CLOSED DOWN THE MINE.
Strike of Miners ut the Lucky Boy,
Custer City, Idaho.


Custer City, Idaho.
Word was received in this city Mon
day that because of a miners strike
at Custer City, Ida, the Lucky Boy
mine and mill had been closed down
for an indefinite period. and the pumps
pulled out: the mine and mill, where
push and activity was wont to be the
order of the day. now being silent and
still with a watchman at each place
being the sole indication that they had
not been entirely deserted.
Last summer, when the company
took charge of the Lucky Boy, there
were not more than a dozen men in the
camp. and the grass grew up to the
very mouth of the shaft. This condi-
ton Of affairs was soon changed, how
ever and within short time the COM
pany was giving employment to over
eighty men beside wood haulers and
laborers engaged in outside work.
Ever since that time the mine and
the mill have been thoroughly devel-
oped and in operation, and just as the
owners were beginning ITO realize some
what on their investments the miners

union steps in with an arbitrary de-
mand that the Cinnamon cooks be dis
charged and that the laborers in the
mine such as carmen and common
help, receive the same pay that expert
enced miners were receiving.
The company was already paying the
union scale for miners; but it could not
discharge its Chinese cooks, for they
could not be replaced with good white
men, neither would it pay common
mine laborers the same price that it
was paying expert miners, and in con-
sequence the union declared a strike
and over eighty men have been turned
out of employment by Superintendent
Stanton, and his action has met with
the hearty approval of Colonel Nick
Treweek, w. S. Mccormick and A. Han
auer, of this city, who are the heavi-
est stockholders in the Lucky Boy
company.
Colonel Treweek was seen yesterday
by a Herald representative in relation
to the strike, who stated that it was a
great surprise to him, as he was net
aware before that there was a miners
union in Custer City; and furthermore,
that he had no previous knowledge of
diSSa tisfaction among the employees of
the mine and mill I'VE are willing to
pay the highest wages to good miners, -
said the Colonel land are paying all
that the union scale calls for, but we
will not make the pay the same for
the car pusher that we do for the ex-
pert miner. In that country it is i'm
possible to get along without Chinese
cooks. It is not the wages that we
care for in this line, but the service,
and good, steady white cooks cannot
be secured, therefore the mine and the
mill will remain closed until such a
time as we can run our own business
and control the manipulation of our
own property
Major Stanton is expected to arrive
from Custer within a day or two.

AS work progresses in the Northern
Light mine, on Lion hill, under the
management of Superintendent Frank
Hines, the officers and stockholders of
the company have more reason than
ever to congratulate themselves, as
every stroke of the pick and every
blast fired opens up larger and richer

future continue to improve as sapidly
as they have within the past few days

puted the foreign consuls to authorize the
police to enter foreign houses when neces-
sary and arrest Armenians throwing

The offer of the Turkish government to
furnish the embassies with guards has
been declined, the forei gn officials prefer
ring to rely upon the guards of bluejack-
cts from tho warships of the powers. Since
the issuing of the Hynchakist circular
1900 Armenians have been arrested, and
the exodus Of Armenians continues.
A serious panic occurred In the Galata
quarter in consequence of the arrest of an
Armenian in whose possession were q

volver. Everybody rushed into their
houses and the doors Of the shops and
dwellings were hastily barred, the people
fearing repetition Of the looting and

was not until some hours after the arrest
was made that the fears of the people were
allayed and the shops reopened.

Indifference of the European powers in re-

ployment of force would be necessary"

of the Spanish legation In this city say
that additional troops have recently ar

way to begin active military operations
again as soon as the rainy season is over.
1t was originally intended to send 10000
additional troops, but it Is understood
that General Weyler Is now SO confident
of the weakness Of the insurgents that he
considers 10000 additional men sufficient
for the purpose he has in view. Spanish
officials here confidently predict that the
war will end within month after mill
tary operations can be actually resumed.
The &c, 900 additional men, it is said, are to
BIO distributed in Pinar del Rio. Immedi-

OUR MEXICAN RELATIONS.
Address BY Rrssidert Dian on the Opel
ing Of Cnne


ing Of Congress.
CITY OF MEXICO, Sept 1.-THE address
delivered last etcning by President Diaz
on the opening Of congress, referring to
diplomatic relations With the United
States, Is in part as follows:
ION the sixth OF May last convention
was concluded at Washington whereby
the international water boundary COM
mission between Mexico and the United
States was empowered to study certain
questions bearing on the distribution Of
the waters Of The Bravo, or Grande river.
The water boundary commission has set
tied two grave questions of disputed ter
ritory arising from changes in the bed Of
the Rio Grande, ono relating to the Cham
isla tract, claimed by both commissions
on behalf y this government, and the
other regarding the San Elizario Islet,
which was awarded by both commissions
to Mexico"
Referring to the attack on the Nogales
custom house, the president says Mexico
legation at Washington has been In
structed to draw the attention OF the de-
partment Of state to the case, and that as
soon us the judicial investigation now in
progress at Sonora Is completed the extra
dition of the guilty parties will BIO asked Of
the United States.
The president then goes on to refer to
the recent attempt to hold pan-Ameri-
can conference in the City Of Mexico to
consider the Monroe doctrine This idea
originated with the government of Ecua-
dor, though the congress had dissolved
after only few meetings and without ac-
complishing anything it does not follow
that its aims will not be some day at
tanned"
The most important part Of the message
relates to the financial situation In Mexico,
cash revenue amounting last fiscal year
to $50, 100000, the largest annual revenue
yet recorded, and the year closed on June
80 with a surplus Of four and half mill
Ion dollars The surplus is now in excess
Of 81, 100000.

Attempt to Wreck an Express Train.

PITTsBURG, Sept ia dastardly at
tempt was made to wreck the western ex.
press on the Pennsylvania railroad at
Newport, west of Harrisburg, about
o'clock in the morning. Some of the pas
sengers were bounced out Of their berths,
and in the coaches many were thrown for
ward. The sudden stop was caused by
striking huge pile Of ties, which had
been placed on the west bound track. The
engineer discovered the obstruction in
time to check the speed Of the train, but
the pilot Of the engine struck the ties and
hurled some of them to one side. The
lower ties had not been fastened, and as
the rails were wet they were forced ahead
until the train came to standstill. The
prompt action Of the engineer saved the
