WESTERN FEDERATION SENDS
OUT ANSWER TO MINE OWNERS CIV WlN1EERS

Victor Colo, Aug. 15.-The follow
ing statement was sent out yesterday
afternoon by the District Union No. /.
Western Federation of Miners. in reply
to the statement issued by the Mine
Owners Association the day before.
That philosophical organization of
dividend grabbers and professional
stock gamblers. commonly known as
the Mine Owners Association, has in
ficted upon the public statement that
is based upon the corporate idea of JUS
tice of coming dividends out OF the toll
of the workers, regardless of the condi-
tions that surround their employment.
Their statement is the usual corporate
appeal to union strikers when making
their stand for justice or fairer condi-
tions, to renounce their union. the on
ly protection the wage Garner has un-
der the present system of corporation
units, and return to work under the
protection of their special deputies and
thugs and corporation vassals. 1t is
needless to say that the union man Will
stand true to his obligation and hurl
| back in the face of the would-be brib-
| ers the offer to sell his manhood for
corporation gold. The statement of the
Mine Owners Association says in part:
The fact that there are no grivances
to adjust and no unsatisfactory con-
ditions to remedy, leaves the mine op-
orators but one alternative and that
alternative is that they have the pro-
lection of corporation guard until the
controversy is settled, whsn the traitor
to his fellow man is to be cast adrift
and become an outcast on the indus
trial field. The fact nevertheless re-
mains that it has required an eternal
vigilance on the part of the unions OF
the Western Federation of Miners to

GREAT BOXING MATCH RESULTS
in EASY VICTORY FOR JEFFRIES

San Francisco, Aug. 15.-James ].
Jeffries, champion heavyweight of the
world, played with Jim Corbett for
nine rounds and a half last night, and
then Corbett's seconds motioned Ref
cree Graney to stop the fight in order
to save their man from needless pun
ishment.
The end came shortly after the be
ginning of the tenth round, when JEFF
fries planted one of his terrific left
swings on Corbett's stomach. The man
who conquered John l.. Sullivan then
dropped to the floor in agony. and the
memorable scene at Carson, when Bob
Fitzsimmons landed his solar plexus
blow. was almost duplicated.
This time. however. Corbett strug-
gled to his feet and again faced his gi-
gantic adversary. With hardly mo-
ment's hesitation, Jeffries swung his
right and again landed on Corbett's
stomach.
Jim dropped to the floor. and then
it was that Tommy Ryan, seeing that
it was all over. motioned to Referee
Graney TO stop the punishment
The fight last night demonstrated be-
yond all doubt that Jeffries stands
alone in his class. He showed remark
able improvement in both speed and
skill. Corbett during the first part of
the fight. was almost outpointed, and
the few blows that he landed on JEFF
fries were apparently without sting.
Jeffries was never in better condi-
ton. He looked lighter than usual.
and the way he moved about on his
feet and the frequency with which he
countered on Corbett's leads astonished
everybody.
The Elk Mountain pilot., 1903-08-18

Corbett. in comparison with the big
man opposed to him, looked very light.
but was really heavier than ever be-
fore. Se appeared to have lost some
of his old-time speed and skill during
the early part of the fight. but this
may have been due to Jeffries marvel
GUS Improvement. Corbett's physical
condition appeared to be all that he
had claimed for it. He stood many of
Jeffries terrific blows without wincing
ard came back swing left and right
and landing frequently, but his blows
hardly stung Jeffries.
.Ieffries was not only faster. stronger
and cleverer than ever before. but he
used his head to better purpose and,
although Corbett would hit him hard
enough to hurt an ordinary man, JEFF
fries would bore right in without no
ticing the blows, and would deliver
telling hits that materially helped in
deciding the result of the fight.
AT first Corbett was very cautious.
and apparently was outpointed by
Jeffries. but later in the fight he
warmed up and showed some of his
old-time cleverness. From the first,
however, it was generally regarded as
a hopeless case for Corbett. He made
a gallant fight, but he never stood a
show to win.
After the fight was over, Corbett
quickly recovered. walked over to JEFF
fries and shook him warmly by the
hand. He said;
Jim. you beat me fairly. You
stand alone. No one can touch you"
Referee Eddie Granley said after the
fight that it was a great heavyweight

CHICAGO INVADING INDIANA.

The location of the city of Chicago was
mainly, If not entirely, due to the fact that
at an early day the government had estab-
Grating against the Indians. The fort was
maintained for many years and was finally
succeeded by town. 1t was inevitable
that there should be a great city at the
lower end of Lake Michigan, a commanding
point for land and water communication
been located at the very curve of the lower
end of the lake it would have become the
site of a great city just the same. and Chi
cago would have been in Indiana. So it
would, too. If, when Indiana was divided
off in 1909, the western boundary of the
west than 1t was. Things did not happen
in this way, however. and Chicago has got
along fairly well in Illinois as Indiana has
without Chicago. But Chicago has Spread
out nearly to the Indiana line, and will
eventually cross it for industrial purposes
Three lakes within the present city limits
Calumet, Hyde and Wolf lakes-are near
the Indiana line the one last named being
partly within this State. The city limits
now extend in a southeasterly direction
from fifteen to seventeen miles, clear up
to the Indiana line. and strong syndicate,
backed by ample capital. is about to bring
il across the line by the establishment of
very large manufacturing interests in this
State. The East Chicago Company. with
a capitalization of s.. 100000 and including
among its stockholders some Of the largest
capitalists in Chicago and the East, has
purchased $500 acres of land In the north
western corner OF this State. on which they
propose to build extensions of large manu-
featuring plants already owned by them
on the Illinois side of the line. In addition
TO establishing extensive manufacturing in
dustries the company will construct docks
on the lake and a canal connecting Indiana
Harbor with the Calumet river. thus making
the Indiana town to all intents and pur-
poses an extension Of Chicago. 1t is said
the canal will have a dock and factory
frontage of about seven miles, which, with
the facilities of Indiana Harbor and the
lake. will give the company far more valu-
able properties than II could acquire within
the present city limits of Chicago In the
way OF establishing a new manufacturing

the largest that has been brought before
