SCARED GAMBLERS.
Bomb Explosion in Chicago Spreads
Terror in the Locality.

Chicago, Nov. 23.-An explosion,
that was heard for blocks in the down,
town district, occurred tonight in the
rear of gambling resort in South
Clark street. While no one was seri-
ously injured the explosion caused
widespread scare and attracted hum
dreds of persons to the scene. It was
the fourth similar occurrence of the
week, the cause being bomb in each
case. The object apparently was to
frighten the gamblers.
Nearly every window in the rear of
the building was blown in and the
gamblers were in state of terror.
Twelve girls employed in the tailor
shop of A. Antler, on the fourth floor,
felt the full force of the explosion and
were panic stricken. Guests OF the
Morrison hotel, the rear Of which Is
close by, fed from their rooms. De-
tectives have been unable to learn
anything definite as to the perpetra-
tors.

WATKINS MUST STAND TRIAL
Judge Loud Opposes Departure from
Usual Proceedings.

Usual Proceedings.
From Mondays Daily Gazette.
E. B. Goodall, uncle of P. D. Wat
kins of Billings, was in the city yes
terday comforting with Judge Loud,
says last Saturdays Yellowstone
Journal Watkins is the man who
was arrested at Billings for passing
forged checks, and whose case will!
soon come up for trial. He pursued
the business of passing these checks
in Toronto, Kalispell and other towns
and was caught at Billings. An ef-
fort was made by his friends to have
County Attorney Hathhorn of Billings
dismiss the case, but he alleged
properly, that he had no option in
the matter, which lay with the dis
trict Judge. Accordingly Mr.. Goodal]
came to Miles City last night to in
terview Judge Loud to see if any
thing could be done toward having
the case dismissed.
The Judge said he would have tc
see the prisoner and have talk with
him. He sees no reason at present
why any special favors should be
shown or for departing from the us
ual procedure; He will insi1t on the
prisoner being tried, unless verj
weighty reasons fer the opposite pro
ceeding are adduced.

THE N. P. RoBBER.
Circumstances Connect Man Killed in
California With the Holdup.

Oakland, CAL, Nov. 23.As the re-
suit of being struck by local train
while walking along the Oakland rail-
way yards last night Valdenir VOigt,
about so years of age, who may be
the robber who held UP the Northern
Pacific train at Bearmouth, Mont, on
October 26, lies dead at the morgue,
and his companion, Earl Smith, claim
ing to hail from Portland, Ore, is suf-
ferng from a broken leg and other
injuries The men had beaten their
way from the north and were run
down while walking away from the
terminus of the railway.
The string which connects Voigt
with the robbery is that in his own
handwriting, in a note book, is copy
of the reward offered by the Northern
Pacific. He had also two Northern
Pacific money order receipts. Voigt
was at Butte, Mont, 70 miles from
the scene of the robbery, three days
after the hold-up.

they would be able to route the min
els, ncrse, foot and dragons, as soon
as the formal examinations were in
ssituted before the commission. They
lelt confident that they could over
como President Mitchell and show
from the character of his testimony
that the miners were in the wrong.
Eul Mr.. Mitchell fooled them. He
was splendid witness for his side
which was stronger at the close of
his examination than when that ex-
animation was begun.
The next step in the investigation
beforc the commission, unless the
hearings are called off, will be an in
udiry into the character Of the alleg.
ed anthracite coal combine, and Mr..
Mitchell and his attorneys on this
pint are ''loaded for bear"
The operators soon found this out,
and the overtures for settlement
came very quickly thereafter. The
promised disclosures would Indirectly
affect every trust interest in the coun-
try and turn the full light of day on
their operations just as the president
of the United States is writing a
strong trust message for congress,
and that body is preparing for ad-
vanced legislation on that question.
TO call public attention anew to the
trust at such a time, the operators
felt would be unwise. So they have
offered to grant practically every de-
mans Of the miners without proceed
ing further with the investigation be-
fore the commission.
The miners have been anxious to
| get their evidence of the existence
Of a combination of the coal roads
before the commission and the coun-
| try. Their case has been worked up
carefully, end is said to be fiawless.
No wonder the operators seem ready
to quit. Their cause has been dam
aged by the evidence already taken
as to the health of the miners, the
shortness of life in the mining coun-
try, the prevalence of child labor, and
the general starvation conditions
which prevail. But the evidence as
to the responsibility for such condi-
tions was still in reserve.
The existence and methods of the
combination of coal hauling roads
were still to be exploited. The
strategic move to the rear came
as necessary result Of circumstances.
It is said here that the financial
intrestss especially the railroad IN
terests of Wall street, went to J. P.
Morgan and told him that if Mr..
Mitchell and his attorneys we're per-
mitted to put before the country the
information they had collected re-
garding trust methods. all the trusts
might as well so out Of business.

OPERATORS AND COAL DIGGERS
TALK COMPROMISE.
COAL ROADS ARE SCARED
Fear Evidence to Be Produced Will
Show Existence Of an Un-
lawful Combination.

Scranton, Pa. Nov. 23.-The anthra-
cite coal strike commission adjourn
ed yesterday to meet on December
3, and it is the hope and expectation
of all parties to the controversy that
when the arbitrators again meet an
agreement on all points in dispute
will be ready for submission to and
approval by the commissioners.
Those who are conducting the nego-
tiations on both sides express the
opinion that an amicable adjustment
will be reached, and predict that the
commissioners will make only one
more trip to this city.
Before adjourning sub, or con
ciliatory,' committee was appointed
in order that the wishes of the COM
mission may be officially made known
with regard to any matter that may
! arise in the interval. The commits
sioners want it understood that they
have the last say in the ad ;ustment of
| the differences. And that whatever
is ag,eed ul On mr ! have their full
approval belize the agreement can
be put in operation. The sub-com-
mittee, which is made up Of Com
missioner Watkins, Parker and Clark
this afternoon called into conference
as many of the attorneys representing
all parties before the commission as
could be gathered on short notice,
and stated to them the sttttude of the
commission.
The individual operators between
80 and 40 of whom are represen led
before the commission, are disposed
to object to the way matters have
been progressing. MI. Burns, one OF
their attorneys, blousnt the matter
before the commission today and said
| the individual operators wanted to
be consulted in whatever agro ements,
regarding the proceedings before the
commission, may be M de. In all the
| has so far taken place, he said that
| the operators led not lcen consulted,
although they had nc onJec,'on to a
10 days adjou1nmcot.
Chairman Gray, for the commission,
had a long colloquy with Mr.. Burns,
in which Judge Gray gave the indie
pendent operators to understand that
the commissioners will net abrogate
their duty, and that whatever astee-
ments tending toward settlement OF
the questions al issue have been ef'
fected, were made by the parties to
