Bingham Miners Hold Meeting.
Especial to The Herald.)


Bingham. March "a large and en-
thusiaStic mass meeting was held here
tonight under the auspices of the local
branch CT the Western Federation of
Miners to protest against what was
termed "the un-American and unprin-
cipled conduct which has been and is
being accorded" the officers of the fed
Grafton, who are charged in Idaho with
the murder of Ex-Governor Frank Steu-
nenberg.
Six hundred miners attended the
meeting. The principal speakers were
Joseph Gilbert and W. 5. Dalton of Salt
Lake, socialist leaders, and their every
utterance was applauded to the echo.
Mr.. Gilbert made the principal address.
He charged that the Idaho prosecutions
are part and parcel of scheme of the
mine owners to disrupt the federation,
and urged the members of the union
TO extend their moral and financial sup
port to every legitimate effort to frus-
trate this design.
At the conclusion of the meeting a
collection amounting to about 800 was
taken up. This money will be forward
ed to assist in the defense of the ac-
cuSed men.

About the Moros.

Washington, March 9.-The Associ-

members of the house who were with
the Taft expedition to the Philippines

sage of General Wood:
Il remember that little island well.
We went all over it. 1t was there the
sultan Of Sulu entertained US with an
exhibition of the native sport, including
buffalo fights. The inhabitants of the
island are entirely uncivilized, being
Mohammedans and religious fanatics
of the most pronounced type. They
have no military organizations and
their fights are all inspired by religious
beliefs.

the mountain bands can inspire an up
rising, then a swoop on the lower coun-
try will be made. They believe that If

WAR OF DETERMINATION.
Fight Only Part of Deliberate Cam,
paian by General Wood.

Helena, Mont, March 9.-The fight
in Mindanao island between American
troops and Moro outlaws is believed
by officers of the Seventh regiment at
Fort Harrison to have been the result
of deliberate campaign begun bv the
American troops for the purpose of ex-
terminating the Moro brigands which
infest the mountains in the Jolo dis
trict. The Seventh has just returned
from the Philippines after several
years of service in the islands Their
theory is emphasized by the fact that
every branch of the service appears
to have been involved, not only of the
army, but of the navy as well. So
nearly as the officers of the Seventh
can tell from the meager facts at
hand, it appears that a general round
ing up" campaign was begun, cover
ing a large area, or, perhaps. the en-
tire island of MindanaO. As the Amer
lean troops drew their lines, the Moros
are believed to have headed for the
mountain near JOlO. relying upon its
supposed impregnability to defy the
Americans.

were always considered impregnabIe
by the Spanish troops prior 10 Amer

Part of General Campaign.

The battle is believed by the local
officers to have been the final culmina-
ton of this general campaign. and it
is their opinion that, so far as the is
land Of MindanaO at least is concerned
there will be no further guerilla war
fare with the Moro brigands
Quartermaster Sergeant Staples, now
stationed at Fort Harrison, saw SER
vice i'm the immediate vicinity of the
recent fighting. having been stationed
at Jolo, and has a medal of honor for
distinguished services rendered against
these very MorOs. lie describes the
country as very mountainous and at
places impossible. making the opera
lions of the American troops very haz-
ardous.
The crater described in the dis
patches from Manila. he says, is a
craggy peak. very rough and precip-
itous. capable of ascent only at great
est risk, except by beaten paths, which
are heavily fortified by the Moros.
The Spaniards had endeavored many
times during their regime to take this
mountain, but had always been sue
cessfuIIy driven off by the MorOs.
Quartermaster Staples is of the Opin-
ion that the heavy casualty list of the
Americans was due more to an ambush
than to the results of set battle. This
theory, however, is opposed by other
members of his regiment, and especial
" by the officers, who point out that
the casualties extend to every branch
of the service, which would not have
been likely in case of an ambush.
