AN INJUNCTION
MAYBE ASKED

Duluth, Minn., May 9.-The News
Tribune of Wednesday says: The
state railway and warehouse COM
mission has stirred up a hornets nest
among the jobbers of Duluth. st. Paul
and Minneapolis by its recent order
of heavy reduction of commodity
rates from the head Of the lakes and
the twin cities to certain alleged dis
tributing centers in western Mime
sofa. effective June 3. The result of
the rates will, it is said. be to hurt
the jobbers of the three big cities of
Minnesota, do the so-called terminal
points in the western part of the state
no good, but will confer great bene-
fit on the jobbing interests in another
state, at such towns as Grand Forks,
Wahpeton and Fargo. The johbing
interests of Duluth and the twin cities
are up in arms over the injustice
and will go into the courts to protect
their rights If necessary. The fol-
lowing letter by c. r. Rust to the
state railway and warehouse commits
sion will show the attitude of the in
terests described in the matter:

Gentlemen: We are in receipt of

Washington. D. c., May 9.-It now

Senator Charles A. Culberson has the
best chance of being chosen minority
leader in the senate next December.
According to report. Senator Culber-
son now claims he has enough pledges
from Democratic associates to secure
his election.
Senator Culberson is now serving
his second term in the upper branch
OF the national legislature. and there
are few members of that body of wid-
er political experience. He has been

w htch year he was elected attor-

he ckri four years as governor of
his Ste. e and he has been in the SEN
ate since 1899. At the two last demo-
cratic national conventions he served
as chairman of the Texas delegation.
He comes by his inclination for poll
tics naturally, as his father was a
member of congress from Texas for
twenty-five years.
With congress in long session just
prior to the presidential campaign,
Senator Culberson, as minority lead
er, would have unusual opportunity

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
New York, May 9.-The gravity in
the longshoremen's strike grows with
the hours. This is principally be-
cause the congestion of freight is be-
coming rapidly greater, the total
monetary loss being reckoned thus far
at about 100000, involving business
IN many parts of the country. It is
also because an elemet of the strikers
seems to be ready to resort to violence.
as was manifest last night when 800
Italian and Polish strike-breakers
were surprised and attacked by sew
eral hundred strikers and SYM
pathizers in Williamsburg, and saw
age fight ensued in which stones,
knives and clubs were used and num-
bers of persons were hurt, including
some policemen. Then again, both
sides show fixity of purpose which
does not presage an early end of the
trouble. The strikers, who now num-
ber about 10000, declare that they will
not yield unless their demands for a
higher scale of wages are granted, and
the steamship companies are equally
insistent that no concessions will be
made by them and that they will stand
together to resist the mems exactions.
Meantime, Police Commissioner
Bingham has taken the precaution to
keep all reserves at the stations.

Boise, Ida, May 9.-In the typical
brick court house, wherein justice is
dispensed for the people of Ada coun-
ty, there will be fought out during the
next few months a legal battle with
out parallel in the history Of the coun-
try. No "tenderloin brawl," no COM
monplace murder case, Is this in
which William D. Haywood is the de-
sfendant and the state of Idaho the ac-
cuser. 1t is the first skirmish in
Americas first war of the classes. On
the one side Is ranged the militant
hosts of organized labor under the
red standard of revolution; on the
other, under the black flag of COM
mercial piracy. the buccaneers who
have their headquarters at 26 Wall
street, New York. The guilt or inno-
cence of the accused is small mat
ter and of little moment. Judicially,
1t will be fair trial. no doubt-a fair
trial of the strength Of capital and la
bor. 1t is a clash of economic inter-
ests, in which the men involved are
but pawns, struggling earnestly and
honestly for what they consider JUS
tice. 1t is matter of grave doubt II
any jury of union worlmen could be
secured that would convict the de-
fendant, no matter how strong the evil
dence against him; it is equally doubt
full is any twelve capitalists would
acquit, regardless of any weakness of
the prosecution. Such statements
have warrant in the disagreement of
the jury in the case Of Steve Adams.

solidly for acquittal; the two business
men and three non-union laborers
heard the same testimony, and stood
out to the end for conviction. Attor-
neys for both sides realize that the
selection of the jury is the vital point
in this issue OF life and death. If a
jury of men opposed to the principles
and practices of organized labor can
be secured, then will almost certainly
follow another Haymarket, with the
leaders of the red mob sacrificed to
appease the blood of the mob In broad
cloth.

MURDER OF FORMER
GOVERNOR CHARGED
Action Against Three Other
Defendants Based on Out
come Of This Trial.

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
Boise, Idaho, May 9.-William D.
Haywood, secretary and treasurer of
the Western Federation OF Miners,
was placed on trial at 10:50 today for
completely in the murder at Caldwell,
Idaho. on Dec. 30, 1905, of former
Governor Frank Steunenberg. Hay
wood is one of the four defendants
charged with the murder. The others
are Charles B. Meyer, president of
the federation. George A. Pettibone, a
former member of the executive COM
mittee of the federation, and Harry
Orchard. The last named is expected
to be the most important witness for
the state against Haywood. Meyer and
Pettibone. He is said to have made
confession and it has been the task
of the prosecution to endeavor to
corroborate this confession where
ever possible. The fact that Hay
woods case is the first called for trial
is regarded as Indicating that the pro-
scouting attorneys believe their
strongest evidence is against the
secretary of the federation. The out
come of his case will determine the
action to be taken against the others.

terror jobbers were based upon in
terror jobbing interests securing their
supplies altogether from Twin Cities

not the case. Interior jobbing inter-
ests purchase at least IS per cent of
their merchandise supplies from
points outside of the state, and out

are at this time upon the same basis

as follows:

ing the situation, a Duluth jobber
says:
There is absolutely no jobbing
done at East Grand Forks. Moorhead
Or Breckenridge, and just why Min
nesota railway and warehouse COM
mission should put in reduction of
commodity rates at these points in
order to favor jobbing interests in
towns just across the line in another

Forks. is unexplainable. There is alb
solutely no reasonable excuse for this
action on the part of the railway and
warehouse commission. The sane
judgment of any business man will
instantly prove the imbecility of this
action.
Will Ask Injunction.
"a movement is already on foot on
the part Of the jobbing interests of
St. Paul, Minneapolis. Saltwater, Wi
mona and Duluth to enjoin through
the courts the putting into effect this
order. 1t has been suggested further
than this that a petition be drawn to
appoint a board of medical experts to
examine into the sanity of this Min
nesota railway and warehouse COM
mission. There appears to be abso-
lutely no sensible reason for this ac-
tion of the commission. and 1t is
clearly discrimination in favor of
two or three towns in Minnesota and
three jobbing points in North Dakota
mentioned above.

Special to The Evening Times.

Ft. Ransom, n. D.. May 9-An ex-
animation of the body of William
Lovelace, which was found in a ravine
near Fort Ransom Monday, shows
that the young man met his death as
the result of bullet wound. AS
no weapon of any kind was found
near the body. murder is suspected.
The young man was not known to
have had any bitter enemies, and it
is not thought that he had any great
amount of money on his person at the
time Of his disappearance, but he was
either murdered, or. what seems I'M
probable, shot himself and then
crawled for some distance before
dying.
An inquest will be held over the
body today.
