Secretary Haywood received Information
from Victor that members of the mllltla

which contained this news stated that tho
doors hod teen broken In with axes and
that these also had been used In smashing

OTHER SIDE OF STRIKE STORY
Exf-cntlre ' Board f. of Federation of
Miners Answers Hamlin and Pats'
' Responsibility for Violence. "'
, DENVER, June 11. The executive board
of the Western Federation of Miner today
Issued a statement regarding-' the situation
In Cripple Creek, In reply to the state
ments made by General Sherman M. Bell
and Secretary C. C. Hamlin of theCr)pple
Creek District Mine Owners association.
It Is as follows: ; '
The cause of the strike of the Western'
Federation of Miners In Colorado Is one of
long standing and Involves the failure on
the part, of miner owners In far parts of
the state to live up to their own agree
tnents. As far back as 1884, as a result of
the strikes at that time, the .mine owners
agreed that eight hours should constitute
a day's work, that the minimum daily
wage should be IS and that there) should be
no discrimination against union men . In
the hiring and discharge of labor.
At the outset of the present trouble Man
ager MacNelt rrf the-Standard mill at Colo
rado City, peremptorily discharged forty
rive men. members of the Western Federa
tion of Miners, for no other reason than
that they had become union men. All of
these were old employes of from two to six
year; standing. Mlllmen are affiliated with
the Western Federation of Miners and are
entitled to all of the protection that goes
with such membership.
Today the only questions' Involved' are
the enforcement Of the eight-hour day, the
right of men to organize in the unions and
to prevent discrimination against union
men of all kinds. .
' Where Responsibility' Rclo'ngra. .
The responsibility .' for the. lawlessness
connected with the contest rests entirely
on tho shoulders of the. mine operators,
the Citizen's alliance and their .allies,
backed up by the ready power of the state
government.
The responsibility' has been placed on
these persons and organizations by District
Judge Theron Stevens, who denounced the
military usurpation in Tellurlde In. strong
language from the bench; bv District Judge
J. Walter Dixon, republican, who openly
condemns Governor Peabody and severely
criticizes his sets, Involving the deporta
tion of men from the state without trial or
other chance of hearing; by former Gov
ernor Charles S. Thomas, who' plainly
pofnts to the Mine Owners' association and
the Citizens' alliance as being responsible
for the many outrages committed on the
persons of helpless and Innocent miners;
by the recent democratic state convention,
which denounced In scathing terms the
line of policy pursued.
The events of the present week In the
Cripple Creek district Justify every accusa
tion contained above. The following crimes
on citizenship have followed swiftly one
upon the other:
The resignation of Sheriff Robertson-of
Teller county, forced by a mob at the
point of a pistol and a poll of rope: the
forced reslgnutlnn of Coroner Doran of Tel
ler county, of the city marshal of Victor,
of various aldermen and Justices of the
peace in tne aisrict; the entire official di
rectory of the city of Goldfleld: assault
'ion and demolition of the Union hall In
.'Ictor; forcible entrance Into the four
ir.lon co-operative stores and destruction
f the contents; destruction of the Victor
Itecord by an armed mob; Invasion of
Dunnvllle, outside the military lines, by an
armed force under military command; ar
rest of men at their work and Incarcera
tion within the military lines; hundreds of
men confined In unsanitary hull pens; for
cible shutdown of the greal Portland mine'
fnr employing union mln. by order of the
military commandant on the plea of mili
tary necessity and subsequent deportation
ot the men therein employed.
Detectives Plan Ruin.
Concerning the eiplnsion which wrecked
-he depot at Independence and killed slx
tn unfortunate nonunion miners, It need
i lly be said that the self-confessed train
.'recker. McKlnney, In the employ of the
.line Owners' asHochttlon, had a few days
isvlously been reltiased from custody at
.k bohest of the attorney for the assocla
:on and this same McKlnney was obnerved
;ouig down Potts' Canyon in the Imme
.iiie vicinity of the wreckage only a short
sine after the disaster, and that the blood
Hiunds used to track the criminal went dl-ti-lly
to the house occupied by a deteetlve
1 the employ of the Mine Owners' usic!rt
!on and was promptly called off. McKln-i-y
staled on crosa-exnmltistlnn during the
rial of the union miners who were acuused
f the attempted train wrecking lliut he
nd another detective si Id that for a money
-onslderatton he would pull splkea and
-wreck a train. I
1 holographs of marked miner referred to
y tleneral Hell, who, he r'n'm. were
narked for death, must be regarded as an
nvcmlon of his own bruin. The photo
graphs In question are thnae.. of strike
breakers and were kept for the purpose pf

the men aoootninytiig their deaorlptlon so
Uiai iambra of organised labor ail over
the country would become thoroughly ac
quainted with these men who hsve com
mitted treason to themselves and to their
trade. The pictures are nothing more than
those having charge of tlae strike In the
district have publicly used for many
months.
Strike Result of Vote.
Charges that miner are not allowed to
vote on question of strike are utterly ab
surd. As a matter of fact, according to the
constitution of the Western Federation of
Miners it Is absolutely impossible for the
executive board to call a strike of its own
volition. The present strike Is a result of a
direct vote of tho unions In the district,
which left the matter entirely In the hand
cf properly delegated authorities for ad
judication and settlement.
The twelfth annual convention recently
held In Denver appointed a special Investi
gating committee consisting of Malcolm
O-illU of Uutte. Mnnt.: H. B. Seaman of
Kossland, British Columbia, and R. L. Allen
of Dillon, Wyo.. which committee made a
prrsouol Investlgntlon by a visit te the
Cripple 'Creek district only last week and
reported to the convention that the consti
tution of the Western Federation of Miner
had been observed In the minutest detail
during the entire prosecution of the contest.
Absolutely no tenths have occurred dur
ing the conteKt'for which the Western Fed
eration of Minors can or ought to be held
l sponsible. Some fifteen men were klllid
In the Stratton Independence mine through
the Incompetence of the men employed and

. We are unfortunatelv forced to abide by
the acts of an unbridled military despotism
that Is driving our members from pillar to
post. Their fortitude under the circum
stances is a marvel of the age and shows
thnt the Western Federation of Miners is
composed or tbs highest type of American
citizenship.

At the meeting of th American- Medical
association In Atlantic City the past week
college sports fell under, tha . b.yi of the
doctors, ' who sounded a Mote' 01 warning
of the -dangers resulting, from over-exertion
In., feats of strength. .The discussion
was In the nature of a symposium on ar
teriosclerosis, which Is a stiffening and
deterioration 'of the arteries, causing them
to age prematurely and .frequently affect
ing the heart. It Is hn Incurable disease,
resulting principally from dverwork.
Dr. James M. Anders - of Philadelphia
stated that the exoessive strain undergone
In college contests on football field and

teries among them. . He declared that the
arteries of -many young men are as de
crepit a those of a person 70 year of
age and he urged thaf It Is the duty of
the medical profession to warn parents
and those in charge of educational insti
tutions where athletic sports are permit
ted of the serious results that might fol
low the playing of football and other tests
of strength. He was aupported by Dr.
8tengel of the I'njverslty of Pennsylvania,
who said that be had had an unusual op
portunity to etudy and examine college
athletes, both during their athletlq. .ca
reers and for aome years afterward, and
he declared that the great strain put upon

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, Juno 11. (Special Tele
gram.) During the coming fiscal year th
Indian bureau plana to give Omaha a bet
ter show in the matter of warehousing and
shipping Indian supplies. Commissioner
Jones said today that next year Omaha
would be made quite an Important distrib
uting point fcf certain lines of Indian sup
plies, particularly drugs, sugar and packed
meats.
"We have a most excellent superintend
ent Iruchargo at Omaha," said Mr.. Jones,
"and under hi superlntendency it will be
greatly to our advantage to Increase the
facilities for warehousing and distribution
bf supplies from Omaha, and I Intend to
so Increase at the beginning of the new
fiscal year."
ComrrrlBsroner Jonea leave for San Fran
cisco the latter part of next week, via the
Southern route, but said today that upon
his return from the coast he would come
via Omaha and thus be able to personally
look Into the situation there. In year past
practically the entire business of purchas
ing and distributing supplte for the In
dian service has been conducted through
the cities of New York, Chicago, St. Louis
and San Francisco. Omaha, In spite of
protests, has been Ignored, representatives
In congress of Its neighbors, Chicago and
St. Louis, being powerful enough to main
tain the supremacy for their respective
cities. This they were able to accomplish
largely because in the past freight rates
aided their localities. Now, however, thla
matter of freight rates no longer mitigates
against Omaha, and the Indian bureau offi
cials are preparing to give Omaha at least.
a rair . proportion of the business1. The
merchants of Omaha have long waged the
fight for a reasonable share of the business

T. CROIX CLl'B'S TEJfJfIS TOl'HlfEV
Preliminary ( aRd First Round of
Matches Are Played Off.
Yesterday the preliminaries at the St.
Croix club were opened, though owing to
a misunderstanding many of the plavers
SoolStr t0 "PPear, did not show u. The
u ,!x hogan practice a month and a
half later than the Field clUb, and their
beginners did not make as good a showing
as did the youngsters of the Field club
on their opening doy. This lack of practice
was also apparent among the older ones,
who were continually hitting wild or serv
ing poorly. The surprise of the afternoon
was the play of Sleepaok a ''new un,"' who
beat Gillespie In the prelims and entered
the second round by defeating Champion
In the first. His piny -was not exceptionally
good, but he kept his head, played steady
and was blessed with a. bountiful store of
good luck, On Monday he will meet Kohn,
and there is hardly a doubt that will be
his finish.
Some of the men who were practicing
showed good form, but will have to hustle
If they wish to get the cltv championship.
At present . It looks KB if Chase who Is a
member of both the St. Croix and Field
clubs Is the only man they can depend
Upon. Yesterday's results were as follows;
R. Gillespie, plus H of 16. lost to ElaeDSck.
plus 15 B-4. 2-i. 11-9.
L. Kohn, H of 15, lost to Champion, plus
