FRISCO LAYS Off
400 TELEGRAPHERS
, Makes Move in Anticipation
of Operators Strike
Today

Springfield, Mo, December 2S.-In antici-
patton of the strike of 11e0 telegraphers
employed on its lines, which in all proba-
bility will be called tomorrow. the St
Louis and San Francisco railroad tonight
laid off indefinitely 400 telegraphers and
began to transform its telegraph lines
into telephone system for railroad COM
muncation. This action laid bare the
eompanys plans for resisting the strike,
10 the amazement of the telegraphers. Re
moval of all telegraph instruments from
the companys offices began at noon to-
day. and it is expected to be completed
before the strike can be decided.
Tomorrow telephone operators will re-
place the telegraphers. The threatened
strike will be forestalled by what praeti-
cslly amounts to a lockout.
According to E. y. Levy, general man.
ager of the road. every five miles of the
Frisco's wires will be guarded by man
day and night. At all points where it is
necessary to give orders to trains, he said,
q deputy United States marshal will be
on duty to protect the telephone opera
tor.
No strike breakers will be hired in the
event of the expected strike Mr.. Levy
said. Telephone operators will be re-
cruited from the main offices of the COM
pany. The only telegraph instruments
left on the lines will be one at each of
the IA division points and one at head
quarters for the use of the officials in
transmitting messages regarding the
strike.

Governor Ferris today received long
telegram from Sheriff Cruise at Calumet
According to that. official, his investiga-
ton so far has failed to show General
Manager McNaughton of the Calumet and
Hecla mine had any part in the ''depor-
tation" from Calumet of President Meyer
of the Western Federation of Miners. He
was not prepared to say, however who
were the actual partieipators in sending
the strike leader from Calumet.
There is no occasion for impatience in
the investigation of Meyers kidnapping,
said Governor Ferris tonight. 1.-THE
Houghton county grand jury will give ev-
cry one an impartial hearing. 1t will re-

Will Seek Immediate Action

Hancock Mich December 2S.-Immedi-
ate grand jury inquiry into the deporta-
ton of Charles III. Meyer, president of the
Western Federation of Miners, will be
sought by the federation.
o. N. Hilton of Denver, chief counsel
for the organization arrived today and
at once went into consultation with the
local leaders who have been gathering ev-
idence as to the identity of the men who
escorted the federation executive to a
Chicago bound train Friday night.
1.-The special grand jury which Judge
o Brien of the circuit court called some
weeks ago is, I understand. to reconvene
Tuesday" said Mr.. Hilton tonight. II
shall ask George Nichols, special prose-
cutor in charge of the strike investiga-
tions to present our evidence to the grand
jury men,
Mr.. Hilton said he came here at the
request of Mr.. Meyer, having left Chi
cago Immediately after visiting him there.
II am quite sure Mr.. Meyer will re-
turn to the copper country as soon as he
recovers." added the attorney.
The action of the men who deported
Meyer was indorsed by employees of the
Copper Range Constructed mines today.
Meetings of these men were held at Tri-
mountain, Baltic and Painesdale. to adopt
resolutions of sympathy with families be-
reaved by the Calumet disaster of Christ
mas eve. In addition to this. meetings
condemned the refusal of federation men
to accept relief offered by the citizens
committee.
Additional paragraphs OF the resolutions
declared the men were opposed to the re-
employment of strikers unless the latter
renounced their memberships In the
union.
AT Trimountain. the non-union workers
added a rider. indorsing the efforts of
citizens to rid Houghton county of out
side agitators."
Only one additional arrest was reported
among employees of the Tyomies, the
Finnish newspaper whose seditious utter
ances were made the subject of warrants
sworn out by Sheriff James Cruise yester-
| day. Some 20 Of the warrants were is
sued but only five have been served.
The charge is conspiracy to publish and
the actual publication of statements cal
culated to incite riotous assemblages.

Wound Not Fatal

Chicago, December 2S.-There is only
the most remote chance that the wound
in Charles II. Meyers left shoulder will
prove fatal, it was said tonight. Prob
ably within 10 days he will be back in
the copper country of Michigan directing
the strike as president Of the Western
Federation of Miners.
Optimistic news of his condition came
from Drs. G. V. Hiltoa and William M.
Harsha at st. Lukes hospital today when
the skiagraph showed that the bullet was
embedded in the muscles of the left
shoulder Within 4S hours the surgeons
will know whether 1t is best to remove
the bullet. Unless blood poisoning de-
velops it is probable the bullet swill be
allowed to stay where it is unless the
proposed investigation of the shooting at
Hancock, Mich, demands that the caliber
oF the bullet be ascertained in order to
trace the man who fired the shot.
The patient was in cheerful frame of
nina today, but the physicians insisted he
see only those visitors whose business
Meyer regarded as urgent.

suddenly of heart failure at the Reedy
residence, 1S41 Bessemer boulevard, on

o'clock from a lingering Illness. It is
thought, however that the sudden
death of his wife had the effect OF
shortening the life of the deceased.
The Reedys are country folk on the
outskirts of Bessemer, the late Mr..
Reedy being a retired farmer and well
known in that locality He had been
in i'll health for several months but
was never thought to be in immedia te
danger. On last Friday morning his
wife. who was his nurse and companion
in his days of illness. dropped dead
of heart failure.
The sudden shock of his pife's death
was too much for the weakened con-
dition of the aged farmer and he
failed rapidly, the end coming about 3
o'clock last night, +

procession had reached the cemetery
gates, two miles away.
All but half dozen bodies were placed
in common graves dug yesterday by the
members of the union. The ground be-
longs to the federation, and 1t was stated
that monument would be erected there
the formal dedication to take place Q
year hence.
The cemetery is in two sections. One Is
consecrated to the dead of the Roman
Catholic faith, the other to those belong
ing to Protestant denominations. In the
former three trenches had been excavated
and in these % bodies were laid.
Bodies Laid to Rest
On the Protestant side of the burial
place, two large graves received 2s
bodies. The other six were laid in fam
lily plots. Only brief addresses were de-
livered in the cemetery Eugene A. Nc
Nally, a local attorney, euogized the
dead in English. and George Strezich OF
St Louis, Frank Aaltonen of Negaunee
and other federation leaders, delivered
addresses in Austrian, Finnish and Croa-
tian.
MeNally made only passing reference
to the deportation of President c. II.
Meyer of the federation, predicting that
menent, would result in the development
oc leadership as effective as his All the
SPEAKERS termed the victims of the Christ
mas Eve catastrophe martyrs to tho
cause of unonism." They argued that
had the mine managers not refused to
recognize the union the industrial warfare
would have been settled months ago. and
there would have been no need for the
celebration in Italian hall.
Nine of those who were killed have not
been buried. Fathers and husbands who
left the copper country to seek work in
Arizona and Montana have not yet ar
rived in Calumet, but 1t is expected that
Tuesday will see the last of the funerals.
Foui were held yesterday. The coroner g
inquest into the circumstances OF the
tragedy is to convene tomorrow.
According to statements Of Investigators
for county officials witnesses will be
produced to show that the cry of fire,
which started the panic, came from near
the center of the hall instead of from
the doorway, as the first accounts had it.
Search for the man who shouted the
first false alarm has thus far been un-
successful. 1t was intimated, however.
that clews to his identity were being
worked out and that an arrest is some
thing more than remote possibility.
