A LIGHT MAY TERM OF COURT
Only Two Criminal Cases, and They
Will Be Short-Elk Butchers
I'm For Trial

Up EUR 4I1d4.
Special to the Inter Mountain.
Anaconda, May 1.-The regular May
term of the Second district court will
open at the county court house next
Monday morning with Judge Napton
presiding. Criminal cases will be rather
scarce during the May session, there be-
ing only two in that line to come up
for trial.
One is that of John Gallagher who
stands accused of the rape of little Mary
Ellen Lappan, whose parents are esti
mable people residing at the present
time near Willow Creek down in the
valley.
The other case is that of the three
elk killers, A. Meihoffer and others,
who undertook to bag game out of the
season allowable by law in the vicin-
ity of Helmville last fall. The three
mer implicated in the affair were ar
rested by Tom Mullen who was then
deputy under Sheriff Conley and sta
toned at Helmvilie. The men were at
caught in the act of killing elk, but
when the deputy ran onto their camp
he found them in possession Of large
quantity of meat, some of which they
had packed in barrels and We're bring
ing out for shipment to Anaconda.
There are large number of untried
cases on the criminal calendar, and no
doubt god many will be set for trial
during the May term.

The machinists and moulders were not
ready this morning to declare the strike
off, for the reason that their union has
not yet been recognized, and the com>
pany does not seem to be willing to give
the recognition they ask.
"OtherWise," said one of the mach;r.
lists, who has taken prominent part In
the strike, 1--WE are very we'll satisfied.
The difference of five cents a day does
not cut any figure with us. But Mr..
Hickey has made the statement that he
does not propose to put any more mea
to work, and we believe that he does
not intend to take back the men who
went out three weeks ago.
I'VE believe that the concession woul:,
not have been made had it not been for
the strike, and we still insist that the
union should have recognition before tn.
strike is declared off,
Dispute Over Agreement.
When seen this afternoon, Superia-
tendent Hickey stated that the nine
hour day and present scale of wages
granted the men at the foundry depart
ment this morning is what he promise
the men two months ago would be done
on the LIST of May. He also stated tina,
the department had been reduced to
repair shop, and the force employed at
present would not be increased.
George O'Connor, John Bleoo and E. r.
Darling, representing one Of each of tho
committees from the machinists thai:
have waited on Mr.. Hickey, called at the
Inter Mountain office this afternoon ana
denied the statement that Mr.. Hickey
had offered at any time to grant a Mines
hour day on May l. They also stated
that their proposition to sign an agre.>
ment to settle the strike with a nine
hour day, to take effect on May 20, We.
rejected by Mr.. Hickey.

Anaconda, May 1.-President William
Scallon, of the Anaconda Copper Mining
company, issued an important order yes
terday afternoon relative to the labor
employed at the foundry department of
that corporation, where a strike of ma
chinists has been in operation for about
two months. and where the members Of
the MOulders'. union have refused to
work for about half that time
Superintendent John S. Hickey re-
ceived orders between and O'Clock
yesterday afternoon to grant those who
are still in the employ of the company
and those who may be employed here
after, a nine-hour working day, and the
order reads that the hours shall be from
Z a. m. to - o'clock noon. and from
to D. M, with the schedule of labor
remaining the same as it has been here
tOfore when 10 hours constituted a work.
ing day. Mr.. hickey says the only ex-
ception to this is in the case of a few
first class machiniSts who will he allow
ed a little more.
Meet All Their Demands
Under the new order of things, the
company has been allowed practically
what the strikers were contending for.
The machinists walked out because
uperintendent Hickey refused to pay
them As cents an hour for nine hours
work, while they were getting 40 cents
an hour for ten hours. There is now
only cents a day difference between
what the men demanded and what the
company has granted them, for, under
the order the men aAe to be paid as
much for nine hours as they formerly
got for 10 hours work.
AS. to overtime, Superintendent HEX
ey declares that 1t is proposed to also
pay the men time and half for over
time on Sundays and holidays, which is
Just what the striking men demanded.
The moulders. however, wanted $3.50 per
day for ten hours. or an increase Of
80 cents above what they had been ac-
customed to getting.
Welcomed in the City.
The citizens Of Anaconda are gratfiel
at the happy conclusion, and rejoice that
the difficulties which. at one time, SEEM
ed so threatening, are about to pass off.
One thing is certain, the strike has
done an injury to the town and it will
take the business firms some little time
to recover, even after conditions, get
back to their normal state again. But
now that the friction is over, every one
looks forward to an abundance of pros
perity this summer and fall.
