FEAR BLOWING UP OF CRY
PLANTS IN MINERS AFFAIR
Butte, Mont, Sept. 1.-The receipt
during the night of nanymous threats
to dynamite the city water and light
ing plants caused the authorities to
post heavy armed guards about both
places today.
The situation growing out of the
torubles in the metal miners union in
the Butte district was quiet but tense
today. State militiamen, modified by
order of Governor Stewart, have not
been sent here and the new miners
union officers declare they have in
duced the state executive to change
his mind.
Three hundred business men today
organized a protective association to
guard their homes and stores in case
of rioting. Muckie Mcdonald, Dresi-
dent of the new union, offered to
deputize $50 miners to guard the city,
but the sheriff refused the offer.
The Original and Gagnon mines
shut down today when a committee
from the new union demanded that
the miners show the buttons of the
new union instead of the cards of
the Western Federation of Miners.
This leaves only four mines working.
The county courthouse is under
heavy guard, the county records hay
ing been locked in the vaults.
