BROUGHT IN To
WORK At HURON
STRIKE BREAKERS ARRIVE
FROM CHICAGO FOR DUTY
IN SHOPS.

Sioux Falls, July 31-One hun
of Chicago were brought into Huron
yesterday to replace striking rail
way shop workers at that city and
other points in that vicinity, accord
ing to word received from that city
late last night. The men were
brought into the city in three sleep
ers and one dining car and entered
the town with no interference on the
part Of the strikers.
No disturbances or threats of an
outbreak among union men has been
in evidence in Huron or any of the
other cities in that vicinity, accord
ing to w. III. King, United States
marshal. All reports from Mobridge
and other cities along the Milwau-
kee and Northwestern lines are to
the effect that no disturbances viii
be experienced at these places, he
added.
Papers were served on E. j. Hart,
union striker, who is alleged to have
hiadC dil dttoeh uPoh ~ W. iiVi Nit,
road master working at the round
house, at Mobridge, by the federal
authorities yesterday. He will be
taken to Sioux Falls and brought
before Judge James d. Elliott Tues
day in federal ocurt to show cause
why he should not be punished for
contempt of court in disobeying the
injunction recently issued by the
United States court.
The mechanics brought from Chi
cago are expected to go to work inn
mediately and there is some specu-
lation on the part of the citizens of
Huron as to just what the attitude of
the strikers will be toward the out
siders. The federal authorities be-
lieve that for the time being there
will be no attempt on the part of
the union men to violate the injunc-
tion restraining them from inter
fering with the work in the shops
1t is expected that the help
brought in will be able to assist ma
terially in keeping the necessary
trains moving in fairly good order
for the time being. Some of the
engines on the lines are in the round
house dead. A few days ago two of
the machines were not allowed to
leave the place.

TIVES WILLING TO MEET
HARDING PROPOSAL.

Washington, ID. c., July 31-Con-
fident prediction that the 100000
striking railway shopmen will be

the week and possibly before, was
made today by government officials

cal situation, caused by the twin rail

ing the last "a hours show that a
majority of las railroad executives.
who will meet in New York tomor-
row. will accept President Harding 8
terms for a settlement of the strike.
The presidents terms as stated by
the United Press already, have been
virtually accepted by the shopmen's s
leaders and a meeting of 80 MEM
bers of teh strikers policy commit
tee in Cicago tomorrow, will be
mainly for tie purpose of ratifying
te agreement.

Huron Attorney
Lauds Strikers

Huron, July 31--ID an interview
today, United States District Attor-
ney s. w. Clark states that reports
of pending strine troubles of serious
nature at Huron, were greatly exag-
gerated, and that after investigat-
ing local conditions thoroughly he
found that's uch reports had no fonn-
dation, in fact, Il consider these re-
ports" said Mr.. Clark, ito have been
wholly unfair to the strikers. | find
officers have been counseling their
men to restrain from violence and to
obey Judge Elliott's injunction.
They are conducting their strike
here along orderly yet businesslike
methods, and are to be commended
for their conduct" Mr. Clark and
United States Marshal W. III. King
spoke to strikers this morning, as
suring them that federal officers
here were prefectly neutral and
would take no sides in strike mat
ters, but were here to preserve peace
and order both among the strikers
as well as among ranks of railroad
employees.

IMMENSE RANCH
CHANGES HANDS
STENGER RANCH, NEAR RAPID
CITY, 1000 ACRES, GOES TO
ST. PAUL MAN.

Rapid City, July 3l-The famous
Edward Stenger ranch together with
cattle, horses and equipment has
changed hands.
Messrs. Edward Stenger and Chas.
j. Buell. returned from ST. Paul
Tuesday evening. They were in ST.
Paul several days and closed the
sale of Mr.. Stenger's entire Battle
Greek ranch, including cattle, hors-
es and equipment TO j. p. Rogers,
president of the well known j. p.
Rogers Land Co., of st. Paul. The
deal was negotiated through George
H. Randall, formerly in the banking
business at Rapid City, but now a
resident of Cedar Rapids, la.
The Stenger ranch comprises
about 1900 acres. one-half of
which is under irrigation. The
ranch is one of the finest and most
highly developed ranches in western
South Dakota and for many years
has been one of the ranch show
places of this country.
Stenger received some valuable
improved business property in Min
neapolis in part payment.
1t is the intention of Mr.. Rogers
TO cut the land up and offer it for
sale in small tracts so that IL will be
occupied by large number of famil-
les.
This is the largest single farm
land transaction In the history of
South Dakota.
The amount of the consideration
was not made public.

COAL MEN NOW
IN |DLENESS
HOUSING PROBLEM MOST COM
PLEX OF AhI-LIFE VERY
SIMPLE ONE.

Indianapolis, Ind, July 31-Their
belts are drawn little tighter and
their simple life is just little simp-
ler-that's how the union miners
are carrying on their long fight with
the operators, according to former
miner who has been through some of
the industrial conflicts in which the
pated.
Financing four months of idleness
as the mine workers have done,
seems almost an imposibility to
many city dwellers. II has brought
problems to the miners, too, but per-
sons familiar with the mining com
munity declared that the miners
will be able to exist when the urban
residents are finding the pinch of a
coal shortage almost intolerable.
Many miners anticipating the
strike on April /. took advantage of
the busy days to store up coal re-
serves and provide against idle days
by saving both in money and provi-
sions.
Then the strike came and the
miners retired to their homes, many
of which are surrounded by small
truck gardens, chicken lots and now
and then pig pen and cow shed.
The gardens and the stock helped
solve the food problem.
Shelter offered more complex
situation. But in many minine
communities of the central compel
tive field the ws4Aers have been
able to build small homes. In 9th
er places they resided in company
houses and i'm most instances the
miners admit they have been given
great consideration by the compan-
les owning these houses. No evic-
tions have taken place in the Hi
nois, Indiana and Ohio fields, ex-
cep tin few isolated eases. The op-
orators have been content to let the
miners occupy the houses, expecting
| that when work is resumed the back
rent will be paid as soon as possible
Strike benefits have been neglig
;ble. No benefits are paid by the in
ternational union during a genera
strike. Some district organizations
which had built up large reserves
have given aid but the amounts havt
not been great For the most par
every miner has been on his own re
sources.

FREIGHT RATES AND
FUEL PRICES MOUNT
BIG JUMP IN BRITAIN DUE TO
AMERICAN DEMAND FOR
LARGE SUPPLIES OF COAL.

London, July 31-Advices from
Cardiff announce that freight rates
have doubled and coal prices are
mounting hourly as the result of the
American demand for coal shipments
to the United States Immediately.
The largest firms are withholding
contract prices pending the specula-
tiv emovement following the Ameri-
can demand.
The miners federation has not yet
taken action regarding the demands
made by fomenters of trouble for a
clause providing no shipment of coal
to the United States during the
strike.
The statistical summary of the
coal output production cost for the
quarter which ended March 81, is
sued by the mines department today,
shows a tonnage for Great Britain OF
57,633,631 tons of which nearly A.
900, 900 tons was absorbed in work
ing the mines, and 100000 tons
is held in the mines for reserve
leaving 52.00O,000 tons available to
be sold.
The net cost of working the mines
after the proceeds of the miners are
deducted, is f35, 100000 in wages
was paid to about 100000 EN-
ployes.
1t is estimated that 100000 ton!
of coal have been sold in the nortl
and east for shipment to the United
States before October /.
