JOINS HIM IN DEATH

st. Petersburg, Sept. S.-Imprison-
ment or deportation are now picturing
to themselves black walls and firing
squads. 1t is, however, apparently in
tended only to make the provisions of
the recent ukase applicable in grave
cases since the military courts are
not permanent and must be specially
constituted on each occasion. 1t is
probable that they will only be re-
sorted to in cases similar to the as
sassination of General Min and the at
tempt on the life of Premier Stolypin,
where prolonged trials keep the ac-
cused persons prominently in the eyes
and sympathies of the public.
Premier StOlypin's communication
speaks so plainly for itself that it
needs little comment or explanation
of its tone. Its issuance at this NOM
ent, on the eve of the council at Pet
erhof of prominent men of all factions
in administration and court circles,
called for Sunday when it is eX-
pected decision will be reached over
the question whether or not the pre-
mier shall have free hand in the gov
ernment of the empire, is the most
significant feature. AS most of the
measures indicated in the text of the
communication have already been full
ly foreshadowed the defiance thrown
down to the reactionists at court in
the express mention of parties ai-
vocating ppstponement of the reform
is taken on all hands as being an in
dication that M. Stolypin feels himself
to be too firm in the saddle to be un-
horsed at the coming conference at
Peterhof, and that he expects to win
his struggle against the postponement
of the convocation of the new parlia-
ment. A hint of his conversion to the
appropriation of private estates to a
limited extent, which it is stated has
occurred since his assumption of the
premiership, is given in M. Stolypin's
reference to the agrarian problem. He
said he was convinced that the distri-
button Of the crown appanage lands
by ordinary purchase operations
through the peasants bank was not
entirely adequate. In some, though
not in many provinces, it would be
necessary to appropriate land and
make reasonable compensation for it,
but his views, the premier added, were
not shared by all his colleagues.

MAY DESERT MITCHELL
TALK OF NEW UNION.
Le0cis for Leader If Pittsburg Dis
trict Increase Is Signed.
[By Telegraph . The TrIban..l


Pittsburg March 25.--If John Mitchell signs a
! scale with the Pittsburg Coal Company it is
certain the miners of this district will break
away from the United Mine Workers They are
angry at the failure of their chief to make good
his promises at the Indianapolis conference, He
removed Patrick Dolan from the presidency of
this district because Dolan declared the men
could not get a 1212 per cent advance. and he
against the Ryan resolution. Now the
miners here are realizing that Dolan right
when he said the union was in no shape to bring
on fight with the operators.
Edward Mckay. who is believed to have been
elected to succeed Dolan in the election which
ended yesterday, said to-day:
We do not want scale signed with one
company. 1t would break up the union in this
district It would dissolve the Interstate agree
ment, and that would put US back ten years.
The men are willing to accept the scale Of 1903,
but want ii for the four states, not for one
company.
Another leader said:
If Mitchell signs with the Pittsburg Coal COM
pany we will not go to work. That would leave
all the other miners in this district out, and
they would leave the union Mitchell has made
a failure Of this fight in his anxiety to defeat
Dolan Vice President T. =. Lewis has shown
real leadership and we are ready to break away,
form an independent union and follow him.
The Irwin men meet Tuesday night. but they
Will not organize under AIitchelIs leadership.
The last time Mitchell called a meeting there
Two years ago, only nIte6n men showed up
That is the way it will be this time
The men in the field would Join in
organization. but they will not be forced
ca1oled into one under Mitchell This fight has
weakened the United Mine Workers all through
this district, but could form union with
the Ohio miners and take in the Irwin field and
be power the other states would have
speCt.
All through this field the same sentiment pre-
vailed. The Irwin convention on Tuesday is not
looked upon as offering much hope in that field.
The men there do not want to strike. but are
contented with the present scale. They are the
weakness of the union in this district.
Indianapolis, March % - Bituminous coal
operators and miners Of the central competitive
and the southwestern districts will make a final
effort tomorrow to come to a decision as to
whether a wage scale, to go into effect on April
]. can be agreed on. The joint scale committees
OF the joint conferences of the two districts will
resume their sessions tomorrow morning after
deadlock lasting five days, during which there
have been no indications Of a weakening Of
either side.
The situation has not changed since the Joint
scale committees adjourned over Sunday. Indi-
cations point to disagreement of the two Joint
committees tomorrow, and the probable calling
together Of the joint conference tomorrow
afternoon when the fight OF the wage scale will
be continued publicly

UP AT NORRIE.
About Fifty Grand Junction People
Are Camping There and Fish
ing is Reported Fine-List
of Campers.

Norrie, on the Colorado Midland.
is proving the most popular fishing
camp for Grand Junction people this
summer
Over fifty Grand Junctionites are
in camp at or near Norrie and are
enticing the trout from the Frying
Pan and its small tributaries.
The following is an almost COM
plete list of Grand Junction people
who are having a jolly outing at
that point:
Mr.. and Mrs. B. N. Neff and family
Mr.. and Mrs. w. NJ Merrill and fam
lily: Mr.. and Mrs. c. Lamb and

H. L. Barnes, Chas. Boyd, Mrs. T.

Miss Elsie Iseminger, Miss Flora Red
den, Miss Gladys Clark.
Several people who have been in
the Norrie camp returned home this
week.
Leon ]. Chapman and family re-
turned last night. Mr.. Chapman say
that fishing is getting better each day
uind is exceptionally good in the
small streams.
Some excellent catches have been
made but gentlman who came down
from Norrie today states that the
gentlemen up at Norrie decided last
night that to Leon Chapman belong
ed the honor of making the biggest
catch of any fisherman in the camp
of the Grand Junctionites.
Between last Monday morning and
last night Mr.. Chapman caught 90
trout, number many times larger
than any of the members of the
crowd now at Norrie have to their
credit for the same length of time.
Last night a somewhat crude medal
fashioned from a time worn and bad
ly smashed sardine can was presented
to Mr.. Chapman, the medal bearing
these words: champion fisherman of
the Norrie camp" The presentation
created much merriment among the
jolly crowd.
A number of people expect to go
up to Norrie within a few days to
join the Grand Junction crowd.
