MANY REPORTS ABOUT HER ARREST,
Many reports have been circulated
concerning her arrest, some Of which
may be verified later and Others prove

The Saturday previous to Lawder's
killing, it is said Mrs. Bailey went 70
see Lawder In his office, and removing
her hat and jacket, sat down. Sne
had called there repeatedly, and Law
der telling her not to come, and many
times on seeing her approach would
lock the office door to keep her OUT

interior before he was aware, and
seated herself as If she intended TO
stay. Lawder is said to have request
led her to 90, but with little success.
Finally, as a last resort, he took her
hat and cloak in one hand and with
the other led her outside.
Many are of the opinion that she be.

her husband that Lawder had wrong

Huoe Consumption Of lorn.

NEW YORK, April 2O.-Statistics
lust published concerning the coun-
try's pig iron consumption for last
month show the remarkable total of
1000 900 tons. The total production
was 1.936,OOO tons, which exceeds the
production of January, the previous
high monthly record, by $4,000 tons.
In the same period furnace stocks or
iron decreased 10000 tons, and On
April 18th total stock on hand was
the smallest since Aug. 1, 1903. the
enormous output, as contrasted with
nreyious months, was due largely TO
the record breaking in some OF the
great districts like Pittsburg, the
Shenango valley, and the ILLINOIS,
Northwest group.

CANNOT LEVY ON SALARIES.
Supreme Court Renders an Interestino
Decision.

| OLYMPIA, April 2O.-It has been
decided by the supreme court that the
salaries of school teachers cannot be
levied on for debt and that all classes
OF life insurance policies are also ex-
| empt from liability. The decision Is
In the case of Jennie Flood, respondent
VS.. isaac and Martha Libby, appel
iants The appellants were teachers
IN the Spokane high school. The re-
spondent had a Judgment Of 1882
against them on a note. The sheriff
Jailed to find property to satisfy the
execution and this action was brought
which resulted in the issuance of an
! order of the superior court, appointing
a receiver and directing the appellants
to turn over to the receiver life in
surance policies. accounts and other
personal property and including
school warrants issued in payment Of
salaries as teachers. The order is
modified to exclude salaries and in
surance policies, but the receiversnip
is allowed to stand, it appearing that
the order includes property not ex-
empt from execution.
Must Not Occupy Street.
In a decision handed down the SUI
preme court holds that the ferry slip
and buildings of the West Seattle
Land & Improvement company and
the Oregon Washington Ferry & Nav
igation company are upon a public
street, the property Of the city.
The ferry slip and land company
buildings have occupied the streets on
plated in 1888 and claimed the land
by right of adverse possession. The
supreme court adheres to the doctrine
that something more than mere lapse
of time and occupation is required to
acquire title to public highway, and
holds in favor of the city, reversing
the lower court and directing that the
| relief prayed for be granted.
In the Spokane county case Of Geo.
Denham ct ux., appellants, VS.. Wash
ington Waterpower company, re-
spondent, tine judgment of the lower
court in favor of the respondent Is at
firmed. Mrs. Denham was injured In
| street car accident in Spokane and
| brought this suit for damages for in
juries received from the alleged cause
| of overcrowding of the car in which
| she was injured. The verdict of the
| jury was in favor of the company and
the verdict and the ruling of the lower
court are sustained.

WAS WEEK OF COLD NIGHTS
WEATHER HOWEVER VERY IA
WORKABLE FOR SPRING WORK
IN THE FIELDS.
Spring Sowing Nearly Completed Ex-
cept In Late Localities WaIla
WaIla Crops Doing Fine.

The past week was one Of cold
nights, with frosts on the tenth and
eleventh which We're not generally
harmful, but are thought to have
killed prune and cherry blossoms in
some localities. There were showers
on several days, but there was gen.
eral deficiency in the usual amount of
rainfall, which, however, is not harm
fui at the present time.
The weather was very favorable for
spring work, such as blowing, harrow
ing, seeding, and planting. 1t was
not unfavorable for the growth of
grain and grass, although the cool
nights have made growth somewhat
slow. Winter wheat improves slowly,
and it's present condition is very sat
isfactory. Considerable early sown
spring wheat mas come up, and only
needs some warm and moist weather
to make it grow rapidly. Spring
wheat sowing is nearly completed, in
all except the late localities. Barley
and oat sowing are also well along,
except oat sowing in the lOwlands of
Skagit county, where it is not half
done yet. Farmers are not very far
along with potato planting. Some
early potatoes are up, but are not
growing rapidly. Early gardens are
in satisfactory stage of progress.

TWO THOUSAND MEN ARE IDLE.
BackIisted Miner and a Socialist Are
Blamed for Much of Trouble.

DULUTH, Mimi, April 2O.-Chis-
| holm reports today that all work in
the mines there and on the stripping
contracts has been stopped. At Hib-
bing too, the men are still out-all
but few. This means that in the
neighborhood of two thousand men
! are idle.
The men who are the real strikers
probably do not exceed $50 or 300, and
the remainder are peaceably inclined.
but are afraid to work. The Firms
and Austrians who compose the main
body of the strikers are reckless lot
and ready to use knives or guns on
moments notice.
The general opinion is that the
strike will wear itself out. Strenu-
Gus efforts are being made by the
Western Federation of Miners to or
ganize the men in all of the range
towns, and to it's efforts and that of
a socialist who is up there are attrib-
uteJ much of the discomfort that has
been engendered.
G. G. Remission is the Federation or
ganizer. and last night he held
meeting at Chrisholm. He said he
was a blacklisted miner, being on the
list because of being a striker in the
Cripple Creek region. Besides trying
to organize TIL, men, ne advocated So

He did not organize the men at
