JUDGE BACH DEFINES LAW
Orders Helena Office Operated in
Spite of Strike or Franchise
Forfeited Will Punish All
Those Who Interfere.
HELENA. Mont., Aug. 8. (Special.)
Judge Bach In the District Court today
had a hearing on the writ of mandamus
to compel the Rocky Mountain Bell Tele
phone Company to resume operations,
which he granted. He declared that the
company had a duty to perform and that
service must be resumed.
He said he would punish any one who
attempted to interfere with the lines, but
the mere fact that one person persuades
another not to work and uses no threats
or force does not Justify the company
in refusing to ,do its duty to the public,
adding that the company must operate its
lines or forfeit its franchise.
It was immaterial what it cost to
operate Its lines was the reply to a state
ment of counsel that the company had
not succeeded in securing help. Judge
Bach said lie knew the company could
get all the assistance reeded, If satis
factory remuneration were held out.
General Manager Murray of the tele
phone company said he was preparing to
bring damage suits against persons who
had interfered with the business of the
company and that more injunction suits
would be tiled. A few inexperienced
operators worked today.

affects 12,000 men.
Building Strike in Washington.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 8. A threatened
tleup of the building industries of Wash
ington reached a crisis late today, when
the carpenters, bricklayers and other
union workmen employed on many build
ings were ordered out. Business agents
of the building trades unions estimate
that from 500 to 700 men will not report
for work tomorrow. Officials of the Em
ployers' Association stated tonight that
they would have no difficulty in filling the
strikers' places.

DENVER, Aug. 8. Vice-president A. D.
Parker, of the Colorado & Southern Rail
way, says the company put to work 25
more men today and that in a few days
he will have the road in normal condi
tion. Grand Master P. H. Morrissey, of the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, says
that the situation is uncnanged. He
claims that the strikers are making
heavy inroads on the ranks of the strike
breakers and that most of the imported
men leave the service of the company
as soon as they learn of the strike. This
the company denies.
Today's developments show a serious
shortage of domestic coal in Denver.
NEILL GIVES LP MEDIATION
Finds No Basis of Agreement on
Colorado Road.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 8. The Gov
ernment has failed as peacemaker in
the strike of switchmen on the Col
orado & Southern Railroad, and Labor
Commissioner Charles P. Neill an
nounced tonight that all hope had been
abandoned of bringing about a satis
factory adjustment of the differences
between the railroad company and its
striking employes. Mr. Neill and
Chairman Knapp, of the Interstate
Commerce Commission, undertook to
act as mediators at the request of Vice-
President Parker, of the Colorado &
Southern, who declared that in calling
the strike, P. H. Morrissey, grand
master of the Order of Railway Train
men, was violating the union agree
ment signed at Chicago last year.
"It has been impossible to find any
common ground on which the contend
ing parties can agree," said Mr. Neill
"and I do not see that there is any
thing more the Government can do."
The negotiations, he said, insofar as
the Government is concerned, are at
an end.
The carrying out of Mr. Morrissey's
general strike order will mean a gen
eral tleup of the freight traffic and
the crippling of the passenger service
from Greely, Colo., to Texline, Texas.

STEEL CAPITAL AT GARY
NEW TOWN TO BE GREATEST OF
ITS KIXD IX THE WORLD.
$45,000,000 Additional Has Been
Set Aside by Steel Trust to De
velop Plant and Model City.
CHICAGO, Aug. 8. (Special.) Satisfied
that Gary, Ind., will be the steel capital
of the world, the directors of the United
States Steel Corporation have decided
to invest an additional $15,000,000 in the
construction of the model city and steel
plant just across the Indiana state line
from Chicago. Information that the
directorate of the steel corporation had
set aside the extra $45,000,000 for the pur
pose of developing Gary was received at
the New City today and caused a rapid
advance in values and a buoyant sensa
tion through the humming town.
The $45,000,000 is in addition to the
original appropriation of $75,000,000 esti
mated as the necessary outlay for the
building of the plant and for the forma
tion of the city which will house the score
of thousands of workers who will be em
ployed at Gary when the final plans
of the teel kings have been consum
mated. The excess appropriation is to be
used in widening the scope and extent of
the steel plant proper. The cost of the
building of Gary is Included In the first
estimate which was made when it was
proposed to transform a deserted acreage
of drifting sand into the greatest steel
manufacturing city of the continent.
Three thousand men were at work today
building Gary and additional help is being
employed by the battalion daily. The
accomplishments of the steel magnates in
the construction of the plant and the city
since the first spadeful of sand was turned
June 16, 1U06, almost surpass comprehension.

The Novoe Vremya today published an
editorial in which it protested against re
building the Russian fleet, basing its ar
gument on the overwhelming superiority
of the German and British Naval forces
in the Baltic and of the Japanese in the
Pacific. Ten or 15 years, according to
the paper mentioned, will not give Rus
sia time to create a fleet capable of suc
cessfully competing for the command of
either ocean, hence the Russian warships
would again be compelled to seek the
shelter afforded-by the coast batteries.
Under the circumstances, therefore, the
Novoe Vremya says, the better poliiiy is
to build fortresses, ' torpedo boats and
submarine boats.

scene was enacted in United States Com

when It finally dawned upon the 24
Chinese who deserted the German ship
Tolosan that they would have to go back
to that vessel.
They had listened with anxious faces
while the negotiations were being made
between the Chinese vice-consul and the
German consul. When their representa
tive finally announced that he had done
all he could for them and their case was
hopeless. a concerted wail of despair
went through the courtroom. Some of the
Chinese threw themselves on their knees
before the vice-consul and wildly im
plored him to save them from a voyage
back to China on the Tolosan. Others
beat their heads on the floor, tearing
their hair in their frenzy of mingled
rage and despair.
United States Marshal Elliott and his
deputies tried in vain to restore order.
Sobs, curses, shouts of vengeance, cries
of anger and declarations of defiance
echoed through the courtroom. It was a

be quieted.
When the time arrived to take the men
to the Howard-street wharf, there to em

M17ST GO BACK TO THE SHIP
Deserting Chinese Sailors- to Be
Surrendered to German Consul.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 8. In the matter
of conflict between the German Consul
and the Chinese vice consul at San Fran
cisco over the desertion of the Chinese
crew from the German tramp steamer
Tolosan, the Department of Justice de
cided today that the deserters should be
surrendered to the German Consul. Ex
plaining Its action, the Department is
sued a statement today saying:
The attention of the Government was
called by the German Ambassador to the
arrest at San Francisco of 24 Chinese mem
bers of the crew of the German steamer
Tolosan. and their beina; taken before &
commissioner to be deported to China under
the exclusion laws. As there is a treaty
with Germany providing for the arrest and
return to the German consuls of desertlnir
seamen. a question arose whether the Chi
nese should be deported today on the Man
churia or be turned over to the Consul.
As the German steamer proposes to take
them back to China, ana as we have no
right to object to a Chinese crew on &
foreign ship, and as the department could
see no Inconsistency between the treaty and
the deportation law. the District Attorney
was directed to advise the commissioner to
deliver the deserters to the Garman consul.
It Is understood that the deserters com
plain of their treatment by the officers of
the Tolesan. This may be simply because,
being deserters, they feel bound to gtve
some excuse for leaving the ship. However
this may be, the German consul has under
the treaty authority to settle all disputes
between the master and commissioner, and
they will doubtless obtain redress from him,
