HUNTERS BEWARE
Farmers in Larger Portions of
Black Hawk Township
Have Organized.
MOVEMENT SPREADS FAST
Many Other Names Being Added to
Membership-Will Prosecute to
Extent of Law.

The hunting nuisance has become un
bearable to the farmers living in the
vicinity of Milan and they have formed
an organization covering practically al
of Black Hawk township west of the
town with the object of standing to
gether in securing the arrest and pros
ecution of those who trespass upon the
premises of any of the members in
search of game. There are two officers
living within the territory now covered
by the organization, one deputy sher
if sworn in for the purpose. and the
other constable. and this fact, with
added modern facilities of modern tel
ephone communication. will render ii
exceedingly difficult for hunter who
has trespassed TO get away from JUS
tice.
Tract Five Miles Long.
The tract in which the bars are now
put up against nimrods extends from
Milan about five miles west and two
miles south. Practically every land
owner or tenant in that area has sign
ed, there being 40 names so far secur-
ed. Every farmer approached on the
subject is anxious to become a member
and ii is expected that the member
ship will be sweled to $50 or more and
in a few weeks.
The occasion for this move for self
protection lies i'll damage that a num-
Der of farmers have sustained recently
In one or two instances cattle have
been killed in the pastures. Poultry
has been shot recently by hunters
who were unable to bag any game. and
fences have been broken down and
gates left open Unfortunately. The
officers of the organization are as fol
lows:
PreSident-LewiS Wilson.
Secretary-Ed Spiegel.
Treasurer. II. Jenkins.
Not Required to Give Notice.
While it is not required of property
owners TO give notice that trespassing
is not allowed. as the law provides 4
penalty whether such notice has been
given or not, the members desire to
avoid trouble. and hence have arranged
for the publication of the names of all
those who have become or shall in fu-
ture become a party to the agreement.

as a den for the counterfeiters, to

President Gompers last night tele-

Surely if Orchard and Adams cannot

can result from Mr.. Mitchell's and my
hearing their general statement? The
justification for the geenral opinion lies

He Is Not Satisfied With Court
of Review Amendment to
Rate Bill
OTHER DEMOCRATS TO FOLLOW
He Wants to Provide Absolutely
Against Notification of Rate Until
Matter Is Fully Adjudicated-WouId
Prefer to Vote for the House Bill
Than Accept the Amendment

Washington, April 2.-Senator Till
man, who has charge of the railway
rate bill in the senate, said last
night that he was not satisfied with
the court review amendment to the
measure which was agreed on Satur-
day at conference of President Roose-
welt, several republican senators who
are supporting the bill and members
of the interstate commerce commission.
Senator Tillman said that he would OPP
pose it on the floor of the senate and he
expressed the opinion that not half a
dozen of his democratic colleagues
would support the amendment.
Senator Tillman declares that the
amendment does not meet the situation
fully inasmuch as it makes provision
setting forth specifically that there
shall be no suspension of the railway
rate fixed by the interstate commerce
commission pending the judicial deter
mination of any case which may be APP
pealed from the rate as established.
This is contention which Senator
Tillman and a number of the demo-
cratic senators have urged, as they ar
que that failure to provide absolutely
against suspension of the rate, oper-
ate, to nullify the objects for which
the legislation is desired. The senator
added that he would prefer to vote for
the house bill as it stood than to ac-
cept the amendment, for the pending
measure gave the right of review where
constitutional questions are involved.
Democrats Discuss Amendments.
The proposed amendment was dis
cus,sed generally among groops OF dem
ocratic senator's. but there was no con-
ference on the subject among them.

ho,lse last night in conference with

TROOPS AWE WINNIPEG MoRs.
Street Railway Strike Brinss Violence
and Call for Soldiers.

Winnipeg, Manitoba, March 31.-The
street railway srtike situation is rapid
lY acquiring grave proportions. A mob
assumed such threatening attitude that
troops were called out yesterday to pa
troll the streets. The regulars lined up
with fixed bayonets. This did not awe
the crowd, which attacked a car and
attempted to pull off the crew. Mayor
Sharpe read the riot act, and was
greeted with boots and jeers. The
s,oliders then loaded with ball car
fridge and, the mob failing to dis
oerse, charge with fixed bayonets
was ordered. This checked the mob.
The few cars that were operated
yesterday were called off at 6 o'clock,
and this no doubt prevented bloody
riots Attacks of the residences of DID,
rectors were threatened. Only. six cars
were run, and they carried more po-
licemen and detectives than regulars.
The feature Of the disturbances was
the arrest of two detectives for as
sault. One of them attacked Mayor
Sharpe and City Solicitor Hunt, not
knowing who they were.
