Indignant Protests From Labor Unions All Over the Country
Climax of the Celebrated Contempt
Case.

Whether President Roosevelt will take any action,
as he has been urged to do in kilograms received from
different labor organizations throughout the country in
connection with Judge WgtS decision, has not yet been
decided it was stated at the White house. 1t was ex
planned that the president had not read the decision and
therefore cannot say he will take any action. There
was an ntmation however, that some action might be
taken if the president should be convinced that the
tence is unjust
The labor organizations urge the president to prevent
the incarceration of the labor leaders, The Illinois United
Mine Workers sent this telegram:
I'm the name of rs 600 mine workers in Illinois we
desire to protest against the recent decision committing
to penal Servtude those great CononerS and represent
guilty of breach of law, but law that denies the use
of free press and full speech is breach of the funda
mental principles CT our country. Such decisions only
tend to create enmy ard class hatred We respectfully
solicit your influence to prevent the incarceration of these
men,"

Den OF THIEVES
IN PITTSBURG
City Hall Headquarters of a
Gang Ranking With the
Frisco Robbers.

Pittsburg Dec. 23.-As was minated
yesterday, the municipal corruption Of
Pittsburg has developed into one of the
most gigantic sensational scandals in the
history of city governments in America
The seven councilmen and two bankers
arrested here Monday night for conspir-
acy and bribery We're given hearing to-
the introductions of startling testimony
which implicated many councilmen at
present unknown, all the defendants were
held for court today.
According to the testimony, it was an
easy thing to bride a majority of the
council body of Pittsburg by the payment
of sums ranging from 800 to s.. The
charges were made that William Bran and
John Klein, councilmen, had each accept
ed $500 for the passage of an ordinance.
1t was also testified that sixty council
men had divided $4,000 graft money re-
Gently in connection with the filtration
plant.
With the exception of Councilmen Klein
and WATSON all the defendants have been
released on bail amounting in each case
from $4,000 to $4,000.
Other arrests are likely to be made
shortly. said District Attorney Blake!y to-
night Mr. BIakely took charge of the
cases against the accused councilmen and
bankers Immediately after the close OF the
preliminary hearing before Police Magis-
trate +. J. Brady.
Every effort will be made by this Of
flee to finish the work started by the
Voters league said Mr.. Blakely- THE
Voters league will probably continue in
connected with the scandal but independ-
eRt of such action, the district attorneys
office will cause any arrests which the
evidence we secure juStifies.

sci Samuel T. knight. who is said TO have
been retained by the Japanese consul in
this city.
The case has occupied the attention Of
Judge Carroll Cooks court for about three
weeks past. and has been followed with
unusual interest because OF its fnterna-
tionai connections.
Stevens was en- route to Washington n

attacked at the Fairmont hotel by several
Koreans who assaulted him with chairs

life SENTENCE
FOR DYNAMITER
Peter Claudianes, Tool of the
San Francisco Gang, Reaps
His Reward.

Oakland, Cal, Dec. 23-Peter Claudianes,
the Greek. charged with dynamiting the
home in this city of former Supervisor
James L. Gallagher, the star witness for
the prosecution in the San Francisco brib-
ery-graft cases, was found guilty by a
jury today and sentenced to life impriSon-
ment- The jury was out only eight min
utes and verdict was reached upon the
first ballot.
Claudianes waived time and Judge
Waste Immediately sentenced him for life
to San Quentin.
The trial of Claudianes was one of the
many qualifications of the San Francisco
graft cases in which the testimony of
ex-SuperyisOr Gallagher is the connecting
link between Abraham Ruef. the former
political boss, for whom Gallagher con-
feSsed having acted as agent, and the
board of supervisors.
Gallaghers home was blown up last
spring the former supervisor, his wife
and several friends in the house at the
time narrowly escaped with their lives
1t was the theory of the prosecution in the
San Francisco bribery graft cases that
the attempt was made to put Gallagher
out OF the way in order that he could not
testify against Ruef and other defendants.
+ suspicion was directed to Claudianes
through a letter that came into possession
of District Attorney Langdon of San
Francisco. written by Peter to his brother
John, from which it appeared that he had
been told there would be 81 900 in it, to
blow up Gallagher. The writer complained
that they hadn't come through"
Peter Claudianes was captured in Chi
cago. His brother. John. was arrested
namiting was instigated by Felix Paude-
varis. another Greek, whom the police
have never been able to find The trial
OF John Claudianes will follow.

Brown, of Scipio. Utah
Two years ago Brown found a big gap
in the life of chasing steers on one of the

heart The one-sidedness of his hitherto
happy life became impressed on him. His
business chained him to the ranch.
he advertised in a Boston paper asking
for correspondence from some eastern girl
not afraid of the loneliness of Utah He
received several answers but the one that
attracted him most was from Miss Els
of Waltham Correspondence began and
photos were exchanged. Last Wednesday
he arrived in Boston and was met by Miss
Els. The next cay Miss ELS journeyed

MILD HAMMERED
AND CHASTENED
Presidents Reply to the Reso-
luton of Congress Will Show
Humble Spirit.

Washington, Dec. 2s-Tlse indications are
that persons who expect President Roose-
Welt to say something of personal nature
in his message to congress replying to the
inquiry as to the basis for that portion of
his message with secret service will be
disappointed.
1t is said he will confine himself prin-
cipally to an effort to sustain the declara-
ton in his annual message that the ac-
ton of congress in limiting the activities
of the secret service agents has resulted
in increased crime.
Data will be produced to show that
criminals and confidence men. have been
quick to take advantage of the cessation
of the work of the secret service men,
but it is not believed that there will be
any reflection upon the character of in
dividuals that will in the slightest degree
embarraSs any member of the house or
the senate.
To meet any objection that the secret
service is limited by statute to the detec-
ton of counterfeiters, revenue and Gus
toms frauds. and at the same time to pre-
serve the general usefulness of that in
stitution, the president probably will rec
ommend a change in the organic law so as
to provide for the merging of the secret
service. the land office inspectors, post
office inspectors and all of the other minor
governmental inspection service into one
general bureau of criminOlOgy in the in
terest of economy and good administra-
ton
