others
are afraid to take out cards until after
the end of the week. ter-et

them. Says he:

He commends the conduct of the marine

mentioning Sergt. Michael McNaIiy and

the stand of the fence until surrounded

natives into the bush to protect the
flank. The gallantry Of Private Henry
E. Hurlburt. who remained behind at the
fence to the last and was with Lansdale
and Monaghan when they were killed, Is
especially mentioned.
SURGEON LUNGS REPORT.
The last report of the series is made
by Passed Assistant Surgeon Lung, who
was with the expedition, and details
closely every movement. He says the
greatest caution was used to prevent
surprise while passing through the ravine
and along the crossroad where the affair
could not be broken down. The situation
occurred. Both sides of the read were
lined with heavy barbwire fence, which
could not be broken down. The situation
was a most unfavorabie one for the ex-
petition, the hostiles were posted on
the crest of the bluff, so we'll entrenched
that they could not be seen and their
presence was only made known by their
firing. The Americans and British at
first fire advanced along the road a little,
then dropped in the ditch at the roadside
and returned several vol,eys. The Colt
gun failed again, and this fact, says Sur
geon Lung, probably helped to bring on
the disaster that followed. The hostiles
were closing around the eastern end of
the line, but they could not be charged
because of the barbed wire fence, so a
retreat was ordered, which encouraged
the enemy to increase their fire The
retreat was orderly at first and was
agreed to by Lieut.. Cave and Lieut.. Per-
kins, but, says Surgeon Lung, in a few
minutes everybody remaining on the
high ground came through the second
wire in a confused retreat, f1oundering.

in abusing Mannassau he should have

The public won't stand for forfeited

What they want is ball playing
The Journal says: THAT Wilmot was

that he was unwise in not retiring is

st. Paul base ball club. They always
have. They came over last year to see
St Paul play with indianapolis, Column
bus, st. Joe, Kansas City, Milwaukee and
Detroit.
The chief rowdy gave out an interview
in Minneapolis that for Simon-pure cheek
takes the track and state records. He
says:
AS captain of the team had the right
to demand that the grounds be cleared
before my team resumed play, and when

crowd swarmed in after Mannassau.
regret the ending of the game as much
as any one, and I did my best to pro-
tect Mannassau, even telling the crowd
that it was all my fault, and asking
them to go off the diamond and let the
game so on. Mannassau did not forfeit
that game and he has no right to do so.
If the crowd gets on the diamond and
the home team cannot clear the grounds
in fifteen minutes the rules give the
game to the visitors. We were the Wis
itors, and we have right to. the game"
After the way he behaved, any SUCCESS
lions about clearing the field are fine.
Walter will get that game about the time
that the creditors of the Minnesota Saw
