In tho city. 00 per cent of the day shift
was reported at work. In the Black
Rock and the Butte and Superior, nearly
all tho shift went down this morning.
It was at these two properties that the
trouble was precipitated last Friday. No
officials ot trio Butte union of tho West
ern Federation of Miners were present
to protest against tho men who failed
to show their union cards.
Officials of the union have not appeared
since they fled when the parade waa
broken up on Miners' union day, It Is
believed no protest will be mada for tho
present,, thus avoiding further trouble
and keeping the mines in operation until
some understanding can be reached. In
the meantime tho sccedcirs from the
union who have been Influenced by In
dustrial Workers of the World leaders
are planning to get out a large vote on
Wednesday when tho miners will cast
their ballots on this question: "Shall we
retuso to show Westorn Federation cards
at all the mines?"
A committee of the seceders called on
the chief of police today urging him to
traco the miner who was entrusted with

denial that he had ordered the state
mllttla to hold Itself In readiness for a
call tu Butte. The governor said he has
come here simply to learn the situation
at first hand and to give advice wherever
necessary to citizens and officials.

retary Bryan said today.

Bryan referred to an attempt to drop
the negotiations for an adjustment ot the
Issue by some legislation by congress to
confirm the rights ot Japanese now in
the United States to own and lease land,
and a new treaty, looking to recognition
of the rights ot Japanese to naturallza
lion.
The Japanese ambassador here has
been actively pressing this subject on
the State department recently, In order
that when the Japanese parliament as
sembles next month Baron Koto, ttio
premier of the new cabinet, may be able
to report progress.

said:
"We haven't decided that point yet."
Later, Mr. Harkln said there waa a
possibility of the four outlying banks
taken over by the state bank permitted
to reopen soon.

Alton B. Parker of New York, once a
candidate for president. In addressing the
graduating class at the Yale law school
today. Continuing, he sold:
"Our forebears, clear ot head and far ot
sight, anticipated Just such vicious at
tacks by those In power and sought to
Insure to us a government ot laws and
not of men, and through their wisdom,
such a government Is ours for a little

The true patriotism, the speaker said,

citizenship and it Is free from selfishness
and shorn ot pyrotechnics.
True patriotism, Judge Parker de

Missing Balloon is
Believed to Have
Made Long Flight
PORTLAND. Ore,, June 15. That the
balloon 8prlngfleld, piloted by Roy Don
aldson, which left Portland last Thurs
day In a race under the auspices ot the
Aero Club ot America, has made a sen
sational flight, weathering the electrical
storm that brought three other starters
to earth, and across the Cascade range,
was the theory today ot those who have
vainly tried to locate the only one ot the
tour gas bogs now unaccounted tor.
Additional reports were received today
from farmers, who sighted the balloon
early Friday well under control and at a
high altitude. These reports have been
personally confirmed by the. searchers.
The balloon was being driven toward the
mountains.
It the Springfield has crossed the Cas
cades, it is possible It landed In one ot
tho wildest and most rugged parts of
Oregon or Idaho, and if the pilot and his
aid, Wilbur Henderson, of Portland, are.
unhurt, It might take them several days
to reach a center ot communication.

BADLY CRUSHED BY i BOULDER
Companion Drag Him Part "Way
Down the Mountain Rescue
Party Digs Htm from
Under Ashes.
VIOLA, Cal., June lS.-Lanee Graham,
the stockman crushed by boulders hurled
yesterday by Mount Lassen and loft for
dead by his companions on the slope of
the mountain, was alive this morning
and physicians said he had a chance
for lite. Ho had a broken collarbone and
a crushed side. Consciousness returned
to him today for the first time since he
was struck down in the first ot yester
day's two eruptions. The mountain was
quiet this morning.
Graham and two' companions, E. B.
Phelps and F. A. Tipple, both sawmill
men, were overwhelmed In the morning'
eruption .near- the crater. Ashes shrouded
them in blackness so thick that they
could, not see to" rite or seek shelter.
Wrapping themselves In their coats, to
keep as much of the sulphur fumes from
their lungs as was possible, they mode
shift as best they might to endure tho
peril.
When the shower of ashes ceased fall
ing and the air began to clear, Philip
and Tipple could nowhere see Graham.
It was some time before they found him,
lying face down In the blanket ot newly
fallen ashes, with a deep wound In one
side and apparently lifeless.
Graham Left for Dead.
Graham Is a heavy man. the mountain
side Is rugged climbing, and after drag
ging the body down hill a quarter of a
mile, Tipple and Philip, believing Graham
dead, left htm sheltered behind a rook
and plunged on downward for aid to
Manzantta lake, four miles further.
From Manzanlta lake word was tele
phoned to Redding for the coroner. He
and an undertaker were sixteen miles on
their way before they could be reached
with the news that Graham was alive
and a physician, not an undertaker, wan
needed.
In the meantime Philip got help at
Manzanlta Lake from Herbert Meyers,
Frank 8m.fn and Frank Schooling, young
men from Anderson.
The five climbed back four miles up the
mountain to recover trtiat they supposed
was Graham's corpse. They found him
covered an Inch deep with ashes, hut
when his features had been wiped clean,
they saw- signs of returning animation.
It was then 4 o'clock in the afternoon,
about six hours after the first eruption.
The five lifted, pulled, dragged, and In
open spots carried the helpless Graham
four miles to Manzanlta Lake, where they
got an automobile to Viola, nine miles
distant. It was midnight before they
could get him medical attention.

ing, United States forest supervisor, waa
not Injured in the eruptions yesterday ot
Mount Lassen.
He was not on the mountain. In tact, at
the time of either eruption, and the re
port that he had been mortally Injured
grew out ot contusing him with Lance
Graham In reports over a faint telephone
wire.
