Sands, a former Seattle high school
youth and former Brigadier - General
in Estrada's - army, told some of his
experiences in the Nicaraguan insur

Young Sands escaped being shot by a
firing squad of the Madrlz army by
the chance aid of Dr. Clarence Burg
heim. of Houston. Tex., who refused to
give medical attention to the Madriz
officers unless Sands was paroled.
"I was captured at Prlnzapulca, on
the coast. June IS. two days after I had
made an attempt to blow up the Nica
raguan gunboat Venus," said Sands. "I
was charged with being a dynamiter
and a spy. Of course, the -trial was a
farce and I was sentenced to be shot,
but Dr. Burgheim Intervened and I was
paroled."
Sands tried to dynamite the. gunboat
Venus by paddling out to her in a
canoe as she lay off Blueflelds Bluff.
"They saw me," he said, "and sank
the canoe with a machine gun.. I es
caped wlthout a scratch and swam
ashore."
Wttta seven men Sands wa: sent two
days afterward to Prlnxapulca, a town
below Bluefields. The gunboats Venus
and Jaclnta came down, shelled the
town, landed 150 marines and captured
Sands and two of his men.
"Two days after this capture." he
said, "they took me out and made me
watch them shoot my two men they
had captured. It was to impress me
with my coming fate. They blindfolded
them, stood a file of soldiers off a
few paces, and shot them."

PRISON MONEY DIVERTED
Part of Maintenance Fund Will Be
Spent on State Highway.
OLYMPIA, Wash., July 20. (Special.)
About $2000 ol the funds appropriated
from the state's general fund by the last
Legislature for the maintenance of the
State Penitentiary at Walla Walla Is to
be diverted to assist in the construction
of the state highway leading from Lyle
Sam Hill's town of Mary Hill, and
other state road works. It was the orig
inal plan of the good roads enthusiasts"
to 3ecure" the diversion of about $40,000.
The diversion was urged on the con
tention that so long as the work on the
highway was being done by convicts the
penitentiary should pay the board and
clothing of the workers out of the peni
tentiary maintenance appropriation, in
stead of having the payment made out
of the mate highway fund appropria
tion for the road.
, A. long conference was held today in the
I office of the Governor, attended by Gov
ernor nay. Atiorney-Ueneral Bell, mem
bers of the Board of Control and High
way Commissioner Bowlby, at which it
was decided, on advice of the Attorney
General, that, as there was not enough
work at the prison to keep all the enn-
j victs employed, it would probably be all
. right to divert from penitentiary main
tenance aDout ni cents per day for each
convict" working on state roads.

Work for Six-Hour Law in Ne

Men Suffer Underground.
DENVER, July 20. The reoort of
the executive board of tn Western
Federation of Miners, made to the con
vention here today, reviews conditions
In the mining fields In which the Fed
eration, is active.
Conditions In Kansas, Missouri and
Arkansas are characterized as deplor
able. In this field, the report says,
wages are low, sanitary conditions are
bad and there is a lack of intelligence
and unity among the workmen.
The Joplln, Mo., district, where 1700
men are employed, is described as par
ticularly bad.
District No. 4, comprising Colorado,
New Mexico and Utah, is more pros
perous than last year. There are com
paratively few miners idle at present.
Efforts are being made to organize
8000 men employed in the mines and
smelters of Garfield, Murray and Bing
ham, Utah. Seventy-five per cent of
the workers in these camps are Greeks
and Austrians.
Conditions Are Improving.
In Nevada. Arizona and Southern
California conditions are Improving,
the report says, but Nevada is still
suffering from . "wildcatters" and most
of the work is being done in produc
ing properties. The report recommends
agitation for a Federal law wiping
out the "wildcatter" who. it states, ex
ploits a prospect and leaves the miner
to hold the bag.
Mining conditions are stagnant In
Idaho, and the greater portions Of
Washington and California, except in
the larger camps. The railroads and
some of the larger mines of California,
the report asserts, are ignoring the
eight-hour law.
Conditions in Canada are described as
good, but little is known of Alaska, be
cause federation officials have been un
able to send out mail in the Winter and
steamship service has only recently
opened.
Six-Hour Law Sought'.
The report suggests that the federation
use its influence to have a six-hour law
for the mines passed in Nevada. Mon
tana and Arizona, because . of intense
heat in the mine workings. It asserts
there 1g more Ice used in the mines under
ground in Nevada than on the surrace,
because of the intense ,heat, and that the
miners work with ice packed in their
rubber boots. Sometimes they are com
pelled to stand in 'water which is at a
temperature of 130 degrees. Ninety de
grees temperature is a common thing in
the three named states, says this report.
The. executive committee asks that one
day's pay of each union miner be con
tributed to the organization funl and an
other similar sum to the defense fund. It
is asserted there are 200,000 miners un
organized ant the organization fund will
be used to urge them to Join unions.
Charges were made formally against
J. P. Madigan. of White Falls, Mont., a
delegate to the conver.tiom, to the effect
that he served as a railroad Deputy
Sheriff in the Gieat Northvrn strike last
Winter. Madigan denies the' charges and
the matter was referred to a committee
for investigation.
John Powers was seated as a delegate
from the Butte union over the srtest of
W. E. Bradley.

ing low water and transmit It over the
entire valley. Power will be supplied to

stamps, etc.. and will develop many mines
wmcn are lying Idle because of the lack
of cheaper power. The power can be
used In the lumber camps for cutting
trees.
Farmers will be able to use this power.
Separators can be run by a small motor.
A simple pumping system can be Installed
and the water pumped for irrigation, be
sides using it for the house and for fire
protection. Lights In the barn and out
houses will be of great service.
The power plant and system will be
built Immediately If encouragement is
shown. All asked is assistance In the
form of franchises, right of way for the
transmission line and the subscription of
the bond issue.'
