SENATOR NEWLAND PRO
TESTS AGAINST DEPARTURE
HAS GRAUE FEARS or TROUBLE
And Has Asked That the President
Delay Their Withdrawal Few
Days at Least Until Gov. Sparks
Can Provide Police Protection.

Washington, D. c., Dec. 27.--Sen-
ator Newlands, of Nevada, is usieg
his strongest efforts to have Pre5i-
dent Roose welt withdraw his orders
for the troops TO leave the Goldfield
mines on December so. The g ator
has grave fears that trouble viii en-
sue Immediately after he troops nave
departed The presidents original
order was that the troops be with
drawn on tine 3oth of December, he
making the order on receipt OF he
findings OF the commission sent to
the scene of the trouble to make a
thorough invesgiga tioneof the aii5
tions at the mines. In his ordyr with
drawing the troops on this date the
president stated that he had been mis-
led to believe that extreme lawiess-
ness prevailed, and that the presence
OF the troops was an absolute neces-
sity for the protection Of life and
property.
His commission reported hat the
troops were not needed, and that the
striking miners were conducting them
selves in the most law abiding man
ner. In his statement the president
took occasion to take fall" out of
the protected interests of corpora
tons saying that the troops were
not employed to protect srv one
class.
Senator Newlands, however, dis
agrees with the president, ard says
that if the troops are Withdrawn no
one can foretell the result lie has
urged upon the president that he de-
lay the departure OF the troops a
few days at least so that Gov. Sparks
