Miners in Southern
Colorado Strike for
Recognition of Union
TRINIDAD, Colo., Sept. 23. Hundreds
of miners In Los Animas and Huerfano
counties refused to enter the mines when
the night ehlft quit work at 8 o'clock this
morning, the hour set for the strike,
called by the United Mine Workers of
America. Several hours must elapse be
fore accurate figures on the number of
men affected . can be secured. Miners'
families continued to come Into Trlnldai
this morning.
Tb chief Issue Is rccogntto
tho union. Labor leaders unhesttal
declared a great majority cf the
working the coal mines would obtain the
demands made a week ago, while oper
ators aro as unanimous. In their state
ment that not enough workers will leavs
their employment to seriously cripple the
miner operations'.
At the beginning ,of the strike tho
operators' take' r. positive stand that there
will be no compromise with the miners on
the demand at union recognition. The
other demands of the miners for their
own check welghmcn, privileges to live
whero they please, trade where they
please ahd employ such physicians a
they please-are not receiving much dis
cussion either fr6m operators or "from
miners. Opposed to the' operators are tho
union leaders who declare tho strike will
be continued until recognized.
No violence of any. sort'' has occurred,
except In Colorado Springs, where a negro
miner wae said to have been attacked
by miners. last night. Conditions in min
ing camps give little evidence of any ex
citement which may be attendant upon
the strlko which state oficials Jn Denver
fear may assume proportions as large
and as serious as any which ever oc
curred in Colorado.

Reed and Hitchcock
Propose Revision
of Currency Bill
WASHINGTON, Sept 23. Complete.
revision ot the framework of the ad
ministration currency bill was proposed
by Senators, Reed, Hitchcock and Bristol
today during the examination ot Samuel
Untermyer before the: senate banking
committee.
Reed and Hitchcock have vigorously as
sailed certain provisions ot the house
bill. Today Senator Reed advanced what
he called the Hitchcock plan which would
eliminate the scheme of Teglonal reserve
banks and substitute a government Issue
of currency to Individual banks on com
mercial paper backed by a CO per cent
gold reserve up to 75 per cent of tho
capital stock of each bank. That would
be In addition to the present bank note
Issue
Senator Reed criticised the regional
bank plan aa making the individual
banks "aubeervient trf a combination of
banks." Mr. Untermyer opposed the
Hitchcock plan as not ottering enough
security to the government for the issue
of currency. Mr. Untermyer will return
Monday.

structed the Jury, that It must-bo shown

Baker's attorney ' answered that it was.
Judge Pollock then said the Mann act
applied only to criminal features ot the
Interstate transportation of women, and
suggested the pics, be changed to not
guilty.
"It was nqt the aim of congress to pre
vent tho personal escapades pf any man,"

announced at tho outset ot today's ses
sion ot the high court ot impeachment
that tho governor would cease henceforth
rem sin jo uoiuiuuai em ivjun eoojo
SAunsaxa m jo suopoun) om osiaaexa o)
Nearly all the members of. the court
were In their seats when It convened.
"The court having overruled tho motion
of the respondent," said Judge Cullen,
"to dismiss the articles of Impeachment
on the ground that the assembly had
no right to prefer the charges at any
extradrdlnary session, It now becomes In
cumbent on the respondent to make
answer to the charges."
Judge Herrlck, chief counsel for Gov
ernor Sulzer, then announced that In
view ot tho fact that the court had
refused to dismiss the proceedings, tho
governor would renounce his claim to
the right to exercise the functions ot
governor pending the termination of the
trial.
"When these articles of Impeachment
were first presented," Judge Herrlck
said, "the governor was advised that
there was doubt about the legality ot
the proceedings and for that reason he
declined to steD down from his office,
Ever since the recent decision of Supreme
Court Justice Haabrouck, ruling that
he had not the right to pardon a pris

office as to be inseporabli.
Conafrnctton of Lnvf ChnllenKed,
Judge Herrlck had the floor throughout
the morning session. After a long ad
dress In support of -his motion for the
dismissal of three articles ot tho im
peachment dealing with Suiter's state
ment of canlpalgn expenses and alleged
speculations In Wall street, ho summed
up- his argument as follows:
the falluro of the governor to file
a complete and accurate statement ot
campaign contributions did not consti
tute any offense recognizable by our
laws.-
"Tho election law does not require a
statement of contributions made to a
candidate.
"The failure of a candidate to tile the
statement required by this act is not an
offense,' but subjects htm to a peremptory
demand by a court to perforin this duty,
William Sulzer never received such a
demand.
"The. statute recognizes , a candidate's
right to the given notice ot errors In his
statement and his right to an opportunity
to correct them. The state cannot call
rhlm to account until It first has accorded
htm these rights.
"The penal coda does not require a
candidate to file a statement of contrl
buttons mde to htm, and there are no
other statutes on this subject.
"Incorrect statements of facts Inserted
in an affidavit but not material thereto,
does not constitute perjury.
"Perjury cannot be based on an oath
which was neither required nor author
zed by law.
"Aa the election law does not require
the btai-(iivutu be veritled, and us
neither the election law nor the penal
code require the candidate to Insert con
tributions made to him there is no'ground
for the charge of perjury, nor a charge
of neglect of duty."
These points were advanced in a supple
mental brief which came as a surprise
to members of the high court to whom
copies of Judge Herrlck's original brief
had been distributed.
Messengers were sent scurrying to ob
tain law books and the members seemed
to take a greater interest In the new
contentions than they had evinced, dur
ing any of the other legal preliminaries.
Informal whispered consultations were
held.
