The latest stand of the anti-\ntuiioiilssi was vaguely hinted at two\ndays ago, but llie movement on the part\nof the alliance seemed so absurd to the\nthree or four thousand unionists in the\ncamp, and Its enforcement wrought with\nso many difficulties thai it was not taken\nseriously. Tysen S. Dines, a Denver attorney, and one of the executors of the\nStratum estate, is here In conference,\nwith the citizens' alliance leaders, and it\nIs announced that he is preparing a\nform which will he sent to every merchant ami business mnn in the district,\npledging them not to employ any person\nwho is affiliated wllh a labor union.\nNo person who works for a living will\nhe exempt and tlie resolute annihilation\nof unionism in the country is predicted\nby members of the citizens' alliance and\nthe mine owners' association. This is\nconsidered the most drastic step yet\ntaken by the alliance since it secured\nthe upper hand in the district and its\nenforcement will affect 3,000 men and\nwomen now affiliated with the various\nunions. Among the unions that will he\naffected are the clerks, cooks and waiters\nbartenders, carpenters, electricians,\ntrainmen and stone and brick masons.\nThe unionists assert they will fight the\nmovement, to a flniHh.\n' General Bell Issued the following\n\u2022statement, today regarding the raid on\nthe Victor Record office and the des-\niniciion of the newapaner plant; \"I\ncannot be too emphatic in my condemnation of thlB unmerited act. Such actions as this reflect upon the military,\nbecause martial law prevails. As military commander I am responsible for\nthe cleaning up of this crime, if it Is\nposslhle. I am aware that editor Kyner\nwas bitterly denounced and threatened\n'and accused of selling out. when his editorial apepared asking the Western Federation of Miners io call the strike off.\nThe socialist element of the Federation\ntook the principal stand in this thing.\nHowever, whoever the perpetrators of\nthe crime may be, they will land in the\n\"bull pen\" If arrested.'*\n\"Do yon think that union miners\n'wrecked your offico because of your editorial on Wednesday, advising that the\nstrike be called ofT?:\" editor Kyner was\nasked today.\n] \"Unquestionably I do not,\" he replied.\n\"I do not think the editorial was the\ncause of the outrage. We had hints and\nrumors of a plan to wreck the office\nthree davs ago, before this editorial was\npublished. I asked major Naylor, the\ncity marshal, for protection. He was\nv\/rillmr io give It, but said lt would not\nhe necessary and advised me to fear\nnothing. As a matter of fart, the union\nmen agree with the sentiment in the editorial. After Its publication all the union men I saw commended my position\nund many came to me for that special\npurpose.\"\nF W.

The\ncommittee on surety has made a demand upon district attorney Trowbridge\nthat he remove his deputy .1 C Cole and\nnlso requested Lhat S. R Crump be ap-\nimlnted to fill the viumcy.

The order, recites,\n'that a reign of terror and lawless violence has existeded for months' past\nencouraged and carried forward by certain evil inspired persons, resulting' in\nwholesale assassination of many peaceful and law-abiding citizens.\"\nThe proclamation further asserts:\n\"That the peace of the community Is\nthreatened, lives and property menaced\nand mobs and violence threaten to overrule the law.\"\nThe order In conclusion says that the\nPortland mine has \"For a long time\nbeen engaged in employing and harboring large numbers of dangerous, lawless\nmen, who have aided, encouraged and\ngiven comfort and assistance to those\nwho have been so guilty of crimes and\noutrages, so that said mine Is a menace\nto the welfare and safety of the good\npeople of said county and a hindrance\nto the establishment of peace and good\norder.\"\nThe Portland is the only large mine in\nthe district that has continued in operation since the trouble at Independence\non Monday. The Portland Oold Mining\ncompany through its president James F.\nBurns, who is not a member of the Cripple Creey district mine owners' association, conceded tbe demands of the union\nwhen the strike was Inaugurated last\nAugust and has given employment to\nabout 500 men. General Bell also issued\na proclamation giving notice that \"All\nviolation of the law In the way of in-\nJury to property and all acts of violence\nof any and every sort must henceforward\ncease.\"\nThe committee appointed hy general\nBelt to Inquire into the records of miners\nunder arrest reported to him a list of 92\nunion miners with (the recommendation that they be deported. General Bell\naccepted their report and announced\nthat the men would be sent out of Teller\ncounty as soon as special train crews\ncould he arranged for.\nBURNS WILL APPEAL.\nDenver, Colo., June 9.\u2014The closing of\nthe Portland mine at Victor liy order of\ngeneral Bell, presumably, will be the\nmeans of reaching the federal courts\nwith a case to test, the power of governor Peabody to vest in the miltiary absolute power tn the district declared to\nbe under martial law. The Portland G.\nM. Co., being a foreign company, incorporated under the laws of Iowa, it is\nstated by eminent lawyers that any act\naffecting It may be reviewed by United\nStates courts. James F. Burns, president of the Portland Gold Mining Co.,\nis in Denver to consult his lawyers.\nMr. Burns, It Ib stated, will ask that\nthe military be withdrawn from the vicinity of his property in Victor and that\nhe be allowed to protect his men when\nthey go back to work. The military\nauthorities, are credited with saying ir\nBurns sues (or an Injunction an attempt\nwill be made to arrest Mr. Burns himself on the criminal charge that he Incited riot\nRECORD OFFIC WRECKED.\nVictor, Colorado, June 9\u2014Eight unknown\nmen, armed with shot guns, rifles, pistols\nnnd sledge hammers entered the office uf\nthe Victor Record last night, ordered the\nmen to throw up their hands, broke up\nthe machinery, and then told the men\nto get out of the district as fast an they\ncould. The Record yesterday editorially\nadvised the miners to declare the strike\noff. There Is no clue, to the Identity of\nthe men. George Kyner, proprietor of the\npaper was at lunch und foreman Walter\nSweet, who was in charge of the men.\nGeneral Sherman Bell hus appointed\nmajor Thomas E. McClelland provost mnr-\nshal for the district and he has caused\na number of arrests to be made, among\nthem being several union men employed\nby the Portland Gold Mining Co., which\noperates the Portland mine. Tbe company\nhus continued In operation ever since the\nstrike was declared. A sensation was created when it became known that Christ\nMiller, union leader and member of tlie\nOoldfleld city council, had been captured\nill Canon City. At colonel Deckburg's request be was brought to Victor. Miller\nIs chnrged with having flred the shot that\nstarted the riot at the Victor mass meeting on Monday.\nA squad of mounted infantry left today in pursuit of 55 union miners, said to\nbe encamped In the Reaver creek region\njust east of tbls elty.

It Is considered remarkable\nthat only one mnn was killed In the Dunnville battle. The contesting forces were\nabout two hundred soldiers under the\npersonal command of general Bell and 65\nminers, who were behind rocks and trees\nIn the hills.

The ofllcial despatch\nfrom rear admiral Wlllsufl, dated June\n7th, reports thnt the enemy lias been\nbombarding Porl Arthur intermittently\nfrom the sea, but does not mention serious operations trom the land side.\nThe general staff seems certain that\nthe enemy's guns have not, yet been\nbrought up. An official despatch from\nPort Arthur lo one of the ministry says\nthat only one regiment of Infantry participated at the defence of Kin Chou.\nThe admiralty Is not. disposed to\ncredit the story that the Port Arthur\nBtiuadron has left Port Arthur, or the\nrumor of lis juncture wllh the Vladl-\nvojtoeU squadron, although this Is evidently part of the program. If it comes\nto the worst the Porl. Arthur squadron\nwill go ont antl give battle.\nThe lnck of knowledge concerning lhe\nstrength of the force sent south continues. The war office whicli seemingly\nis not fully advised In regard to general\nKouropatkln's plans, says the commander-in-chief's ability lo detach an adequate force will depend on the number\nof troops at general Kuroki's disposal,\nconcerning which apparently there Is\nno accurate Information, although the\nbelief Is that the Japanese commander\nhas about 48 Imitations at Feng Wang\nCheng, and 3(1 In the vicinity of Taku\nShan. The last Intelligence received at\nIhe war office is to lhe effect that the\nJapanese have abandoned their advance\nnorth of Feng Wang Cheng and wesl or\nSluyen. The Russians are holding Sin-\nyen and Saimatsza.\nWhile declining to furnish specific Information on the subject it seems certain that the Russians nre now in wireless communication with Port Arthur.\nBy no other way could the rocelpl of\nadmral Wlltsolf's despatch of Juno 7th,\nreporting the bombardment of Porl\nArthur from the sea be accounted for.\nSHBUiINQ THE RUSSIANS.\nA Number of Japanese Warships Participate In Ihe Firing.\nLiao Yang, June 9,-Six warships.

He advocated an appeal\nthe United States to act with Great\ndrltain in the matter . Sir Charles asked if ln tbe face of the facts admitted\nby tbe Belgian government the time hud\nnot come to sweep away all the difficulties and force the Belgian government to\nact by stronger measures than mere\nwords'and despatch with reference to\nthis horrible scandal.\nOther speakers supported sir Charles'\nsuggestion to appeal to the United\nSlates. The under secretary for foreign\naffairs.earl Percy, said the Brltlshr government bad thought the Congo government would readily recognize tbe necessity for a searching inquiry, but had\nbeen disappointed. Was It possible, be\nasked, in the face of the Congo government's own testimony, to avoid the conclusion that the refusal to make an\nInquiry showed that the Belgian government was afraid of revelations or\nwould not reform the system which permitted such atrocities? The Congo\ngovernment's later proposal to Investigate the charges made had altered the\nsituation slightly, but an unsatisfactory\nfeature of this proposal was tbat the\nCongo government did not know whnt.\nform the Investigation would take or\nwhat tribunal would carry out nny reforms which might be determined nnon.\nKarl Percy, at the end of a long\nspeech, reviewing the situation in the\nCongo, charged officials with permitting\n\"insensate, Inhuman cruelties to he practiced In order that they might profit by\nthe collection of rubber.\"\nIt was In the conviction that the fair\nfame or western civilization was at stake\nthat the British government appealed\nnot less to the powers than to the Congo Itself. The British government hoped tbe officials would prosecute tbe Inquiry which they were solemnly and\npublicly pledged to.\nBrussels, June 9.\u2014It Is understood that\nthe Congo state government considers\nthe British proposal of a special commission to Inquire Into Its administration as unacceptable and contrary to its\ndignity of independence.\nREPAIRING!

The percentage of not revenue\nto cost of construction in the live stales\n' on the continent of Australia is as follows:\nQueensland (1D02-BJ 1.80\nVictoria o\\m-2) fcW\nNew South Wales (1002-^) 8.52\nSouth Australia (1002-8) H.37\nWest Australia (i!HU-2) il.fiO\nAverage percentage for continent..2.67\nIn New Zealand ttie state railways in\nllie yoar ending Mareh 81. 1908, paid U.3\npor cent, on the rust of construction,\nonr corporation railways would be ruined\nIf they had so little lo show on the year's\nwork.' There would ho no money fur\n(dividends, In Australia there is no need\nt<> make freight rates pay dividends.

Tiie acquisition of tho railways hy the govern-\nmem was due to rottenness of the flrl-\nv.-iie managentent as exposed hy tho parlln- !\nmontrl'y Inquiry of 1873. This investigation j\nwas conducted by the late Edward Las- ;\n|kol\\ a pnirlfitlc Herman statesman, who |\ngendered the government, to which lie\nWOS generally opposed, valuable assistance\n(in carrying the measure for the purcnose\ntot the lailwayu. '\nIn the rotirse of tho Investigation he\nvisited the United States, and studied tiie\nrailway question with cure. Mis conclusions were summed up hi a brief statement he made at the time. \"You In Ameri-\n\"Ott must sooner or later acquire your\n\"railways and place them under public\n\"management. It will -come as a neces-\n\"slly, for nntur.il force--*-* nre at work which\n\"will compel you to take this ctiurae,\"\nAs the methods ot railway management in\nCanada are the same as iu the United\nstales, the statements of Mr. Lnskor up;\nlily wllh equal forco on ibis side ut tho\nboundary.\nAll classes of itie people of Germany\nseem to regard the railway question as\nfinally and satisfactorily settled. This is\nthe conclusion uf,those who have to do\nwith the practical questions of operation,\nas well as those who, like university professors, study It from an academic point\nof view. A professor of Halle, who In\n1877 seriously questioned the expediency\no fstate owned railways, as the result or\nexperience lias been converted into an\nuncompromising adherent of the system.\nBefore the slate acquired lhe roads the\nmovement was opposed with precisely the\nsume arguments that ok- heard on this\ncontinent todny, Hut the advocates of\nthe reform, by sane, strong and persistent\nagitation secured lis adoption.

Mr. Blakemore took the stand at\n11 o'clock and his evidence in chief was\nnot concluded when the court rose for\nthe day at. -UO.\nln the hands of bis counsel Mr. Blakemore made a clear and admirable witness and be lost no time In the telling\nof his story, at leaBt one effect of which\nwas to explain much of the testimony\nalready heard, and to show the direct\napplication thereof. The views of the\nwitness as to what occurred at the time\nof tbe explosion at Coal Creek, the cause\nand his reasons for his opinion, were\nstrongly put In terse language. Mr.\nBlakemore was the first manager of the\nproperty and opened It up originally. He\nwas present at the inquest after the accident and has heard the evidence adduced at. the present trial. His opinions\ngiven yesterday were based on these\nthree matters together wilh bis general\nknowledge as a civil engineer and mining\nengineer. He declared that the accident\nat No. 2 and .1 mines was the result of a\ndust explosion and that all the evidence\nobtainable pointed that way, and that\nway only,, and he pronounced the mines\nIn question \"dry and dusty\" and the\nmanner of watering wholly unsafe and\nInadequate. Time and again, Mr, Taylor, in referring to the evidence already\nIn, referred pointedly to Mr. Drinnan's\ntestimony and repeatedly asked Mr.\nBlakemore, that assuming the facts to\nbe \"as stated by Drinnan\" what was his\nopinion, etc. Presumably Mr. Blake-\nmnre's evidence In chief will be concluded this morning, when Mr. Bodwell\nwill commence his cross examination.\nWhen court first opened yesterday,\nJohn Frederic Wilks, a coal miner, was\ncalled, hut bis examination and cross\nexamlnntion elicited nothing particularly new.\nAt 10.55 Mr. Taylor called William\nBin k em ore, who said be was a resident\nof Nelson, and a mining und civil engineer. Asked to state bis (nullifications\nal length, the witness said he had been\nengaged in coal mining for the past 30\nyears. He obtained his certificate trom\nthe British government as a mine manager nfter being articled to his father,\nwho had been a mine manager for 55\nyears. After taking a science course be\nhnd charge of snyetat properties In finc--\nlaud wilh his father as consulting engi-\ntt&tA, He had been asslstanl engineer\nfor llie Midland railway for three years,\nand for ihe Northwestern for one year.\nAfter holillnc several important positions tn the old country be came to Canada in ISii: us the manager for the Dominion <\"mii ciir.pany at Cape Breton,\nin Nova Scotia, and later took charge or\nthe Crow's Nc-'il Pass Coal company's\nnff-il.v. nnfl opened up the mines now\nbeing Investigated. In 18fl7\u00bb till June,\nIS!*!*. He was succeeded hy James John-\nRlone. He hft-rf vt felted and Inspected\nwary lnrge working coal mines in England and ''Vales nml In Ihe United Slates,\nIn England be had to deal with mines\nthat were both wet and dry and gaaneoua\nas well as non-gasseous properties. In\nMay, 1902, he had gone to Fernle as\n.soon as he heard of the accident as he\nhad brought many of the miners west\nwith him when he came and knew their\nfamilies. At the urgent request of the\nmen he had taken part tn the Inquest,\nwhich lasted about two weeks. He was\nquite familiar with the coal seams in\nNos. 2 and '& mines having opened them\nfrom 300 to 400 feet in different places,\nBoth seams were bituminous about 6\nfeet thick, of tender friable coal wtth a\nstrong shale floor and a similar roof.\nThe coal was very porous and easily\ndrained of water or gas,. One marked\nfeature was the Irregular wavy form of\nthe floor, the result of which was the\nformation of numerous basins in the\nways and entries. From the first the\nseam yielded water and gas, but dried\nquickly, especially going down the\nmain entry.\nTaking up tbe question of coal dust\ntbe witness explained that it was made\nby mining and blasting and by sprinkling from cars along lhe ways. It came\nfrom no other considerable cause under\nordinary circumstances. The dust was\ncarried about by the ventilating air current and was deposited all over the\nworkings. Cars used should be practically dust tight, those ln use at Coal\nCreek were not so. Witness further explained how bad loading would tend to\nIncrease dust, adding that mixed coal\nand shale dust was explosive. The result of attrition was to render still finer\nfloating dust. Pillars and ribs were\ncontinually perishing in the old workings, thus forming more dust.\nMr. Blakemore traced the discovery\nof dust as an explosive In coal mines\nfrom Davy and Faraday in 1845, up tu\nthe present time, pointing out that the\nwhole question had heen dealt with exhaustively hy the British Royal commission on \"Explosions from coal dust\nIn mines\" in 1891. The report ot the\ncommission now formed the text book on\nthe subject, and since it was issued,\nsome conclusions which the commissioners arrived at, which were dobuted\nby experts at the time, have been abundantly proved.\nThe line of Investigation followed hy\nthe commission are thus summarized:\n1, The circumstances of many explosions, and especially of explosions on a\nvery large scale, and covering a great\nlength of tbe workings, cannot he fully\nexplained by reference to flre damp or\ngas alone.\nII. The presence of coal dust and especially of fine dust, may be the sole cause\nof an explosion.\nIII. If coal dust is in sufficient quantities It will certainly extend the effect\nand increase tbe Intensity of an explosion caused by other means.\nIV. Flre damp in small quantities (so\nsmall as not to he dangerous in Itself),\nmuy be highly dangerous in the presence of coat dust,\nThe main conclusions arrived at included the following:\n1. The danger of explosion In a mine\nIn which gas exists, even In very small\nquantities, is greatly Increased by the\npresenoj' of coal dusi.\n2. A gas explosion in a fiery mine may\nbe Intensified, and carried on Indefinitely\nhy coal dust raised hy the explosion\nitself.\n3. Coal dusi alone, without the presence of any gns at all, may cause n\ndnneerqiiB explosion if Hgutted l>v a\nblown-out shot or othcrvlnlent Inflammation. To produce such a result, however, the conditions must he exceptional,\nand are likely lo he produced only on\nrare occasions,\n4. Different dusts are inflammable, and\nA\nMELLOW TASTING\n-SMOKE\nHE tobacco plant\nis extremely sensitive to sou and\nclimate.\nTnere are certain localities in\nthe world \u2022where\ntobacco -grows. Because of the\nclimate and. soil of these districts the tobacco of each is\npeculiarly adapted to certain and\ndifferent uses.\nThus the Burmese leaf\nmakes a good cheroot \u2014 from\nVirginia and Turkey we get\ngood pipe tobacco\u2014but for cigar\nfillers I know of no locality like\nthe Mamcaragua ci.-trict, in the\nProvince of Santa Clara, Cuba.\nThe superiority of this tobacco is due entirely to the sou\nand climate. When I tell you\nthat I select the best leaves of\nthis best favored spot\u2014you can\nsee the reason for my Pharaoh\nbeing a superior smoke -\u2014- one\nwith an aromatic fragrance \u2014\nand delicate mellow taste. loa\n\u2022yGRANBV.PQ.\nne genuine \u00bb;;,\u00ab w. pV\u00bb\nnlew branded > * '** *^\nconsequently, dangerous in varying degrees; but It cannot he said with absolute certainty that any dust is entirely\nfree from risk.\n5. There appears to be no probability\nthat a dengerous explosion of coal dust\nalone could ever be produced in a mine\nby a naked light or ordinary flame.\nMr. Blakemore explained how further\nexplosions would result by the distillation of gas from coal dust meeting a\nfresh supply of oxygen. The conditions\nmost favorable for an explosion would\nbe the existence of dry dust, within the\nreach of high temperature. Had witnessed many small dust explosions in\nNova Scotia, these came from blown-\nput shots, and went off in a series of\npuffs. Black blnsting powder would produce gas momentarily.\nExplosion was defined as \"a sudden\nincrease in tbe pressure of gasses, by Uie\nsudden expansion of materinl, gasses\nor otherwise, in the vicinity.\"\nA \"dry nnd dusty\" mine was defined\nas one which contains very considerable\nareas of dry eoal dust such being the\nnatural condition of the mine. This\ncould be aggravated artificially.\nThe witness was taken over No. 2\nmine by districts, with reference to admitted damp and dry areas\u2014outside of\nDrinnan's evidence\u2014nnd he declared\nthat No. 2 was within the description\nof a dry and dutsy mine. As a whole\nnone of the wet areas would stop the\ncourse of a dust explosion, established\ntn the dry areas. Having heard Drinnan's evidence as to damp and dry places\nIn No. 2, the witness said he would not\naller his description of the mine as a\ndry and dusty one. ,\nThe proper removal of the dry dusi,\nand the proper system Of watering both\nof which, the witness snid were necessary to make the mine safe to work In,\nwere described in detail and the methods\nadopted nt Coal Creek mines were condemned as out of date and inadequate,\nand could not be said to he effective In\nany sense. Watering by cart, and powder cans was in vogue, 25 or 30 years\nago, hut had long since been abandoned,\nMr, Blakemore said that from all the\nevidence al. his disposal he was convinced tbat tbe accident, at Nos. 2 and 3\nmines on May 22nd, 1902, was a coal dust\nexplosion and nothing else. His reasons for so thinking were: Proved existence of large areas ot dry coal dust:\nabsence of sufficient areas of dampness\nor wetness as would change the general\ncharacter of the workings. Evidences\nof coking In its various stages, which\ncould only have resulted from distillation of gasses containing coal dust,\nwhich lay in the path of the explosion.\nAntecedent conditions on the day of the\nexplosion, absence of evidence as to tbe\nexistence In any pari of the mine of a\nsufficient (plantlly of gas to have produced such an explosion. The entire improbability, amounting to impossibility,\nof such a body of gas being in existence\nwithout some one discovering It. The\nabsence of evidence of an interruption\nof the vcutillating appliances of the\nmine, which alone could account for\nsuch an accumulation of gns.\nDrinnan's evidence as to lhe blower\nof gas on McDonald's level .showed thai\nthe flow there was so slight thai it was\nImpossible that ll could have caused\nthe explosion, The finding of lhe bodies of tbe men at their working places\nIn the direct line of the air current prevents the idea lhat gas from the blower\namounted to sufficient to make explosion. Given gas only in section 3 of the\nNo. 2 mine, the destruction of overcasts, etc, as descrilied would be nn\nImpossibility. From liiiiinan's evidence\nlhe cnn.-\" of the force exerted In and\nalong McDonald's level was a dust explosion.
