VIOLENCE MARKS BUTTE COPPER STRIKE Union Official Predicts General Walkout Before Aug. 1. K# I nitr4 Prrtt BUTTE, Mont., July 23.—Scared by fire and wracked by violence, Butte today sat atop dynamite. After nearly three months of comparative peace, the strike of 5.000 copper miners and smeltermen was strafed with serious trouble. A week-end of disorders was climaxed shortly after midnight by burning of a portion of a mine yard. It came after two other mine fires, an explosion, mob stonungs and gunfire. Threat of a general strike and martial law followed on the heels of the violence. Reid Robinson, union secretary, predicted his miners would be joined in general strike by 15,000 other workers before Aug. 1. Company Asks Protection Counsel for the Anaconda Copper Mining Company appealed to city and county officials for better protection of its multi-million dollar properties. Unless its demands are met, it is expeeted the company will ask Governor Frank Cooney to order national guardsmen to patrol Butte. The company protested officials have allowed continued and widespread violence without interference. A large building, used to store ice for cooling the three-quarter-nnle mine shafts, was set afire in the Parrot mine yard. It burned to the ground. Two large machine shops nearby were endangered. Two Anaconda Company employes were attacked yesterday afternoon at the Leonard mine. Rifle shots were fired through their auto and they were stoned. They escaped injury. Union Pickets Accused Earlier, Charles Staples, another company employe, was injured when struck by stones. Buildings in the Stewart and Original mine yards have been burned. A railroad trestle was destroyed by flames. Dynamite blasted out a section of a precipitating tank flume. High tension w ires, dyna-; mos and transformers have been .short-circuited. The company accuses union pick- , ets and their sympathizers with these depredations. Robinson, miner , spokesman, accused the company of deliberately destroying its ow'n property to discredit the miners.
Martial Law Near By Vnitcß Prctt MINNEAPOLIS. July 23.—Four thousand national guardsmen and members of the naval reserve were poised today to place Minneapolis under martial law. Governor Floyd B. OLson indicated plainly as new efforts to halt a strike of 7.000 truck and taxicab drivers failed that military rule was only hours distant.

NORTH DAKOTA FEUD BECOMES TESUF, WITS Legislature May Reject Both ‘Governors’ for Langer Subordinate. By United rress BISMARK. N. D, July 23.—North Dakota s “civil war” resolved itself today from the stage of martial law into a contest of wits and political power. A runaway legislature, convened by its own motion and defying authority, planned a friendly impeachment of A osed Governor William K. Lara vigorously vindictive imp- .iment of acting Governor Ole Gison and similar action against a half-dozen other state officers. The strategy was to remove all dispute over authority between Langer and Mr. Olson, leaving a Langer subordinate to run the state. A house committee was to report late today on a method of impeachment procedure. Legislative leaders planned to appoint another committee to investigate Langer’s conviction. Attorney-General P. O. Sathre, a Langer adherent, was asked for an opinion on the legality of the special legislative session and a definition of its impeachment powers. Constitutional experts expected him to rule that the lower house, meeting without the senate, can impeach without a call from the Governor.
