back to this community SO far as
could be observed, this precaution
was unnecessary, as only applause
greeted the union men when they
arrived at Hancock.
The deputies will act as bodyguards
as long as the men are here. 1t was
understood that as soon as the grand
jury has excused the men, they will
leave for Washington to attend the
meeting Of the executive council Of
the American Federation of Labor
Speculation as to the reason OF
Charles H. Meyers sudden return to
the copper strike district was prac-
tically unanimous in connecting his
departure from Chicago with a secret
conference which Governor Ferris held
with some unidentified men early
last evening.
just who addressed the conference
or what was discussed was not re-
vealed, but the governor said it was
on legal affairs, and it has been
known that the chief executive of the
state was anxious to see a grand
jury investigation Of the Moyer-Tan-
ner deportation started. It was sur
missed, therefore, that the president
of the federation was to be called be-
fore the grand jury here Immediately
after luncheon today, and some OBJ
servers think that he will leave for
Chicago again on later train. Union
leaders generally said that the word
Of his coming was news to them.
Union Accepts Challenge
Acceptance Of what union labor re-
garded as a challenge marked the
close of the hearing which Governor
Woodbridge N. Ferris today gave to
representatives Of the mining com
panies involved in the copper strike.
A. L. Peterman, representative of
the Calumet and Hecla, called the
governors attention to discrepancies
between the companies and the
unions statistics on the strike situa-
ton. He pointed out that the figures
regarding the number Of men em-
ployed were at variance and added
that the companies were willing to-
submit to an actual count OF en-
ployes, and would throw open their
books as a source Of information, il
the union would do the same.
Claude B. Taylor, president Of the
Michigan state Federation Of Labor,
promptly said that the unions would
do the same thing.
Governor Ferris gave no Indication
as to whether any such procedure
would be adopted. It has been
known, however, that he has investi-
gators under James Cunningham
state commissioner of labor and pre-
sumably these men have already gone
into that phase of the situation. The
company men combatted several of
the assertions made by union repre-
sentatiyes yesterday.
Attorney Reese, chief counsel for
the Calumet and Hecla, answering
the point that officials Of the unions
were forced to call the strike by in
sistence Of the rank and file, said
that the constitution of the Western
Federation provided that any
strike proposition must first be con-
sidered by the legislative board Of the
organization before it is submitted to
a referendum vote He said that
the companies we're not hostile to
union labor. but that they would not
deal with a union which preached
class hatred. lae6Ef

Sacramento. Cal, December T.
Mrs. S. B. Hardy, wife of j. b.

Nevada, pleaded guilty in the Police
Court here Saturday to a charge OF
petty larceny-shop-lifting. Because
J. W. L~aughlin, superintendent OF

wish to prosecute, Police Judge Hen

Mrs. Hardy recently came to Sac

she told City Prosecutor l.. M. Shell

day afternoon, who took her to a To-

She was detected in the act of TAX

The purse is valued at S1.90.
Mrs. Hardy received a letter from
her husband this morning. He en-
closed money and inquired endear-
ingly after her health. She will re.
turn to Reno.
Superintendent Laughlin made

investigation he had come to the be,

that she took the purse in a spirit OF
play is true. No testimony was
heard in court.
Mrs. Hardy is young and pretty
She appeared fashionably dressed in
the Police Court. She showed by
her manner that she felt her arrest
keenly. She had been weeping be-
fore entering court.
