officials were not surprised over the de

Lowney said. This action was not the
result of our refusal to accept funds from
the Citizens alliance, following the
Christmas tragedy. The Michigan copper
companies We're determined to bring mat
ters to a crisis by New Years day. Pres
ident Meyer had offered, only few days
ago. to have President Wilson or the
governor of Michigan arbitrate the strike.
and the companies ignored his offer.
Many of the officers of the federation
left Calumet because we expected indict-
ments by the grand jury. James Nc
Naughton, vice president and general
manager of the Calumet and Hecla COM
pany. the principal company against
which the strike is directed, is forema n
of this grand jury, and we left to escape
arrest so that the strikers funds would
not be tied up in the form of bail to keep
us at liberty The money was need cd
for food, rather than bail.
Meyer will be back in Calumet un-
der government protection within a few
days. We feel that we are now assured
of federal investigation of the whole
strike, and that is all we ask"

had been called for Sunday. 1t is ex-
