Lawless Career of Band in Winni-
peg Has Discredited the
Race with Many.

Winnipeg, Man, June 2S:-Theo an-
clan problem. Many of this strange
race have immigrated to Canada,
and some Of them have proved
a terror to law-abiding communi..
ties. There are some 5000 OF
them in this city, and ten times as
many scattered thruout the northwest.
The Winnipeg Galicians have come
thirsty murders, several brutal stab
bling ARRAYS and innumerable smaller
crimes The police say these affairs
can all be traced to eighty-four young
men who came from the villages of
Chorosko, Perromylo and Huvylo.
The young men in question served in
the army together, and came to Canada
about the same time. Arriving in Win
fnipeg,. they took up quarters as close
gether in small bands for offensive and
defensive work. They travel in gangs
and whenever one Of their number gets
into trouble, the rest come to his as
sistance, and between them manage to
put their opponents out Of business.
Whenever one Of them is arrested and
fined. the others club together and get
the man out Of Jail. In certain districts
in the north end Of this city it is not
safe for any "white" man to travel
alone. ~.
At times the whole gang goes out to
raid the house of someone who has
caused their displeasure. and the result
is riot call for the police. The iendish
nature Of these people was shown short
ly after their arrival in Canada, when
two men murdered family of SIX neal
Dominion City for the sake of securing
$50, which was hidden in the house
They eventually paid the extreme pen
| atty, and this served somewhat as 8
warning to the rest.
The respectable element among the
Galicians feel that something should
be done to break up this gang, not
| knowing whose house will be raidee

Des Moines, Iowa, June 23.-Every

men for days on suspicion, without even
complying with the constitutional pro-
vision Of telling with what the prisoner
is charged. ~: =
The only course provided under the
Iowa statutes for a, person falsely i'm
prisoned is a civil action against the
