AN SUBSCRIPTION---$5.00 PER ANNUM CONDEM THE STRIKE Business Men on the Iron Range Hold Mass Meetings. MANY MINERS RESUME WORK Scores of Constables and Special Po- licemen Are Sworn In and Protec- tion Is Promised—Hundreds of For- eigners Returning to Europe. Duluth, July 2i.—The firm stand taken by the merchants at Hibbing and Chisholm has discouraged all at- tempts at intimidation by the strik- ing miners. Mass meetings of the citizens were held at both towns and stiong resolutions passed condemning the strike and the stpike agitators and demanding protection for the men who want to work. The result was that many of the men have gone back to work, especially in the Hibbing dls- trict, and scores of comstables and special policemen are patrolling the streets and the locations. - The merchants of the range have agreed not to extepd any further credit to the strikers and the brewers have promised to do all in their power to prevent blindpiggers from securing supplies of liquor for sale among the strikers. Forelgners are flocking through Duluth on their way East, where they will ship for Europe. Literally hun- dreds of tickets have been sold to the strikers, who are taking advantage of the shutting down of the mines to pay a visit to their homes. The ore dock workers in Duluth and Superfor show signs of a desire to arbitrate and those at Superior are expected to go back to work at old terms as soon as any ore I ready to be shipped. WAR TO THE BITTER END Trust Will Not Compromise Trouble on Iron Range. New York, July 2,—The strike of the workmen in the ore mines in the Lake Superior fields is receilving the serious attention of the officials of the United States Steel corporation. Willlam E. Corey, the president, Has the handling of the strike under his supervision and his lleutenant, Thomas F. Cole, president of the Oliver Iron Mining company, is on the lookout at Duluth and Two Harbors. Announce- ment i3 made that the corporation will stand out for what the officlals con- sider common justice in its fight with the Western Federation of Miners. The organization has outlawed itself, the officers cf the corporation hold, in disregarding the terms of its own res- olutions before they had been in the hands of President Cole _thirty-six hours. It is stated that the programme adopted is to fight without compro- mise what i{s termed the small per- centage of men In the ore fields who are actually members of the Western Federation. The steel -corporation does not belleve that the men have any grievance and point to the fact that only last January an increase of wages was voluntarily granted to the men. Since then, it is stated, there has been no complaint from the men and no trouble was anticifiated until the demands of the committee were recelved. The whole trouble has been stirred up from the outside by pro- fesslonal organizers, according to the steel officlals, who also say that less than 10 per cent of the men became members of the union. Just what effect the strike will have on the iron and steel situation the trade has not yet figured, out. The company has large ore supplies for its present needs, but if the strike were prolonged much embarrassment might be caused after the closing down of navigation. Ore Fleet 18 Tled Up. Cleveland, July 2/.—BEighteen big ore carrying vessels are tied up here as the result of the strike of ore han- dlers at upper lake ports. Big fleets are also tled up at other Lake Erfe ports. Inquiry among furnace oper- ators develops the fact that there 18 sufficlent ore on hand at most of the plants to keep them in operation for some time to come. Steel Laborers Leaving the Range. Superior, Wis., July %l—As a re- sult of the strile at the iron mines lahorers are leaving the range in large Aumbers, many of them buying tickets for their old homes In Italy, Hungary, Finland and other parts of Europe. Three hundred passed through here during the day on their way East. VIOTIMS OF THE COLUMBIA Latest List S8hows Ninety-three Un counted For.

New York, July §}—The first gen- eral strike In twglve years of the United Hatters of JAmerica, involving about 20,000 men throughout the country, is now threatened against the open shop, which the National Fur Felt Hat Manufacturers’ association proposes to intraduce. The open shop declaration is contained i a resolu- tion of the manufacturers to abolish the unlon label. Conferences between the executive committees of the union and the asso- clation, held at the Broadway Central, at which attempts were made to settle the trouble, have thus far been futile. The manufacturers have asked for further time and will make a final de- cision Friday. A majority of the man- ufacturers, it is stated, are against the use of the union label. President John A. Moffitt of the United Hatters of America would not predict whether there would be war or peace, but said that the situation was very serlous. It was stated for the union hatters that If the label is discarded the strike will take place on Aug. 1. QUARTER OF MILLION LOSS Victoria, B. C., Experiences Greatest Fire In Its History.

THEIR IDENTITY UNKNOWN Two Salling Vessels Lost Off Cleve- land During Storm. Cleveland, July 2 .—Two small sail- Ing vessels laden with ofl were com- pletely wrecked at the first blast of a squall. It Is belleved all on board went down. The identity of the boats is not known. The boats were about three miles out when they went down.
