UTAH UNION MEN WANT
FEDERAL PRISONER RELEASED

After having stepped between Louis
Crawford and a hopeless term of i'm
prisonment the Utah Federation Of
Labor is about to launch another eff
fort in his behalf Crawford, a Doug
las. Wyo., stone cutter. who stood high
in union ranks, is a federal prisoner
at Alcatraz, Cal, serving a six years
term for violating the martial law de-
clared by General Merriam during the
reign Of terror at Occur d'Alene, Ida.
The original sentence was thirteen
years, but through the ceaseless efforts
of the federation it was reduced to sin.
Crawford was not affiliated with the
Utah body in any way, but because of
the disorganized condition of labor
unions in Idaho his friends and rel
atives appealed to the federation as
the nearest body of sufficient weight
to WELD influence at Washington. Pres
ident Mckinley was appealed to by the
labor leaders of Salt Lake City and
Judge King and Senator Rawlins en-
listed their efforts in the struggle with
the result that Secretary of War Nick
lejOhn reduced the sentence as already
described.
CrawfOrd's friends have again sought
the good offices Of the Utah Federation
of Labor The prisoner is in failing
health and his sister at Douglas fears
that unless the prison doors are opened

ton has been given full consideration
and Secretary Daniel Elton has been
given authority to appeal 10 President
Roosevelt. Senators Kearns and Raw
Inns and Congressman Sutherland for
clemency in the case of the imprisoned
uniOnist
The form in which the memorial VIII
be presented has not yet been deter
mined. CrawfOrd's Offense was unique
and his case is perhaps without a
parallel. Several years ago he joined
the regular army, going to Denver 10

union and withdraw in good standing
When the Occur d'Alene trouble broke
out the command to which he was at
tached was sent to the scene and placed
on guard duty at the compound Where
hundreds of strikers were herded as
prisoners.
Crawford's zeal as a uniOnist over
weighed his military ardor and he was
arrested charged with making 1t pos
sible for the prisoners to send commu-
nications to their striking companions
and lending comfort to them in other
ways. He was given a cOurt-martlal
found guilty and sentenced to thirteen
wears at hard labor His fellow union
lists have determined that, much as
they have accomplished, renewed et-
forts shall be made in his behalf and
no stone left unturned that viii AID IN

in the United States circuit court an
application for an injunction to re-
strain the state board of equalization

lions for the year 1900, as per the writ
of mandamus recently issued By Judge
Thompson.
The Union Traction company and the
Consolidated company were among the
public utility corporations hit by Judge

calculated millions Of dollars in taxes
would accrue TO the state. Mr.. Craw-
ford notified members of the board
of eouaIiZers of the application for a
restraining order and all viii be IN

has promised to listen to arguments.
IL is under the fourteenth amend
ment to the constitution OF the United
States that the traction companies seek
relief. The fourteenth amendment
guarantees the right that private prop

process of law. The complaint alleges
that the process which the supreme

PLANS ARE WORKING SMOOTHLY

and I am convinced that it will go
through. but you know that large
bodies move slowly and in this matter
there are many details to be worked
out. 1t is up to the capitalists now,
and ! am resting I am simply here
at this time for a little outing at the

Mr.. Mckenzie stated that he had
given out no figures on the proposition
except those published in The Herald
some time ago; that he did not yet
know for what amount the organiza-
ton would be capitalized, but was still
of the opinion that it would take about
81. 900 900 to swing the deal.

WOMAN WOULD
NOT BE BLUFFED
Refused to be Driven From Gold
Fields.
Her LIFE WAS THREATENED
NOME MINING SHARKS WANTED
CLAIM SIZE LOCATED.
HEa LIFE WAS THREATENED

san Francisco, Nov. 14.-Mrs. Requa,
who was the first white woman in
Nome and who has figured in mining
litigation, was one Of the witnesses in
the contempt proceedings before Com
missioner HeccOck. In telling how she
staked out claim No. {, beloW on Anvil
creek, Mrs. ReQua said.
Il Staked that claim out of senti-
ment On my way TO Nome I met
John Dexter. He was partially para
lyZed and I felt sorry for him. He
han staked the claim known as No. +,
and I knew he considered it his heart s
blood. When in Nome L overheard two
men who pretended to be his friends
say he would have to take mis- chances,
as they intended TO stake the claim. 1
then went out and staked il, with the
idea that 1 would give Mr.. Dexter a
Gear title.
Later two men-one of them Harry
Campbell-came to me and said if 1
did not 90 and file an abandonment
they would put me out Of Anvil creek.
They remarked that some men could
shoot straight and added that when
soldiers came I would be sent to st.
Michael 1 told them I had come to
stay and they could send soldiers
Later they claimed the affair was a
joke"
Mrs. Requa said the records kept by
Dr.. KettlesOn were in poor condition;
that altera tons were made, entire
pages removed and records changed
from day to day. She said mission
aries and some of the military officers
had claims.
District Attorney Joseph K Woods
concluded his testimony. He refused
to disclose what was sald at confer
ence between Judge Noyes, Marshal
Vawter and himself when it is claimed
the $50, 900 matter was discussed. AT
that stage Marshal Vawter arose and
told Wood that, as far as he was con-
cerned. he was privileged to tell what
was said. Wood declined. The witness
Acknowledged ne was not on friendly
terms with Judge Noyes now.

MAKING FIGHT
FOR HIS LIFE
sioIineux Wants the indictment
Against Him Quashed.
ARGUMENT MADE IN COURT
TWO EX-GoVERNoRS OF NEW
York ON OPPOSITE SIDES.

New York. Nov 1.-Two former
governors of New York. David B. Hill
and Frank $. Black. met in argument
today in the court Of general sessions
on the motion to quash the Indictment
charging Roland B. Molineux with the
murder by mailed poison of Mrs. Kath-
crime j. Adams. Mohneux was once
convicted and sentenced to death, but
the court of appeals gave him new
trial for error on the part Of the trial
court.
Mr.. Hill. associated with Assistant
! District Attorney Osborne, opposed in
| behalf of the state the motion to quash,
and Mr.. Black joined with Weeks,
Battle & Marshall and former Dis
triCt Attorney William K. OlcOtt in
pressing the motion in behalf of the
alleged prisoner.
General Edward MolineuX, father Of
/ the prisoner. came to court in company
with General HoratiO c. King and
Frederick w. Devoe. A great crowd
filed the courtroom and stretched out
through the open doors.
Mr.. Black i'm opening discussed the
/ power of the court to entertain the
motion and quoted number Of au-
thorities 10 snow that it had the power
to do so. Mr.. Black explained that the
motion of the defendant was. either to
dismiss the Indictment or give the de
] PENDANT permission to examine the
( minutes of the grand jury and allow
/ the proposition to dismiss stand pend
/ ing the result of the examination of
/ the minutes.
No Legal Evidence.
/ He asserted that no legal evidence
? h4.T Cd To 17o nd inn
and recited the declaration of the
/ court of appeals that the Barnett tes-
I timOny was not competent. He in
sisted that if the indictment rested in
/ whole or in part on the Barnett evil
dence. it could not stand. He said
that Molineux had been sentenced to
death on expert testimony.
Mr., Hill asserted that the motion
/ was a dilatOry one and that a new
trial having been ordered, it should be
/ proceeded with. He characterized tbs
motion to examine the minutes as q
fishing excursion and said it had al
ready been denied by Justice BlanCh-
ard. He also said that the prisoner, by
pleading to the Indictment had reCOg-
nized it and that he could not there
after attempt to inspect the minutes.
Mr.. HiH reviewed the evidence sub
mitted to the grand jury and said
1.-THE motive was established. DeatT
was established. Murder was estab-
lished. A crime was established"
Commenting on the deductions of The
defense from the court Of appeals de-
cision as to the admission of writings
Mr. Hill said: All these murderer,
would have to do if you take theil
view Of the decision would be to pu
some thing offensive IN their letter!
and then the letters could be held a!
