BILE. He is represented there by Cap
tain Cox, with whom he is in close
touch by wire. The governor stated
tonight that news he had from Gold
field told of no change in the situation
there He added that the presence of
troops afforded him great relief and
continued:
"The course of appealing for aid,
as | have stated before was absolute
ly necessary to protect the miners
themselves / have advices that the
quarrel is not SO much between the
owners and workers as it is among
the miners who seem to be divided
against themselves. The presence of
troops will tend greatly to restore
confidence and | believe prevent
bloodshed. Prompt action on the
part of the government in complying
with our request has greatly reduced
the danger that would have other
wise prevailed.
81 have a telegram from Goldfield
confirming the report that an at
tempt was made to blow up the power
plant of the California Electric COM
pany. The details are meager. One
hundred sticks of dynamite were
placed beneath the building and caps
attached to them. The caps exploded,
but fortunately the powder was
frozen and did not go off. The at
tempt to destroy the plant was made
soon after dark. The explosion or
the caps caused an alarm and in the
investigation mat followed the pow
der and burned fuses were discov-
cred. The plot is believed to be the
work of those intent on placing the
city in darkness and making the work
of the troops more difficult

1t is understood by the mine oper-
ators that the coming of the troops
means a permanent garrison. 1t is
declared the plan has been under con-
sideration for several months and
that a number of applications have
been made by the mine owners
throughout the state for such action
by the war department.
In a statement issued yesterday the
mine owners after reviewing their
side of the controversy mention cases
of violence committed by members OF
the federation, instancing an incident
of Saturday night, when it is claimed
Herbert r. Bedford, son of James
Bedford, who was for many years
representative of Colorado in con-
gress, was beaten in a dark place in
Main street, and left for dead. The
associations statement concludes as
follows:
while the district attorney has
done his duty, and. we believe the
sheriff and constable are personally
honest and sincere in their desire to
enforce the law, their environment is
such that it is impossible for them to
do so. Goldfeld is upon desert al
most 200 miles in every direction
from a settled country; and has be-
come rendezvous for all lawless ele.
ments and anarchistic agitators.
when the mine owners determ1n-
ed to make supreme effort to throw
off their fetters they laid the facts
before the governor and asked FOR his
assistance. He has responded by nav
ing the federal government SEND
troops to the scene for use in case
of necessity.
1--WE propose to adopt fair and
reasonable rules for the operation o1
our properties and employ men ire
spective of whether they belong tc
the union.

ageous miners are in Goldfield VINO

there are not, we will be compellec

AGREE ON PLAN.
Japan Will Stop All LabOrers From
Coming to Country.

TOXIC, Dec. 9.-There is reason
to believe that the entire question of
the emigration of japanese to Ameri-
ca has been satisfactorily settled, at
least for the present, after series of
conferences, which have been held
between United States Ambassador
O'Brien and Minister of Foreign At
fairs Hayashi. 1t is understood that
at their last meeting the representa-
tives of the Japanese government out
lined plan by which it was agreed
to limit emigration to students and
commercial men having known means
of support, and to entirely prevent
japanese laborers from going to
America. This arrangement will en-
tail the closest supervision on the
part of the Japanese authorities.

EMPLOYE ACCUSED
Of ROBB|NG POLY
FORMER JANIT0R ARRESTED
ON SUSPICION
Is Identified by a Pawnbroker with
Whom a Stolen Clarinet Was
PIedged-Was Formerly
in Trouble

r. r. Killian, former janitor at the
Polytechnic high school, was arrested
yesterday by Patrolman Halleck on
suspicion of being connected with the
robbery of the building the night of
March 21.
Killian is said to have been identified
by a pawnbroker at whose shop the
clarinet which was stolen from the
school was paWned. The young man
is said to have confessed to Principal
Francis of the high school that he was
the one who committed the theft.
Killian was discharged from his po-
sition at the school some time ago. AT
that time he was accused of stealing
a watch from one of the teachers, but
later he returned the article and said
he had found it.
Last Thursday night some one en-
tered the building and carried off a
ley, one of the pupils. Stanley's name
was engraved on the inside of the in
strument. Wednesday this instrument
was found in an East First street pawn
shop. According to the books at the
shop the man who sold it had given
the name of its owner.
Three young men who were suspected
of knowing something of the robbery
were taken to the police station and
closely questioned by the detectives.
They were unable to give any infor-
nation, but from hints they dropped
the detectives were led to suspect Kill
lian might know something of the rob-
berry. When confronted by the pawn
broker the young man is said to have
broken down.
Kulian was taken to the central sta
tion, but was not booked. He will be
questioned by the police today.
