Hell's about to pop in the copper country,” Moyer announced, he stepped from bis train. “The miners are thirsting for revenge, but I hope to return in time to prevent them from doing anything to injure their cause.” | TELLS STORY OF ATTACK IN HOTEL ROOM Asked concerning the attack on him, and his expulsion, Moycr sald: Organizer Tanner and I were in our room in the Scott hotel, at Hancock. Sheriff Cruze called. He demanded that we accept for the federation the funds the Citizens’ alliance nad collected for the families of the Christmas eve panic “I replied that the strikers themselves had raised $6,000, and thie was sufficient; while we were grateful for the proffer, we could not jaccept the money Cruze left. Five minutes later the mine whistles began to blow, as if it were a prearranged signal, and 150 members of the alliance in- vaded our room.
