WANT NEW UNION.
Miners Would Break Loose From
Western Federation.

Grippe Greek, Sept. A petition
is in circulation among the miners of
the district asking the American Fed.
eration of Labor for charter for a
miners union.
Tonight the petition has between
100 and l75 names attached. most of
them being of miners in this end of
the camp.
The purpose of the new organiza-
tion is to enable the miners, as union
men, to return to work under union
conditions for employers against whom
they have no grievance. Undor their
present utilization with the Western
Federation of Miners the men who
have signed the petition feel that
they cannot return to work without
being called ''scabs.' aud they are
anxious to find remedy for the situa.
tion. Names of non union and union
men alike are attached to this petition
and the new movement is attracting a
considerable amount Of attention.
President Meyer is in Denver and is
not expected to return for some days
unless some radical action is taken
by the contepding forces However,
this is not likely to happen as neither
side shows indication OF yielding from
the stand first taken.

A Close Call.

A serious accident was narrowly
averted on the road between Donne~
Lake and Truckee Saturday night a.
bout 10 o'clock and that someone was
not injured was due to streak of good
luck. H. Nicely and son had been to
the Lake during the day and were
headed for Truckee, driving along at a
pretty good pace. John Sheriff.
whose family is camping at the Lake
was going up. Both gentlemen were
driving single rigs and in the dark it
was difficult to see more than a few
feet in 'front.' AS a consequence both
rigs were upon each other and a col
lision had taken place before the men
realized their danger. The shafts on
Mr.. Serritt's rig was broken while d
spring on Mr.. Neeley's cart was de-
mOlished. The parties were consid-
erably shaken up, but fortunately no.
injured. The horses escaped without
. scratch.

it appears that he filled UP on liquor

some manner he secured revolver
and belt of cartridges and began to
amuse himself by shooting at residents
of the place. He was disarmed and
arrested by Mr. Patterson. This after
noon he was taken before Justice If

Continuing its narrative from yester-
day Of the shooting affair at Love

The prisoners were taken two at a
time into the room in which Welsh
lay dying. Beside DR.. Giroux, Hos
pital superintendent Hurst, the Dis
trict Attorney and officers there were
several other persons present. Cor.
man and Roberts, the latter a mere
boy, were brought into the room first
Welsh, who was very weak, but per-
fectly conscious, was first asked if H.,
knew German. Looking at him in
tently for moment he said: yes,
you were one Of the men that robbed
me but you did not shoot me-" When
asked the same question about Roberts
Weish's eyes lighted up at once with
Reorganization and he exclaimed: Yes
you shot me, yon know you shot me =
As his accuser uttered these words
Roberts was the picture of ahject feae
His face paled and his body shook
like one suffering with ague. Next
SEWER and. Williams were brought in
and Welsh Unidentified both of them
as having taken part in the robbery
and assault and the latter as one Of
the men who shot him.
To test his mental condition Welsh
was also asked if he knew others in
the room and his replies were correct
in each instance.
The Identification of the four pris-
toner's made by the dying man was
complete and left no doubt in the
minds of any Of those present that the
culprits were the guilty ones.
The handouts were again put on
the prisoners and they were bundled
into the wagon and taken to Jail and
locked in the inner GELS.
At LOvelock they had a preliminary
examination yesterday morning be-
fore Justice Morris and were bound
over on the charge of robbery. Now

Friday morning the sentence of

passed upon Patrick Hern, the slayer
of William Williamson at the East
Reno last July, by Judge Murphy,
in the Distinct Court, says the Gaz-
etc.
Promptly at 10 o'clock Judge Muir

was as still as death while sentence
was pronounced and Hern showed no
signs of emotion as the words came
slowly from the lips of Jupdge Murphy.
Immediately after the sentence was
pronounced Attorney Craig filed "a
motion for new trial on the ground
that the dying declaration of William
son was improperly admitted eviden-
&c, because it appears from the declar-
alton that Williamson had not abal-
doned hope of recovery at the time he
gave the statement.
