TO
AID kARLUK

Seattle. Wn., July 9.-The reve-
nue. cutter Bear, with Captain Rob-
ert A. Bartlett late of the Stefanaon
expedition ship Karluk will sail from
Nome, according to advices received
today, probably within week, for
Wrangel Island, Off The coast Of Alas
ka, to take off eighteen white men
and four Eskimos, one of them wo-
man, who have been on the island
since March 10, when they arrived
from the eceae Of the wreck of the
Karluck.
The KarlalsSa crushed by-therfee
January 10. north of Herald Island.
The men took all the provisions off
the ship and placed them on the ice,
also everything else OF value on the
boat. which sank the next day. Her
aid Island was in sight to the south,
and two parties set out from Iceland
but were unable to land. A descrip-
tion of their experiences sent by
Bartlett was taken to mean that the
parties did not afterward rejoin their
comrades. This, however, Bartlett
said yesterday was an error. The
whole party made their way to
Wrangell Island. Then Bartlett and
an Eskimo and a team OF dogs set
out over the ice for Northcape. ST.
IBERIA. and crossed the Siberian pc
ninsula to Bering Sea. finally arriv-
ing at Nome. About the same time a
party OF men went back over the Ice
to get supplies left at the scene of
the wreck.
1t is to be supposed that they re-
turned safely, as the dog sled Jour
ney was neither long nor dangerous.
The white men now on Wrangel
Island are:
Henry Beuchata, Anthropologist;
Bjarne Mamen. assistant topograph-
er; DR.. Allister Forbes-Mackay,
surgeon: George S. Malloch. geolo-
gist: William Laird Mckinley. mag
netician: James Murray, oceanog-
rapher; Alexander Anderson, first
mate; John Munroe, first engineer;
Charles Barter. second mate; Robert
Williamson. second engineer; F. w.
Maurer. fireman; George Brady.
fireman: John Brady Thomas Nor
ris. H. King, A. Williams, seamen;
Robert Templeton, stewart; Ernest
Chase. cabin boy.
So far as known none of the men
suffered any serious mishaD. They
have an abundance OF food and cloth
ing and have excellent dog teams.
With the return of the wild fowl in
spring they were able to change
from pelican to roast duck.
The length of time required for
the Bears voyage to Wrangel Island
depends on the condition OF the sea.
The island Is said to be difficult to
land upon. owing to the Ice.

Raffale Saraceno, striker, is in
the county jail charged with statu-
tory crime and with robbery and his
arrest promises to lead to disclosures
of n scandal the most sensational OF
any that have yet occurred at the
Ludlow tent coiony-which is saying
a good deal.
AS result of the arrest also,
some say that Fireworks Quinn,
leader of the strikers at Ludlow, will
be involved. and already the inner
circle OF the miners union here is
disturbed. Saraceno was brought to
the county Jail this morning by R.
G. Bolton, local strike leader, who
was named special constable at the
request of union leaders and the dis
trict attorney.
Friends of Saraceno say that he

General Funston today made trip

Colonel Izunza, commander of the

General Funston also explained

yesterday called the attention OF the
American authorities to this Incl
dent, saying he regretted its occur

to bring about an unnecessary clash
and loss of lie.
When the train bearing General
Funston reached the gap the federal
commander and all aide came
through the AmericaD lines and the
conference was held on board the

Severely rebuking the United Mine
Workers officials and leaders for
their lawlessness. disregard Of the
laws of the state and their wanton
and unprovoked acts of violence,
half a dozen of the leading clergy
men, educators and public men Of
Colorado have forwarded letter to
W. B. Wilson, Secretary Of Labor,
asking that cabinet official to use his
best efforts to bring about an END to
the industrial trouble in Colorado.
The strike leaders are charged with
bad faith and with encouraging re-
volt and msurrection. The authors
of the letter are Dean H. Martyr
Hart. Episcopal rector of Denver;
Bishop Olmstead of the Episcopal
Diocese of Colorado; H., A. Howe,
Dean of Denver University; W. F..

Lawlessness off Strike Leaders Shown
incLetter to Secretary Wilson From

working man should deplore violence
as standing In the way OF an honor
able settlement. aH7t
A. third reason why the strike
should be called off. is the bad faith
of those in charge Of it. When 1t be-
came necessary to cafl out the troops.
1t was demanded that both strikers
and mine guards should be disarmed.
The guards did SO in good faith and
practically all of them left the coun-
try. A like good faith does not ap-
pear to have been shown by the
strikers. They gave W compare
lively few worthless arms but hid the
good ones. Then when almost all of
the State troops had been withdrawn,
they brought their rifles out of the
hiding places. And on more than
one occasion they showed their utter
want of ordinary morality by dis
playing a white flag and then at
tacking the men who recognized and
trusted this Worldwide symbol OF
armistice. Men who act in bad faith
not only fail az individuals to hold
the confidence of their fellow citi-
zens. but they destroy respect for the
organization with which they are
connected and in whose name they
are acting. This is the case with
the non-com'batant population of
Colorado, who are now bitterly op-
posed to these methods.
A further reason why the strike
should be called off is the attitude
Its leaders have assumed towards the
State. Those who openly call men to
arms against the State are clearly
liable to the penalties Of treason.
What they did yesterday in Colorado,
they are ready to do against Illinois
tomorrow, and against the United
States the day after. As a public Of
ficer, you can In no way better serve

believe, the sentiments OF large ma
jOrity of our fellow citizens, we ap-
peal to you to put forth all of the
great influence that Is centered in
you, to cause the strike in the Colo
RADIO coal fields to be called off.
In making request that affects so
many men, reasons should be pre-
sented. We submit in the first
place that the success OF the strike
was very doubtful from the begin
ming. Less than one-quarter of the
miners belonged to the Union. Those
who did not were so far contented
with conditions that they could not
be expected to join in the strike: at
least the result proves that to be the
case. In reality there has been no
general strike, because many men. In
the neighborhood of ten thousand.
have been regularly employed all
through the times of disturbance.
and the state has been continuously
supplied with near Its normal duan-
tity of coal.
1t should be called off because OF
the many acts of violence that have
accompanied it. You yourself have
doubtless observed that nothing
more quickly dissipates the sympathy
of the public than unprovoked v1o-
lence. An imperfect account shows
about seventy-siX violent deaths,
most OF them unprovoked' murders,
in connection with this strike. To
these are to be added countless cases
of assault and of wanton destruction
of property. In other strikes the
leaders have been able more or less
successfully. to disclaim the respon-
sibility of themselves and of the un-
ion for the acts OF violence. Here
there appears to be no thought that
,uch deeds are even matters for apol-
ogy. Such an attitude reflects upon
the Union. and any true friend OF the

night OF General iEufamio Zapata,
brother OF General Eimi1iano Zapata,
The most powerful revolutionary
leader in southern Mexico. General
Zapata was reported as on his way

Carranza demanding assurances That
the large land tracts in 'Morelos ana
Guerrero would be divided among
the soldiers of Zapata's army at the
close of the revolution.
Men well informed on the subject
said Zapata has determined that Car
