ployes "walked out" but up to the pres.
ent time no strikes has been declared
The general opinion is that strike will
be declared and that the work will be
suspended for some time at all the mines,
except the Caledonia which is not "in it,
| The Aztec Coal company, we learn, has
given notice that it will resume work
under the contract system. The strike
against this company has not yet been
declared off.-Gallup Elk.
Mr.. William Moore, foreman on the
Surprise mine, reports big strike on the
Grand Central mine of the Teel & Poe
Mining company. at Cooks Peak. An
immense body is exposed and Mr.. Moore
says it is impossible to determine its ex-
tent, as it seems to reach out and down
without limit, and the opening along the
roof has been explored back some forty
feet. The Summit mine, belonging to
the same company, and adjoining the
Grand Central is also showing up in fine
shape.
Santa Fe couhty notes: In about six
weeks from now the fall trade for coal
will commence, and that should material
ly help to liven up things around Ger
rillos. Cerrillos is the nearest
and only convenient point from which to
reach San Pedro, Golden and Dolores
camps. Good stage lines and good hotels.
n j. p. O'Brien was in from
San Pedro Monday. He reports good ore
in the Catron group of mines, which is
constantly improving as development pro-
crosses. The local mining fu-
ture appears bright with promise. The
machinery of all the mines, both here
and at San Pedro, is being increased and
both mills are likely to start up at Dolo-
res. Messrs. Middleton and
Newhouse, Denver capitalists, the former
one of the purchasers of the Lincoln
Lucky mine, arrived yesterday and pro-
ceeded to San Pedro in company with r.
Y. Anderson.
