Miners Federation Replies.

Denver, Col, Special.-The executive
board OF the Western Federation OF
Miners has issued a statement regard
ing the situation in Cripple Creek, in
reply to the statement made by Cen
eral Sherman NJ. Bell and Secretary C..
C. Hamlin. of the Cripple Creek Dis
tict Mine Owners Association. 1t says:
"The only questions involved are the
enforcement of the eight-hor day, the
right of men to organize in the unions
and to prevent discrimination against
union men Of all kinds. The response
bility for the lawlessness connected
with the contests rests entirely on the
shoulders of the mine operators, the
Citizens Alliance and their allies,
backed up by the ready power OF the
State government"
The events Of the past week, the
statement says, justify these accusa-
tions. The statement says no deaths
,ave occurred for which the Western
Federation of Miners can be held re-
Sponsible.

Port Arthur Has Not Fallen.

st. Petersburg, By Cable.-Nothing
Is known here of the various rumors
to the effect that Port Arthur has fal.

Russian sources by the Japanese, who
are between the Russians and the
territory mentioned. 1t is officially
asserted that the cables connecting
Japan with China are not working.

having knowledge of events in that
section of Manchuria. The 'interrup-
tion" of the cable work, however, is
more likely to be official and due to
q censorship at Toxic.

piers. The work In the caissons was
hazardous and lives were lost,
In 1901 1t was discovered that the
base Of the east pier had changed it's
location; having moved westward until:
the pier was nine inches out of plumb.
ton of the chief engineer the entire
pier was "jacked up" placed upon
steel rollers and moved back to it's
original position. The pier In round
numbers Is 70 feet in height; 80 feet
in width and 10 feet in thickness.
This was regarded at the time as one
of the greatest engineering feats that
had ever been performed.
Since then the company has careful
ly watched the bridge day and night.
In October last it was discovered that
the east pier was again moving; in
fact, had moved a few inches toward
the river.
From Investigations made the ex-
perts reached the conclusion that
trouble: First, that the bluff, or a large
part Of it, situated just east Of the
bridge, was moving, glacier-like, into
the river, carrying the pier with 1t;
second, that an underground stream
of water, possibly from a leak in the
reservoir, the water supply for the
city Of Bismarck situated on the top
For the purpose of confirming or
disproving these theories the railway
company began last November to-
build tunnel into the bluff. The
work has been carried on, night and
day, with as large force Of men as
can work to advantage.
A few days ago the tunnel, 5h feet
by feet, supported by heavy plank
and timbers Sx1O inches, and about
500 feet in length, had been con-
structed.
The course Of the tunnel Is north
easterly 487 feet and from that point
about 100 feet to the northwest and an
equal distance to the southeast. A
ditch 80 inches deep and about the
same width is dug in the bottom Of
the tunnel to carry off any water that
may be encountered.
Both theories have to some extent
been confirmed. A small stream Of
water Is now running in the ditch and
| it Is asserted that there is conclu-
sive evidence that the bluff is NOV
ing westward. The work of extending
the tunnel in a northWesterly and
southeasterly direction continues.
The officials are silent as to plans
for the future. No serious accident
| has been experienced by any of the
workmen, tho some have had narrow
escapes from earth falling from the
roof before the supporting t1mbers
could be placed. The speed Of all
trains Is reduced to a snail's pace in
rounding the sharp curve at the east
end of the bridge and is not increased
| until the unstable pier and bridge are
! crossed.
It is reported that the Northern Pa
cific has been seriously considering
the construction Of new bridge at q
point several hundred feet south Of
the present structure. At that point
there is no bluff on either side Of the
river, and it is believed solid founda-
ton for piers could be found
