BUSINESS PARALYZED
Army of Workers Went on
Strike But We're Subdued
With Machine Guns.

San Francisco, March 12-Machine
guns, operated by the government
forces of Chile in great conflict with
strikers at the nitrate beds and in the
city of Iquique, laid low $500 men,
most of these being killed, according
to advices received yesterday by the
Norwegian steamer Christian Bors,
arriving direct from Chile.
Business at Iquique was paralyzed
when the great army of workers went
on strike. One fracas followed an
other until soldiers and strikers met
in the streets Of Iquique and on the
outskirts and openly defied each other.
Being ordered to drive the army of
men away and disperse them, the SOL
diers on January 1 opened fire while
they massed and literally moved
down the men. They had little op-
portunity to fight back, even though
they had been armed, the assault upon
them was so sudden.
A week later, as though by COM
mon agreement the strikers went
back to work without the expected
advance in wages. 1t was reported
that the mine owners will voluntarily
increase the pay of their employees.

TROUBLE IN NAUGATUCK.
Because Some Men Were Employed
To Work Overtime.

Angry because they had been in
definitely laid off while some of their
fellow employees were working nights,
a number of men, until recently en-
ployed by the Naugatuck Maleable
Iron Works, appeared at the factory
last evening and with couple Of
revolvers tried to persuade the men
working to quit. They put the pistols
through the windows and in threaten
ing tones declared there would be
trouble If the men continued TO work
nights.
AS result of the incident last
evening, some Of the Nauga:uck pa
trolmen were stationed at the fectory
gate this noon, as it was feared there
would be demonstration. But
there was no sign of trouble to-day.
The factory has been affected by
the lack of work. as all other fac
tories, and has laid off considerable
of its help.
A rush order came In recently
which compelled the present employees
to work overtime in order TO fulfill it
and this is why the men laid Off
though they had a grievance.

COUNT BONI WILLING
So Nine Could Sailed With Her
Children To-day Under The
Name of Miller.

Paris, March 12.-It became known
to-day that Nine Anna Gould who
sailed yesterday for New York on the
steamer Adriatic booked her passage
on this vessel under the name oil
Miller. She had originally takeE
passage for herself and her children
on the Kronprinz Wilhelm, bur
changed her plans at the last mo-
ment. Although she had the written
consent of her former husband
Count Boni de Castellane to take the
children out of France, she adopted
the ruse of changing steamers and
using an assumed name in case toe
count should attempt at the last mo-
ment to prevent the children's de-
parture. Count Boni had been under
the impression that Nine Gould and
the children were ON board the
Kronprinz Wilhelm and had tele.
graphed his greetings to the childrcc
in care Of that steamer.
Count Boni de Castellane has is.
sued letter characterizing as a
piece of buffonery the suit brought by
Prince Helie de Sagan, his cousin, ac.
cusing him of forging certain letters
signed with Sagan's name and re.
fiecting upon Nine Gould. He says
that the author of the letters is no;
known to him but he was the first one
to call the prince to account for them
before the public prosecutor.

was as follows
Mr. Lilley called the attention of
the committee to the fact that his
charges do not embrace the accusa-
tions or inference that any member
of congress had been actually bribed
or knowingly had participated in or
been influenced by wrongful methods

secure legislation. His purpose. he
said, was to set on foot and assist
the carrying out OF an investigation

methods had been used by the Elec-

The Democratic candidate for gov

all his campaign speeches that he
der to assist in reducing state eX-
penses. But it is known of Mr.. He
mans that he was a member of the
legislature through two full terms;
that he had important part in Great
ing the state expenditures and could
have taken part in some effort to
keep expenses down had he so de-
sired; but he did not. During the
time he was drawing pay as a legis-
lator he was voting for appropriation
bills, voting for state expenditures
in all directions, just such as now
he is criticising. His record as a
member of the legislature does not
contain a single act or a single word
that would indicate any anxiety on
his part to reduce state expenditures
or to make any changes in the move
ment of state affairs such as would
give force to single argument or
plea in his behalf. If the voters of
Michigan decide the coming election
on the basis of the progress of their
state in all directions, ON the question
of what they have received for every
dollar expended, on the matter Of
comparative increase of state income
and state outgo-if these questions
are influential in determining the de-
cision of the voters of Michigan at
the coming election, Mr.. Hemans and

cisms If they so please after the third
