1t has been intimated that the miners will
strike a serious blow to the stability of
their own organization by declaring "a
strike. and this intimaton is taken to mean
that both sides are p: eparing to fight the
matter to finish.
Mine Machinists Chilled Out.
BUTTE, Mont, August 1.-The refusal
Of the mine owners of this city to grant
an'tincrease~ of so cents a day to the ma
chinists employed at the mines was fol-
lowed by the calling out OF the members of
the Machinists Union at midnight last
night. Should the strike be OF any great
duration 1t will result in shutting down of
Machinists Union. The present wage scale
is $3.50 a day.

WESTERN SHIPPERS AROUSED.
Will Name Committee to Represent
Them Before I. G, Commission.

CHICAGO. August 1.-Western shippers
may form permanent organization to rep
resent them before the interstate commerce
commission. With this end in view repre-
sentatives of many important commercial
and traffic associations west of the Great
Lakes will meet here tomorrow.
1t is likely that all the organizations
which care to join in the movement will
unite in appointing an executive committee,
the duty of which will be to stand between
the shippers and the interstate commerce
commission.
Those back Of the plan explain that when
ever traffic questions are considered by the
commission the railroads always are well
represented. On the other hand the ship
pers' side Of the case remains unpresented
or depends upon disjointed efforts of some
one who may choose to attend.

DATE IS CHANGED
Eldorado Excursion and Picnic
Thursday, Sept. 70

The excursion to Eidorado Springs
for Tribune correspondents has been
postponed until Thursday. Sept. 10,
because it was impossible to arrange
for special train for any date
earlier than that. While this
might be little late to 60 far into
the mountains it is but little later
than the excursion for the cores
pondents last year when 1t was gen.
orally conceded that the best time
of the year had been struck.
The Tribune management hopes
that this change in date will cause
no Inconvenience to any OF the cor
respondents and all will be officially
notified by letter of the change.

Pretty Show Windows.

Greeley is accustomed to see pretty
show windows in the stores, but
few have been fixed up this week
for Harvest Festival that are of
more than passing interest. One Of
the best ever seen here is the
Condor window. This represents
the goddess Of the harvest with a
huge ''horn Of plenty" pouring out
the bounties of the soil. AS the
festival today is to celebrate the
Harvest Home the window Is un-
usually appropriate.
Another window with something
the same idea is that Of the Rey
nolds drug store where there is a
splendid exhibit of Grand Valley
fruit, brought here by the delegation
from Grand Junction attending the
commercial mems convention.
The ,McCutcheon' Hardware COM
pany has perhaps the most novel
window Of all, representing camp
ing scene In the mountains.
Noah's Ark also has good win
dow, though simple in design. 1t
represents a wheat field and an al.
falfa field with cattle grazing knee
deep.
Another novel window is in the
Robie Hardware store. This is a
landscape with big river running
down the center and a great suspen-
sion bridge over the river. The
whole thing is made Of nails Of
various sizes.

 Prof. c. L. Mcartha was master of ceremonies and announced the opening of the exercises by the singing of America by the school after which an invocation was made by Rev. O. Welsh of the Methodist Church. The Gov ernors proclamation concerning the celebration of the day was read by L. r. Shaw, and Lees favorite hymn. How Firm a Foundation,' was sung by the assemblage.
 Flight boys from the grades gave tributes from various authors upon the life and character of Lee, each as he left the stage placing flowers of gar lands about tho pedestal and bust of bronze. which occupied central posi- ton on the stage.

MORE WALSH INDICTMENTS.
Federal Court is After Former Chic,
 20 RankeF

BO baDAfts
 Chicago, Jan. :S.--!ohn R Walsh, President of the Chicago National Bank, which was closed by the Cover nor December 16, 1905, was today for mally Npdicted by the Federal grand jury on the charge of misapplying bank funds.
 The indictment which contains 1s2 counts is based upon twenty-two trans actions in each memorandum notes in which the government officials de- clare are fraudulent; upon thirteen sales of bonds to the bank, 1t fbeing claimed that these bonds were unmar ketable and upon fifty-seven payments of the money derived from these trans actions. The money, 1t Is charged in the indictment, was placed by Walsh to the credit of his personal account and used by him in aiding outside en- terpises.
 A number of counts charge tkat mon ey was frequently expended by Mir Walsh for hiG personal benefit and not for that of the railroads This varia- tion in the form of accusation is in- tended to meet the state of facts show ing that Walsh was owner of the en- terprises which 1t Is claimed he main tained with funds of the bank.
 Mir Walsh was arrested March 2, 1906, for alleged violation of the fed. erai banking laws and was under bond of S50.000 As soon as the indictment was returned he appeared in the fed eral court and gave new bond for simi- lar amount He will plead or file de- murrers to the indictments on or be- fore February 6.
 MT. Walsh's attorneys assert that they expect Ho have little difficulty in clearing him.
