THE COURT DEFIED

Kansas City A. R. U. Sends Judge Foster Word to Go To. Declare They Will Xot Obey His Order to Appear Aiiflf. 6 and Answer Con tempt Proceedings. AXOTIIERMOVE ON THE A. K.U. Milchrist at Chicago Charges Directors with Contempt. Debs Publicly Announces He Has Had Enough of Strikes Omaha Sympathetic Action Spreading. KANSAS CITY. Mo., Aug. 1. Most extraordinary action was taken at to-night's meeting of the American Railway Union at Argentine, when four hundred Santa Fe railway employes, who were recently summoned to appear before the United States Court at Topeka, flatly refused to obey the mandates of that court. During the recent strike the strikers were served with copies of restraining orders from Judge Foster's court at Topeka enjoining them from trespas3ing or molesting the company's property. In addition they were notified to appear in person at the meeting of the court at Topeka Aug. C and answer to the complaint against them. In the rush fr work during the heat of the strike the men were unmindful of the summons. To-night the near approach of the date caused a discussion in the A. It. U. meeting. Secretary McFadden was finally authorized to send the following; letter to Judge Scarritt. of the United States Court at Topeka, and It was sent: "Sir In behalf of myself and other men at this point who have been served with returnable orders made on the ilrst week of August, I beg leave to say we are not conscious of having violated any Jaw and we do not feel Justified in paying railroad fare to answer them in person, nor will we employ an attorney. If the decrees of" the court can be Invoked against us. with no more Justification than in the present case, then our boasted Justice and liberty is simply a jug-handled affair, and we will not attempt to resist it. You will find us at Argentine whenever you want us. Very respectfully, "J. S. M'FADDEN, Secretary." The action of the court is awaited with much Interest, displaying, as It must, a phase of jurisprudence rarely witnessed. DKIIS HAS EOl CiH OF STItlKl'S. Director of the A. It. I'. .ow Churned with Contempt. CHICAGO, Aug. 1. "I will never again be connected with any strike organization." said President Debs, of the American Railway Union, to-day. "Thi3 strike has developed the fact that the sentiment of the people of the country is against strikes, and that the government stands ready to put down such movements at the point of the bayonet. 1 shall hereafter advise all workingmen to seek redress by the ballot." . Debs arrived from Terre Haute this mornIng, and was met at the depot by a committee from the American Railway Union. He went immediately to Uhllch's Hall, when a directory meeting was held and arrangements made for the convention tomorrow. Assistant Adjutant Boyle, of the Illinois National Guard, said this afternoon that he had been informed on President Debs's author'ty that the Pullman boycott would be officially declared off to-morrow. Adjutant Boyle added that all troops will be withdrawn by to-morrow night. District Attorney Milchrist has filed a supplemental information in the Debs contempt case to Include the directors of the A. R. U. in the charge of violating the order of the court. The directors proceeded against are James Hogan, William K. Burns, R. 1. Goodwin, J. F. MoVean and M. J. Elliott. They were the cabinet or advisory council of the four officers of the union, and when Debs, Keiliher, Rogers and Howard were arrested and placed in jail for contempt the directors took charge of the strike and boycott and conducteu ail the affairs of the union. The supplemental information contains all the allegations of the original information against Debs, and, in addition to that, it sets forth that the work of promoting the strike and boycott was divided up and particular branches of it placed in the hands of committees. Debs and Howard had charge of the department of publicity and promotion, Rogers, Burns and Goodwin of meetings and speakers, while Hogan. possibly assisted by others, :ent and received the telegrams and looked after the correspondence. While one of the officers or directors might not have known personally of the acts of the others, they were still responsible, the information says, for the acts of all. Since the attachment was Issued against Debs, the district attorney declares, the directors have continued to send out orders by telegraph and by others means to extend the strike, without regard to the order of the court. The Information therefore prays that they may be brought into court-to answer for contempt. omaiia strikc sritnAimt;. lnrUtfiKT llotmew Tied lp nml the City Meat Supply Running Low. OMAHA, Neb., Aug 1. Eight hundred men employed In the packing houses at South Omaha Joined the butchers' strike to-day. All the houses were affected and only a few cattle and hogs were killed. Several hundred more butchers quit the packing houses this afternoon, making the number involved 1,200. and indirectly double that number. The situation Is serious, as all the plants must soon close and cut off Omaha's meat supply. At the Cudahy plant there are about seven hundred men out. The place is practically deserted, although there was a small force at work In the beef and hog killing department. About two hundred cattle were killed to -day. Just before noon the committee called on the Cudahy house and submitted a scale of wages and proposition as tu what the men desired to have. It means a general advance in all classes of labor. The committee also visited all of the other houses and submitted the same proposition to the managers. Inasmuch as there is one section which states the men would not go to work until all grievances had been settled in Chicago. St. Jouis and Kansas City it was unnecessary for the managers to say whether or not they would accept it. The managers of the packing houses are greatly exerciser over the situation. The demands are: "First-That all employes De reinstated to their old position without prejudice. "Second U e. as a part of the Butchers National Union, do refuse to work until grievances are settle! in Chicago, St. louis and Kansas City.

Grievance Committee In Se!on. ST. LOUIS. Mo.. Aug. 1. A grievance committee of the Missouri Pacific and Iron Mountain railroad employes from the different divisions of those roads are in the city and have been In session most of the day. Representatives of the brotherhoods of railway trainmen, engineers and telegraphers are meeting with the committees. Those present at the'meetlngs preserve the most secrecy as to what business is being discussed and what grievances will be presented to the management of the two roads. It is rumored, however, that the dispatchers of the roads represented have teen refjU'Sted by the railway management to leave the orders they are members of, and that this is one of the objects under discussion. Three Would. tie Train Wrecker. CINCINNATI. Aug. 1. John Keefe. Walter McCue and Henry Dresbach, alia9 Herman Grosebeck, were brought here today from Hamilton and bound over in Ox each. They were leading strikers at Hamilton, where they attempted to wreck an excursion train July 4. William George saw them fix a switch so as to throw the train. George then rushed out to flag the train and saved it. but the three prisoners stoned and beat him so that George is still laid up. The three prisoners have been concealed in a house in Hamilton ever since July 4, when Judge Taft Issued an order for their arrest. Detective Rooney and deputy Archambault finally located them and will have w'tnesses here for their hearing next Saturday. C1h Miner A I no Out. MASSILLON. O., Aug. 1. A delegate convention of the striking Masslllon district miners will be held here on Friday. The clay miners employed by the Masslllon Stone and Fire-brick Company have gone out on strike, demanding 10 cents additional a ton.

It is rumored here that eight Russian war ship3 with troops aboard and large stores of ammunition have left Vladivostock, a seaport town in Asiatic Russia, on the sea of Japan, and that they are coming under sealed orders. The Intention of Russia in this move can only be surmised, but it is not doubted that the orders to the Russian gunboats is to protect her Interest In Corea at any cost. 1:35 p. m. In consequence of the declaration of war upon China, proclaimed by Japan yesterday, the Chinese Minister will leave Toklo to-morrow. The Japanese flag was hauled down from the consulate here to-day.

PITTSBURG, Aug. 1. The House committee on armor plate Investigation, consisting of Congressmen Amos J. Cummings, chairman; J. P. Dolliver, J. F. C. Talbott and D. D. Money, arrived here today, and after a short rest went to Homestead and made a trip through the armorplate department of the Carnegie plant to witness the different processes for the purpose of assisting them in making their report to the House. The several departments were gone through and a thorough explanation made of the workings. In th-3 afternoon the most interesting tests were made. J. E. Buck, one of the informers, attempted to demonstrate the truthfulness of his testimony before the ordnance board. He told the board that he frequently manipulated the testing machine to make It show greater tensile strength in a piece of steel than the steel really possessed. He claimed that by this manipulation he could raise the figures at least six thousand pounds to the square inch. He was given leave to-day to prove his assertions. Two pieces of steel were cut from a plate and he took his choice of one. Adjusting it in the clutches of the testing machine he pulled the levers and then began running out the gauge. The metal stood a test of 60,130 pounds to the square Inch. Then tester Frank Pullman, an employe of the company, adjusted another piece in the machine. The same performance was gone through with and tne steel . snapped under a pull of 53,630 pounds. There was A general laugh, as Buck had claimed to be able to Juggle the machine and make it show 20.000 more than it should. He promptly demanded another trial, and it was cheerfully given him. A second test showed practically the same result, and Ruck had failed to make good his boast. The informers had claimed that by running the machine fast or slow a higher or lower tensile strength could be secured. A tet piece was turned down for two pullings. On the first pull at the slowest possible speed It pulled 91.830. On the second, at the fastest speed, it pulled 91.870. The ' committee was completely satisfied. The committee left for Washington at 8:10 this evening. Their report will be made in a few days, but none of the members would say what it would be, though all admit their satisfaction with what they had seen and explanation of the olficials. HA I HON JIM Thinks He Can Arrange Matters with Jackson in Five Minutes. NEW YORK. Aug. 1. Champion James Corbett, who arrived on the Majestic today, when seen by a representative of the press was enthusiastic oyer the reception j he was given in Dublin and London. I T never knew,' he said, "what a cheer j from the heart meant until I struck Dublin. I have seldom been happier than I ! was when I played for the benefit of my uncle s church in the west of Ireland. I saw lots of poor people there, and how they make out in winter time is a wonder to me." "I am here now," Corbett said, "and I want to see Peter Jackson right away in New York. I am determined io fight the man, but I must not talk any more through the press. I'll have a business conversation with Jackson ani I am sure we will be abie to arrange matters In rive minutes. I have no preference for Jacksonville and I am willing to concede a good deal in Order that the tight may come off." PETITION NOT IN HOOTS.

CHICAGO'S LIMBER DISTRICT VISIT ED II Y WAVB OF FIKC. One of (he niggest Lumber Firms In th World Darned Ont nnd a Score of Other Suffer. CHICAGO. Aug. 1. The lumber district of Chicago was to-night visited by one of the most disastrous fires in its history, and the loss will probably foot up between $1,200,000 and ll.C00.0UO, although it will be twenty-four hours before the damage can be estimated with accuracy. The following concerns were entirely cleaned out by the flames and everything contained In their yards has been utterly destroyed: S. K. Martin Lumber Company, loss $."i00,0uO; Wells-French Company, car builders, loss $500,000; Perley, Lowe & Co!, lumber, loss $143,000; Shoemaker & Higbie, lumber, loss 1123,00); John Spry Lumber Company, loss $25,000; Edward Ulnes & Co., Conway & Co.. cedar posts; W. B. Palmer, cedar posts; Whitcomb Cedar Post Company, Siemens & Halske, manufacturers of dynamos. The burned district Is about six blocks (three-quarters of a mile) from east to west and about three blocks (threeeighths of a mile) from north to south. The greatest portion of the district bounded by Blue Island avenue, Lincoln street, the river and Ashland avenue was burned over and forty acres of lumber yards are rothlng but smoking embers. The loss on the Siemans & Halske plant was estimated by one of the foremen to be &00.000, but this is generally believed to be a great exaggeration. The other fire losses are: Conway & Company, $G0,000; Edwin Hines Lumber Company, $1,800; Farnum Foundry Company, $2,800; Chicago stove works, $150,000; Barbour Asphalt Company. $GO,0(t0; Columbia elevator. $1,300; Santa Fe elevator. $2,000; True & True, sash, doors and blinds, $30,000; Sandheimer & Co., lumber. $40,000; WakeHeld Rattan Company, $10,000; Keystone Lumber Company, $20,000; J. 13. McAdams, cedar posts, COO feet of dockage on the river, near Robey street; loss on cedar and hemlock posts, $1",X0. Previously reported, $1,659,600; total, $1,873,100. The lire was discovered by a watchman. He saw a blaze on the outside of the fence on the east side of Lincoln street near a shingle shed belonging to S. K. Martin & Co. He turned In an alarm, but before the first engines arrived the shingle shed was a mass of flames, which had communicated to the surrounding lumber piles. The Martin yards are 2.500 feet long by 300 feet wide, and the flames originated in exactly the right spot for the strong northwest wind which was blowing at the time to carry them through the entire length and breadth of the yards. The wind drove the flames so fiercely that the first engines which arrived were utterly helpless, and call after call for additional help was made until over fifty engines and three lireboats were at work on the fire. It is not likely that even they would have counted for much had not the wind died away after the fire had been burning an hour. The course of the flames was southeast and east for the first forty-five minutes, and they literally licked up everything In their path. Piles of lumber, laths, shingles and cedar posts were swallowed up with an appalling rapidity, and for a time It seemed as if the entire lumber district of the city, which stretches another mile to the south and as far to the east of the burning yards, must be destroyed. The wind, however, suddenly changed at 9:20 o'clock and began to blow from the south, and with much less violence than before. The llames started rapidly north again, and burned back to a line lev?l with its starting point. The sudden change in the direction of the flames caught several engine companies unprepared, and the men were compelled to run. No engines were abandoned, but three of them had close calls, horses and men narrowly escaping death. The tire boat Yosemite was at work in one of the slips when the direction of the lire changed, and the tongues of flame which shot over her made it necessary that she be removed at once. When an eiTort was made to start hsr up it was found that her steam was so low that the boat could not be moved with any rapidity, and the flames were swooping down on her at a fearful rate. The men frantically pushed her off with poles and boards, and she finally crawled out of the slip, with no more damage than a severe scorching in several places. Tne loss of C. K. Martin & Co. is estimated by Mr. Martin to be $&.00O. He said at midnight: "1 had in my yards 35,000,000 feet of lumber, easily worth $S00,0M). A ie-' culiar phase of the thing is that at midnight to-night all my Insurance, amounting to over $t)0o,000, wouid have lapsed. I had made arrangements to have it renewed to-morrow, but between midnight to-night and noon to-morrow I would have had no Insurance. The fire caught me Just five hours before my Insurance was out, and inside of an hour all I had was gone." Mr. Man In declared that before the fire his lumber yard was the largest in the world, "but it don't matter," he continued; "I'll have another just as large within a short time." The fire boat Geyser had also a close call. but ran through the flames which leaped over the slip and escaped unharmed. Two of her men. John McCann and Thomas Freeding, were badly burned while fight.'ng the fire. A large "Slamsed" hose which they were holding got away from them and knocKed both men over the side of the boat on a pile of burning cedar posts a few feat away. Their injuries are not fatal. In addition to the firemen injured the following casualties occurred: OTTO RAFTER, fell off a lumber pile; back broken and will die. UNKNOWN MAN, struck on the head by a flying cap from a fire engine; knocked into the river and drowned. PETEIt rilELAN, pipeman, inhaled hot air and badly burned.

The Journal correspondent saw Major Halford this evening at the Paxton Hotel. He said: "You may say for me to the Journal and the people of Indianapolis that my injuries mean two weeks of enforced vacation. My leg is badly cut and my side is badly contused. To-day I have been suffering" much pain as the result of the shock and the natural effects of my Injuries. The anaesthetics have made me slightly ill, but there are no discouraging symptoms, and none anticipated." Mr. Halford had been receiving friends all day. Telegrams have rained in from over the country. The physicians predict his gradual recovery in the absence of any unexpected developments. BOB FORD'S JSLAYEli.

I have, for some time, felt that my advancing years have placed an obstacle In Its way such as I could hardly hope to surmount.

RAKED THE STRIKERS OVER THE COALS AT DES MOIXES V E ST E It C AY. Democratic State Ticket Chonen by Acclamation ItecatiMc one Sought the OHlce Thin Year. DES MOINES, la.. Aug. 1. There were no Democrats looking for otfice when the Iowa State Democratic convention convened here to-day. There were four hundred delegates present, and they named the following ticket by acclamation: Secretary of State H. II. Dale, of Polk. Auditor John Whitfield, of Guthrie. Treasurer L. W. White, of Wavne. Supreme Judge (long term) John Cleggett. of Cerro Oordo; snort term. Edward W. Mitchell, of Fremont. Attorney-general J. D. F. Smith, of ("hroke. Railroad Commissioner W. L. Parker, of Osceola. Clerk of Supreme Court T. Jl. North, of D'llas. For Supreme Court Reporter J. J. Shea, of Council Bluffs. The convention assembled at Calvary Tabernacle. J. M. Parsons, temporary chairman; delivered an address, saying that Coxeyism was McKinleylsm carried to a logical conclusion. After dinner Governor Boies was chosen permanent chairman of the convention and made a hot speech. After reviewing the conditions leading up to the Demc.atic victory of 1832 and arraigning the Republican party for the policy It pursued while in power, ex-Governor Boies continued: "That victory was not won without definite and oft-repeated promises by those who claimed to speak for the party as to what would be done if ths party success crowned our efforts. There is now no middle ground on which it can cast an anchor. Protection, if right in one instance, is right in all. He who is willing that his party, as such, shall retrace a single step from the position it assumed in who would surrender an iota of the principle for which he then fought and won, is not a Democrat. We are standing at the end of more than three decades of a most intense protective policy on the part of the government. And what Is the result? Trusts and combines on every, hand; the fruits of labor taken from the many and given to a few; millionaires counted by the thousands; homeless men by millions; rumblings of discontent from every quarter, but loudest and longest in the very centers of the most highly protected industries of the land; strikes and lockouts everywhere; armies of idle men gathered In our cities are marching over the country, vaunting their destitution in the face of the world, with here and there the howl of the Anarchist, the knife of the assassin and brand of the Incendiary emphasizing with fire and blood a discontent that has become almost epidemic and threatens the stability of the government Itself, until the last resort of a nation, an appeal to. the military arm for protection, has been a public necessity. "It would be cowardly evasion of truth to attempt to conceal the fact that the Democratic party has reached a crisis in its history that threatens Its welfare, if not its life. Within the party councils I want the voice of crimination and recrimination hushed at once, and I want the Democratic members in Congress to agree upon tae very best measure of tariff reform it Is possible to pass, and make It the law of the land without further delay. If it does not come up to the requirements of that pledge as I read it, I will not lay down my arms; I will help to keep the wheels of reform In motion until all that has been promised Is faithfully performed. This is my view ot the duty of Democrats in this crisis, both in and out of Congress. By an explicit resolution in its last national platform the Democratic party is committed to 'the us? of both gold and silver as the standard money of the country, and to tne 'coinage of loth without discrimination against either,' but it is expressly declared that 'the dollar unit of both metals must be of equal intrinsic and exchangeable value, or be adjusted through international agreement, or by such safeguards of legislation as will insure the parity of the two metals. To my own mind the unqualified language of that plank requires affirmative action on the part of the representatives of the party by which it was adopted. SYMPATHY STRIKE MUST GO. "There is another subject which I am gl:.d to say is not a political Iss::e between any of tht? great part'es of the country of great importance to the welfare of the Nation. I rsfer, as you will surmise, to the unprecedented troubles In labor circles during the last few months. I know, too, that every one of these men who 13 an adult citiz?n of the United States is clothed with precisely the same power under the constitutions of the States and the Nation to help mold, and cause to be executed, th? laws or the land that Is possessed by the haughtiest millionaire that ever cast a vote, and I believe as firmly as I believe in my existence tbt if their organizations are to be preserved, and continue to be of the least practical benefit to their members, they must see that they neither violate the law themselves nor instigate, aid or abet others to do so. With every loyal citizen of the land who is a loyal fnend of its labvers I have been shocked by the flagrant breaches of law that have characterized so many of the recent labor strikes of the country. I am still more amazed to know that within the clicks of some of th?s. unions are men who yet condemn the authorities, both State and national, for interposing the military arm of each to put an end to conditions that had reached a complete stage of anarchy and overthrown in some localities every semblance of law and order. ' "If the.e men are not bereft of reason they must realize by this time that 'the strike' as conducted In many places in the recent past Is revolution. Is anarchy, is the incipient stage of civil war. It is vain to assert that the scenes of riots, incendiarism and bloodshed we have witnessed are not the work of members of any of the unions, but instead that of the lawless elements of the cities In which they have occurred. If this is literally true it cannot relieve the question of responsibility for conditions that their own acts made possible, and which without such acts would never have existed. There is another phase of this question of Immeasurable importance to individuals. It is the question of the Inherent right or wrong of what some labor leaders term a 'sympathetic strike, and was forcibly prcienud in the 1 ullman strike. Tho sympathetic strike must go or the unions that engage in It will be destroyed, and with it must go forever the scenes of riot and carnage that have characterized so many recent strikes, or the organizations responsible for them will b ground Into dust under the iron heel of an, awakened public sentiment." The speaker then devoted his attention to State Issues, charging the Republican party with misrule and extravagance, and particularly condemning it for Its liquor legislation, which he denounced as disgraceful and ridiculous. He advocated ihe establishment of .county insane asylums after the plan adopted in Wisconsin, and declared that the Republican mrthods of hand'ing State institutions were wildly txtravagant. In conclusion the speaker said: "It is at least the duty of the Democratic party to continue to lator for better govcrnrunt in Slate and Nation alike, to be true to itself, true to its principles and loyal always to the best Interests, the hii;test possil.l? good of the people of when it forms so conspicuous a part." The resolutions adopted reaffirm the platform of the rational Democratic convont'on of 18L, and demand of Democratic representatives in Congress to re-il'-'t-m tht? rd edges made to the people, and for all time make an end of paternal and class legis-lation. The present unfortunate financial stringency and its disastrous effect upon labor is credited as the direct lesacy of a Republican administration, and attempts to shift the responsibility upon the democratic administration is denounced as futile and absurd. The financial plank is as follows: "With tho national Democratic convention of S'?2, we hold to the ue of both gold and silver as the standard money of the country, and the coinage of both gold and silver, without discriminating against either mtal or charge for mintage, but the dollar unit of coinage of both metals must bo of equal intrinsic and exchangeable value, and we demand that all paper currency shall be kept at par with and redeemable in such coin. And we favor such legislation as will faithfully carry out these pledges to tile people." The resolution? demand such change In national legislation as will authorize the ePctlon of i'nited States Senators by direct vote of the people. Just and lib-ral Pensions-to deserving veterans are favored. The platform favors the repeal ' of the present rrohil-itory law and adheres to local option. The platform denounces the A. . A. The minority report favored bimetallism and demanded such legislation on the p.irt of the government as will increase th coinage of sliver and maintain It equal In viliv with gold. A roll call was ordered on the minority report and it was defeated by i;''7 to Culloiti'M Man I'hooen. CHICAOO, Aug. 1. The Republican State central con mittee met here this afternoon. John It.
