gohO Clark:
This company desires 10 resume the
operations of its coal mines at Rock
springs at the earliest possible moment.
IOl vii be good enough to notify all
concerned that such of the striking
liners and other employees who have

company.
hbunderstood, of course, that this
aciiol Of the company brings matters
% an immediate crisis. It is
,ad that the organization of
the Knights of Labor will order a
general strike upon the line of. the road
% soon as this decisive step is taken.
80 far as can be learned from the
officers Of the company at this place
and from Bromley, the representative
Of President Adams, the company is
perfectly willing to have the issue made
at this precise point and upon this
plain question. Mr.. Bromley was
asked to-day by the editor of the Rock
Springs paper with regard to the COM
pany's position on the question. He
SAID he had not the slightest doubt that
.ae directors Of the company, sooner
.aan retreat from the position they
nave taken, and submit to the
L'etation OF the men engaged in
taeSe outrages, would surrender
We ROAD to the government. Being
4'Ked what difference that would
make under the circumstances, and
now the government could run the
. .oa1 any better than the company, he
ss'g that, OF course, is for the proper
Susn9rlFles to say, but this government
