Pretty Good Way to Treat such Alleged
Soldiers "A These.
London, July 25.-Details of the re,
markabIe case of persecution by
brother officers of Il young lieutenant
of the Second Life Guards at Windsor,
a regiment of which King Eward is
colonel-in-chief, show that in this
crack cavalry organization, like many
others. the officers are intOlerant of
the presence of any one who takes his
profession seriously. Second Lieuten-
ant G. ID. Gregson. who secured n COM
mission Feb. 10. 1902, was known to be
Il hard worker, efficient and popular
with his men.
On Monday night number of Off
GERS of the regiment chased Lieutenant
Gregson ont of his quarters. hunted
him through the barracks with whips,
at the same time using foul language;
ducked him in a horse trough until he
was half dead, and subsequently
wrecked his quarters and destroyed
his entire kit. The only explanation
for this treatment is that Lieutenant
Gregson, was socilly undesirable.

REMARKS OF .'NIoTHER" JONES
Judge Says They Are Anarchistio and
Communistic-Sentenc Suspended.

Judge Says They Are Anarchistic and
Sentence Suspended.
''The right of n citizen to labor for
wages that he is satisfied with is a
right protected by law and is entitled
to the same protection as free speech,
and should be better protected than
the abuse of free speech in which the
organizers and lgitators indulge in try
ing to produce strikes" The court re-
ferred to Mother Jones speech near
the Einnickinnick mines. saying her
utteranceS were the outgrowth of the
sentiments of those who believe in
communism and anarchy. Said the
judge:
The evidence showed that Mother
Jones called the miners slaves. said
she did not care anything for injunc-
tions; that it was duty to urge the
men at work to lay down their tools,
and advise the men to strike: that the
judge was hireling of the coal COM
pany. and the coal operators were all
robbers. She said in her speech to pay
no attention to Judge Jackson, or to
the court, but just make the miners
lay down their tools and come out.
1T is true that Mother Jones denied
Some of the statements of the wit
neSses. but her denial was not positive,
but equivOcal.' The court after rectt-
ing other acts in violation of the in
Junction concluded with: Il reach the
conclusion that the defendants in this
case who were served with notice of
this Injunction, have violated it, and
have treated with contempt the order
of this court"
Judge Jackson suspended judgment
in the case of Mother Jones. He
stated that she had been found guilty
of contempt, but as she is posing as
a martyr 1 will not send her to Jail
or allow her to force her way into
Jail" He said he would hold convic-
ton over her. and if she again violated
the injunction he would sentence her
heavily.
The u. NJ. w. counsel will apply for
writ of habeas corpus and will take
the cases to the supreme court of the
United States if necessary.

FLYING FROM DEATH
People Pour Into Port De
France Driven by Mont
PeIee'S WhirIWinds.
(By the Associated Press0

Fort De France, Martinique, Wed
Desday, May 21.-(4 p. m)-Streams of
frightened refugees have been pouring
into Fort De France from all he sur
rounding country. These people are not
destitute, but they are terrified. They
want only one thing. ard that is to be
taken far away from this island, with
which, they say, the gods are angry and
which they will destroy by fire before
it sinks under his sea.
The consuls here and the officials of
the war vessels in the harbor, are way
laid by scores of persons crazcd with
fear and begging 20 be carried away.
The T. S. Dixie, Captain Berry, from
New York arrived today. after a quick
and safe passage. The Dixie began land
ing her enormous cargo of supplies early
and the storehouses on shore soon be-
came congested. This is the greatest
difficulty of the administration.
This morning the u. S. S. Potomac,
with the commanders of the war vessels
now here, went to inspect St. Pierre.
With the greatest difficulty the party
succeeded in making landing. The CT
fects of the outburst of yesterday were
tremendous. The huge basalt towers and
walls were hurled fiat to the earth. The
bombardment of volcanic stones is not
sufficient to account for this and all
evidences point to the passage of fu-
rious blast of blazing gas, travelling at
enormous speed, and with incaiculable
force. The dopasit of boulders, ashes
and angular stones is enormous.
The second eruption was many times
more violent than that which effaced st
Pierre and swept it's people from the
earth nor has all volcanic activity
ceased. Vast columns of smoke and gas
still pour from the great crater. New
assures have opened on the mountain
sides and are vomiting yellow whirl
winds, which rush internationally now
from one point, and now from another
Bciling mud is also thrown out at times
in torrents that reach the sea and pro-

bill was finally passed by the committee
he was authorized to report it to the
Senate that he did so and drew the re-
port, which he was glad to say was very
satisfactory to the people of Winston
Salem.
Considering the long drawn out fight
over the Winston Salem bill in the COM
mittee, running through about three
meetings of the committee, he said it
seemed remarkable that the suggestion
should now be made that he had no part
in securing successful action upon this
bill He said that both he and Senator
Pritchard did all they could for the
Winston and Greensboro bills, but that
neither bill was passed to please him or
Senator Pritchard. They were both
passed upon their merits and neither
would have been passed unless the com
mittee had been convinced that they
were proper objects for the appropria-
ton of the peoples money. So far as
the credit was concerned, he cared moth
ing about that. His interest was. to Sc
cure the legislation, because he believed
these towns entitled to it.
That he did not desire to deprive Sen
ator Pritchard of any credit in these
matters to which he was entitled was
shown by the fact that after the Durham
bill had passed the committee and he
had drafted the report, he took the bill
and the report to Senator Pritchard and
requested him to call up the bill and Sc
cure its passage through the Senate, and
caused it to be announced in the papers
that Senator Pritchard would call up the
Durham bill and have charge of its
management in the Senate.
Senator Simmons said that he regret
ted to have TO go into the details of this
matter, but that he did not propose to
have the facts misrepresented.
