BULLETS PROTECTED
M0YER FROM IN
SURGENT MINERS
(Continued From Page One.)
Incessant firing of the deputies they
scattered throughout the city shouting
for dynamite. Several armed men went
to the Stewart mine and carried toward
the union hall several boxes of the ex
plosives. They were prevented from ap-
proaching the building by the deputy
sheriffs.
Sheriff Drlscoll as soon as violence
started ordered all available assistance
to the scene. As soon as the strikers
were forced down the street from the
hall by the fussllade the sheriff stepped
forward and shouted that he wanted 600
deputies.
No Aid for Sheriff.
No one responded to the appeal and
the sheriff began to dispose his men as
best he could.
Mayor Duncan wired to Governor Stew
art at Helena.. The mayor told the gov
ernor later that the city was under con
trol but this message scarcely had been
sent before dynamite was set eff under
tne union headquarters.
Many insurgent miners ' went to the
tops of nearby buildings directly after
they were first repulsed and opened fire
on the deputies In Miners hall. The offi
cers retreated for a time to the inner
rooms of the building then sallied to a
window and fired on the besiegers and
retired.
Tried to Dynamite Building.
This warfare in the darkness between
house tops and windows did not last
long the miners scattering to obtain
dynamite. :
The revolting members of the miners'
union were persistent In their endeavors
to blow up union headquarters. The first
charge of dynamite having failed to de
stroy the building a second and a third
mine was exploded having been planted
while deputies were chasing dynamiters
from some parts of the structure. The
third explosion blew- out the front of ihe
building which had been denuded and
looted during the first outbreak more
than a week ago. president M. McDonald
of the newly organized union finding
that he could not control the men In their
attack had thousands of handbills printed
hurriedly and distributed about the
streets calling on all in the name of the
union to disperse ana go home.
Secession Cause of Trouble.
Although the miners who had been at
outs since the seceders broke up a union
parade June 13 and wrecked the inside
of Union hall had been quiet for a week.
President Mover feared trouble tonight.
He had been in Butte several days trying
to induce the revolters to return to the
union. His endeavors had failed and the
insurgents had organised an independent
organization.
Mutterings against officers of the West-
ern Federation of Miners had been heard
and Mover today asked Sheriff Driscoll
to have guards at the hall to prevent any
interruption of the meetings which was
to outline new overtures of peace.
Many of the 2000 men had left the old
union declaring they no longer would
adhere to its officers and endure what
they termed unfair treatment announc
ed that any efforts to entice back any
of the seceders would be met by active
Interference.
The revolters declared they had been
unduly assessed to help Michigan copper
miners ana that tney naa been disfran-
chised In a recent union election because
they had refused to comply with the or
der of the union to show their cards at
the entrance of the mines on going to
work. This disfranchisement had caused
the Insurgents to wreck Union hall de
stroy the ballots carry away the union's
safe dynamite it and take all the papers
ana valuables it contained.
When President Moyer arrived and
took active charge ot the situation he
asked that all of the officers of the Butte
union elected while the revolters were
disfranchised should resign and the offi-
cers consented. This did not ameliorate
the insurgents.
After the outbreak of June 13 Governor
Stewart came to Butte and studied the
situation. He asked the war department
at Washington about the possibility of
obtaining federal troops in case condi-
tions became worse. The men quieted
cown at tnat time ana arter a couple of
houses of union officers had been dyna
mited there was no further violence of
consequence until tonight.

WANAMAZEE UPHELD UNIONS.
Said Refusal of Recognition Was In
sane Act.
(Auociatea Press Report.)
PHILADELPHIA. June 23. "It's an
Insane thing not to recognize organisa-
tions of labor" said John Wanamaker
today in giving further testimony before
the United States commission on Indus-
trial relations.
Mr. Wanamaker made this statement In
reply to a question whether employers
should recognize labor unions. On the
general quesUon of unionism he said he
believed labor has suffered "frightfully"
in the past because of poor leaders but
added that he is seeing a better class ot
leadership coming in.
Mi. Wannamaker believed that the de
partment of commerce and labor should
be the courts of last resort in labor dis-
putes. One of the things he found
urine: in union labor unions was limiting
the number of those who want to learn
trades.
Speaking of capital Mr. wannamaker
said John D. Rockefeller Jr. "made a
great mistake wnen ne put rresiaeni
Wilson in the position of sending troops
into Colorado."
Discussing: nubile ownership as a means
to reduce Industrial strife Mr. Wana
maker said he was "an absolute believer"
in government ownership of public utili-
ties. "I believe the government should
own the railroads" he said. 'It would
prevent conditions that have existed in
the New Haven road and In the Bock
Island system. Government ownership
would bring 1-cent postage because the
government would own the -means for
carrying the mails."
Thomas E. Mitten chairman of the ex-
ecutive committee of the Philadelphia
Kaoid Transit company explained to the
commission the co-operative plan under
which the company deals wita its men.
Under this plan 22 per cent of the gross
earnings is set aside for the payment of
wages pensions and death benefits to
motormen and conductors and It has re
sulted in a yearly Increase In
