Four of those killed were In John Evans' saloon when it collapsed and they were burled beneath the wreckage. Two others were In a dry goods store, which was blown away and they were killed by the falling walls. Ed Peters of Dover was killed in the wreck of the hotel. The telephone e: change was demolished and two of the girls were seriously injured. Their names are not obtainable tonight. Mr. Blandenburg was the proprietor of @ large grain elevator and he was caught in the wreck when this was destroyed. He was serigusly injured. A rellef train was sent from Winona as ®oon as the news of the serious nature of the storm was received there and physi- clans wete soon busily engaged in caring for the Injured and maimed. The storm came updn the town with such suddennesy that it was filling the alr with debris of demolished buildings before the citisens fully realised the nature of the calamity. Many of those Injured received their hurts from flylng missiles, while others were caught beneath the wreckage of their business houses or homes and remained pinioned until rescued by. the rellef party. Another train will. leave for Bt Charles from. hester in the morning with provisions and clothing for those who are destitute and homels 8o far no reports have been received of any loss of life in the country adjacent to 8t. Charles. The storm, however, seems to have followed very closely the boundary line between Minnesota and JTowd, and damage to farm bulldings, dwellings and grein stacks, with injury to human beings and death to live stock is reported from several points in that locality. The fury of the storm, however, seems to have spent itself in St. Charfes.

PARKS CLAIMS THE EXECUTIVE BOARD All He Dewired from the Conventl KANBAS CITY, Oct. 3.~Frank Buchanan of Chicago won a final victory over Samuel Parks and his following this afternoon when he was re-elected president of the In- ternational Association of Bridge and Strue- tural Iron Workers over Hugh F. Donnelly of Albany, N. Y., by a vote of 4 to 4. After the eclection and while Mr. Parks and his delegates from New York were hurrying from the hall to catch their train for the east the regular order of business was suspended, while the convention unani- mously passed a resolution pledging full support to local No. 2, the New York walk- ink delegate’s union, and he departed amid a storm of applause. Parks claims a majority of the executive board. The convention convened In this city two weeks ago and each day has witnessed a bitter struggle for supremacy between the elements led by President Buchanan and Mr, Parks. Mr. Parks from the start as- serted openly that he would fight to the end for the defeat of the president for his ac- tlon In suspending local No. 2 for alleged irregularities He displayed a wonderful amount of personal magnetism In winning tes to his support and throughout ring has dominated it upon many important question: Today, however, President Buchanan won the upper hand, when at the morning ses- +| slon he succeeded In getting the convention to adopt a motion to use the Australlan system of balloting In electing all officers.

BRINGS BRIDE FROM EUROPE Otoe County Man Falls to Satisfy Swiss Authorities He fs Not Mar- ried Refused License, NEBRASKA CITY, Oct. 3.—(Special )—A marriage license has been fssued to Fred- erick J. Battensperger of Fremont county, Towa, and Miss Loulse Mants of Switser- land, and they will be married here today. Quite a story is attached to the issuance of the license;: some time ago Batten- sperger left this country and went to Eu- rope for the purpose of marrying Miss Mants. He could not prove that he was a single man and consequently could get no license. AMdavits from the county officers here were sent to him and every mea: employed to ald him, but to no avail. He and the woman then salled for this coun- try, and the marriage is the result. The bride cannot speak a word of English, but seems happy and contented. Nuekolls County Fair a Success.

What makes one doubt these suggestions is the known fact that the duke is wholly influenced by his wife, and that she is eminently sensible and without any extravagance whatever. The United States embassy secretary, Henry White, his wife and their daughter, Muriel, are staying this week at Drum- mond castle, the Scottish seat of the ear! and countess of Ancaster. This visit has caused considerable goessip In soclety, where it was currently reported during the summer that Muriel White had refused Lord Willoughby de Eresby, the eldest son of the house. The Ancasters are exceed- Ingly proud, and it is sald that they bit- terly resented the ill-success of their son's suit.

MEN WANT AN EIGHT-HOUR WORK DAY History of the Trouble in Colorado Mining Districts Which Shows igns of Coming to an Ent DENVER, Colo, Oct. 3.—8trikes and in' Cripple’ Creek distriets in Colo- rado have already —reduced the mineral production of the state this year at.least $2,000,000, and if the present conditions ob- tain until the end of the year the produc- tion will fall more than $6,000,000 below what it would have been under normal conditions. In gonsequence of the -ulke 1,000 sol- diers of the Colorado National guard have been doing police duty in Cripple Creek for four weeks, and as yet neither the mine owners nor the strikers show any evidence of weakening. The cost to the state of maintaining the military torce | In the fleld is estimated at $50,000 a month The unsettled conditions in the mining Industry are due to the fallure of the legislature to enact an eight-hour law ap- plying to mines, mills and smelters after the voters of the state had adopted a constitutiona] amendment favoring such a law. An elght-hour day had been generally granted at the mines and the Western Federation of Miners de- termined to enforce the same condition in mills and smelters. Strikes were inau- gurated last June at the smeiters in this city and the mills in Colorado City, and elght weeks ago 4,000 miners in the Cripple Creek dlstrict were ordered by the execu- tive officers of the federation to go on strike In support of the demand for an elght-hour day for mill and smelter em- ployes, which had been refused by the American Smelting and Refining company and the United States Reduction and Re- fining company, The miners obeyed the order, but reluctantly, as they had no grievance as to their own hours of labor or wages, and with few exceptions they have since continued on strike. Mine Owpners Bar Union Men. The Mine Owners' assoclation has an- nounced thet no further employment will be given to any members of the Western Federation of Miners. The Portland com- pany, which owns and operates a mill for the treatment of its ores, made agreements with the union and reopened its mines, giving employment to about 500 men. 'The Woods Investment compapy also continued to operate the Gold Coln and other mines, shipping the ore produced to its own mill, but ylelding to pressure from the Mine Owners' association, this company has now locked out all its union miners and joined in the asmociation's fight against the West- ern Federation Several companies are operating their mines with nonunion men. Officers of the Miners' unfon assert that the number at work is small, and that most of those em- ployed are laborers snd not experienced miners. Three weeks after the inauguration of the strike two men were murderously assaulted by unknown men, Governor Peabody then sent troops to the camp in response to a request from the Mime Owners' assoc tion, which represented that many of the strikers would return to work If guaran- teed protection, No violence has occurred since the soldiers took the fleld, but there have been many sensstional incidents )e- sulting from the actions of the military in making arrests and disregarding the civil authorities. Although martial law has not been declared. more than & dosen miners, including all the members of the executive committee In charge of the strike. have been arrested and placed in the guard house, otherwise known as the ‘“bull pen, some of them being held there more than two weeks. Judge Censures Sol n nmw proceedings District that the mili- oned only President Charles C. Kennison of the Vietor Miners' union has been charged with any crime. He was confined in the “bull pen" fiftéen days, contracting rheumatism, wnd Wwhen turned over fo Sherift Robertson the only offense charged against him was that of carrying con- cealsd weapons. The most sensational occurrence of this week has beéen the invasion of the Vietor Record office and the selzure of the news- paper's entire force, including Mneotype operators, because of the publicaflon of & statement that two soldiers on duty In the camp were ex-convicts. These prisoners were detained in the “bull pen' nearly twenty-four hours before charges of crim- inal libel were made agdinst them in court. ‘Three thousand busin men and citizens ‘of Victor sent a petition to Governor Pea- body for the recall of the troops. The gov- ernor refused, saying to the bearer: “The militia will 4ty In the strike region until'T am satisfied it is not needed.” Governor Peabody is Sued, Governor James H. Peabody was made the defendant today in two damage sults for $100,000 each, filed at Cripple Creek, by Patrick 8. Mullaney and Thomas F. Foster, union miners, who were arrested by mill- tary officers on duty In this camp and con- fined in the guard house for Aifteen ¢ays and were set at liberty last Wednesday after habeas corpus proceedings were 1instituted in their behalf. Adjutant General Sherman Bell, Brigadier General Chase and Major Thomas E. Mo- Clelland were also made defendants to the sults. Theplaintiffs allege that they were re- strained of their liberty, were subjected to hardships, privations, bumiliation and dis- grace by the defendants. It is assgrted in the complaint that arrest and imprison- ment pf the plaintifts were without prob- able cause and without legal process or authority or color thereof. The arrests, it is sald, were made as the resilt of malice, intrigue and conspiracy among the defendants and other unknown. Bults asking foi more than $1,000,000 in damages will be filed by all those who were imprisoned in the bull pen. Governor Peabody instructed Generals Bell and Chase, his representatives in’the fleld, not to aceept service on any process, civil or criminal. In addition to the troubles in Cripple Creek mining has been almost entirely sus. pended in the Telluride and Ophir districts, where about 1,600 miners and 700 men were calied out in order to enforce the demand for an elght-hour day. There have been no disturbances of the. peace in these places and no troops are stationed there. Hun- dreds of strikers have left the state, seek- ing work elsewhere. Mr. E.
