WESTERN MINERS UP
 TO HIGHEST COURT
MOVER AND HAYWOOD CASES GO BEFORE SUPREME COURT ON REFUSAL OF IDAHO TO GRANT HABEAS CORPUS.

Washington. October 10-The supreme court of the United States today heard argument in the cases of Charles B. Mover, w. D. Haywood, and George A. Pettibone. officers and members of the Western Federation of Miners, who are in prison in Canon county, Idaho, under a charge of assassinating former Governor Steeunenberg of that state.
 The case comes to this court on an ap- peal from the decision of the Idaho fed eral court refusing to grant writs of habeas corpus. The principal point in the controversy was the method in which the Idaho authorities secured jurisdiction over the men, who are residents of Colo rado It was alleged on behalf of Mover and his associates that they were kid naped in pursuance of a conspiracy to which the governof of Colorado and the Idaho authorities were parties, and hence The act was denounced as fragrant mal- feasance of executive duty from the contemplation of which right thinking people turn with loathing. Counsel for Idaho contended that the extradition pro- ceeding had been entirely regular and took the position that even if it were true that the governor of Colorado had connived at the removal of the Federation of Labor in an irregular way. their reme- dy was in an action for damages and that the status of the prisoners could not be affected.

PROTEST AGAINST JIM CROW

New York, October 10.-"Suci men as Hoke Smith, John Temple Graves, Varda- man and Tillman ought not to be able to obtain any service from colored man, said Oswald G. Willard, in an address be- fore the National Afro-Amercan Council in session here today. Willard also de- clared that in his opinion no negro should think of contributing as much as one cent for the support of anti-negro newspapers in Georgia. He urged the negroes to organize for the defense and to fight for their rights.
 ''The time IS ripe for serving notice on the country" said he, that further eff forts in any section of the land to degrade the negro to a servile position to crea te that impossible thing. a republic with mil lions of persons taxed but not repre- sented, shall. be fought from now on. Leave the murderlng in cold blood to ;he race that proudly calls itself the superior, the better civilized.

DANGEROUS POINT
 IN THE IRON MARKET
Second Buying Movement is
 Now We'll Under Way
OUTPUT SHOWS INCREASE
Some Sellers Have Asked More Than Fifty Gents Advance for Next Year and Have Been Indig-
 nantly Denounced.

Cleveland O.. October 10.-(Speclal)- i The Iron Trade Review tomorrow will
 %ty;
 The pig iron market is in d very excited oondtion and the situation is now fraught with more danger than at any time this year. A second buying move
 ment within few months for delivery in 1907 is now well under way, and at the game time there is an insistent and con-
 stontly increasing demand for iron for immediate delivery Prices are steadily advancing. and are already excessive In some cases. In Philadelphia, for example, as high as $25 has been paid for prompt delivery of No. foundry and the prob-
 ability of southern grades advancing to
 a basis of s2O, Birmingham, is much more freely discussed.
 Recent heavy rains in the south have seriously interferred with the operation of blast furnaces. An unusual feature in the east is that sales are being made
 of foundry grades to cities upon which he east in ordinary times depends to
 considerable extent for its supplies.
 Sales of Bessemer have not been heavy, Dui pTlctS nave HuNdHCtu dl ltdst OO ctHtS
 dLiing the week and for prompt ship
 ment as high as $22 Pittsfprg has been paid. On foundry grades $l9 valley and
 $l6 Birmingham are now the minimum for No. delivery up to July l. Ferro
 manganese, which is usually law unto itself, Is selling at s5 per ton less than iast week.
 Although the overwhelming sentiment of
 .ilers of iron ore has been In d fever fer delaying the making of prices for , ext year as late as possible, and of then esking not to exceed 70 cents advance, 1t i has leaked out through furnace interests , that some sellers have attempted to make contracts at q higher advance These efforts haven't been successful and have heen so indignantly denounced by conser- vatiye interests that they are likely to be abandoned In finished ines great dc- tivity continues.

Premier Opens Another Battery.

St Petersburg, October 10.-Another battery was turned today on the posi- tion of the constitutional democrats in the open warfare which Premier Stoly pin which is waglng against the ma jority party in the last Parliament. In a circular letter to the provincial gov ernors in reference to the famine re- lief he directs them to remove from the zemstvos all persons endeavorng to conduct electioneerng against the administration under cover of relief work, and not to hesitate to close the Zemstvos when necessary.
 This is in addition to the steps taken against the signers of the Viborg man ifesto whom the governors are direct ed to remove from the provincial mo- bility zemstvo organizations and city councils. The radical attitude of the constitutional democrats at the Telsing fors convention is dictated largely by these and other hostile measures. in- cluding the holy synod's instructions to the clergy to preach against the zen emies of society,"" and a circular for bidding government employees to belong to constitutional democratic or the op- position parties, and ordering the dis missal of persisting members,
 Campaign Is Justified.
 Premier Stolypin's organ says his campaign against the cohstitut' 'onal democrats is justified by the vihorg mani festo, which 1t declares placed the consti- tutional democrats outside the pale of le- gal parties, but it Is said thar the pre- mier's action will probably only have the effect of driving the opposition under ground"
 In view of the financial situation heavy reductions are to be made in the over manned governmental ser vices. This is creating more enemies for the administration.
 The draft of the law providing for religious freedom, which has been de- layed for revision, has again passed the council of ministers. The Strana, though an opposition paper thoroughly. ap- proves of the draft. It declares that it is the only satisfactory law which the administration has yet elaborated.

HEARST IS PLAIN
 WITH WOODRUFF
ALSO SAYS SOME THINGS ABOUT MEN WHO HANDLE CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS MADE BY THE fA. CORPORATIONS.
 " s

New York, October It.--Wi liam R. in reply to one issued by Republican
 State Chairman Woodruff yesterday con- corning the endorsement of judiciary nominations in which MT. Woodruff said :. 'We are unqualifedly opposed to having any union with the Hearst organization
 whatever, or according any benefits that
 may be derived from it.''
 MT. Hearst, in his statement declares that in suggesting fusion on the judiciary ticket the Independence league vas moved
 only by desire to promote the cause of good government and the inteyt st of all
 honest citizens by bringing out dn entire ly non-partizan judiciary ticket. The statement contains the following. Apparently Mir Woodruff, director in insurance companies, has been instructed by MT. Cortelyou, collector Of the insur-
 ance companies, to refuse the republican support to a non-partisan and non-colpor- aton judiciary.
 Tt is unfortunate for the public that
 MT. Woodruff should advise with Attor-
 ney General Mayer In a r1atter concern
 ing the interests of honest ciiizens by
 denying them the right to appear before the courts in action to have their
 votes counted as cast
 Tt Is 1egrettable Tor the general wei
 fare that the republican party should in-
 sst upon not only corporation state
 ticket and a corporation camp1ign man
 ager and a corporation fund collector. but
 also a corporation judiciary. It is natural.
 however that the party should have been urged to take the position by tEe gentle
 man who protected the elected theives and
 received the nomination as reward and
 by the gentleman who collected the cor
 poratlon campaign fund in the last gen.
 eral election and escaped investig ition through the courtesy of the present repub- lican candidate for governor"
