Declares That the Standard Oil Intsr- sate Are Not Law Respecting—De fend* MacGInnles—Heinz* Offers to Make Places for Mailed Men Wh* Worked for Amalgamated Company. Butte, MonL, OcL 26.—F. Augustus Heinze has made an Interesting state ment, giving his version of the cele brated controversy with the Amalga mated Copper company, and the schemes for settlement of the question which has now brought Montana face to face with an Industrial crisis. Mr. Hetnxe’s statement was made upon the heels of the disappearance of John MacGlnnlsa, who, It is alleged, fled from Butte to avoid meeting the com mittee of the miners' union who sought to buy his stock in the Boston ft Mon tana company, and thus end the litl- •tlon with the Amalgamated Copper 1 company. A feature of this statement Is Helnze’i assertion that MacGlnnlsa about a year ago was offered twice as much for his one nundred shares in the Boston ft Montana as the sum proffered by the miners' union, though the $500 a share offered by the miners, according to unquestionable authority. Is approximately five times the price the stock can command at the present me. Hit 8tatemenL Mr. Heinze said In part: \The history of the United States has not furnished heretofore a parallel o f the occurrences of the past 48 hours In Butte. H- H. Rogers oi the Stand ard Oil Company is quoted In a dis patch as saying this will be a fight to a finish, and there will be no compro mise. Mr. Rogers and myself have been %ngaged in a bitter struggle for years pasL as every one knows. He has bad at various times Interested with him In the controversy pretty nearly every large Interest state, and he and his followers have many times prophesied my Immediate Impending bankruptcy. In the course of this struggle, however, the Snohom- Tram way, the Nipper, the L. E. R. and Parnell and many other claims have been developed by me Into mines and they are now ail closed by lnjunc- some of which have been In force for over six years, and in this way I have been prevented from giving employment to over 20o0 men more than I am now employing. 'Mr. MacGlunlss has recently ob- ned an order in his suit as a stock holder of the Boston ft Montana com pany. This suit Is based upon the al legation that Mr. Rogers did not give due regard to the laws which passed by the early pioneers who adopted our constitution and other laws. Should the supreme court hold with Judge Clancy in his recent de cision it is possible that Mr. McGln- nlss' Interest In the Boston ft Montana company might eventually prove to represent 10 per cent or even more of that property. “The offer which the miners’ union committee Is empowered to make lb Mr. MacGlnnlsa Is less than 60 per cent of what he refused In 1889 and many, times since. Mr. MacGlnnlsa left Bntte because most o f the newspa pers and large interests In the town are doing everything they can of a most Inflammatory nature to cause trouble and to Incite riot during a heated period which m any event can do nothing but reflect discredit upon the citizens of Butte. \Early next week I will open a bureau In thia city, where I will ask all the married men who have been thrown out of employment recently to place their applications for employ- menL I will ssk the men now work ing for companies controlled by myself to agree to work less than full time, and In this way 1 hope to be able U make room for over 1600 men. “If this present trouble is to be used as a reason for compromise, the con troversy about the Nipper and many other claims should be considered simultaneously. A number o f times during the past tnree or four years I have offered Mr. Rogers to submit the entire controversy between ns board of engineers, as disinterested arbitrators, and in each instance have been met by the condition that I must leave here defeated and cease to operate In the Butte camp. It would not have been possible for me in the to make the fight which I have made If the miners of Bntte had not stood by me. I believe I have stood by them faithfully, and I propose to continue to do so.” DIME M ill M E TWELVE STICKS OF DYNAMITE FOUND IN DEPOT. MONTANA NEW8. More than 2,600 men win be affected In this vicinity by the order of the Amalgamated Copper company to shut down its plants in Montana and Wyom ing. Dr. Robert Roy MacFarlane, bear ing letters addressed to him at Se attle and JJawson, was found dead In the toilet robm o f an feastbound train at Missoula. He was on his way Chicago. The section crew at Jo^pa, a siding a few miles east o f Rosebud, found two sticks of dynamite on the track Snn- ty. A number of trains had fer it, but it is not known why no explosion occurred. Ella Davis, a young woman who has been working as a waitress at the Southern hotel at Butte, committed 'suicide Sunday by taking two ounces of carbolic acid. It seems that Miss Davis was fondly attached to a young man who had been working mines. When the shutdown of the Amalgamated mines occurred he de cided to leave the city and find ployment elsewhere, and the young woman brooded over his departure until she decided to end her worry by committing suicide. Three white men held np three Jap anese laborers in the Northern Pa cific freight yard at Missoula. Two-of the Japs got away.' A third was shot through the head and instantly killed. The lifeless body was robbed o f $60.

Atlanta, Ga., OcL 27.—United States Senator William M. Stewart of Ne vada was married tonight In a private parlor of the Piedmont hotel of At lanta, to Mrs. Mary Agnes Cone, widow of the late Theodore C.

It Would Have Destroyed:Property for Ten Block* Around If Ignited—Dyna mite Was Well Prepared for 8ure Ex plosion—Long Fuse Attached—Dis covered by Laborers. Seattle, Wash., OcL 30.—Twelve sticks of dynamite, done up in two packages, with split fuses attached ail ready to light, were found concealed In the toilet of the Interburban depot. First Avenue South and Jacksott streeL There was enough of the ex plosive to have blown up all building* within a radius of two blocks and to damage property for a distance of 10 blocks from the depot. The news of the find was received at the police sta tion over the telephone and Police Sergeant Stuart made a special lovM- tigatlon. One package containing six sticks had been carefully rolled up and placed behind the washstand bowl. The oth er, containing the same amount, had been wrapped In the same manner and secreted from view behind the toilet bowL Around each of the packages. Inside the paper In which they were rolled, was a long fuse *» arranged os to con nect with the sticks. The end of each of these fuses had been split -with a knife for a distance of about ad Inch, exposing the powder to view through the wrapper, and would permit Imme diate ignition. The discovery was made by a laborer named Wilson. When his eye fell on the package be hind the wash stand and the fact that It was concealed, struck him as pe culiar. He pulled it out and discovered it was dynamite. MacGlnnlsa at 8alt Lake. Salt Lake, OcL 26—John MacGln- nlss of Butte, vice president of the United Copper company, has arrived from the north, and went at once to the home o f a friend In city. Mr. MacGlnnlsa refused to discuss the con ditions at Bntte. Fight Goes On. Bntte, MonL, OcL 27.—All ch'ynre an Immediate settlement In the war betwien the big copper interests com posed of the Amalgamated Copper company on one side anu F. Augustus Heinze on the other was dispelled in a statement Issued by President Will iam Scallon, head of the Amalgamated copper Interests In Montana. Mr. Scallon's statement followed a pro posal made by Mr. Heinze to a mass meeting of 16,000 miners of Butte, called by Mr. Helnae. He authorized Bell the MacGlnnlsa stock for $20,- 000 In B. and M. company, and to have the privilege of buying live thirty- sixths of Nipper. Scallon rejects it, speaking for the Amalgamated, and declares that the proposition la ridicul ous. With the exception of the scene when President Long of the miners’ union Interrupted Mr. Heinze, demand ing an immediate answer to the propo sition o f the miners' union to purchase the MacGlnnlsa stock, nothing dis turbed the peace of the meeting. The most striking sermon Is usually the one that hits the man who Is not there. Aged Minister Dead. Oakland, OcL 27.—Rev. Thomas Fraser, former synodical missionary for the Presbyterian synod.
