L. Bowron OF Darlington, Eng, Mar
rates Unpleasant Circumstances.
1T was three days and nights of miss
cry and disgust" said l.. Bowron Of
Darlington, Eng, in telling of his ex-
perience at Ellis Island. No blame is
attached to the authorities at that sta
ton by Mr.. Bowron, but the fault OF
the deplorable conditions which exist
is laid to the terrible crowds of emf
grants. Mr.. Bowron and his two little
daughters. Ethel and Nora, are visit
ing at the home of his niece, Mrs.
Mark Noble, SIT East Main street. Mrs.
Bowron and their 5-year-old son were
rejected at Ellis Island because of a
scalp disease with which the boy was
affected.
In speaking of the trip to this coun-
try, Mr. Bowron said:
with my wife and children sailed
from England on Tuesday, April 10.
AS we boarded the Cunard line boat
CORONA, on which we had steerage pas
sage, we were examined by the ply
sicians. The doctor took my little boy,
held him up in the air and looked at
him. He said to me: This little fell
low is all right, is he not?' And said
he was, for surely thought SO or
would not have started on the trip
with him.
''Then the voyage commenced. It
was awful, though only foretaste of
what was to come. My wife was sick
and could not eat the meals that were
served in the steerage cabin even
when she was able to get to the table,
which was very seldom. The boat, so
was told, was carrying 1900 steerage
passengers, just 600 more than her ca
pacity. This made everything crowd
ed. We had berth in the steerage
ourselves but all of the halls and pas
sage ways were filled with people of
all nationalities.
| Upon arriving in New York harbor,
we were informed that $4,000 emf
grants were ahead Of us for examina-
ton. We remained on board ship from
4 Wednesday until Saturday, before per-
mitted to be examined Finally we
were taken before the physicians. My
boy was rejected. They had us up five
times. The fourth time, they an
nounced that we would all have to re-
turn, but securdd missionary,

CONDEMNS ACTION.
A. H. FIoaten Of Colorado Bitterly Ar
raisns Western State Authorities.

From Mondays Daily.
Charles the First of England lost
his head because he refused to grant
the writ of habeas corpus, which was
refused these men," said A. H. Floaten
of Colorado, in his address, "The Glass
War in Colorado" which he made last
evening before large audience at
Labor hail. His address was made
protesting against the illegal abduction
OF Charles Meyer, William D. Haywood
and c. R. Pettibone, charged with the
murder of Ex-Governor Steunenberg
of Idaho. December 2, 1905, and Vim
cent St. John, accused of the murder
OF man killed in the riot of 1901.
In the course of his address Mr..
Floaten stated that the first three were
not in the state of Idaho at the time
the crime was committed, and at the
time of the riot st. John was 400 miles
away to his personal knowledge, as he
was member of the coroner's Jury
which investigated the killing. In
speaking of the arrest of these men,
the speaker stated that they were Sc
cretly arrested at Denver on Saturday
night, February II, after the courts
were closed, without a warrant being
served on them.
EARLY Sunday morning they were
placed on special train and railroad
ed through to Idaho, where the war
rants were served
"The purpose of this investigation is
not to find out who committed these
crimes" said Mr. Floaten, "but it is a
part of the fight between the mine
owners and the Western Federation of
Miners. They were taken to Idaho,
an unfrieldly country, because the cap
italists knew that they could not be
convicted in Denver, where they are
SO well known. 1t is in Denver that
they should have been tried legally,
and then only for conspiracy, as that
is the only thing they could possibly
be guilty Of"
Mr.. Floaten also stated that the
cause of the last strike in Colorado
was for the enforcing of the eight hour
law. He said that the eight hour law
was passed by a large majority, but
that the legislature refused to enact
penalty, and when the people tried
to enforce the law, Governor Peabody
sent out troops to prevent it's enforce
ment, and the supreme court Of the
state sustained him.
Mr.. Floaten's address was a severe
and bitter arraignment Of the Capital
istic class throughout, not only in
Colorado, but in all parts Of the nation.
These four men mentioned were COM
pared to the martyrs of former days.

in every possible way.
