ACCUSES FEDERATION
Captain Green Sends Complaint to
State Department About Miners.

WASHINGTON, June 1S.-ln a mes
sage TO the state department ana dat-
ed Mt Cananea. Sonora, Mexico, w. o.
Greene, president of the copper com
| pany Mt whose mines in Cananea the
recent rioting occurred, charges that
| agitators from the Western Federation
of Miners had been through the mines
melting the Mexicans and tells how
he was warned of the plot to dynamite
the bank and to start n revolution
against President Diaz. He says:
"On the night of May 81 l was in
| formed by a man working in the Cobre
Grande that Il Mexican working there
had told him that trouble was going to
start in Cananea. that a socialist club
had held three meetings Mt midnight on
the night of May 30 ut which q large
number of agitators of socialistic ten
denotes were present, that agltators of
the Western Federation had been
through the mines melting the Next
cans and that they had been furnish
ing money for the socialistic club that
had heen established at Cananea. He
also gave us Il c>uple of copies of a
revolutionary circular that had been
widely distributed, together with a
number of other details.
while it looked ridiculous to me
that anything of that kind could be
done, their programme included dyna-
hitting the bank, where it was report
ed we had 81, 000,000: breaking open
the store and getting firearms and am
munition and with them starting a
revolution against the Diaz govern
ment.
Il soon after saw Il Mexican in
whom | had confidence and upon ask
ing found that he had heard the
same rumors, he giving the further de-
tail that agitators had stolen a few
nights before several boxes of powder,
which know to be the truth"
Mr.. Greene adds that all federation
agitators were ordered out of town,
and II think there are about eighty
seven of the agitators tMexicans) now
in iail.'

MARINE PARADE In
HONOR OF KING HAAKON

CHRISTIANIA, June 1S.-Trond
hjem, Saturday a city Of fishers, yes
terday was a capital. Many of those
who will participate in the corona
ton of King Haakon have already
swelled the population, and others
are %crowding north by steamers and
trains. The .gayety owe the confir-
nation of the country's new indepen-
dence will reach it's full tide Tuesday,
when King Haakon, Queen Maud,
and the baby, Crown Prince Olaf,
reach Trondhjem.
One hears tales that the radical re-
publicans object TO the new monar-
chy. They insist on calling Haakon
'Mr. King" but undoubtedly the
great majority genuinely welcomes
the new order of things.
King Haakon, Queen Maud and
Crown Prince Olaf are continuing
their journey northward along the
coast. Yesterday was spent in the
vicinity of Mode. The day began
with a demonstration by the fisher
feet at Aalesund. Ninety steamers
fifty motor boats, and scores upon
scores of small craft participated. The
royal yacht Heimdal at first steamed
through the fleet and was wildly
cheered, and then the fleet formed in
two long columns and steamed up the
ford, the Heimdal leading. After the
conclusion of the parade all the YES
sells passed in review before the
Heimdal.
A majority of the vessels of the
visiting fleet will reach Trondhjem
by Wednesday.

WANT REPORTS HURRIED
Jersey Officials Discussing Plans to
Avoid Delays.

TRENTON, June 1S:-Inyestiga-
tion is being made in a number OF
the departments inJthe state house to
ascertain whether X would be possi-
Bile to have annual reports ready to
be laid before theilegislature at the
opening of its session. The investi-
cation was taken APP after Governor
Stokes had vetoed Assemblyman
Morgan's bill requiring that all such
reports should be sent in at least ten
days before the OPENING of the legis-
lature. In vetoingLthei bill the COVER
nor said that while it's object was
good, it had been shown that to ac-
complish it was practically impossi-
BILE under existing, conditions.
It seems that the present method
of awarding the contracts for print
ing the reports is largely responsible
for the delay in getting them out
early in the year.
The contracs are not awarded UNI
til after November /, the beginning
of the fiscal year, and the printer
who gets the contracts is usually so
rushed with work that it is often six
months and more before he is able
to complete the reports. This can
not but produce embarrassment. IL
has been suggested that the matter
could be remedied by awarding the
contracts earlier so that the printer
could have them finished by the time
the legislature meets. This would be
satisfactory to the departments that
have the data for their reports on
hand early, but there are m de-
partments which could not possibly
be ready earlier than November |.
The Department of Banking and In
is one which does not have
the data for its annual reports in
hand until after January l..
The suggestion has been made that
the trouble might be obviated by
having an official state printer, but
to this the objection is raised that
having the state printing done in that
way would probably be much o
expensive than awarding it by COM
petitive bidding.

HEAVY BLOWS

President Reviews Errors Of
WadSWOrth' BiII--AdamS AC-
cepts President Plans.

WASHINGTON, sHne 1S.-President
Roosevelt has made public the second
letter he has sent to Chairman Wads-
worth of the house agricultural com
mittee bearing on the faults of the
meat inspection measure which the
committee has prepared as a substitute
for the Beveridge amendment, which,
in the presidents estimation, is cal
culated to remedy the crying evils of
the slaughter house and packing house
| system. His letter says in part:
I'm the first place | wish to prompt
ly acknowledge the one portion of your
letter in which you are in the main
right. | was In error in the statement
which | accepted from Senator Bevi
eridge that there was no provision for
making the plants accessible at all
hours to the inspectors. The provision
was put in in another place, but 1t Is
not as good as the original provision.
1.-THE court provision is the n to
which l most object, although by no
means the only one to which | object.
1t is one of many. AS regards this l
wish to repeat that if deliberately de-
signed to prevent the %remedying of the
evils complained of this is the exact
provision which the friends of the
packers and the packers themselves
would have provided. 1t is absurd to
assert that any such provision is
needed.
ITO so much of your letter as speaks
of my having made innuendoes about
a committee of the house or of your
knowledge of the English language,
etc, it is not necessary to make any
answer. You state that If l Or my adj
visers will point out specifically where
in the bill fails to accomplish my pur-
pose 1T will be promptly remedied' 1
am happy to tell you that ! have today
seen a member of your committee, Mr.
Adams, seeing him by request Of
Speaker Cannon, and went over with
him, together with Mr.. McCabe and
Mr.. Reynolds, the various points i'll
which the bill as you have reported it
fails to accomplish Il purpose and
made the specific recommendation nee
essary in each case to remedy the fail
ure, and in each case Mr.. Adams
stated that he personally would accept
the alterations we proposed. He agrees
with me that the court review PROPOSE
ton should be excluded. He agrees
as to the dozen other changes which
we think should be made.
II care not n whit for the language
of the amendment. What l am con
cerned With is to have it accomplish
the object | have in view-namely. a
thorough and rigid and not a sham in
spection. In my judgment the amend
ment as reported by you fails to ac-
complish this object, whereas the Bev-
eridge amendment and the house
amendment with the changes which
Mr.. Adams has stated he will gladly
accept. both substantially accomplish
the purpose | have in view"

ST. PETERSBURG, June 1S.-It is
semiolficially stated that Emperor
Nicholas has decided to declare IL re.
cess of parliament ON June % and that
his majesty and the royal family will
Immediately afterward leave Peterhof
for a cruise in Finnish fiords on board
the imperial yacht Standard, which is
being fitted out for that purpose.
Such Il decision seems to tempt fate,
for If 1t is executed it will almost GER
tainly be the signal for an immediate
bloody struggle. &
The Labor party in the douma has
passed Il resolution declaring that nei-
Their now nor in the rear future can
parliament be dissolved, that at no
time will the members leave their
posts and that as long as the arbitrari-
ness and outrages of the government
continue and the terrors of impending
''pogroms' and the sufferings of the
peasantry and workmen reign parlia-
ment must continue to work until it
has achieved "a land of freedom" or
exhausted all means to this end.
An official communication has been
issued saying that looting ut Rialystok
has ceased and order has been restor-
ed. The number of the dead has not
been definitely ascertained, but ii is
said more than thirty dead have been
buried.
The three delegates sent there by the
lower house of parliament have arriv-
ed and begun an investigation of the
disturbance.
The general situation, however, is
hourly growing more disquieting, and
the country seems to be on the verge
of another gigantic %upheaval. In st.
Petersburg and Moscow the %populace
is greatly excited, and nothing is talked
of except a general political strike,
which would bring the government to
its knees. The proletariat leaders, who
have been preparing for months for Il
blow, believe the moment has come to
strike. The agrarian troubles now are
sufficiently extended. and disorders in
the army are rife. The government has
openly refused to accede to the de-
mands of parliament, and a rupture is
imminent. The p%roletariat leaders are
determined that they and not parlia-
ment shall take over the reins of gov
eminent and forever enjoy the fruits of
victory.
