EMISSARY OF FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT ON GROUND
Trinidad, Colo., Sept. 26. An armed
posse left here today for Ludlow in
an effort to rescue three strike break
ers who were captured by a mob of
striking coal miners last night. Sher
iff Grisham, who headed an earlier
posse in search of the captives last
night, returned after several hours,
representing that he had found no
trace of thein.
The strike breakers, all negroes,
were taken from a stage near Ludlow
on their way to the mine at Hastings.
Surrounded by a mob of strikers they
were led In the direction of the Tnit
ed Mine Workers colony at Ludlow.
Striking coal miners at the United
Mine Workers camp at Ludlow for the
sicond time held up the Hastings
hack at Ludlow, upon the arrival of
Colorado and Southern train No. 1,
this morning, and compelled all pas
sengers to alight and commanded the
driver to drive the empty stage on to
Hastings. The men taken ofT were
V. E. Rose, superintendent of the
Colorado and Southeastern railroad, a
coal road that runs to the Victor-American
Fuel company properties: W.
B. Cunningham, a surveyor, and Thos.
Gibbous, coal inspector for the Rock
Island railroad. The strikers made
no violent demonstrations, according
to reports, but commanded the three
men to go into the depot and await
the next train for Trinidad and make
no attempt to go to Hastings.
A guard of strikers is patrolling the
railroad station at Ludlow to Intercept
all conveyances bound for Hastings.
Word has been received here that
the negroes who were taken off the
hack at Ludlow last night by armed
strikers wcje taken to the depot at
Ludlow .late this morning and placed
mi board a Colorado and Southern
train and ordered to go "back where
thev came from." They are said to
have been threatened with injury if
they came back as strike breakers.
Word has been received that James
B. Pearce, secretary of state of Colo
rado, and Ethelbert Stewart, emis
sary of the United States Department
of Commerce and Labor, will arrive
here tonight to inspect the situation.
International Vice President Frank
J Haves, of the United Mine Work
ers of America, when asked concern
ing the second hold-up by strikers of
the Hastings hack, said:
"I have not been advised of the oc
currence. I do not believe it. I look
upon the incident as a "frame-up" on
the part of the operators to injure
the cause of the miners. They have
dene it elsewhere, they are doing it
here." Referring to the present strike
situation, he said: '
"Ninety-five per cent of the miners
of Colorado are on strike and this
number is increasing day by day.
When we are ready to care for all of
them the rest of them will come
out."
May Close Saloons.
Boulder, COlo., Sept. 6. Sheriff
Busted today went to I.ayfayette, Mar
shall and other points in the northern
Colorado coal fields to investigate
strike conditions. He said that he
would either close all saloons in the
district or force them to close after
six o'clock every evening.
Will Visit Trinidad.
Denver, Sept. 26 Secretatry of
State James B. Pearce, ex-offlcio la
bor commissioner, and Ethelbert Stew
art, coal strike mediator, appointed
by the federal department of labor,
went to Trinidad this afternoon . to
Investigate the strike situation.
A statement issued today by F. E.
Gove, attorney for the Victor-American
Fuel company, declares that' "ex
cept for the increasing violence,
threats and intimations on the part
of the strikers, the operators are
content with conditions as they ex-j
ist today." I
The statement says that increased
forces are at work in the mines to-!
day and that about 55 per cent of
the normal working force of the mines
of Colorado are employed.
Gove adds: "The strike is entering
upon the stage of violence which in
variably accompanies disturbances of
this character. The strike leaders,
irrespective of their professed inten
tions, are directly responsible for
numberless acts of lawlessness, a few
only of which reach the reading pub
lic." i
The coal operators today entered
formal complaint with the local post
office inspector in connection with the
stopping of the Hastings stage today.
The operators assert that the stage
carried United States mail, and that
the strikers who stopped it were
guilty of violating the federal statute
against interference with the mails.
Before leaving Denver Ethelbert
Stewart is Bald to have expressed the
belief that the differences between the
miners and operators are "eVght" am
irusccptlble of arbitration.

GREECE MAY YET
CLASH WITH
TURKISH EMPIRE
London. Sept. 20. King Constan
tine of Greece, made preparations to
day to return to Athens. The Balkan
situation is regarded by the Hellenic
government as very disquieting. Tn?
king has decided to cut short his visit j
to the seaside resort of Eastbourne on
the south coast of England, and will
come to London tomorrow for a spe
cial conference with Sir Edward Grey
the British foreign secretary.
All Greek officers have been recall
ed for active service with their com
mands and many of the regiments
disbanded at the conclusion of the
campaign against Turkey are now be
ing immobilized.
The activities of the Turkish troops
are believed by the Greeks to lore-
to fore
shadow an attempt by them to recap
ture the port of Kavali, on the Aegean
sea, which cost Greece so much in
blood and treasure in her recent war
wilh Bulgaria.
Turkish officers now on their way
f-,m laia Minor to the province of
Thrace, openly admit that Kavali is
the objective of Ottoman aspirations.
In the meanwhile, Premier Eluthe
rlos Venizelos of Greece, is trying to
ferret out Turkey's intentions by
making a demand at Constantinople
for precise date on which the Otto
man government purposes to resume
the long interrupted peace negotia
tions. Creek official circles deride Bulga
rian denials of the reports that com
mon action is contemplated by Bul
garia and Turkey against Greece.
Some officials declare mai

Mr. Sulzer in the executive chamber
a copy of a letter from the Frawley
committee asking him to testify.
"I said to the governor," Baid Mr.
Peck, "what shall I do about it?"
"He said, 'Do as I am going to do, j
deny it.' " j
"I said, 'But I shall be placed under
i oath.'
He said, 'Forget it.' " i
After this declaration there was a
hurried conference of Governor Sul-
zer's counsel. Harvey D. Hinman took
up the cross-examination.
Richard Croker, Jr., testified this i

Mrs. Rosenberg's establishment," he
explained, "It was a girl named Mar

in her and gave her $10(1 so that she
might go home to her mother. Later
I gave Mrs. Rosenberg $800 more to
give to the girl. Marion Is now mar
lied and living a respectable life.
"Mrs. Rosenberg suggested that I
might be talked about If I were known
nt her place by my true name so I
uf-ed the first one which came into my
mind King."
