Chicago, June 2O.-Mayor Jones Of To-

growth OF trusts within the last few
months rather complacently.
II believe in a large programme for So

privilege in this respect TO find plan big
enough TO provide for all the people and
see in the growth OF the trust an indica-

THE triumph Of the trusts is one OF the

tenth century, but they are an economic
development, strictly IN me OF progress

Special Dispatch to the Standard
Boise, Idaho, July 23.-Word comes
from Lewiston over the long distance
telephone to the effoc. that while the
Indians on the NeZ Perce reservation
have outwardly submitted to the
agreement of their chiefs to permit
work on the North rn Pacific grade
through the reservation to proceed,
still the young bucks continue to mani
fest an ugly spirit, which is brutalizei
by liquor furnished by white men. The
bucks will not be satisfied, it seems,
till they kill some one. They threaten
to swoop down on the grad rs again as
they did few days ago, this time not
to scare them off. but to murder.
There are no soldiers there and the
United States marshal has made no
effort to kive the workingmen ade-
quate protection. Deputy n arshals at
the scene report that trouble of seri-
Gus nature seems unavoidable unless
liquor can be kept away from the
young bucks or a military force is sta
toned to protect the graders. Large
quantities of liquor Lave been con-
fiscated, but there seems to be no end
of the resoufcefulness of the thirsty
savages.
The unf1inching nerve Of Agent Stran-
ahan saved his life. In order to prevent
unnecessary excitement Stranahan did
not reveal the true temper of the In
dians, but he now advises that the sit
uation at that time was very much
more strained than he cared to disclose
then. During the exc ted interview
with the Indian chiefs and others,

near the corner saw a mysterious man
in the buggy. He said he noticed the
buggy drive up there and stop and
saw the man get out. He fumbled
about the rails for minute or two and
then jumped into the buggy and drove
away at gallop.
There seems to be no doubt now that
Mayor Farley will call the three or
four available military companies in
the city, in addition to those now under
arms. The call will include the bat
terry of artillery, and the governor may
be requested to send other troops to
the city.
In the vicinity of the Holden avenue
barns tonight there was continuous
rioting for three or four hours. Every
car that passed was attacked with
stones and several pistol shots were
fired at them. There was lively fusi-
lade at one time the non-union crews
returning the fire. The only person
hurt was a woman. who was shot in
the finger, as she stood in her doorway.
The police made 25 arrests in that
neighborhood.
Rioting continued all along Broad
way tonight and it look three squads
of police as many hours to escort three
cars a distance of four miles to the
barns. Fifteen or twenty of the rioters
We're taken into custody.
Later reports from those injured show
that they were hurt much worse than
was at first supposed. 1t is now stated
that Mrs. Harris suffered a fracture of
the skull and may die, while A. F.
Smith had both legs broken. Three or
four persons in addition to those whose
names are given above were hurt, but
none SERIOUSLY.
