Death of Capitol
Clerk a Mystery

NEW YORK. Jan &C, L. Swords,
clerk of the folding room in the House
of Representatives at Washington,
was found dead at midnight in a
squalid room at a Seventh avenue
lodging house, under conditions which
led the police to start an investiga-
ton today.
Swords, "a middle-aged man, dressed
in good clothess, was found by an
employee of the house sitting up
right in chair. dead.
Official papers and a ring were
means Of Identification. A physician
reported death as probably due to
heart failure" but this was not sat
isfaetory to the police, who could not
understand how a man of Swords's
type came to be in such a place.
1t is probable an autopsy will be
ordered,

STATE WILL BEAR THE
EXPENSE OF THE TROOPS

The state viii stand the expense of
the Michigan National guard ordered
ont by Governor Ferris to do strike
duty in the copper country. Up TO two
years ago the county TO which soldiers
were called had to bear the expense.
This was changed by the legislature
of 1911. when Senator w. a. Roscu-
kranS. of Shiawasscc county succeeded
in getting such bill through. Shia-
wassee county stood 40 the time to pay
several thousand dollars for the sol
diers called To Durand during the
Grand Trunk strike
The Shiawassee-I Ingham senator ar
gued that the county should not be
forced to pay for the troops to pro-
tect an interstate corporation He de
clared that the people of the county
were opposed To the calling Of the
troops and that they did duty for the
irand Trunk and not for the county.
II was at one time stated that the
Grand Trunk would pay for the troops
but this proved to be untrue.
To relieve Shiawassee county of the
burden, il was necessary TO pass two
bills one a general law repeating the
old statute, and another covering the
Shiawassee case
The bill was strongly opposed by la
bor unions IN the state. and al one
time certain national guard officials
also showed some opposition.

POSITION OF THE MINING COMPANIES IS
DETAILED IN STATEMENT TO THE PRESS

A statement of the position of the
mining corporations was given to the
press last evening Summarized IL
follows:
The strike is costing the companies
and miners $4,000 a day, of which
$4,000 comprises wages.
THE present labor disturbance is
countenanced by about 10 per cent of
the employees of the various operating
companies, certainly not over 20 pee
cent aud probably less than that per-
centagc of the Calumet & Hecla or
subsidiaries. 1t is being made at "a
time when thc mines are paying the
highest wages in the history of cop
per mining in this district. The strike
had its origin among the trammers and
most of the active strikers are of that
class of labor. Trammers employed
on the regular company account of
the Calumet & Hecla are receiving
higher wages than ever before. The
lowest average company account tram
mer is paid $3.50 The highest, on the
amygdaloid. receives s3.16, which has
been paid for this labor since the first
Cf the present year.
The average wage paid to miners
is $3.50. Many of the miners average
considerably above this amount. The

miners who have been working for the
