Missoula, Mont., May 4. Differ
ences between the Industrial Work
ers of the World and the Montana
Federation of Labor have resulted in
tying up the lumber Industry of
western Montana. The operators
granted demands for increase of
wages, when the question of what or
ganization to recognize precipitated
trouble, causing the tieup after the
men had voted to return to work.
Similar Ticup in Philadelphia.'
Philadelphia, May 4. As a result
of the dispute among the labor
unions representing the bricklayers,
stonemasons and granite cutters of
this city, work on many buildings
was suspended today by an order of
the muster bricklayers, who last
night decided to stop work until the
unions can come to an agreement.
About 4000 workmen are attested,
but if the suspension continues for
more than a week about 30,000 men
of the building trades will be forced
inlo odleness. The dispute concerns
the laying of stone after being made
ready by the granite cutters. The
masons hold they should lay th
tone, while the granite cutters claim
they should not only cut the tone,
but lay it The bricklayers recently
called strikes on building operations
on which granite cutters were laying
the stone, and the union refused to
renew the wage agreement batwen
the organizations and the builders,
which expired on May 1, unless the
contention of the stonemasons was
agreed to.
The master builders at a meeting
lart night requested the union to call
off these strikes, which affected
about 300 men, until the matter in
dispute could be settled. The request
was refused, and the bricklayers de
cided to pay off their men and Inau
gurate a lockout until the unions
could agree.

POLICE COVHT VARIATIONS. ' I
Due to Tempering Justice With
t Parkcx Mercy.
The police court session this morn
ing offered some variations from the
usual routine, principally because
justice was tempered with mercy by
Juflga FarkeB, who Is serving tempor
arily as recorder. There were but
three men in the bunch brought into
court The first up was a sheep
shearer" who had looked too long Up
on the wine when it was reddish. But
he was not of the usual "drunk draft"
tvne and the Imlire wan rilnnoueri tn
be lenient with Mm. ,
"Can you pay a small fine, Mr. T"
he was ariked, and when the fellow
declared he could do so a sentence of
(5 or three days was Imposed.
The second man was a railroad la
borer Who was extremely anxious to
assist the Pacific Construction com
rany complete its contract, and he
wkf allowed to go on condition that
he leave for the work camp at once.
Pete, alln George perlnger, was the
third prisoner, and he told graphical
ly of how he had been provided with
tome firewater and how he had been
taken in custody by one cf the night
men.
"When are you going to pay .me
that money you owe rut?" inquired
Judge Parkes, but the Indian only
K'lnned a Bheeplsh grin in reply.
However, he promised that If allow
ed to go he would not get drunk
again, so he was allowed to depart.

Diminutive
rrocessl'm Was Led by Thirty-two Equestrienne and Cloned by the
Shetlnnils Wcnthcr and Other Factors Ideal and Every Detail Was
Carried Out Without a Flaw -A nlmali nnd Vehicles Were Decoratfd,
v
and the Pageant Was Extremely Pretty mid Will Never be Forgot
ten Was Witnessed by Thousands of Spectators.
With an array that must have been
far Greater than that dreamed of by
Us promoters, the horse show was
pull.d off here this forenoon and
proved a success from start to fin
ish. With over 100 fine bred horses
In line and numerous features that
made the show Interesting, the affair
lasted for an hour or more and was
witnessed by thousands of spectators
From stuit to finish there was not
a Janclc in the parade, no accidents
occurred, the weather was ideal and
there wa not a thing to mar ,the
pleasure of tin- event.
That there are many fine horses
In Umatilla county, trotting, coach
and draft, has long been' known to
the world, for some of the record
breakers have gone forth from local
tracks. But it takes an occasion
such as that this morning to display
the real number of fine aitmals
tk.ere are in the vicinity. Fven then
the representation was not comjdete
thin morning, for some good horses
wore not entered through the Inabil
ity of their owner to have them on
hand.
To particularize upon the fine fea
tures of the parade would be dlffl
cul:. for It was all meritorious.
However, It is safe to say that the
hr'ga.le of lady equestrians carried
off the high lienors. Therp were 32
ladles In the division, all experienced
horsewemen, nnd most of them ap
repid nt th'ir best. The procession
was led by Ca tain M. S. Kern, whj
was in charge of the riding, brigade.
Immediately behind the Indies
can.e nine fine hred trotting tal.
lions, led by trainers and behind
them 11 standud hred trotting mares
and colts. Behind these came the
cMieh stallions, followed by the sin
gle drivers There were 16 of these
In the line and eight double driving
teams. Behind the driving teams
came the big draft stallions, of
rhlch there ar scores In this coun
rv, wlill" the nai was brought up bv

As the lang line moved down Main
treet to Court and out that thor-ntisM.-n-p.
to Mill and beck on Water
and Main to the fair grounds, it was
eagerly watched by the lines of peo
rle ulonr the tldewalks and the
crowds n the upper story windows
Interesting features In the parade
were the single driving turnout of
Mis. M. B. Gwlnn and the Shetland
tandem driven by Lester. Swaggart.
These and other features were cheer-1
ed by the crowd as they passed.

yard hurdles, time- 27 25 second.'.
The total number of points taken by

19. the largest number by any indi
vidual member of the track teams.
The relay race, which was one of
the chief events of the field meet,
was won by Oakesdale high school,
which won 29 points.
The work of Ora Jay was consMei
ered phenomenal for a high school
student, and his career in athletics
will be watched with Interest.
' The time for sentencing Sewell
was originally set frr last Momlav,
but at the lnstanojb of Colonel Ra'ey,
attorney for Sewell, the time was ex
tended until today. Meanwhile a pe
tition asking for the pnrolllng of
Sewell by Judge Bean was circulated
nnd signed by many prominent lo
cal business ar.d professional men.
However, the supplication was not
heeded by Judge Bean, nor was it
endorsed by District Attorney Phelps.
When Sewell was brought up for
sentence this afternoon Colonel Ha
ley spoke very briefly In his behalf,
herely calling attention to the peti
tion that had been filed. No reply
was made by the dlstiict attorney.
In Imposing the sentence Ju lge Bean
declared that he was disposed to
show leniency towards the prisoner,

the indeterminute sentence.

Pet Pulp Beeves.
Warren Chandler left Monday
with the last lot O.M300 head of beet
pulp fed catMc which Jeff Bull re
cently disposed of to Kiddle Bros,
and to the Union Meat company of
Portland. Several other hundred
head have been disposed tif during
the winter to locat butchers. There
is now left a bunch of 70 or 80 cat
tle at the sugar factory yards, and
they will consume within a few days
the remaining supply of pulp. Quite
a lot of the young stock that had
been kept at the pulp yards the past
winter have been turned onto the
range, and the feed yards will be
cleared by the 10th of the month.
During the winter Mr. Bull has
consumed for cuttle feed 5000 tons
of pulp. During the severest part
of the season when the yards were
full of feeders, the quantity of pulp
ued averaged about f5 tons per day.
later on hi the season, when the
yards had been thinned out, the
dally consumption of pulp ran as low
as 15 tons per day.
The entire output of beet pulp,
with the exception of a few reserved
orders in wagon lots, was contracted
f 'r by Mr. Pull last fall at an agreed
price per ton. The pulp was not
weighed, but was estimated at a cer
tain percentagu of the weight of the
beot9 which went through the fac
tory. In connection with the use of
beet pulp for cattle a large quantity
of ether feed was used, and according
to al! accounts the feeding season at
the factory has been a great success.
At any rate these cattle have been In
demand and have brought good
prices, nnd aside from any squeamish
notions that may be held as to the
fitness of beet pulp for beef cattle, It

San Francisco, May 4. All hopes
of an early settlement of the metal

to the seriousness of the situation, the
employers today officially announced
they would declare an open shop.
Four shops which have been in oper

The strikers claim only 3000 are out,
while the employers say fully 8000
