STATE TROOPS WILL
NOT Be CALLED OUT
(By the Associated Press.)

DULUTH, Mimi, July 25.-Unless
conditions become more aggravated
than they are at present, state troops
will not be called to the Mesaba
range. This was decided by Cover
nor j. A. Johnson today after an in
spection of conditions at Hibbing and
Eveleth, the principal towns in the
strike region. At Hibbing the COVER
nor met Teofl Petriella, manager of
the strike for the Western Fedora
tion of Miners, as we'll as a number
of city officers and strike committee
men.
Being assured that there is no i'm
mediate cause for apprehension at
Hibbing, the governor proceeded to
Eveleth, where he was me- by a
crowd of 100 strikers and escorted
to the city hall. The governor in
a speech said that the state of Min
nesoto would protect every man who
wished to go to work; that the state
would tolerate no interference on
the part of the strikers and should
there by any the state troops would
be called out instanter. FIe did not
believe such contingency would arise
and counselled all to be cool.

INDIAN GIRLS GUARD
GRAVES OF ANCESTORS
THREATEN TO SHOOT ANY PER-
SON WHO ATTEMPTS TO RE-
MOVE BODIES.
(By the Associated Press. }


KANSAS CITY, July 25.-Helena,
Idaho and Ida Conley, sisters and
Wyandotte Indians, began an armed
guard today over the graves of their
ancestors in Huron cemetery in Kan
sas City, Kansas, recently ordered
sold by the government, and threaten
to shoot any person who may attempt
to remove the bodies.
Congress authorized the sale of
the cemetery, set aside for many
years as a tribal burial ground, and a
division of the money among the re-
naming members of the Wyandotte
tribe, first removing the bodies. The
Conley girls say they wont permit
the graves to be touched and they
today began the erection of shanty
upon the out stairs of the cemetery.
Miss Helena Conley said:
From this time on one of the
three Conley sisters will be here in
the day time. At night all three of
us shall sleep here and guard. In
this cemetery are buried one hundred
of our ancestors. The blood of an
cient royalty of France flows in my
veins. My grandfather owned the
whole state of Ohio. Why should we
not be proud of our ancestors and
protect their graves? We shall do it
and woe be to the man that first at
tempts to steal body"
1--WE shall keep right on asking
bids upon the property" said Fl. B..
Durant, chairman of the civil COM
mittee which is trying to sell the
cemetery. "The government is be-
hind u.s."

MINERS VOTE TO Up
HOLD CONSTITUTION
(By the Associated Press. }

GOLDFIELD, New, July 25.-The
mass meeting of the Western Fedora
ton of Miners in the baseball park
to vote on the question of demanding
the discharge of non-union watch
men employed at the mines, resulted
in an all-day session. There was a
strong sentiment against permitting
the question to be made the basis of
possible disagreement with the
Mine Owners association. The COM
mittee having the matter in charge,
realizing that the miners generally
opposed an open break, resorted to
subterfuge to obtain what might be
construed an endorsement of its
views, by submitting the following
question to the miners:
"Shall the laws of the Western
Federation of Miners be main
tained?" BY so wording the propo-
sition to be voted upon, the grievance
committee endeavored to make the
status of the watchmen constitu-
tional question. The vote, which was
not completed until 10 o'clock to-
night, stood 673 for and 436 against
sustaining the constitution. The re-
suit was a surprise and is regarded
as a defeat for the radical element
as represented by the grievance COM
mittee, as it was supposed by many
that the vote would be unanimously
in favor of the question in the form
in which it was submitted. 1t was
evident that the miners as a body
were desirous of avoiding trouble
that might lead to strike. The
next move of the miners is watched
for with interest.

knowingly join together to commit
crime, the act of one is the act OF
the other, no matter where that other
may be at the time of the commits
sion of the crime.
''Then the only question here is as
to whether or not the evidence has
been adduced to satisfy that there
was conspiracy. Counsel for the
defense has said we have not shown
an inner circle or an organized bu-
reau for crime. Well, could pretty
nearly rest the proof of that propo-
sition on the argument of Mr.. Dar-
row, himself"
Senator Borah declared that Attor-
ney Darrow in his address to the jury
had offered subtle justification for
everything charged against the de-
fense. He set himself up in defiance
of all the laws of public decency.
''If the doctrine that Darrow
preached to you be true, am not
surprised that these men committed
murder" said Senator Borah, who
then turned upon Attorney Richard
son and declared that If Harry Or
chard is crazy, it was no compliment
to one of the greatest lawyers in the
west that the maniac did not disclose
any of his insanity in a weeks cross
examination. "The counsel for the
Defense" said Senator Borah, tell
you that Orchard was caught red
handed in the act of killing Steunen-
berg; that he confessed to save his
own neck and that IL he had not
confessed the daisies would have
been blooming over his grave for a
year past. Oh, no, gentlemen of the
jury. If Orchard had not confessed
the attorneys for the Western Fede-
ration of Miners would be in this
court room defending and eulogizing
him as a brave man, member of the
great working class, and my friend
Richardson would convince you be-
yond a reasonable doubt that Or
chard could not be guilty of the kill
ing of Governor Steunenberg because
he was In his room at the Saratoga
hotel when the bomb went of"
At $3.50 p. m. court adjourned un-
til tomorrow at a. m. Senator Bo-
rah will continue his argument then.

GOULD NOT REACH
BASIS OF SETTLEMENT
GOVERNOR GLENN INSISTS
STATE LAW TAKE EFFECT
PENDING DECISION.
(By the Associated Press. }

RALEIGH, N. c., July 25.-
Nothing came from the conference
| between Assistant United States At
torney Edward T. Sanford and Gov
ernor Glenn, concerning a basis o
settlement for the pending railwa,
rate question between the state an(
the Southern railway, involving the
jurisdiction of state and fedora
courts. Governor Glenn emphasized
the fact that it would be useless fol
the railways to make any proposition
that did not first provide that the
state railway law should go into eff.
feet pending the result of litigation
and that if the railroads refused his
offer the state would, in a perfectly
legal way, continue to execute the
law as he sees it. If necessary, he
announced, he will call an extra ses-
sion Of the general assembly that ii
might act as it sees fit upon all mat
ters affecting the litigation; that as
he gets his authority and power
through it, that body alone, by way
of eminent domain, etc., can control
and regulate railroads acting in de-
fiance of both the law and the pro-
ceedings of the legally constituted
state courts.
An extra session seems inevitable
as basis of settlement. The gov
ernor suggested to Mr.. Sanford the
following, which he has wired to the
state solicitor at Asheville:
THAT the Ia cents rate can be
put into effect at once by the rail-
roads until final legal settlement,

of Judge Pritchard discharging from
custody the Southern Railway ticket
agent at Asheville; the Southern
Railway to appeal to the supreme
court of North Carolina in the Wake
county case in which the railway was
fined 100000, and if decided against
it, to go by writ of error to the SUI
preme court of the United States;
each side to cooperate to have both
cases advanced. argued together and
speedily determined; the state at its
option to indict the Atlantic Coast
Line in one case for violation of the
rate law; all other indictments to be
stopped pending final determina-
tion of the cases; the governor to
advise all people against bringing
penalty suits pending final determi-
nation and to ask the people as q
whole to acquiesce in the arrange
ments. The injunction suit pending

The resolution in favor of restora-

MOTION OFFERED BY
COUNSEL WAS DENIED
EFFORTS TO LIMIT SCOPE OF
INQUIRY INTO MRS EDDY'S
CONDITION.
(By the Associated Press }

CONCORD, N. H., July 25.-Mo-
tions offered by counsel in the liti-
cation growing out of the suit for
an accounting of the property of Mrs.
Mary G. Baker Eddy, bearing on
questions which have developed in
the case, were denied by the judge,
Robert N. Chamberlain, in the su-
perior court here today. The mo-
tions included propositions to re-
strict the scope of the inquiry to be
made by the three masters appoint
ey by the court to determine the
mental condition OF Mrs. Eddy; to
grant an allowance from Mrs. Eddy S
property to defray expenses attend
ing the conduct of the case, and to
permit the defendants-a number of
the leading christian scientists-to
become parties to the inquiry by the
masters. All of these motions were
denied by Judge Chamberlain and
while all parties shared in the ad-
verse findings of the court, it was ex-
planned by those familiar with the
proceedings that the decision not to
change the scope of the masters in
quiry gave the advantage to the
"Next Friends" who brought the
original action for an accounting.
The court today granted the right to
counsel to take exceptions. 1t is
said the privilege will be accepted
and the proceedings thereby become
further complicated.
While denying the motions for
funds to prosecute the case, Judge
Chamberlain intimated that should
Mrs. Eddy be found incompetent to
manage her property, the question
might be reopened, and he announc-
