ROBERTSON ON TRIAL
REGULAR AND THREE SPECIAL VEN
IRES FOR JURORS EXHAUSTED
Fourth Special Venire Ixsued-Names of
of Witnesses for State and Defense
Probable rhat Trial VIII Occnpy All
the Week.

The trial of Thos Robertson for the
murder of John Hand near Olga on
the 18th day of February began in the
superior court Tuesday with Judge
Joiner OH the bench. The state is rep.
resented by County Attorneys Thacker
and King and JAS. A. Kerr, of Seattle,
of the law firm of Kerr & McCord
Mr.. Kerr is one of the leading attOr-
lleys of the state and prominent Re-
publican politician. Robertson is rep
resented by Philips & Peringer, of
Whatcon. Mr.. Kerr arrived from Sc
attIe Monday and Immediately went
in Douglas launch to Olga, accom-
panied by Mr.. King and Sheriff Firth,
to examine the scene of the tragedy
and interviewe some of the witnesses.
Mr.. Peringer came over Monday and
Judge Philips Tuesday morning.
Court convened Immediately upon the
arrival of Judge Joiner and his stenog-
rapher aud at once began the work of
securing IA jury. The regular venire of
twenty-tour was exhausted about 2:30
p. III and special venire of twelve was
issued, made returnable Immediately,
and then another venire of six, return
able at 7:30 p. M, and, following that,
one of twelve, returnable at 10 Il. III.
yesterday. At noon another venire
was issued, upon which the return had
not been made at the time the ISL
ANDER went to press. 1t was expected
that the attorneys would be able to
complete the jury from this panel and
that the taking of testimony would
probably begin this morning. 1t is
likely that the trial will occupy all the
week and this probability was the
cause of the eXcusing of Chas. Tiff yes
terday. He is a Seventh Day Advent
ist and declared that he would not
take any part in jury deliberations on
Saturday Following are the names of
the witnesses subp9naed:
For state-Ella Moore, Mary Robert

"a MALICIOUS LIE"
Charges Against G. w. Ide so Pronounced
by Chairman of State Committee

Charges Against C. w. Ide so Pronounced
by Chairman of State Committee
A desperate effort is being made by
Senator Foster to prevent the confirma-
ton of the nomination of G. w. Ide to
he collector of customs Of the Puget
Sound district. He is said to have
filed With the senate committee on
commerce, to which the nomination
was referred, an affidavit alleging that
when Senator Wilson was candidate
for the senate in 1895, Mr.. Ide, who
was then prominent member Of the
state senate, offered one of his COLI
leagues $1,000 to vote for Wilson. In
the opinion of prominent Republicans
throughout the state the charges are
absolutely false and malicious. An
Olympia dispatch to the Tacoma
Ledger quotes Chairman Schively, of
the Republican state committee, as
saying:
"The charge is malicious lie. was
member of the legislature that elected
Mr.. Wilson to the United States senate,
and was chairman of the steering com-
mittee of the northwest combination,
whose change of votes from John s. Me-
Millin to Mr.. Wilson elected the latter. /
know positively that neither Mr.. Ide nor
anyone else offered any money for votes
for Wilson. MIR. Ide is a man above re-
proach, but those who make the charges
are not"
The dispatch further says:

land commissioners office, was mem
ber of tbs same legislature from San Juan
county, and was one of the staunch sup
porters of John s. McMillin, Of Roche

principles of trades unionism, said to

large companies have not yet assent
ed to the proposed outside agreement,
but that in all probability they will
consent and continue TO work as a
unit as they did during the strike. The
Philadelphia and Reading Coal and
Iron company has not yet been heard
from on the matter. Those which are
are the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western, the Lehigh Valley, the Della
ware and Hudson and the Erie COM
pany, which controls the Pennsylvania
Coal company and the Hillside Coal
and Iron company.
1t has been realized that at least two
OF the four demands of the miners
those for uniform wage scale and
the weighing of coal-cannot be salts
factorily settled in the hearing room,
but must be fixed up at the mines.
The proposition to have the mine work
ers only, and not as it is done in the
bltuminous states. where the operators
have state or district organizations
which recognize the United Mine
Workers, does not carry with it rec
ognition of that union, and on that
ground it is not likely that the two
parties will he able to settle it with
out resort to the arbitration commits
sion.
The testimony yesterday was mostly
given by doctors, who were positive
that mining coal was most unhealthy
business. DR.. Roberts asserted that
the situation during the late strike was
state of war and that ''both parties
were Incorporate. He thought $575
was enough to maintain United
States standard of living for family

Incapable Old Man and His Army
Bureaucratic Machine

Chicago, Nov 24.-The Salvation
Army, labor unions, and the Greek
church were the three targets at which
Dowie hurled his shafts at the Audi
forum. Of General Booth and his
army DoWie said:
''Any army that holds an indepen-

to secular nor ecclesiastical law is a
danger to the commonwealth The
original idea which formed the basis
of the Salvation Army when that great

It is said It was all brought about
by both sides seeing that the pro-
ceedings before the commission would
be interminable, and that in the in
termingling, of the lawyers for both
sides the outside agreement PROPOSE
ton was broached and taken I'D. 1t
cannot be officially stated which par
ty made the proposition first. The
attorneys for both sides are averse to
talking, but those who were inclined
to say something differ in their state
ments. An attorney for one of the
railroads said it came from the miners
side, while ore lawyer for the miners
said it was a spontaneous PROPOSE
ton
1t is generally believed. however.
that the operators We're the first to
make the proposition. Wayne Mac
Veagh is given credit for bringing
about the present situation. The COM

turn of affairs, and acquiesced in the
proposed arrangement. The subject
