Butte, Mont, Aug, A strike OF

The local branch of the Montana
Metal Trades Council will meet to-
morrow night to take steps toward
calling out all affiliated organizations
in the local mines. This includes en-
gineers, electricians, boilermakers, pat

Other branches of the state council

agreement with these unionists before
the Butte locals can strike.
The men plan to demand $3.50 day
and the abolshment of the present
sliding scale which depends on the
price of copper.
Such a strike as planned might force
complete shutdown Of all mines.

IN AUTO ACCIDENT

and Turned Over Crushing

Mrs. z. T. Keyes, mother of Mayor
Walter Il. Keyes, was killed last night
near Fossil, Wheeler county, by the
overturning of an automobile according
to long distance telephone message
received by Mayor Keyes while attend
ing the council meeting. The message
came about nine O'Clock and was a
shock to the mayor and the couneilmen
present. The council adjourned imme-
diately, although in the midst of dis
cussion of bids on the cement mixer.
On account Of the shock to the mayor,
announcement Of the accident was made
by Councilman Rigdon.
The details Of the accident sent over
the phone were scanty but Mayor Keyes
was informed that his brother, Henry
Keyes, was uninjured.
After leaving the council chamber,
which he did at once, the mayor went
to his office in the Bank of Commerce
building and prepared to leave on the
first train out of the city for eastern

Mrs Keyes formerly lived in this city
at the corner of Cottage and State

Washington, Aug. IA joint resolu-

Declaring that lawlessness reigns in

the situation.
She said that the department of labor

Cement mixer AND
SALARIES DISCUSSED
Council Has Busy Session
AdjOurns On Hearing of
Death Of Mayor S Mother

Two bids for the concrete mixer the
city purposed buying had been read
last night at the meeting of the coun-
Jcil, and the committee on public i'm
provements had looked them over in
committee of the whole and then re-
ported back to the council recommend
ing the bid of the Koehring Machine
company, which offered No. II mixer
for $1434.75 as against the mixer Of the
Hodson-F Feenaughty No. for $l575, be
accepted, when Councilman Ward arose
and startled the council by stating that
it looked rather shady to him to find
that the mixer the council was accept
ing had been delivered before the bids
were opened.
Councilman Ward said he could not
quite see through the proposition as
the recorder had written to four COM
panies for bids on mixers. He said it
was a shame to railroad things through
in that manner as the bids had not been
referred to an engineer for approval
or to any one who knows anything about
machinery. He moved to amend the mo-
tion to accept the lowest bid presented
hy making the subject a special order
Of business at the next meeting.
In the opinion Of Councilman Me-
Clellad it was matter of Importance
and could afford to wait until the next
meeting. Besides there were six council
men shy last night and he said those
absent always hollered when things
were purchased in their absence and he
wanted full council present. He said
the matter was sprung on some of them
unawares and they did not know what
they we're doing. -
At this point the announeemet of the
death Of Mayor Keyes mother was made
and the council adjourned until Wednes-
day evening.
However, the mystery was taken out
Of Councilman Ward s charges when It
was stated, after the council meeting,
that the cement mixer had been sent by
