TROOPS REQUESTED FOR JEROME
 DISTRICT
Exploded Shells Found Among Rocks Not Kind Used By Guards; Clark Of fers Many Concessions to Men.

JEROME, May 30-A formal request that troops be sent to the Jerome cop per district where about 1900 union miners went on strike a week ago to enforce demands for recognition of the union was presented tonight to Lieut.. Col. Jas. J. Hornbrook, of the Seventeenth U. S. Cavalry by Charles w. Clark, general manager of the United Verde mine.
 Testimony at coroner'S inquest to- day confirmed last nights reports that men not on duty at the United Verde mine, one of score of plants involv- ed in the copper miners s.-.ne here, fired shots which killed two men and wounded two others.
 Four discharged revolver cartridges were found at point past which a crowd of miners ran to aid in put ting out a fire which destroyed the United Verde and Pacific Railroad de- pot. Evidence also was presented to show one man was killed and one wounded by shots fired from rocks overlooking the narrow path the ml.. CTS had to travel. The exploded shells were of a brand not used by guards now on duty at the mine, it was said
 w. N. Terry, reported fatally wound ed last night, will recover.
 Testimony that he fired four times from the south and that he thought he may have hit Horace Harrison" one of the workers, was given today by Grover Breslin, United Verde guard. Breslin testified he opened fire when the shooting started.
 Until Breslin testified it was be- lieved that w. N. Terry, the second man wounded, was the only guard employed at the United Verde since the strike of union miners was called last Thursday night, who had fired any shots. The inquest was adjourned until tomorrow, at which time Terry will be examined if he is sufficiently recovered from his wounds to permit.

MARRIED MEN ARE SUBJECT
 TO SERVICE BY THE DRAFT

Washington, May 29. Married men are not exempt from the operation of the Selective Draft Law merely because they are married. Many married men will be drafted into the military service, but only when their wives and children are not finan- cially dependent upon them.
 Wives rich in their own right whose husbands fall within the prescribed age scale will have to give them up for the period of the war.
 This rule is not general, since some wealthy married men will be numbered among those who are of greater potential value to the nation in their usual voca- tions than they would be at the front.
 Many unmarried men with rela- tives wholly dependent upon their earnings will be exempt for this reason, if for no other.
