FOR CRUELTY EXCEEDING THAT

A HUNDRED THOUSAND SLAIN

Mass Meeting at Washington De-
cIarss These crimes Must Be
stopped-TerribIe Arraignment BY
Representative suIxer.
Washington.-A mass meeting of
citizens OF Washington was held in
Belasco's theater Sunday night to ex-
press sentiments on the atrocities on
the Jews in Russia. The theater was
crowded. Resolutions which were
adopted endorsed speeches made at
the meeting and denounced these ter
rible atrocities as great crimes against
a common humanity that must be
stopped at once, and for all time to
come by the Russian government
Representative William Sulzer pre-
sided. He said:
I'VE have met tonight to protest
against wrongs and conditions and out
RACES in Russia. We arraign the gov
ernment Of the Gear tonight before the
bar of civilization for great crimes
against common humanity. The CIV
ilized world is stunned and shocked
and grleved by the inhuman barbara
ties and appalling atrocities which
have been going on for the past two
years in Russia.
OuAAu6 bnOiL tillS dH IclldDiy
informed by those most competent to
testify, more than 100000 innocent
Jews. peaceable Catholics, Poles, inof-
fensive Luoheran Firms and law-abid-
ing Christian Armenians-helpless and
defenseless men and women and chill.
dren-absolutely guilty Of no wrong
have been cruelty, inhumanely, pitt.
lessly and barbarously murdered and
butchered to make a Russian holiday.
There has been nothing like It in all
the history Of the world. not during the
horrors of the dark ages. All the hor-
rors of the Inquisition, all the bigoted
religious prosecutions Of the middle
ages, pale into insignificance.
"Oflcial Russia is responsible for
these awful atrocities. l charge on my
responsibility as a member Of Congress
that 1t is solemnly alleged, and not de-
MED, and there is widespread and
prevalent feeling throughout the world
that 1t Is true, that these terrible
crimes of rapine and pillage and de-
vastation, that these brutal atrocities,
and that these monstrous murders of
the helpless Jews and Firms and Poles
and Armenians in Russia, are secretly
connived at by the Russian govern
ment, that they have been melted by
the Russian ruling classes-the grand
dukes-and that they are instigated,
directly and indirectly, by high officials
n Russia for religious and political
purposes.
Il hope what we do here, and what
we say here, will reach the ears of the
cringing Czar and his corrupt cabal of
grand dukes. l believe that our pro-
test. our condemnation and onr denun-
citation will be heard in St. Petersburg
and that the Russian government will
see to 1t that the wholesale butchery Of
the innocents be stopped"

Stidger had been held in the county
jail since 10 o'clock Saturday night on
his failure to pay a fine of $500 i'm

Deadly Utah snowsIides.

Salt Lake.-Snowslides in the Wa.
satch mountains, east of Salt Lake.
killed seven men Friday night, six be-
ing lost at Alta, in Little Cottonwood
canon, and one at the Wyoming mine,
in American Fork canon, on the other
side of the range. The six men killed
at Alta were in a saloon when the
building was overwhelmed by terrific
slide which came without warning.
The men now lie buried under
twenty feet of snow and rocks at the
bottom Of the gulch. The wet snow
was sufficient to suffocate them in a
few minutes, even If they escaped
death in the crushing of the building
in which they were.
In American Fork canon, George
Tynge, lessee OF the Wyoming mine
was carried away by a slide which
came few hours earlier than the one
at Alta Tynge was in his office near
the mouth of the mine. The building
was broken into fragments and car
ried away.
In another building which was de-
molished by the same slide a man
named Kruz was cast to the top Ct the
slide and rode to the bottom of the
canon without injury further than a
few minor bruises.

DRY DOCK At SEA.
Four Vessels Towing Big Structure to
the Philippines.

The huge floating drydock Dewey,
now on her way from the Pa,uxent
river to the Philippines. is proving her.
self a thoroughly seaworthy craft. Dis
patches from Norfolk. Virginia. an
nounce that mails received from the
naval fleet which is towing the dry
dock tell of her satisfactory behavior
in a storm of Cape Hatteras. and any
ship or drydock or other object built
to float which can weather a Cape Hat
teras storm deserves to be marked o.
X. without further inquiry.
There certainly never was a stranger
thing seen on the waters than the
Dewey as she will appear to passing
vessels. A big red box of steel. 500
feet long. 134 feet wide. and towering
forty-two feet above the water with
straight sides and square corners,
towed by three or four vessels with
gigantic cables so long that there ap-
pears to be no connection between the
tugs and the dock-that's the way the
Dewey will look to the ships that en-
counter her on the high seas. In the
construction of this strange craft H.
900 tons of steel. 100000 rivets and
130 tons of paint were used. The cost
was $1,250.0 900. and she is not only the
piSScsl uodliHS uTyuOCh III tue WOTiu,
but SO big that the largest and heav-
lest warship in existence could be
placed ir her and lifted high and dry
above the water. The capacity of the
Dewey is 10000 tons. but the largest
warship yet projected is only $4,000
tons.
II this drydock makes the voyage to
Manila in safety the United States
will then be prepared for any contin-
gency which may arise in time of war.
Under present conditions our warships
in the far East dock at Hong Kong or
Shanghai, but il war should arise be-
tween America and any other nation
those ports would be closed to Ameri-
can ships. 1t was to guard against the
dangers to which we would thus be ex-
posed that the government ordered the
construction of the Dewey. The dis
tance, $4,000 miles, is much longer
than a floating drydock has ever be-
fore been towed, but the immense size
of the thing is an element of safety,
and naval officials consider that there
is less risk in the undertaking than
would appear at first thought.-Colo-

Charge Of Intimidation.

Washington.-B. S. Rodey, former
delegate to Congress from New Mex
leo, created a furore at Fridays hear
ing on the joint statehood bill before
the House committee on territories by
announcing that corporate interests
in Arizona had suppressed public opin-
ion in favor of joint statehood and
declared that popular vote on the
question would show a decided major
ity in favor of the admission of Ari-
zona and New Mexico as one state.
There has been intense persecu-
tion in Arizona" Mr.. Rodey declared.
Special interests have perpetrated out
rageous and scandalous suppression of
public opinion for the last six months.
Thousands favor joint statehood who
do not dare to say SO"

LAW OFFICER IN JAIL.
District Attorney stidser Of Denver
Committed for Contempt.

SOOusuiAAS0 S0UkGnuRk~
Denver.!The News Of Sunday
morning says: District Attorney
Stidger spent last night in jail and
will have to stay there until Monday.
He was arrested at 8 o'clock last night
upon an order signed by District
Judge Frank T. johnson, charging him
with contempt of court. The order
committed him to the county jail until
he had paid q fine of $500 into the
court treasury. Sheriff Nisbet served
the order. He was accompanied by
his attorneys. Willis Elliott and Rod
ney J. Bardwell. Before acting he
had asked their advice and was told
by them to serve the order, as the only
safe thing to do. They reserved their
judgment on its validity.
The district attorney was given a
cot in the warden's quarters in the
basement of the jail. He went to bed
about IL o'clock. After he had been
made fairly comfortable he gave out
the following statement:
Il was taken completely by surprise
when I heard from Judge Johnsons
lips that was on trial for contempt
He had given me no intimation that
he had any intention Of bringing such
charge against me. l believe tho
whole thing was nothing more than 6.
conspiracy to get me before him and
have me testify under oath that had
purposely transferred cases from his
division to the criminal division Of the
District Court.
ITO say that l was surprised when
he informed me that l was fined for
contempt does not explain my feelings.
At the most. any action that l took
was but constructive contempt.
committed no contempt in his pres
ence or before the court. And in cases
Of constructive contempt the accused
Is entitled to due notice and to trial
by jury. To my mind his action
throughout has been entirely outside
the pale of the law"
The case is the result of an attempt
by Judge Johnson to enforce the laws
against gambling and Sunday liquor
selling. Persons arrested by direction
of Judge johnson, instead of being
brought before his court, were
taken before Judge Palmer's d.
vision of the court by District
Attorney Stidger, where they prac-
tically escaped punishment. Mr..
Stidger claims that his action was in
accordance with rules of the court,
while Judge Johnson holds that the
district attorney was guilty of con-
tempt in removing to another division
of the court cases originating in his
division.
The case will no doubt be carried
to the Supreme Court of tho State for
a final decision.
