DES MOINES, Sept. 15.-(Spcclal Tele
gram.) The Motherhood of Locomotive
Firemen todny ndopted a resolution con
cerning tho Idaho miners' strike which con
demns tho Interference of the government
and stato authorities in vigorous terms nnd
censures tho house committee on military
affairs, of which Congressman Hull of this
district Is chairman, for not publishing the
testimony given during the investigation
The action of the authorities In mnltitnlulng
martial law in the district for sixteen
months Is pronounced a violation of the
constitution in that It deprives them of
liberty of speech and tho freedom to unite
tholr Influence ns well as to seek employ
ment unless they forever forswear allegiance
to any lnbor organization.
Tho first Des Moines victim of the Gal
veston storm la Alexander Paisley. No par
ticulars whatever have been received, the
only knowlcdgo of the disaster coming to
tho family In the printed list of tho dead
Mr. .mil Mrs. Alexander Paisley went to
Galveston, Tex., some weeks ago In the
hope of benefiting Mr. Paisley's health. It
Is believed by the relatives here that both
met denth In the terrific storm. They were
occupying rooms In the part of the city
which encountered the most severe force of
tho Hood and which wns completely Inun
dated. Held ltepoiillle for Dealli.
The coroner's Jury Impaneled to sit upon
tho dead body of William Foster, shot by
Hnttle Mash last Sunday, concluded Its la
bors and returned a verdict holding the girl
responsible for the man's death . The Jury
found that Poster "enme to his denth by
reason of n gun shot wound caused by n
leaden bullet fired by a revoUer In the
hands of Hattle Mash." This verdict of the
coroner's Jury will probably have consld
erable weight In the determination of the
case, whether or not the girl will bo tried
for tho murder of Poster. She Is now at
liberty on howl, her father nppearalng -as
her surety, and in view of the written state'
ment nnd exoneration by Foster of tho girl
her ultimate release has been expected In
some quarters. The Jury's finding may
change this and cause the girl to be bound
over to the grand Jury and stand trial Mr
her net.
The first annual Des Moines liorso show
that closed today was a success In ovcry
way, financially as well as otherwise. The
show was to have closed last night, but rain
Interfered and another big crowd attended
tho concluding matinee today. A feature of
the day was the purchase by C. E. Hawson
of Des Moines of the famous bono Quo
Vadls, owned by A. E. Ashbrook of Kansas
City. Tills purchase, makes Mf. Hawson's
