ARREST PAIR OF CLERGYMEN
Ministers Tried to See a Navy Yard
on Passes Made Out to Others
and Got Into Trouble.

Two clergymen received rather Sc
we're lesson on the dangers Of trying to
see the CharlestOwn navy yard on
passes not intended for their use, the
Boston Transcript states. They were
arrested, taken to the marine barracks
and detained" pending Identification
by friends.
The clergymen obtained passes
which were made out In the names of
two of their friends, and which were
supposed to be nontransferable, like
all passes issued at the yard. The WIS.,
itors succeeded in gaining admittance
and got as far as the deck on one Of
the battleships, which they were spe-
cially interested in viewing. AS soon
as they stepped on the deck they were
challenged by the guard, who asked to
see their passes and who obtained
their names. When he had looked over
the passes the guard called attention
to the difference in the names given
and those on the cards. On being
questioned further the clergymen had
to admit that the passes had not been
made out for them, but had been bor-
rOwed.
They were promptly marched to the
barracks, under order from Comman.
der r. d. Hasbrouck, captain of the
yard, and held for two hours until their
friends arrived and identified them. A.
ter a severe lecture the clergymen were
permitted to leave.

Globe Ariz.s Aug. "a force OF

reach the scene OF the Apache upris-
ing, fifty miles northwest in the Sierra
Anchas mountains, where nine white
men, employees OF the asbestos mines
in that region, were reported early
today to be surrounded in a dug out
by q mob Of 100 striking Indian and
Mexican miners, while a forest fire
set by the Indians were sweeping the
mountains. p.
m The men in the dug-out were said
to be suppliedEwith only arfew rounds
of ammunition and a. small quantity
of provisions and 1t was feared that
they would. not be able to Withstand
the combined assault OF the warriors
and the forest fires: :
Because7of the lack of cornmunica-
stions, details OF the uprising r I'M
known, but reports indicated that two
organizers Of the Industrial Workers

among the men for the last week and
have i~nstigated the strike which led
to the revolt.
Telephone lines leading towards the
asbestos mines from Globe are out of
commission today. The sheriff's Of
ficers believe the wires have been cut
by the Indians.
The striking Indians r reported to
have been reinforced by braves from

SEIZE MINES
DURING WAR AS
DEFENSE PLAN
Proposal Will be Considered
at Conference Of 16. State
Governors.

Chicago, Aug. Specifically all Of
the governors Of the sixteen states
from Pennsylvania to Kansas have re-
sponded favorably today to an invita-
ton extended yesterday by the Illinois
Council of Defence to attend a con-
ference in Chicago on August 16 for
the purpose of bringing about a uni
form regulation of the price Of coal.
While the state council of defence
recommended to Governor Lowden
seizure of the Goa mines Of Illinois
for the period of the war as means of
reducing prices. the hope was ex-
pressed that the states Of the central
west will join in urging congress to
enact a law that will confer full and
sweeping powers Of control over coal
prices and distribution in an admin
istrative body OF the federal govern
ment which would have machinery to
give instant relief.
The legal committee Of the state
council of defence, in an opinion, held
that seizure Of the mines a be eff
fected withoutSthe institution of ju-
dicial proceedings, the right of the
state being in the security Of YER
eighty itself, and the doctrine of
eminent domain and the police power.
1t further states that If the mines are
taken over a scale of prices can be
established by state government and
changed from time to time to meet
VARYING conditions.
