The evening times. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1906-1914, 1913-12-27

Calumet, Dec. 27.-The feeling be-
tween the striking miners and Citizens
Alliance. embittered by the Christmas
disaster, reached a breaking point
over the deportation of Meyer.
At the miners headquarters 1t was
charged that Meyer was kidnapped
because of the statement accredited to
him regarding the panic. Citizens
conducted him out of the state be-
cause he wouldn't retract the asser-
tion that he believed the men who
started the panic by crying Gre"
were alliance members and because
Of his advice TO bereaNed families
not to accept aid from the alliance.
The absence of word from Moyer
caused some hesitation in the an
nouncement of plans for the further
conduct Of the strike and the burial
of victims. but it was expected that
arrangements for the funeral would
he completed today. There is little
indication that relief from the COM
mittee Of citizens will be moro accept
able to the victims of the disaster
than it was yesterday.
Expect Investigation.
Union officials declared that Mover
was shot in the shoulder and head
before he was deported. Union off,
cials believe it will result in a con-
gressional investigation. which the
federation has been urging.
