The above telegram was shown to the
committee, Lewis George and Pat Roo
ney, last night at the Walker. They
said that they would obey the order
and-return to Scofield Saturday, unless
some further order to the contrary
should be received in the meantime.
They thought that the company must
have made some concession to the min
ers OF which they had not heard.
The committee representing the SEQ
field miners met with the legislative
committee of the Federation of Labor
in the Federation building and dis
cussed with them various amendments
to the truck store bill, mining bill and
the eight-hOur law. It was decided To
ask the attorney general for his Opin
ion as to the legality Of amending the
eight-hOur law, making it a miSde
meanOr for any company to hire men
to work more than eight hours a shift.
The amendment to the mining bill is
to regulate the weighing and stamping
of cars used at the mines for hauling
coal out of the mines. The strongest
objection, however, is made to the
truck store bill. To this bill efforts
will be made to add an amendment
making it unlawful for a company to
take from a mans wages the amount
he may owe the company or any other
store or boarding house.
The committee also met for a short
time last night with the Machinists'
Trade union and the Lathers' union.
Expressions of sympathy were extend
ed by both unions to the strikers.

ment he claimed 10 have made, that
the bill would be declared to have
passed. Notwithstanding the governor s
objections.
Then Williams moved the Drevious
question, and it was ordered. There were
q number of explanations during the
roll call. Anderson said he was salts
fed with the explanation Of the speaker,
but he was not prepared to vote. He
thought the Tribune report might have
been made under a Misrepresentation of
the real facts. Anderson was excused
from voting.
In casting an Affirmative, Axton said
that if any .inadvertence had been
committed it was by the house itself,
and not by the speaker, and if anybody
had TO be censured it should be the
house instead of the speaker. Cutler
thought the speaker had been unjustly
assailed, and he voted for the resolu-
ton. Evans made a similar talk, and
cast the same vote
Don c. Johnson. Kelly and Pond bore
testimony to the correctness of Glas-
mann's position when they cast their
votes.
