 LIFE IMPRISONMENT

 Nick Rigles. confessed slayer of Harry Creme, waived all formalities yesterday which might stay his sent ence, and within less than 24 hours after avowal of the crime. appeared before Judge Stanford of the superior court for judgment. He was sentenced to a life term in the state penitentiary at Florence.
 Closeted with the judge and a sten- ographer earlier in the day, Rigles poured forth a repetition of the dis jointed tale he told county officials the night before. His story, punctuated with sobs, checked up in all essential details with his first story T kill Harry myself. Nobody else, ; he reiterated
 The truth of this statement is now vouched for by the authorities, who state they have positive evidence that no other person was implicated in the killing at Al Wall street a week ago last Monday.
 In his cell yesterday afternoon Rigles expressed relief at the fact that all is TOW over, and asked in despair ing tone if he would have any chance to recover from his illness in the prison at Florence. He is convinced that he will die soon from disease. and con- siders the hospital there as his lone chance for recovery.

DEPORTATION TRIAL
 THROWS MORE LIGHT
 0V W0BBLY STRIKES

i. DOUGLAS, Ariz., Aug. 29-Continu- ation this afternoon of the joint pre- liminary hearing of two hundred Douglas and Bisbee men charged w1.h Kidnapping as the result of their IL legged participation in the deportations that followed the I. w W. trouble in the Warren mining district two years ago brought out no sensational testi- mony. Additional light on the strike called by the I. W. W, however, was shed by witnesses for the state during cross examination.
 Canada Sparks, a miner, testified that, although he had been working in the mines for several months previous to the I. W. W. trouble. he had never learned until the deportations who had called the strike. Sparks said he had nothing to do with calling the strike or presenting the demands and did not know even while it was in progress whether it had been called by the l. w. w., union miners or in dividuals after he quit work when the walkout was declared. The witness said he had never been able to get anything but rumors as to who was responsible for the situation. Wages in the Warren district when the strike demands were presented, said Sparks, were the highest he had ever received in his life and he had had no complaint to make regarding the conduct of the mining companies.
 Thirteen of the defendants were named by the witness as having par ticipated in the deportations, but his testimony against most of them was that he had only seen them, some armed and some unarmed, at the base ball park at Warren or in suburbs of Bisbee on the day of the deportations. Three of the men named by him, he said, arrested him in Lowell, Arizona, but he was released at Warren when he told Sheriff Harry C. Wheeler that he was not a member of the I. W ". and was not deported,
 Among the defendants against whom Sparks testified were Colonel John .. Greenway, general manager of the Calumet and Arizona company in the Warren district and the New Corne.ia properties at Ajo, Arizona Gerald Sherman, consulting engineer for the Phelps Dodge Corporation; Charles Cross, former deputy sheriff of Doug las; Sheriff Harry C. Wheeler and several other deputy sheriffs and miners.
 Half a dozen other defendants were identified by two other witnesses for the state as having been seen, armed, during the deportations.

LABOR SITUATION
 DISCUSSED WITH
 PRESIDENT WILSON
lRepubIican A. p. Leased wirel

 WASHINGTON, Aug. 29.--After two days of conference with other officials of the American Federation of Labor, President Samuel Gompers, who re- turned from Europe this week rather unexpectedly, discussed the disturbed labor situation over the country with Prsident Wilson today at the White House
 No announcement was made on be- half of the president and MT. Gompers, and the union officials who accom- panied him, including representatives of the steel workers, steadfastly re- fused to discuss what had transpired
 It is known, however. that the presi- dent was asked to intervene in the dis pute between the steel workers and the United States Steel Corporation over wages, hours, working conditions and the right of collective bargaining
 Before going to the White House the committee of steel workers made public a telegram to the council at Gary, Ind, in which they charged that the steel corporation was discharging union men at number of plants in an effort to force the strike issue before the president could act The men were urged not to strike until all efforts at a peaceful settlement had been maiie.
 The federal executive committee held two sessions during the day. The ut- most secrecy was maintained, but it was understood that a number of labor disturbances over the country were discussed with particular attention giv. en to the situation as it affects railway and steel workers.
 Some officials saw in the messages sent to the railroad shopmen yester- day and to the steel workers today disposition on the part of the labor leaders to follow the suggestion of President Wilson that the matter of wages and working conditions be held in abeyance until government agencies had had time to carry out their pro- gram looking to a reduction of living costs and general restoration of con- ditions to something approaching nor nal

STOCKMEN GIVE THEIR IDEAS LIN PACKER C0N TROL
All Witnesses Before House
 Committee Oppose Fed
 eral Packing Regulation Give Sharp Advice to. City Folks About Meat
Republican A. p. Leased wlrel

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29. Inter- jecting some sharp advice and warning to city dwellers as to meat prices, western stockmen today laid before the senate agriculture committee fur ther protests against the Kenyon Kendrick bi,ls to regulate the packing industry.
 I'm going home and tell my neigh bors that we'll have to eurtail produc ton to the point where consumers will eat the whole carcass said George T. Donaldson, president of the Kansas State Livestock association. With J. H. Mercer, Seattle commis- sioner of that state and others, he said he had been Investigating the distribution of meats in all the larger cities.
 Right in your city of Washington" he told the committee, T have found the fore quarters of beef selling to the retailer for eight cents a pound and selling to the consumer at 32 cents. We learn that there are TOO places here where meat is sold and we think that 100 would be ample and reduce the cost to consumers too.'
 Doesn't Like Trade Commission
 Mir Donaldson opposed the regula. tory measures and Senator Kenyon republican of Iowa. asked him if he had read the federal trade commission report on the subject
 T have replied Donaldson, "and regret to say I haven't as high re- gard for the federal trade commission as an American citizen of my age ought to have"
 Mir Mercer, though opposing the bills said packers ought to relinquish own ership of stockyards in favor of the producers.
 W. B. Tagg. Omaha, Nebr. livestock broker, gave the committee several suggestions alternatively to provisions of the bin. He said that commission to regulate the industry and administer licenses would be preferable to a single official. J. H. Bachelor, another Ne- braska stockman, attacked the entire proposal, as did most of the witnesses heard, and said that the hign price agitation was due largely to people who want six hours work and IS hours pay,
 Witnesses Have All Favored Packers
 Most of the testimony taken during the last week from producers has been highly favorable to packers. Senator l Gronna, republican, North Dakota, pointed out to E. P. Meyers of Hyan- his, Nebraska land we are hearing good deal about the possibility that the packers might have induced you all to come. Did anybody pay your expenses or do anything else to get you to come down here for them?"
 T am not in favor of the packers, T MT. Meyers retorted. I'm speaking in my own interest. Cripple packing busi- ness. license it, and add to its cost of operation and you hit me, because the excess cost will have to come out of the producer
 A., E. Stryker, secretary of the Omaha Livestock exchange, said that he met hundreds of shippers every week and never heard one word in favor of any scheme of broadening governmental control over industry. He estimated that independent packers bought 750,000 hogs out of 5000, ,000 shipped to the yards last year.
