G. j. Bucher Arrested nj Stur-
gis for Importing Armed Men.
The Suits For Possession Of Company
Houses Mere Dismissed at the
Instance Of Operators.
EVERYTHING is NOW QUIET.

Sturgis. Ky. Oct. 30.-The strike
situation is no less serious than II
has been for the past few days. c. j.
Butcher. superintendent OF the West
Kentucky Coal company, was arrest
ed here as he got off the train with
James c. Gardiner. president of the
company. with whom he had been Wis
ting the mines at Wheatcroft. Buch-
er was charged with having unlaw-
ully imported the twenty Pinkerton
armed guards into this territory. :
Bncher was Immediately released
on bond OF $1,000, signed by Gardi-
ner.
There Is no probability of violence
n present and the situation remains
lulet. business remains active and
here Is very little change In connec-
lion with commercial activity. There
Is n spirit OF good feeling. except be-
tween the miners and the officials of
ne coal company.
The only point at issue Is the re-
fusal OF the West Kentucky Coal COM
pany to recognize either the union or
he Operators Association.
The operators had dismissed the
suit for possession of the company
houses near the shaft. Judge A. W.
Clements tried the case and at the
instance OF Attorney p. II. Winston
Tor the coal company the suits were
dismissed without prejudice, ceaying
he company to pay the costs. The
miners will therefore retain posses
sion for the present. but IL Is sup
posea a different line Of legal action
VIII be taken by the company.
IL the miners Lose the fight they
Naim 10 want to lose II on the plain
o. high principle, demanding what
they are contsnding for or nothing.

and have moved away. while others

death sentence given James Ezell,
the young Mayfield man who killed

ago. Mr.. Corbstt made a strong plea
that the boys life he spared and he
stated that he was confident he would
be successful in securing a commuia-
ton.
When Mr. Corbett left. the board
of pardons had not passed on the
case but he had evidently been given
tip, for he said that Ezells sent
enee of death would he committed 10
life Imprisonment. Attorney Corhstt

and this was his third trip to Union
town In behalf of young Ezell.

Crime Costs Money

The county auditor is now busy
making out warrants for the costs
of the various people who had to
do with the criminal court that
closed last week. There are 333 of
these warrants for a total sum of
$583I.45. The costs of the jury
footed up $1,000. The Mi,lard
Boyd murder case, exclusive of the
jury, cost S1,535.4o. The other
Ie criminal cases cost 81, 300. o5.
Of the 20 cases that came tefore
the court only six convictions were
secured. Three Or four plead guilty
to the charges. The total cost to
the county of securing a conviction
was about 5000. At this rate the
county could afford to take tie
criminals and keep them living in
luxury. 1t would cost less.-Re-

N. P Engineers Here.

Considerable speculation was en-
gendered today by the arrival of a
party of about a dozen Northern
Pacific engineers getting off the
train here with evident intention of
spending while with US. They
have located in the grove just this
side of the bridge, and are making
preparations for lengthy stay.
They were accompanied by the
chief engineer OF the system. 1t is
hard to guess what they are here
for, and they will not give out any
information. There are several
propositions here that would &C
count for their presence, but just
what one it is hard to say and time
alone can discover. Some are of
the opinion that the new bridge is
the object of the visit, while others
contend that it is the putting in of
the spur to the river landing.
