Reported Speech That Influenced Call
ing Out Of Troops.

Denver. March 27.-The Republican
this morning says: Among the pri-
vate advices from Trinidad received
by Governor Peabody. which led to
the declaration OF martial law in Las
Animas county. was the report of n
meeting of union miners which was
addressed by the imported agitators,
William Wardjon of Iowa. and Moth
err Jones of Pennsylvania The meet
ing in question was held at Mrs.
Starks saloon in Santa Clara on the
night of -Iarch End, being attended by
about $50 men.
The addresses were taken down by
the use of shorthand notes and fur.
nished portion of the information
upon which the governor acted. The
speech made by Wardjon was very in.
cendiary in it's character and lasted
over an hour. during which time all the
men present remained.
Wardjon spoke of a strike in Illi-
nois in which he had played a part,
saying that scabs had been shipped in
alive and sent out in boxes. meaning
that they had been killed. In this con-
nection he said seventeen men had
, met such a fate in the strike referred
to. He further said that had such
measures been taken here the strike
, would have been settled long ago
Wardjon said peace had been or
dered by those in charge of the strike
at first, but that the leaders were not
talking that way now, as the operat-
ors had failed to obey the law and
therefore the strikers should take the
law in their own hands.
He denounced the Trinidad strikers
as the most cowardly set of men he
mad ever seen. He had been in eleven
strikes and had never seen such a
cowardly set as the men in Trinidad.
He related the incident Of man N
Gray Creek. who threatened to go back
to work If he did not get shoes for his
children. The man was told that If he
went back to work he would be killed
so he did not do so. Wardjon said
that was the proper way to do and the
manner traitors should be dealt with.

Grand Rapids Flooded.

Grand Rapids, Mich, March 81
Conditions in this city and nearby
towns along the Grand river are very
grave tonight as result of the I'M
precedented flood. At 8 O'Clock to.
night the river gauge here was three
feet above the previous high water rec
ord, that Of 1874. The water has
risen six inches since o'clock last
evening. 1t is falling slightly tonight,
however, the drop in temperature hav-
ing checked the small streams and
surface drainage. The inhabitants of
flooded houses are suffering greatly
from cold and lack of food. vast
amount Of sickness will, 1t is feared,
follow the exposure sustained by many
of the flood victims.
The work Of rescuing inhabitants of
the flooded houses continues all Sun.
day, and a squad of local militia is
assisting the rescuers. 1t is conserva-
lively estimated that the loss to prop
erty and business on account of the
flood will exceed $2.O0O.OOO. Fifteen
thousand men will be unable to work
tomorrow. owing to factories being
compelled to close.

STATEMENT OF STRIKERS.
Story Told by Deported Leaders Of
Southern Miners.

Denver. March PA dispatch to
.he Republican from La Junta last
night says: William Wardjon. in a
statement made in the Harvey hotel
here tonight, said that the only offense
on the part of the deported persons,
so far as he knew, was the fact that
they carried guns. These, he said,
were necessary to protect their homes.
which had been broken into. He
charged that women had been insulted
by the intruders. In public state
ment he said that the Citizens ALI
ance of Trinidad, together with the
different interested corporations, had
contributed 100000 toward hiring
deputies, and that each deputy should
have received IS, when. in reality he
was getting SO per day.
Wardjon charged that Sheriff Clark
handled the money, that his 'rake-off'
was large one and that, when
troops were finally requested, $780,
600 proposition had to be made to the
sheriff before the request received his
sanction.
Adolph Bartolli, editor of the Italian
paper, lie Trovatore Italiano, says he
was arrested Friday evening. Just as
his paper had come from the press and
was ready for distribution, and that
he was held until this afternoon with
out being allowed to circulate his pa.
per.
Wardjon further stated that he had
three warrants sworn out that should
have been served. but the officers of
the justice court informed the deputy
sheriff that they should not be served.
He admits that there were warrants,
out for his arrest, that were not
served, charging him with disturbance.
but he says this charge is groundless.
The deported persons were accom-
panied as far as La Junta by Capt. c.
A. Kelley and five militianen, who.
after telling them they were never to-
return to Trinidad, said they might go
where they pleased. The soldiers left
for Trinidad at an early hour this
morning and the deported leaders will
go to Pueblo in the morning. Mother"
Jones retired early and could not be
interviewed.

China viii Remain Neutral.

New York March 27.-The Herald
publishes the following from its
Shanghai correspondent:
The Empress Dowager has negatived
a proposal made by the Viceroy Yuan
Shi Kai and General Ma, that China
conclude an open alliance with Japan.
in view of Russia's repeated violation
of Chinese territory west Of the Lao
river.
Her Majesty counsels patience and
a firm attitude.
An Englishman who was a resident
for some years at Port Arthur and
has lately arrived at Shanghai. gives
a roseate account of the situation
there. He says that the houses are
to scattered for the Japanese to do
much damage, and a large number OF
the projectiles. being armor- piercing.
have to explode.
The Retvizan, he says, is the only
warship seriously injured. and the
remainder are being rapidly repaired.
He declares that supplies are ample,
and the railway is running freely. He
considers the capture of Port Arthur
by assault as impossible, and says that
to starve 1t out would be dincult.

General Kuropatkin will afterward
Generals Linevitch and Zilinski, he will
make a flying visit to Port Arthur to
inspect the fortress.
1t is remembered here that the Rus
sian forces may not withdraw to the
strong line of defense prepared at Feng
Hang If General Kuropatkin decides
that he can get together a sufficient
number of men to make stand at the
Yaiu river advisable
Important news is drifting to st.
Petersburg by mail. A letter from
Dalny draws picture of its defence
less condition when the Japanese at
tackled Port Arthur. The correspondent
says that the smallest japanese force
could easily have capured and de-
stroyed enormous stores of coal, $780,
GOO pounds of tea and six Russian mer-
chantmen lying in the harbor. As the
Japanese failed to attack Dalny the
Russians at once mined the approach,
the haste with which the work was per-
formed being the cause of the blowing
up Of the Yenisei. Many Of the mines
were badly laid, so that the protected
cruiser Boyarin struck one of them
during a storm. The correspondent
says the Boyarin was NOT sunk imme-
dlately. Her captain succeeded in
placing a collision mat in position so
mat the Boyarin was beached. The
Boyarin has since been taken to Port
Arthur, where she has been repaired

statement comes from Vladivostok,
apparently from reliable source, to
the effect that Captain Reitzenstein' g
squadron returned to port towing a sec

reception to the victors. This cap
ture, however, is not confirmed In OFF,

FOUR DEPORTED
AMONG THEM IS MOTHER JONES
Soldiers Danish Strike Leaders and
Publishers Of an Italian Paper
Favoring the Strikers.

Denver, March 27.-A Trinidad dis
patch last night says: Mother"
Jones of Pennsylvania, William Ward
jon of Iowa. and two Italians named
Pagini and Bartolli, respectively, own
ers and publishers of an Italian paper.
lie Troyatore ltaliano, alleged to be
incendiary in character, were deported
from Trinidad, being sent to La Junta
on the Santa Fe.
The searching of houses throughout
the city for firearms caused consider
able excitement among the house
wives, but when the soldier boys po-
litely informed them of their errand.
they promptly obeyed. The registra.
tion OF firearms at headquarters was
unusually heavy to-day and the de-
mand for passes greater than Adju-
tant Eaton was able to supply.
Tonight all who had not secured the
coveted passes were forced to go homo
at o'clock Major Hill said tonight
that he had no statement regarding
the situation to make public further
than that among the guns presented
for registration were three by DR..
Grass OF especial interest. One was
carried by his grandfather in the Rev
olutionary War, one by his father in
the BLACK Hawk" War, and one by
the noted Kit" Carson. the latter
weapon being known as the BLACK
Leg"
An unusually large crowd Of people
thronged the streets all day. many
coming in from the country on their
regular weekly visits, and others out
of curiosity aroused by the presence
of state troops.
This morning details were sent to
all parts of the city and each resi-
dence was visited in search of fire
arms. Several wagon loads were ta-
ken to headquarters, the owners being
given receipts that will entitle them
to reclaim their property when the
trouble Is over.
Several arrests W ere made for at
tempts to steal weapons and disobey-
ing orders, but no serious trouble was
reported from any part of the county.
In the various coal camps the search
for arms is being variously pushed
and great many are being found.
No report as to the number, however,
has been received.

OF Wiju have reported to the Korean
government that Russian troops be-

We are still having som9 fine

Our roads are in very bad con-

Two horses have recently been
killed on the icy road around the
hill opposite Isaiah Barbour's
This road is located around the
base of the north side of beech
clad mill for about one-fourth of a
mile. The winter sun scarcely
touches it. Consequently it has
been perfect glazier of ice all
winter. The Millsr's Fork coun-
try has been blockaded by thie
field of ice for about nine weeks.
Two or three horses have been
crippled, two horses killed, two or
three wagons broken, to say moth
