BUTTE MINERS 60 ON STRIKE Nine Thousand Men Quit Work In Big Mines. H o is t in g E n g in e e r s W e ste rn W ith d ra w Fe d e ra tio n of fro m M in a ra . a n d T r o u b la ia B r o u g h t o n by M in e r s ' U n io n to F o r c e T h e m B a c k — S m e lte ra W ill C lo s e D o w n Butte, Montana, Feb. 17.—Through the refusal of 187 engineers manning the big hoists of mines to go to work this morning in their effort to pull apart from the jurisdiction of the Western Federation cf Miners and force the mining companies to recog nize the International Engineers’ un ion No. 138, all except three mines were compelled this morning to sus pend operations, throwing 3,000 men , into idleness. The Silver Bow, the Berkeley and the Mountain Consolidated mines of the Amalgamated Copper company are still operating but with crippled forces. Senator Clark's smelter wan forced to suspend this morning and within four days the Amalgamated smelters at Great Falls and Anaconda, employ ing 5,000 men, will also be forced to shut down. Ten per cent of the smel- termen were laid off this morning. Less than 500 miners are at work in Butte today, every company In camp being tied up as a result of the Bquab- ble, which is purely between union organizations, no question of wages or hours being involved. . Miners and smeltermen refuse to handle ore hoisted by International en gineers and the companies steadfastly refuse to accord the new union recogni tion. Because of the great responsibility entailed, the companies will refuse 'to permit any but experienced Butte en gineers to man the engines. With the closing of the coal mines, lumber mills and stone quarries, to follow the suspen sion of the smelters, 18,000 men will be rendered idle in Montana and Wy oming. The trouble between the hoist engin eers and the miners has been of long standing, and has occasioned much bit terness on both sides. It reached a point last fall where the miners re fused to go into the shafts where en gineers who refused to affiliate with the Western Federation were employed. The miners demanded that the engin eers either join the Western Federa tion or leave the mines. This the en gineers refused to do and the miners appealed to the operators to discharge the engineers or endure a strike. The operators at first decided to keep the engineers, but later, when the supply of ore in the bunkers began to run low and threatened the big smelters with a shutdown, they capit ulated to the miners. At this juncture the smeltermen, numbering several thousand, stepped into the fight, and used strong meas ures to compel the engineers to join the Western Federation. The mine operators, threatened with serious fin ancial loss, joined with the miners and smeltermen in enforcing the demand, and the engineers capitulated. C A R N E G IE G E T S B U M P E D .

Pittsburg, Feb. 17.—Andrew Car negie and the members of the party that will accompany him to California are considerably bruised as the result of an arccident in the local yards of the Pennsylvania railroad that might have been fatal. The steel king and - his party were preparing for dinner when they were struck by an incoming train. They were in the private car Olivet, which will carry them to the Pacific coast. Every person in the car was thrown to the floor, and several of them re ceived painful cuts and bruises. The engine of the incoming train struck the Olivet directly opposite the window at which Carnegie was sitting. N o N e w s or M is t in g T u g. Washington, Feb. 17. — It was learned today that a tug sighted off Mauntauk Point by the whaleback steamer Bayview was the naval tug Apache. The Apache is one of the vessels dispatched to search for the missing government tug Nina. When the Apache was sighted by the Bay- view, she was thought to be the lost ship. There is little doubt in naval circles here that the Nina has found ered, and that her crew of 32 men have been drowned or they would have been heard from by this time.

Salt Lake, Feb 17. — Absolomon Woolf, a pioneer of Utah, died today at Hyde Park, Utah, leaving 153 de scendants. “ Abby” Woolf, as he was called, had the distinction of marrying two wives on the same day under the rites of the Mormon church. Fifty years late, April 19, 190, he celebra ted a double golden wedding. He boasted that he never had a quarrel with either wife during his lifetime. Woolf was an Indian scout of some fame in the early days of Utah. He is survived by^a family of 22 children. One Explosion a Month.

Feb. 18.—The blizzard that gripped the Rocky mountains and Mis souri valley regions yesterday swept eaatward today and tonight the Ohio valley and western Alleghenies are struggling with one of the heaviest snows of the winter. Extreme cold prevailed in the West ern states today, the thermometer at the summit of the Rockies going aa low as 60 below zero. It was 17 be low at Pueblo. Temperatures in the middle Missouri valley moderated during' the day, but with nightfall the thermometer again began to fall and zero weather is predicted by tomorrow morning. A severe blizzard is raging over Lake Erie and Ohio is buried under heavy snow. Passenger trains on trunk lines east of Chicago are from one to four hours late. The temperature at St. Louis to night is 4 below zero, and tempera tures as low as 8 below are reported in Missouri and Southern Illinois. Cincinnati tonight lies under a blanket of snow which is the heaviest fall recorded there in 25 years. The snow has been falling steadily for 24 hours and at 10 o’clock tonight has reached a dept of 20 inches. Communication with the Kentucky side of the Ohio river practically sev ered for several hours this morning. All trains are irom one to four bonrs late. Reports from towns throughout Southern and Western Ohio say 24 in ches of snow iB general.

Washington, Feb. 19.—Senator Bev eridge, of Indiana, got his committee on territories into action today and within a short time had established the fact that the Alaskan syndicate owned by J. P. Morgan & Co. and the Guggen heim brothers had a steel grip on the natural resources of that territory. The fa :t of significance brought out is that the Morgan-Guggenheim syndi cate ha. an option on the celebrated Cunningham coal claims through which came ibe quarrel that resulted in Gifford Pinchot being dismissed as United States forester and brought on the so-called Ballinger-Pinchot inves tigation now under way. These claims, according to the testi mony brought out by the Indiana sen ator are now held in escrow awaiting the decision of the government sb to whether they are valid. If they are eventually approved, the Morgan-Gug- genheim syndicate will come into pos session of them. The Alaskan syndi cate is the general name for the vari ous companies operating in Alaska, all being owned by the Morgan-Guggen- heim crowd. It was shown that the syndicate was formed in 1906 by the purchase of 46 per cent of the Btock of the Northwest ern Commercial company, which owned the Northwestern Steamship company and the Northwestern Fisher ies company. The latter company packs 300,000 caseB of salmon annual ly, as compared with a pack of 2,000,- 000 cases by other interests. Last year the Alaska Steamsip company was formed by reorganizing the com panies in which the syndicate had bought large interests and it now operates 12 steamers, or rather 11, as reports today indicate that one has been lo st A long list of steamship companies in which the Alaska syndi cate has no interest was given in sup port of ita claim that it was not a mon opoly. The rai:road owned by the syn dicate is now 102 miles long, and ia to be extended to 199 miles. Both Messrs. Steele and Birch in sisted that there was no truth in the re ports that the syndicate had, or was seeking, a monopoly of railroads, steamship lines,fisheries, copper mines or coal lands in Alaska. They denied with great emphasis that they were trying to “ gobble up’’ Alaska. Tokio, Feb. 18.—“ We are tired of the anti-Japanesism of American pol itician^,’’ declares the Asahi today in an editorial which is typical of the general comment upon the Hayes bill in the American congress. “ The question of the naturalization of the Japanese in America is one of the most important matters of the present time,’’ continues the Asahi. “ The time has cripened for Japan to take a decisive step toward co-opera tion with the better element of Amer ica, such as that represented by former president Roosevelt. “ I t is time for this country, to begin negotiations with the better class of Americans looking towards the legaliz ing jof Japanese naturalization. “ Naturalization will be the perma nent solution of the problem.

This victory for the direct primary was followed immediately by another when the house concurrd in the senate amend ments to the main direct primary bill. All that is left to put the two direct primary bills up to Governor Deneen for his signature is for the sena'e to concur in the house amendments. This will be done. Conboy Jury Disagrees. San Francisco, Feb. 19.—Although ugly rumors of jury fixing, perjury and police inactivity are in the air follow ing a disagreement by the jury which heard evidence in the case of former police captain Michael J. Conboy, charged with killing Bernard Lagan, no direct charges are made against anyone concerned. The Conboy jury, when discharged late last night, stood 10 to 2 for conviction. Two of the jurors maintained that the evidence did not warrant conviction, and refus ed to change the views. Roosevelt Is in Demand London, Feb. 18. — Ex-President Roosevelt will deliver the Romanes lecture at Oxford University on May 18. This is the only engagement defi nitely arranged for his visit to Eng land, but he is promised a busy time if he accepts all invitations extended. King Edward is greatly interested in the coming of Mr. Roosevelt, and in addition to entertaining him at Buck ingham palace, will attend some of the other functions at whicl^the American will be the guest. He will be joined in London by Mr. Fairbanks. Cleveland, Feb. 19.—After a fight begun 15 years ago and waged at vari ous times by former Mayor Tom L.

T ; — PEARY IS DECORATED I H«u«(ou Girl Score« u Great S in llerlla. Helena Lewyn, a Texan girl, Is one of the latest of the American ‘invad ers” to make an impress on muslc-lov- ing Germany. After four years of study in Berlin, supplementing her work since childhood at her home, she made her professional debut and scored a distinct success, which she has accentuated since by her concerts. So favorable were the criticisms that she has been offered a number of pro fessional engagements in Europe, which would occupy three years, but she has declined them to accept an invitation from Prof. Damrosch to play in New York at his spring festival next April. She has been the pupil of Godowskl and has studied compo sition under Stillman Kelly, an Amer ican who has added to his reputation by his work in this country. After her first appearance on the public stage In Berlin she gave, by request, last fall concerts at Homburg, Baden-Baden and Bad-Xauhelm, at each of which she was enthusiastically received. Her concert in Berlin at the end of last month attracted much attention from the masters, and they declared that the brilliant promise of her early years is being well fulfilled. She has a reper toire of extraordinary length and va riety, considering her youth—she is in her twenties—and few women students have had the reception that has been accorded her. Her technique has been pronounced almost flawless, her execu tion brilliant and sentimental. The young woman is from Houston, where her family lives. Her concerts have been attended by many of the Ameri can colonies here and elsewhere in Germany, and they felt a pride in the newest success of their compatriot. Miss Lewyn is a typical western girl In size and strength, which is of no small aid In the rendition of some of the heavy, more difficult movements of the old composers.

Peary, discoverer of the North Pole, had the experience today of being dec orated by a foreign scientific society and vituperated by a fellow explorer and countryman. Furthermore, it was announced that cungress may aupply funds with which the American who has been farthest north will lead an expedition to the Antarctic seas to lay claim to territory discovered nearly 1U0 years ago by an other intrepid American and over which no flag has yet been flown. The Italian Geographical society is the organization that has conferred the decoration on Commander Peary. Secretary Meyer, on whom the ex plorer called today, announced that if it was decided to have Commander Peary head the expedition that will lay claim to Wilkes land on behalf of the United States, President Taft may ask congress to provide the funds for car rying out the expedition. In view of the interest now attach ing to the search for the South Pole, Wilkes land haa suddenly become of importance. Neither Secretary M^yer nor Com mander Peary would give the nature of their conference, which occupied more than an hour. It ia not improb able that the secretary explained to his caller reasons tor defeat in congress of the attempt to have the explorer hon ored with the rank and pay of a rear admiral.
