was Smacking and shaking her in an en-
deavor to sober her up. when the officer ap-

MISCREANT'S BOLDNESS.
Colored Man Found in Woman's Sleep
ing Room Last Night,

Mrs. Matte Bean aroused the neighbor-
hood in the vicinity of 400 New Jersey ave-
nue. northwest shortly after IL o'clock last
night by screaming for assistance. She
was awakened by a noise In her room and
discovered a colored man In her bed The
intruder jumped from the window when the
woman made an cutlery and escapes. In
the rear of the house the police found a
coat. pair Of shoes and a hat. Letters
found in the pockets Of the coat indicated
the name Of the owner Of the garment. The
police made a search for him, but were I'M
able to overtake him.
Some time after the trouble occurred a
colored man named Walter Hawthorne ap-
peared upon the scene and the police ar
rested him on suspicion that he had called
to get the clothes that had been left there
by the former visitor. He denied that he
was there for such purpose. but admitted
that he knew the man whose name was on
was detained at the station pending fur
Their investigation. Shortly before IL o'clock
last night Mrs. Bean and another rOomer
in the New Jersey avenue house visited a
lunch room in the neighborhood and the
police are of the opinion they were followed
home from the lunch room. Two colered
men were seen to go in the direction Of the
house a short time after the women passed
the police station on their way home.
Mrs. Beans screams attracted a crowd to
the house and the police remained about
the rear Of the premises some time think
ing the owner OF the wearing apparel left
behind would return for them. Detective
O'Dea and other officers In the precinct
are making further investigation of the
case. The man whose name is on the en-
yelope is known by the police and 1t Is ex-
pected he will be apprehended.

UNIONS LAUNCH A
COOPERATIVE COMPANY

A cooperative enterprise was
launched in Portland yesterday morn
ing by the labor unions. 1t is known
as the Mechanics Investment COM
pany. The incorporators are: c.
Bomberger, treasurer of the carpen-
ters' union; c. w. Ryan. secretary of
the carpenters union; e. A. Caldwell.
president of the carpenters union; II.
G. Green. president of the electrical
workers union; w. II. Blaney. S. e.
Cornell and w. II. Mellam of the
bricklayers' union. The object of the
incorporation is set out as follows
To build railroads. boats. fumes
and to operate the same.
To acquire real estate. timber lands.
mills and engage in the lumber bust
ness,
The unions intend to operate their
own logging camps. planning mills and
sawmills and establish buildings of
every description.
The principal aim in view Is to
end labor troubles. those who are
interested in the enterprise saying

NOTES OF the MINES.

The main vein and n large body of
high grade ore has been struck In
tunnel of the Payne mine. This
adds 400 feet of ground to this fam
Gus property.
Another deal is now pending for
the Lucky Jim since the lease was
not taken up by w. Ii. Jcffreys and
Goldsmith The Lanyon Zinc com
pany are said to be negotiating for
the property.
The first load of machinery for the
Oyster mine arrived at Camborne last
week. The stamp mill will not be
erected until March and is being stor-
ed for the time in shed erected for
that purpose.
The American Boy has made a con-
tract to ship a portion OF their ores
to the smelters OF the American
Smelling and Refining company. This
Is the first contract made in the
SLOGAN with this smelter.
The Fisher Maiden has closed a
contract with the Trail smelter for
treating 1000 tons of high grade ore.
Four cars are now ON their way to
the smclter. More are ready for
shipment and the orc is being rapid
ly rawhided from the mine. The ore
averages $50 ounces silver. per cent
lead and ~ per cent zinc.
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1903-02-13

that reliance can not be placed in
the present industrial system.
The capital stock of the company
is $4,000. This is divided into $500
shares at the rate of $40 a share.
Every workingman will be permitted
to buy stock. but no one will be al
lowed to hold more than 100 shares.
Many of the labor leaders in Spo-
kane believe that the plan is good
one. They argue that if 1t were
launched in this city building would
be encouraged, and that period of
prosperity would be bound to follow.
The incorporation does not meet
with the approval of the American
Labor union. James Smith. one of
the prominent members of that or
ganization, said to a Press reporter
this morning:
Il know of no true trade unioniSt
who is in favor of labor organizations
Incorporating. 1t would be a disad-
vantage in the payment of benefits,
as has been frequently pointed out
by our official organ. While the or
ganiZat!on would not fear legislation.
Incorporation would in many in
stances give rise to it.
