LEADvILLE, Col, June 22.-Unless
settlement shall be quickly reached
between the mine owners and the
Miners union work is likely to be sus-
pendec at nearly all of the silver mines
in the camp. The hex company,
owners Of the Little Johnny mine,
shut down all Of their properties to-
day. All the miners were also laid off
indefinitely at the Alps, Garbutt, Yak
and other mines where the mems
wages were 50 per day
Although the trouble originated ia
demand of the union for 50 rer day
in silver mines, the owners Of which
claim they cannot pay such wages at
the present price Of silver, the owners
claim that the real issue is whether
the Miners union shall be permitted
to dictate the employment Of only
union men, and they will fight this to
the end.
The streets are crowded with miners,
but they are well behaved.
