Western Federation of Miners
 Busy With Mexicans.
Filed Letter With State Der,x,m... stating Causes of Outbreak At His Mine and the Result
 ing Riot.

Washington. June I7.--In a letter ill., ed with the State Department and dat- ed at cananea, Sonora, Mex, June II, W. c. Green, president of the cooper company at whose mines in cananea the rioting occurred early this month. charges that agitators from the wess tern federation of miners had been through the mines melting the Mexi- cans and tells how he was warned of the plot to dynamite the bank and to inaugurate a revolution against Prcsi- dent Diaz. He reviews details already published and says among other things:
 On the night of May 31. I was fr- formed by a man working in the Co., bre Grande that a Mexican there had told him trouble was going to start in Cananea on the morning of June ist at o'clock; that socialist club had held three meetings at midnight on the night of May 80, at which a large number of agitators of socialisttic ten dencies were present; that agitators of the western federation had been through the mines melting the Mexi- cans and that they had been furnish. ing money for the soeialistic club that had been established nt Cananea- He also gave us a couple of copies of a revolutionary circular that had been widely distributed together with number of other details.
 To Dynamite Bank.
 While 1t looked ridiculous to me that anything of that kind could be done. their program included dynamft. ing the new bank where it was report. ed we had $I. .000,0 breaking open the store and getting firearms and ammu. milton. and with them starting a revo- lution against the Diaz government.
 q soon afterward saw a Mexican In whom had confidence and upon ask ing I found that he had heard the same rumors he giving the further de- tall that agitators had stolen a few nights before a few boxes of powder which knew to be the truth"
 Mir. Green adds that all federation agitators were ordered out of town "and ] think there are about eighty seven of the agitators (Mexicansl now in 1ail," that many of them were re- ported from Mexico and southern Call- fornia, who have previously taken part fin labor troubles: and that all the revo- lutionary clubs that stirred up the feel ing escaped across the line, the first night; there will be a permanent gar rison of several hundred men kept there; that complaints of murder have been made against a number of em. ployes as we'll as himself. but the au- thorities have taken ground that the employees acted in the discharge of their duties"
 He estimates that about twenty Mexf. cans were killed for each white man.

Six Story Ryan Annex Building Was
 nestroySd.
 St Paul, Minn.. June 11-The six story Ryan Annex building. was com p1etely gutted bt fire which was dis covered shortly after 8 o'clock this morning and which burned f1ercely all day The estimtted damage to the building and stodks of the occupants is between s450,0ool and s50o,ooo.
 The fire originated in the basement of the store occupied by the Palace Cloth ing Company, supposedly from de- fective electric wire. It had gained great headway when the Fire Depart ment reached the building, but prob ably would have been confined to the basement but for the fact that series of gas explosions prevented the flremen from getting at the flames and caused the flames to spread throughout the en- tire structure.
 Several firemen were badly cut by flying pieces of glass and thirty seven were overcome by heat and smoke. Ten of these were taken to the hospital and the rest to their homes. All will re- cover with the possible exception of Lieut.. w A Edwards. of Company No. 3, who tonight is reported to be in a critical condition.
