clare They Will Not Force

TRINIDAD. Col, May s.-Thls was
the day set by the leaders of the
striking coal miners for their prom
ised presentation Of the disarmament
proposal TO their men. At two mass
meetings-one at the San Rafael coll

leaders had agreed to urge the miners
to deliver up their guns to tho officers

commanding the Federal forces In the
Colorado coal strike district.
The strike leaders. however. made
II emphatic that they claimed no au-
thority to compel tho men to give
up their arms. 1t Is the theory of
the union that the rifles and revoivers
belong to the men who carry them,
and that the organization has no
power by which II can force them TO
give them to the United States army
Officers or to anybody else.
The third squadron Of the Eleventh
Cavalry. held far behind its schedule
by washouts, was expected to arrive
to-day. With the entire regiment on
the ground in addition to the other
forces In the strike district. Col. Lock-
EFT will make final distribution Of his
troops. The duration OF the Federal
occupation Of the coal fields is a
matter Of speculation only. The cav
alrymen were sent into Colorado with
the understanding that the Iepisla =
ture would make speedy preparation
for assuming control Of the situation
by the State.

cial session OF the Colorado I,egisia-
ture. now being held. cannot pass \

Soon after the theaters opened a

and purchased a ticket for matinee
performance. The cowboy was coat

at the main door the officer there told
him that it was against the rules to

parquet. He was referred to the box
office. At the latter place he ex.
planned his predicament and said he
supposed he would have to cash his
ticket and go elsewhere. The mana

began an inquiry.
Where is your coat?" asked the
manager.

the cowboy.
