(CHARLESTON, W. Va., Feb. 16.— ‘Three men were killed in @ fight be- tween striking miners and « posse under Capt. Fred Lester on the moun- tafm near Mucklow to-day. The dead men were members of Capt. Lester's foree. The fight was still on thie after. noon. The tnen killed were: Frank Bobbeit, bookkeeper at the Mucklow Mine of the Paint Creek Collieries Company; Rat- oMff and Vance. Copt. Lester, an officer ef the West Virginia National Guard, who has been employed by the Patnt Creok Colltertes Company to command its mine guards, learned this morning that @ force of atriing miners and their sympathizers were marching toward Mucklow to at- tack the force of deputies under Sheriff Bonney Hill, stationed at that pl Tenter gathered his forces and, ing over the mountains, came a: the miners near the summit of t ridge. A sharp engagement followed, In which the miners are said to have fought desperately, It is not known how many of them were killed or tn- jured. Capt. Lester's men held their round and when the news of the battle came out of ithe sirike country this afternoon the fight was still in Progress. The scene of the fighting is far up in the mountains, and the telegraph wires having been cut, the news was taken by courter on horseback to @ telephone station ten miles away and telephoned into Charleston. Gov. Glasscock {= expected to order the State militia to the scene, WALSH, FYE AND NEEL ARE NOLTED (Continued from First Page) cuss a report that some of hie friends have been negotiating with the Dia- triet-Att rney relative to @ confession. The Inspector is elderly, not robust, and alarming to “ta family and friends, Since yesterday the name of a man on the bench of one of the lower courts of Manhattan has been brought into the weandal. He Is said to have been a sort of adviser to the “Big Three,” composed of a police official, a politician and an uptown business man. They are be- leved by the District-Attorney to have been the ultimate graft receivers, ‘The first witness before the Grand Jury to-day was Patrolman Eugene Fox, the self-confessed grafter who has related in detail how he collected’ for Harlem and turned his collections over to Capt. Walsh of the East One Hun- Grea and Twenty-sixth street station He was followed by George A. Sipp, former proprietor of the Baltic Hotel, and Thomas J. Dorian, who became general manager of the old Baltic after Sipp sold it to a syndicate. Fox, Sipp and Dorian testified te a specific grat collection and payment, on April 5, 1911. This pay- ment has been traced from Dorian to Bipp, from Sipp to Fox, from Fox to Walsh and—in part—from Walsh to Sweeney. Other witnesses were waiting to add further corroboration to the evi- dence of Sipp and Dorian, should it have been required by the Grand Jury. In addition to the witnesses to de heard in connection with the charges against Walsh, others were in the Distrist-Attorney’s office, prepared to testify against Charles Dubeliier and “Doc” Mater, accused of bribing a prospective witness case Was not Jury.

All information gathered by this department relative to grafting will be turned over to Mr. Whitman for action.” It was reported at Headquarters that there probably would be developments before night in the shape of the sus- pension on charges of several police oMcials. At any rate, there wos more activity around Commissioner Waldo's office to-day than at any pervious time since the police scandal began to grow rtance, No action has been net the four captaiy: men- yy Jimmy Purcell, the 1ormer tn his testimony before the ast Friday, has not been in the district m by Purcell for fifteen years, a 4 Corcoran has not been in the district mentioned by Purcell for eleven years, ‘The policemen said by Purcetl to have the prospect of his tmprisonment is! five years from disrepuwbdle hotels in| berger began rounding up the ends of | an investigation into graft which began | said Mr. Waldo to-day, “ig working on | w that Capt.

Commissioner Waldo said to-day that it fs @ police custom to place the in: ‘spector in charge of the adjoining dis- trict in charge of the district from which another inspector is removed under sus- Pension. The appointment of Dwyer is temporary. He has the complete confi- dence of Commissioner Waldo and why he was assigned to cover the ground which has been under the juris- diction of Sweeney. ‘The Sixth Inspection District takes in the West One Hundreth atreet pre- cinct, with tts collection of disorderly houses north of One Hundreth strect @nd east of Columbus avenue; the West One Hundreth and Twenty-ffth street precinct with similar houses and many dives and dance halls and «aor- derly hotels; the Kast One Hundreth and Twenty-sixth street precinct, one of the liveliest uptown; the Lenox ave- nue and St. Nicholas avenue precincts, each with its own crime problema, and the Went One Hundreth. and Fifty-unc- ond etreet precinct, wich is quiet and orderly. Police circles are figuring on the man Mkely to be asmgned to the Sixth In- spection District when Dwyer gets it into shape that is satisfactory to the Commissioner. It ie not thought that any of the old inspectors will be sent there. More credence is given to the | prospect of the promotion of a Cap- | tain, already in the district, to an in- | apectorship, with an assignment to the Sixth. | PLANNED TO PAY FOX $10,000 | TO GO TO PRISON. | A plan to bribe Patrolman Eugene Fox to “stand the gaff and serve a term in Sing Sing is part of the story the District-Attorney presented to the | Grand Jury to-day. The facts were ob- | tained from Fox and corroborated by | Capt. Walsh. According to their state | Ments, the conspirators hoped to «cep | George A. Sipp out of the State by @ combination of bribery and intimidation until it became apparent that they: had overplayed themselves by getting two disreputable women to make affidavits of a revoltng nature reflecting on Sipp. Then, it being apparent that the Dis- trict-Attorney had landed Sipp, Walsh and others began to work on Fox. ‘The patrolman was approached by trusted negotiator who advised him to say nothing and “take his medicine.” | This man had in his pocket $3,000 17 | vanknotes, “Here is part of a fund,” eaid the | man to Fox in effect, “which is being raised to take care of you. It will amount to at least $10,000. Lawyer will be provided for your defense. All you have to do le keep your mouth shut and stand trial. If you are con- victed, take your medicine and go to Sing Sing. “Before the trial the fund will be de- posited In a bank or a trust company in such a way that {t cannot be toucned by anybody but you. While you are tn prison the interest will be pald to your wife and daughter. It will be enough to support them, and you won't be away for a great while. When you get out you can draw the principal nob except us will ever know where it came from.” FOX's WIFE WOULD NOT CON- SENT TO PAID MARTYRDOM. Fox, in his confession to the District- | Attorney, natd the plan looked good to him. It would save him from being | branded a “‘squealer," Insure a living | for his wife and daughter while he was jin prison and furnish him with a “stake” when he came out to face the world again. But he overlooked one | important factor in the deal. | That was his wife, She wouldn't hear _—_—_—_—_—____ One trial of Harris Eye Glass Service will make YOU one | more Harris eye g | thusiast. | Absolute satisfaction is | guaranteed or your money | is refunded. | Harvis glasses cost $2; or more “ot.
