n,rminxham. oct. 2.--(special. )-It Is heIieved here that the United States rrand tury. when it meets in Birming- bar, next month, may be made cogni- zant of the fact that civil service rules have been violated or an attempt made to violate them through gathering up campaign funds in this State.
 It is not improbable, according to the statement of gentleman who has studied the matter. but that there 10 some liability in the recent call on Federal officeholders to contribute to- wards the national campaign fund ot the Republican party. and while noth- ing definite is known here. 1t is learned that Judge Jones is likely to mention the thing to the grand jury when .t meets here within the next few weeks, Another story growing out of the visit of Mir. McNeill to this State re- gently is that the "caIl" for subscrip- tions was not only made on the princl- pal of7iceholders. but also on a number who are getting not more than $75 per month. In fact. more than one poor officeholder upon being asked" to con- tribute. went to see attorneys and re . eeived advice not to 'pony up"
 These later men may be witnesses before the grand jury, though no sub peonas have been served as yet, It ia known that Judge Jones is strictly op- posed to any violation of the civil ser vice rules. A few weeks ago he had little tilt with the Republican lead CTS who intimated they were going to make some changes in the Marshaps otIice in Montgomery. The change was not made and Judge Jones carried the matter to President Roosevelt.
 A we'll known Republican today stat ed that he did not believe that the pro- gram for getting subscriptions to the Republican campaign fund was 0 be so hard pressed as 1t was. It was in- tended that Mr. McNeill was to throw out a hint that funds were needed and 1t was believed that everybody would come across. But there was de- mand made and that Is where the rub comes and the gran jury may get hold of 1t In some manner.
 There are still denials made that sub- ecriptions were demanded and that the purpose of Mir. McNeill coming to this State was as stated. However ls is not denied that Mir. McNetll came. saw and 'conquered.'

Fourth ,fonth ef strske.

The fourth month of the strike of the united Mine Workers Of America, Dis trict No. 20. Alabama, at mines owned and operated by furnace companies, ex- cept the Alabama Consolidated Coal and Iron Company, has started with both the miners and the operators as deter mined as at the start. The miners claim that if there is dn increased pro- auction of coal with the non-union la Dor being brought into the district. that the product is not of full value. in- asmuch as 1t Is dirty and that harm has been done the mines by inexperienced miners.
 The furnace operators claim that they are training their new labor right along, and that men are now being brought from other coal sections to take up work here. The operators stili insist on this being a light to finish; that they are determined to have the open shop" or nothing. President Ed Flynn of the United Mine Workers of America. reiterates his statement that to the organization ana that the dis trict organization will care for It's mem- bers in the way of provisions. etc.
 The commercial coal mines. non- union mines and convictsmines are rro- ducing a larger output of coal than ever before in the history of coal min ing in Alabama. There is good de- mand for the product, no small amount being shipped to Louisiana and on the Mississippi river. The Pratt Coal Company. the largest producers of coal not using union labor, is shipping out every ton that they can mine, the bet ter part of 1t leaving this State. The aggregate output at mines in this State will most likely equal what 1t was cu- ring 1908, if not exceed that amount. Already more fatal accidents have happened in the mines this year than last year. nfty-nine men having lest their lives so far in 1s0s against hfty- seven in 1903. The production tn 1905 at the coal mines in Alabama amount ed to i1,7o0.oo0 and over. There has been an increased production at the non union mines, while several large new mines have been opened up in this district. Good prices have prevailed for coal since the strike has been On and this has been an additional incen- tive to set out large production.

CHICAGO, July Give had an
agreement with Mr.. Donnelly's organi-
Zation and the allied trades which they
have failed to live up to- and under the
circumstances We do not care to make
any further agreements with Them
This is the statement which was
signed by the representatives of the
packers and handed to the members
of the state board of arbitration to-
night at the end of a conference be-
tween the two bodies, held at the re-
quest of the state board in an endeavor
to bring about another meeting be-
tween the packers and the strikers.
The packers received the state board
courteously and listened to their argu-
ment for a peaceable adjustment of
the difficulty. The announcement that
the packers were opposed to any fur
ther peace negotiations with the strikers
was handed to the board by Arthur
Meeker and Thomas Connor, this after
noon, of the Armour company, who rep
resented the packers. While from their
statement it would appear that the
packers are opposed to meeting the
strikers again on any terms such is
not the case. At the last conference
between the strikers and the packers
the latter informed the union leaders
that any time they expressed a desire
to live up to the original arbitration
agreement, signed week ago today,

ARMED POSSE SEEKS
h5RDER[Rs OF DAHL
Sheriff Starts for Scene of
Crime to Arrest Two
Suspects
Special to The Globe

opONlol " InS AJiODS
BEMIDJI, Minn.,- July 27.-Eugene
Caldwell, who yesterday reported the
find of DahPs body near Quiring, is
charged with being implicated in the
murder. A message from Ten Strike
the nearest railroad point to the scene
of the tragedy, states that Caldwell
Paul Forniere and Shorty Westby are
suspected of killing Dahl, but that the
girl is still alive. An Indian who
lives near Quiring says that a short
time after the disappearance of the
pair he met two men driving a team
of gray horses, accompanied by n
young woman who is supposed to hava
been Miss DAHL 1t is claimed tha.
one of these men was Caldwell and
the other was Forniere. The Indian
recognized the team as belonging 10
Caldwell. Immediately after the disap-
pearance of the Dahls, Westby, more fa-
millarly known in the neighborhood as
Shorty" disappeared All the parties
implicated are homesteaders.
1t now leaks out that there has been
practically no search made on the
Dahl homestead, parties going there
being frightened away by threats
made by Caldwell. Yesterday party
of ten men left Black Duck to make a
thorough search. The coldbloodedness
of the murder is distinctly shown
by the fact that the body was
found under the roots of a large
balsam tree which at some time
had blown down. The body being
placed under the wall thus made and
then the trunk Of the tree was choppe,I
off and thus the body was buried. A
large posse under Sheriff Bailey has
left Ten Strike to arrest Caldwell and
Forniere. The men who compose the
posse have all been sworn in as depu-
ties, as Sheriff, Bailey expects resist
ance in attempting the arrest of the
two men. especially Forniere.

tee was heralded far and wide, but no
announcement had been made of the

CATION. Several of the committeeman

York men at Rosemount, but Mr.. Muir
ply made no effort to avoid meeting

tinued until the arrival of the national
committee.
Greetings Are Cordial

which provided for the reinstatement
of the striking butchers inside of forty
five days, and for all grievances to be
submitted to arbitration, the packers
would be willing to renew the agree
ment.
Packers Contention
The contention of the packers is that
this agreement is still in force, and as
they are unwilling to offer any further
concessions to the strikers they say
a renewal of peace negotiations with
the hope of securing better terms
would be useless. The labor leaders
claim that when the butchers went on
the second strike because of alleged
discrimination by the packers in re-
instating old employees, the arbitration
agreement was nullified and that it is
necessary to sign new agreement be-
fore settlement can be reached.
After tonights conference with the
state board of arbitration Arthur Meek
er, manager for Armour & Co., said
that the packers were still willing to
live up to the terms of the original
agreement, but that initiative would
have to be taken by the strikers. Mr..
Meeker also intimated that the sooner
the strikers adopted this course the
better it would be for them, as in his
belief if the strike should last much
longer all the places of the strikers
would be filed by new men and there
would be no necessity for the packers
to wish to settle on any basis with
their old employees
