MOB after OFFICER
WANT REVENGE FOR DEATH OF
ESCAPING CONVICT.
WAS BEING HELD FOR INVESTIGATION
Suspected of Having Some knowledge
of the Holdup of the North
Coast Limited.

Butte, Mont.-Patrol Driver Charles
Jackson shot and killed Harry
Cole while the latter was attempting
to escape and an incensed mob OF
5000, led by brothers of Cole, made
an Intellectual attempt to lynch De-
tective Charles McGarvey, the crowd
laboring under the impression that it
was that officer who had done the
shooting. Cole had been arrested by
McGarvey on a forgery charge and
was suspected of being one of the
two bandits who, several days ago.,
held up the North Coast Limited on
the Northern Pacific at Welch's Spur,
numbering Engineer Frank Glow and
wounding Fireman Thomas Sullivan.
Cole is a brother of George Cole. who
is now serving a 14-year sentence in
the Deer Lodge penitentiary for the
robbery of the Burlington flyer near
this city two years ago. Harry Cole
has been under surveillance of the
officers since the holdup of the North
Coast Limited, and Friday evening
was taken into custody by officers.
While he was being sweated in the
office of police, Cole, it is stated,
definitely said that he knew all about
the holdup of the limited and made a
dash from the o and ran down an
alley leading from the police station.
An officer started for Cole, but tripped
over the Threshold of the door and
fell. McGarvey followed and fell over
the other policeman. Patrol Driver
Jackson, seeing that Cole was about
to escape, fired and hit the fleeing
man in the back, killing him alslost
instantly. An immense crowd imme-
diately gathered and the impression
gaining ground that McGarvey had
killed an innocent drunken man, the
cry went up, Hang McGarvey." Tim
othy Cole and another brother and a
cousin of the dead man took the lead
ership of the mob and, with more than
1000 men, fastened to the county
Jail, where they thought McGarvey
was hiding. They attempted to force
JHSll way InIOuSu LuC lluS VI OlllCClo
with drawn guns. Inside the jail were
more officers armed with rifles. The
mob secured a long rope from a der
rick used in the construction of a
building nearby and the shout was
made to down the officers.
At this point Deputy Sheriff Jack
Wyman stopped the leaders of the
mob and told them that McGarvey
had left the Jail and that they were
welcome to search the Jail. This was
done, no trace of the detective being
found.
The mob leaders declared, how
ever, they would have the life of the
| slayer of Cole and if an attempt is
made to raid the city or county jails,
blood will be spilled, judging from the
temper of the officers.

NO ENTHUSIASM EXPRESSED.
The Irish Bill Does Not Seem to
Please Anyone.

London, Eng.-The United King
dom has had one full day to digest Mr..
Birrelrs Irish bill, but not the small
est note of enthusiasm for the pro-
posed council has been heard in any
quarter. The proposed measure is rec
ognized everywhere to be a faint
hearted attempt to redeem campaign
promises. Mr.. B~alfour's taunt of MI.
Birrell, that his heart was not in his
work, seems to hit the mark. Ire
land appears ever less pleased than
England.
Irish legislation and the imperial
conference appears to be stumbling
blocks which may eventually cause
the downfall of the Campbell-Banner-
man cabinet.
Both parties r attempting to ex-
plot the visiting colonial premieEs for
their own purposes. The opposition
has taken up the catchword, 1.-THE
great REFUSAL" for the governments
rejection of all preferential schemes
and the premier's promise to do some
strong talking in the way of an ap-
peal to public sentiment before leav-
ing England.

BLOCKS STATEHOOD
DEMOCRATS HURL WARM cRiTI-
clsM AT REPUBLICANS.
NO SOLUTION OF THE DEADLOCK
Convention Chief Won't File constitu-
ton, and Election Call
Will Not Issue.

Guthrie, Okla.-That the refusal of
Territorial Secretary Filson to accept
FOR filing one of the seven copies OF
the constitution and election ordi-
nance, offered by William H.. Murray,
president of the constitutional con-
yention, embodies a substantial ev-
idence of the purpose of republican
politicians to keep Oklahoma and In
dian Territory from statehood until
after the next general election, is de-
clared by the Oklahoma democratic
central committee and other party
leaders. The ~secretary's attitude, with
the stand taken by Gov. Frantz, in re-
fusing to issue an election proclama-
ton until the original parchment copy
of the constitution is filed, has driven
democratic party men to warm state
ments. There is no indication of a
solution of the deadlock.
Gov. Frantz has reiterated his de-
termination not to call the election
until President Murray gives up the
original constitution. The democratic
leader is equally as emphatic in his
assertion that he will not turn the
documents over to the republican Of
ficials. An explanation of his position
is contained in a %2,000-word statement,
in which he says 1.-The conspiracy
Matched by republican office holders to
defeat statehood for Oklahoma and In
dian Territory is blatant and palable
to serious-minded voters"
When the original constitution
passes from the hands of the presi-
dent, to which it was entrusted by the
delegates, the convention cease TO ex-
list. This is exactly what Murray and
the democratic leaders wish to avoid.
Three suits, purporting to prevent the
division of counties as mapped out by
the convention, are pending in the Ok
lahoma supreme court. Until all liti-
cation is at an end the convention de-
sires to remain intact. The body was
recently adjourned until August 5, the
day before election.
Democrats do not deny that state
hood is in imminent danger.

RIOT IN new YORK
BEAT sTRIKEaBREAKERs AND
TRY TO BURN LINER.
THEY SHOOT At SHIPS OFFICERS
Policemen Are overpowered in Bat
tle-BowIders, Knives and
Pistols Used.

New York, N. Y.-By a concerted
plan, 300 Italian freighthandlers,
armed with powders, cotton hooks,
knives and pistols, charged the pier OF
the Italian line at the foot of West
Thirty-fourth street. The invaders
overpowered two policemen, exchanged
pistol shots with officers of a liner,
beat $50 strike-breakers, destroyed
some freight, tried to set fire to the
steamer Campania, and fought a squad
of reserves for ten minutes. 1t was
the most desperate and most costly
riot that has yet marked the great
strike of the 3 10000 longshoremen.
The attack came when Dominick
Pace and Dominick Delcati, foremen
for Brady & Coil. boss ~stevedores,
opened the big iron doors at the West
street end of the pier to admit a
caravan of loaded trucks. Inside $50
Siciliians, who had been imported
from Philadelphia, were trying to get
the consignments out of the Campania
and the City OF Turin.
Most of the rioters raced down the
pier shed, straight for the gang planks
of the Campania. From the hold a
babble of frightened shrieks was al
ready issuing. The strikebreakers
had heard them coming, and were be-
ginning to call on the saints and the
police for protection.
Perhaps a third Of the invaders de-
tached themselves from the main body
and proceeded to do what damage they
could. They ripped open bales of
r~aisins, smashed crates of lemons and
tore boxes and barrels apart, stuffing
their pockets with what edibles they
could carry and trampling the rest I'm.
