coEUR D'ALENE REPORT.
Minority Claim Made That There

Federal I roopB.

(.
Minority Glnim Made That There
Was No kioting and No Need For
Federal I roops.
Washington, June e.-The minority
report on the Occur d'Alene investiga
ton was given out today by Represen-
tatiwe Lentz OF Ohio and Hay Of Vir-
giDia, who drafted it.
The minority point out that the evil
'dence taken during the investigation
shows there was absolutely no rioting
in Shoshone county, Idaho, after April
20, 1893; that when the United States
troops arrived upon the scene quiet
had been restored, and no resistance
was being made to the state authori-
ties.
1t is maintained by the minority that
the troops sent to Idaho by the presi-
dent of the United States continued to
be under control OF the president and
that the military commander In COM
mand could only use the troops in aid
OF the civil authorities OF the state ia
and is still keeping soldiers in that com
munity and by SO doing is unfolding q
tyrannical course Of conduct pursued by
the governor of Idaho.
The minority point out five fragrant
instances OF abuse Of power and viola-
ton Of law by Gen. Merriam, the COM
mander of the troops:
First - General Merriam arrested
without warrant the entire male popu-
lation of that town. con1istinG Of about
800 persona.
"second-Gen. Merriam rent q d.

tachment Of troops into the state of
Montana for the purpose Of arresting
fugitives from Idaho.
"Third-Lieut. Lyon, by threats OF
violence, forced certain citizens TO work
in the Tiger Poor1nan mine against
their will.
Fourth-Maj. Smith suppressed the
Mullan Mirror, a newspaper published
at Mullan, thus denying free speech
and a free press.
Fifth-The permit system, in fact
blacklist system, approved by Gen.
Merriam and kept in operation to this
day by the presence of the military
forcesNof the United States, is a viola
ton of law which can not be defended.
In summing up, the minority say they
'sare satisfied from the evidence adj
duced before the committee that Gen.
Merriam was wholly mistaken as to
his powers and duties; that his conduct
has resulted in the gravest injuries to
the liberty of the citizens and the rights
of individuals. Innocent men have been
kept in prison for months without trial,
and have been finally discharged with
out any charges being preferred against
them.
"Altho the governor of Idaho has for.
a year and more been governing Sho--
shone county by martial law, he has
never called the legislature together;
the laws of Idaho provide that session
of the legislature can be called on TWEEN
lty days notice. The minority hold that
the president is not justified in keeping
United States soldiers indefinitely in
shoshone comfy at the mere will of one
man, when the legislature, representa-
| tive of the people, could have been, and
ought to be. convened and their wishes
lascertained."
The majority report was also COM
Ipleted yesterday and submitted to the
minority members, but it will not be
made public until approved by the
house military committee. which con-

COURT PROTECTED BY RAYONErs

Richmond, Va, May % --Advices
from Boydton, where STEPHEN Baptist,
the negro is on trial for the murder Of
Mr.. Peter Jones' are to the eff-ct that
to-day was an uneasy one there When,
yesterday the court, with he prisoner
under guard of the Richmond military,
visited the scene of the murder, which
is near Buffalo Springs, a crowd
gathered, and at one time it was
thought that an attempt would be made
TO take Baptist and lynch him, but the
party got back tC Boydton without
trouble. This morning a crowd came to
RoydtOn from the neighborhood Of the
murdered mans home, and there were
Dminous mutterings, which resulted in
the courts being held under the pro-
lection of the bayonet. The military
stood in line just in the rear of the bar.
After the argument, however, the
crowd seemed satisfied that the jury
would tomorrow bring in a verdict Of
guilty, and dispersed to their homes.
At midnight, the report was that the
situation was unchanged.

TWENTY-FIVE LIVES LOST

Safety camp -Heartrending III Scenes
at the Entrance O the Nine-Bodies

Raleigh, n. c., May 23.-Twenty-two
miners, ten white men aid twelve ne
groes, lost their lives in an explosion
at Cumnock coal mines, Chatham coun-
ty, y. c., yesterday afternoon. The ex-
plOsfon occurred at 4:30 o'clock and is
supposed to have been caused by a
broken gauge in a safety lamp The ac-
cideht was in what is known as the
east heading, and between forty and
fifty men were in the mine at the
time. Five were brought out alive from
the east heading, while none of the men
in the other parts of the mine were in
jured
The names of the killed are as fol-
lows:
White-John Connolly, mine superin-
tendent; Joe Glass, James Mccarthy,
Wesley Clegg, John Gatewood, William
Tyson, John Hankey, John Willett. Ro-
bert Gatewood and one unknown.
Colored-Sim Mcintyre, Joe Fagin,
Robert Reeves, Joe Taylor, John Lee
Palmer, Peter Palmer, Dan Goldston,
VIII Reeves, Allie Bynum Jim Maks,
Jim Palmer, John Hubbard.
The scenes at the entrance to the
mine where many of the wives and
children of the dead men gathered,
We're heartrending. The bodies of the
victims of the explosion were prepared
for burial, and the funerals of several
took place to-day. John Connolly, the
mine superintendent came to this
State about three years ago from Pitts
burg, Pa. He leaves a wife and three
small children.
The mines are situated at Cumnock
IN Chatham county, about six miles from
Sanford. They have been long used in
a desultory way, but in 1898, Samuel
Ahenzy, of Philadelphia, organized a
company and put in modern machinery
There are two shafts, one a small
affair for ventilation, and the other, the
main working shaft, is by II feet, and
is considerably more than 500 feet in
depth.
In December, 1895, an explosion took
place at this same mine, in which
-forty-three lives were lost This ex-
plosion was caused by a fire damp,
though many Of those killed on this oc-
casion lost their lives from the result
ing explosion of almost two hundred
and fifty pounds of dynamite that was
stored in the mines. Two other explo-
sions occurred here many years ago.

PROHIBITIONISTS TO FIGHT THE
DISPENSARY LAW

Columbia, S. c., May 23.-The Prohibf-
tionists of the State held a conference
here tonight at which a large number
of counties were represented, and decided
to make a determined fight against the
States liquor traffic and for prohibition.
Colonel James A. Hoyt, of Greenville,
was nominated for Governor and Colonel
James L. Tribble, of Anderson, for LEU
tenant-Governor. Nominations for other
State officers were not made, but the
support of the Prohibitionists will be
given candidates who come out on their
platform. The fight is all with the Demo
cratic party, and viii be settled in the
Democratic primary. There will be coun-
ty-to-county campaign, in which the dis
pensary will be supported by the present
Governor Miles B. McSweeny, and b.
Frank B. Gary, Speaker of the House.
and A II. Peterson, both of whom are
dispensary candidates for Governor. In
the primary two days ago c. =. Feather
stone volunteered to champion supposedly
hopeless cases and was beaten by G w
ernor Ellerbee, but by few votes.
Featherstone decline to enter the race
this year. Prohibition carried the State in
1892, and the dispensary law as enacted
as a compromise between saloons AMI an
tron-clad prohibition. The Prohibirioaiats

ued at about $115o0o. and buildings at

CHANGE OF KENTUCKY Off
GALS.

Frankfort, KY, May 22.-The Ken
lucky authorities viii not attempt to
mandamus Governor Mount, of Indiana,
to honor the reQuisition of Governor
Beckham for the arrest of Finley. The
opinion prevails that the matter is
wholly within the province of the Gov
ernOr of the State, and that no legal
action can be maintained to enforce the
requisitiOn.
Governor Beckham issued an order
to-day dismissing the Democratic SOL
diers, and they will leave for home to-
morrow. In transferring the militia
from the Republican to the Democratic
administration, former Adjutant-Ge
eral Collier said to his successor: I'm
my opinion it is due to you more than
any one else in Kentucky that trouble
has been aVerted."
Adjutant-General Castleman replied:
ST beg to say that the State owes far
more to you. The conditions have been
constantly menaCing to the public
peace, to a degree best known to you
and me. You have been forbearing and
fair minded always"
