Taft Says Pinchot is O. K.

SALT LAKE, Sept. 25.-President
Taft spent the day in comparative
quiet here enjoying the rest from
railroad travel which the day in this
city afforded. The days program be-
gan with breakfast with two hundred
prominent citizens at the Commercial
club.
Breakfast was followed by an
organ recital in the Mormon Taber-
nacle, the recital being arranged
especially in honor Of the president
who is making his first visit to Salt
Lake and saw for the first time the
edifice which was built without noise
of saw or hammer.
The remarkable acoustic properties
of the tabernacle, it's egg shaped roof
with no rafters to interfere with the
perfect transmission of sound waves
to the farthest corner of the balcony,
making it possible for the dropping
of pin at pulpit to be heard through
out the building, were marveled at

interest in the lake and contrary
to general belief that the water is
drying up rapidly, was told that the
lake at present is 8 feet higher than
1t was SO years ago.
From Saltair the president drove
to the Country club where he spent
the afternoon.
Tonight the president was the
guest of honor at a brilliant dinner
at the Alta club and later held a
public reception attended by thous-
ands.
He leaves Salt Lake tomorrow at

ers and submarines assigned to
escort the Half Moon and Clermont
met in the Kill Kon Kull between
Staten Island and Jersey shore.
With the escort trailing to the rear
the Half Moon and Clermont cruised
along the Brooklyn shore in sight OF
the spectators. Meanwhile the rest
of the parade was assembling and
when the Half Moon and Clermont
finished their round of the upper bay
and sailed into the mouth of the Hud-
son, they fell into line.
The assembling of the 500 boats
that followed the two little crafts up
the river occupied the whole morn
ing and not until 1 O'Clock was the
mass Strengthened out into something
like procession formation.
The boats moved UP the Hudson in
double line at speed of eight miles
an hour, in a column nearly Is
miles long, watched by not less than
100000 people in holiday attire.

NEW YORK, Sept. 25.-The river

UGLY MESS
AT BUT Il
Miners Rescued
From Mob BY
Jhow of Force

BUTTE, Mont, Sept. 25.-After
an evening of gun play and violence,
during which twenty-eight miners
who refused to quit work at the
Canon Mine had to be protected by
the police, Butte awoke today to a
possible shut down of the local
mines and shelters which would af-
feet $4,000 men throughout the
state The trouble arises from a
jurisdictional dispute between the
Western Federation of Miners and
seeding engineers.
Noon today was set for a confer
ence between a committee of the
miners union and mine officials in
the hope that the latter would re-
fuse to employ the seeding en-
gineers. The conference adjourned
until tomorrow without result.
The only mines working today are
the Mountain Consolidated, Belmont
and Never Sweat of the Anaconda
company, the Silver Bow of the
Butte &Boston and the West Colusa
of the Boston & Montana. All the
mines of the Red Metals company.
North Butte company, .Pittsburg &
Montana, Davis DAILY of w. A. Clark
and the remaining mines of the
Amalgamated Copper company are
closed. The pumps are being operat-
ed as usual.
The situation is new, the differ
ences being confined to the unions.
No strike or walkout has been order
ed for the question of hours, wages
or rules is not involved and the en-
ployers have no part whatever in
the controversy.
1t develops that twenty-eight of
the Canon miners refused to carry
out the order of the miners union
to quit work They were rescued
from a mob by fifteen police officers
under command of Captain Thomas
Norton and Sheriff John O'Rouke,
with a dozen deputies. The officers
with drawn revolvers, surrounded the
Canon shaft and cleared way
through the mob to the miners hall,
where a committee from the miners
union interviewed the men.
What transpired is not known, as
the officers, with guns ready for ac-
ton, would permit no one to enter
the buildings. In few minutes
Acting President Robert Crane of
the miners union appeared in a
window and, addressing those in the
street below, advised the miners to
disperse.
