''SASKATOON, Snak., June 23.
- Emergency wires strung east of here
today carried word of a storm of
cyclonic proportions which swept
east Saskatchewan and Manitoba last
night, snapping telephone and lele-
tng buildings. The storm started
near Predenbury, Sask., traveling
east to Dauphin, Manitoba, moved
back toward Winnipeg and turned
south. Only meagre details were re
ceived here.
According to reports, petitions for
the recall of Sheriff Charles K. Ter
rill were circulated throughout the
bounty today. The movement Is al
leged to be backed by the V. C. T. U.
and Ministerial associations of this
city and Ashland. Kor over a year,
threats of recall have been hanging
orer the sheriff, and, the present one
Ik tald to be the outgrowth of this
agitation.

SUNDAY
HOOT GIBSON in
'SURE FIRE "
The correspondent saw men wound-
6(1 almost to death, kicked around In i
the Bcorching sun In dusty roads. He
saw men chased through fields like
'rabbits by shouting persons who open
ed fire, once catching him acciden
tally between two fires. Surrounded
by ai med men, he saw a knifo plung- i
ed into the throat of a wounded men j
w ho In his dying breath gasped a plea
"in the name of my mother, in the :
name of your mother, In the name of j
our God, give me water," only to re
celvo laughs and jibes such as "were
you're going you won't see water," as '
a reply. I
Few of the dead could be positively
Identified. Most ot them had been I
'rifled of all effects. After lying piled ;
In the morgues yesterday, they were
embalmed last night. Scores watched
the processes all through the night,
making unprintable remarks about
the bodies.
That today would bring official ac
tion of some kind was undoubted.
That this action would bring little in
the way of results was the prediction
of every one in touch with the situa
tion. The order of Governor Small last
night to hold J. 000 men of the mili
tia in readiness in Chicago was greet
ed on the streets here with sarcastic
comment. A member of the police
force told the correspondent that If
troops were Bent here he'd take "the
night jnllcq force and clean them
out." Inquiry developed that lie was
the night police force himself.
The request of the governor for an
official report brought more sarcasm,
the gist of which seemed to be that
there was nothing to report officially.
Karly this morning several Newspa
permen were privately Informed that
plans were afoot to burn a number of
mines rfhich In previous years bad la
bor troubles.
All that remains of the Lester mine
Is a heap of ashes, for it was set on
fire shortly after the attackers cap
tured It.
Karly today Sheriff Thaxton told
newspaper men that the situation
was well in hand and there was no
danger. That was the only official
statement in the early hours of the
day.
H ERR IN, Ills., June 23. (By the
Associated Press.) The massacre of
non-union miners In the woods near
the Strip mine ot the Southern Illin
ois Coal company, where they were
employed, was the act of a mob which
got beyond control of the cooler ele
ment, which was attempting to escort
the captives to Herrln to "show them
oft to the boys." according to in
formation gleaned today.
The leaders, it was said, finally
were compelled to yield to the cla
mors ot the mob that the prisoners
"beat It." The fleeing men thereupon
were shot down, beaten to death, and
one was known to have been hanged.
Although a number of the miners
Shudder at ' the ' slaughter, all say
"they got Just what they deserved."
As soon as the 4 4 Btrlp employes
surrendered yesterday morning, a
cry went up for the lives of the cap
tives, persons who say they wore eye
witnesses. The cooler elements, how
ever, advised that tho prisoners be
marched into town, paraded before
the townspeople and then sent away.
The cooler element marched Just be
hind the prisoners, who were at the
bead ot the procession, and the dis
orderly element flocked behind and
beside them.
There -were cries of ' "beat It,"
which grew Into a chorus, but the
leaders withstood tho demand until
they arrived at a wooded section
about three miles from here. There
the clamor Increased and the mob
prossed around the fear stricken
prisoners, some of whom mumbled,
apparently in prayer.
Witnesses say the leaders, feeling
unable longer to resist the crowd's
clamor, said to the prisoners: "Yes,
you'd better beat It."
Then followed the massacre.
How many of the prisoners realised
that It was to be a flight of death can
not bo known.
Between the road and the woods on
tho right side, there was a barbed
wlro fence. Moso of the prisoners,
probably) thinking vaguely that It
would be something to have the fence
between them and the mob, began
climbing through the fence. They
had difficulty with their suitcases.
There were shouts of "drop your
suitcases, you won't need them."
which appealed to the humor of the
Jeering mob. Jlost ot the prisoners
dropped their suitcases and scrambled
through and scurried Into the woods.
The shooting was under way and the
killing was on throughout the woods.
Men were running and dodging and
the crowds were following and shoot
ing at them. When one fell, the
crowd closed In and fired a volley Into
the prostrate form. The throats of
two were cuL As the men were shot
down, crowds gathered and watched
them breath their last, Jeering and
scoffing.
One of the wounded men to whom
the correspondent talked in the
woods, said he was a steam shovel
worker. The men who crowded
about him. said:
"You ought to know better than to
take the bread from Union men's
months.
