Is, 900 striking miners of the copper
belt on Thursday created enough dis
turbance to result in the ordering out
of troops. BY night there we're 2,400
state soldiers, including cavalry and
artillery, in the mining fields of the
upper peninsula of Michigan.
While there were several outbreaks
in various parts of the mining coun-
try, the chief disturbance that set the
troops in motion was an assault on the
deputy sheriffs stationed at the mines
of the Calumet and Hecla company to
protect property. The strikers
stripped the officers of their stars
and beat several. None of the mines
have attempted to operate, but the
strikers seemed to object to the pres
ence of the deputies.

Il do not merely request the arrest

GIVES LIE To TALE
SENATOR LODGE MAKES DENIAL
OF STORY TOLD BY COL
ONEL MULHALL
FEARING IS NEAR TO END
Association Turns Over to Senate
Committee Almost 100000 Letters
Comprising Its Complete Core
spondence Files.

Washington, July 30.-When the
senate lobby investigating committee
resumed it's session on Monday Sena-
tor Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachu-
sets took the stand and gave the lie
direct to the confession made by
Martin NJ. Mu1hall, professed former
agent for the National Association of
Manufacturers.
Mulhall was taken off the stand
long enough to permit Senator Lodge
TO put into the record his emphatic
denials of Mulhall's testimony.
The Mulhall testimony started on
Its fourth week and the committee
now hopes to end it during this week,
although it probably will lap over into
the next.
The National Association of Manu-
facturers turned over to the senate
committee almost 100000 letters, com
prising its complete correspondence
files, subpoenaed in New York. 1t
took special express car to carry
the sixty file cases to Washington.
Officials of this organization say
they are ready to do anything the
senators may ask. although they re-
sent the way in which they so far
have been treated.
They charge that the entire matter
is an effort on the part of the Demo
Gratis to repay political debts to Sam
uel Gompers and the American Fed.
Grafton of Labor. whom they have
been fighting.
They cite Indignantly the fact that
the political work in which Mulhall
engaged was only small feature of
the labors of the Manufacturers asso-
citation
AN organization so vast and so i'm
portant to the industrial life of this
nation" said former President Kirby,
does not propose to be politically
chloroformed, nor Mulhalled by set
mp job. such as the present one-sided
Investigation has all the earmarks of
being
He wrote in the strain he used all
through his letters to j. P. Bird, the
general manager of the association
and other officials, of having men APP
pointed to committees, of preventing
Legislation and of generally having
much to do with the operations of
government in Washington.
Mulhali mentioned in several let
fers with assurance that he expected
10 have even greater success with the
Democratic house than he had boast
ed he had in the days of Republican
rule, but, questioned by the commit
tee said he had been too optimistic
in his prophecy.
Mulhall took up his relations with
Representative J. T. McDermott Of
Illinois and l. H. McMichael, one-time
chief page of the house and conf
dental secretary to the representa-
tive. He identified what he said was
a receipt for $500 given him by Nc
Michael for services in September
and October, 1911, and reiterated that
McDermott borrowed money from
him which he never paid back
All through the days letters Null
hall appeared in opposition to legis-
lation favoring labor. He swore that
there was labor lobby in Washing
ton then in which officials of the
American Federation of Labor were
conspicuous.
One of the last letters to go into
the record was dated October 25. 1911,
from Mulhall to General Manager Bird
Offering his resignation.
