READY FOR TROUBLE
MEN IN MINNESOTA MINING DIS
TRlcTS ARM THEMSELVES.
ALL pFPUTIES ARE UNDER ARMS
The Chief Stumbling Block in the
Way Of a Settlement Is Recoon'
ton OF the Union.

Duluth, NINA telephone mes
sage Sunday night from Eoyey,
Mimi, says that Sheriff Hooli-
han, OF ltasca county, has ordered all
deputies under arms and instructed
them to be prepared to move at mo-
ments notice.
A mass meeting OF representative
citizens was held at Bovey SUNDAY.
with the result that about $50 men
under arms are reported to be camped
about the city hall, prepared to en-
train in ten minutes. There are about
100 men under arms at the Holman
location, who will be picked up en-
route to Nashwauk The mines at
Nashwauk have not been closed at
all.
1t is said to be the strongest camp
OF the Western Federation of Min
ers. Mayor Cullum, of Duluth said
that he was very hopeful OF being aGlc
| to announce by Monday that the OBJ.
| jections to n complete understanding
| between the ore handlers and employ.
ers had been reached.
The chief stumbling block in the
way OF the settlement of the ore han
| dlers' strike on the docks here and
at The Mallouez dock, at superior and
Two Harbors, Is the question OF the
recognition Of the union. The men
are said to be satisfied with their pay
that Is, they will waive the demand
for the increase asked. They are
earning from 81 % to $3.50 a day
II. l.. Pierce, chief deputy sheriff
said that no word had been received
from Sheriff Bates, who Is in one o.
the range towns. Pierce does no
consider the strike on the ranges serl
Gus.
1T is my opinion" said he. "tha
the ranges strike is very much over
estimated in the east. When th'
dock strike is settled and the mininl
company attempts to start its mines
then we will see whether the strik,
will pan out. don't believe over 2
per cent Of the miners on the range
are members of the union or are sym
pathizers. There are lot OF Hunga
rians, Montenegrans and the bette
class OF Italians there who don't wan
to go on strike. They want to worl
peaceably and are satisfied The
make from 81 to $3.50 n day by con
tract plan. The Western Federatio;
OF Miners wants the plan done ava

will give the man who is not so e,

Il n says that Third Officer Hawse

CLASH WITH FRENCH TROOPS.
Riot Follows Attack by Soldiers and
Fresh Outbreak Is Feared.

Perpignan, Frdnce.-Many civilians
were injured wnen the police pre-
vented n riot here Thursday. 1t
is feared that a fight between citi-
zens and the Twenty.fourth Colonial
regiment may take place at any time.
The soldiers of the regiment were
forced to remain in their barracks as
n result OF recent fight. The civil.
ians surrounded the barracks where
the soldiers were confined. Just as
the mob crowded close to the walls
the soldiers rushed to the windows
and hurled down stones and beams
that they had torn from the partitions
of the structure within. Many were
hurt and great excitement followed.
The police had anticipated trouble and
rushed into the square, driving out the
citizens. after the wounded had been
carried away, and practically holding
the imprisoned soldiers In a state OF
siege. The trouble is said to have de-
veloped from Ill feeling engendered at
the time of the wine growers strike.
