LEADVILLE STRIKE.
Timers Will Remain Quiet Until After
the Election.

LEADVILLE (Col.), Oct 3.-The
building of the high plank fence around
the Coronado mine on the line of the
cne destroyed by fire during the mur-
derOuS and successful attack of Sep
tember list is being rapidly completed,
and as soon new machinery can be
put in place and housed, the mine will
resume with full force. This, with the
other mines now getting under way
will leave practically none idle that
were in operation when the strike be-
gan, except the Smith Moffat proper
ties. These were employing about 300
men.
Manager Smith says they will not re-
sumo work while it is necessary to have
the protection of guns and guards.
The meeting Of the Miners Union last
night was attended by about 200 of the
conservative element, and this is re-
garded as an indication that the dis
ruption Of the organization is impend-
ing.
Preparations were hurried to-day
for the resumption Of work in the BIZ
son, Little Johnny, Mahala and Resur-
rection. AT least 500 men are expected
to be working on these properties with
in two weeks. If full forces cannot be
obtained in the camp more men will
be brought from Missouri. The miners
will be paid So a day, but for topmen
and trammerS in the dry parts Of the
mines the rate will be So 80.
AS a result of the Miners Union
meeting last night the majority have
decided to remain quiescent until after
the election.
The Grand Jury which is to investi-
gate the recent riot and crimes con-
nected Herewith was selected this
morning. The strike will not be COM
promised. 1t is a fight to the bitter end
The mine managers have given up all
idea of any compromise and will simply
go ahead and start their properties on
a small scale. They will get as many
men as possible and what they cannot
get here they will bring in from outside
points.
Your correspondent learned tonight
on very reliable authority that most of
the mines Will start up as soon as pos
sible They will get men wherever they
can. The Bison and the Emmett mines
have all non-union men and it is learned
that others will follow in their steps.
On the other hand, the Miners Union
people are very determined and say now
that nothing but So a day will be ac-
cepted. They claim that the mine man
ayers can never secure enough men to
operate their mines. President BoyCe
of the Western Federation, assisted by
Secretary Dewar of the local union, are
conducting the affairs of the union here
at present.

SOUND-MONEY DEMOCRATS.
Chairman Bynum Has Word to Say
on Campaign Topics.

CHICAGO, Oct. 3.-Chairman Rynum
Of the National Democratic Executive
Committee left for the East tonight.
Rumors have been rife that yesterday IS
committee meeting was far from har-
monious, and that the appointment of
ex-Mayor Hopkins as Vice-Chairman,
to have charge of headquarters in the
absence of Mr.. Bynum. was virtual
dethronement of the Indiana leader.
Evidently as refutation of the stories,
the sound money press bureau tonight
announces that important business
pertaining to the campaign will re-
quire his (Mr. Bynum's) absence from
Chicago for an indefinite period"

SECRETARY BROWN SAYS NO.
He Declines to Place De YrieS' Name on
the POpuliSt Ticket.
The National Party Of Prohibitlonlsts
Files It's Electoral
Ticket.

| When Secretary of State Browns an
| nouncement on the Attorney General
| opinion was read by the Democrats
| and Populists yesterday morning ana
tbev realized that less than twenty
| fo1r hours remained in which they coulo
eet nm a petition for De Vries contain
| ing 35O names for filing in the Secfe-
| tarv of States office, they began TO nus
| t1e and a number of men We're sent out
| with netitions in Stockton, Sacramento
and Lodi. and the work was rushed TO
| the utmost limit.
Asa consequence late last night Frank
II Co,ld came up from Stockton and
r p TROY. Secretary of the Democratic
state Central Committee, came up from
San Francisco. and repaired to the Pop
ulist headquarters, where the names
wera certified to. Mr.. Gould brought
from Stockton petitions containing l,OoO
names and others from Lodi containing
331 names, while about ooO names hau
been secured in Sacramento.
Mr. TROY brought the certificate OF
nomination bv the Executive Committee
of the Peoples party State Central Com
mittee and the certificate of acceptance
hv the Finance Committee.
At 1850 p. m. the party proceeded 70
the office Of the Secretary OF State
where Mr.. Troy notified secretary
Brown that he offered for fling the nom
nation on the Populist ticket OF Marion
De Vries to fill the vacancy MADE py the
resignation of c. +. McGlashan as can
didate for Congress in the Second DIS
trict.
Secretary Brown said he did not see
how he could file the nomination IN the
face Of the Attorney Generals opinion.
Mr.. Gould thought the Attorney Cen
eral was wrong and that it could be filed
within the minimum number OF days
provided for by the code.
Secreta1, Brown thought he would
have TO stand by the opinion Of the At
torney-General, the legal adviser OF
the State officers.
"well." said Mr.. Gould, ''we shall GER
tainly contest it if you do. We now Of
fer YOU the certificate of petition by
Electors. together with the appoint
ment of the Finance Committee"
Secretary Brown wrote communi-
cation to the Chairman of the Execu-
tive Committee of the Peoples party,
stating that the certificate Of nomina-
| ton had been offered for filing, but
| that he had declined to file 1t In ac-
cordance with the AttOrney-Generafs
| opinion as it had not been filed forty
days before election.
Messrs. Troy and Gould took charge
of the communication, and mandamus
proceedings will be at once begun
against Secretary Brown to compel
him to receive the nomination and
place De Vries' name on the Populist
ticket.
The petition was then received.
But this was not the last petition.
A few minutes before u o'clock other
actors appeared on the scene and filed
a nomination by petition of between
5000 and 10000 names for the National
party-the straight-out Prohibitionists,

THEY COULD NOT AGREE.
Neither CaSSelman Nor Cornish Get the
Nomination.
Hugo Frommelt and Berger Are in
the Field as Independent
Candidates.

For the past week politics in the Re-
publican ranks of the First Yolo Coun-
ty Supervisor District, embracing the
village Of Washington and a considers
able scope Of the surrounding country,
have been at cross purposes, and re-
manned so up to the last gasp.
At the convention that assembled at
Woodland it was found that dead
lock existed which time has not been
able to break, and the followers Of
both factions, that of Ezra Casselman,
present incumbent, and O. H Cornish
of Clarksburg, have been bitter and at
times personal against each other.
To heal the matter over, both sides
agreed to leave the matter in the hands
of the County Central Committee, but
here again the deadlock loomed up, for
on formal vote they stood to ).
In order to make final effort for
affiliation the delegates met at Moffet's
Hall in Washington as late as 10
O'Clock last night, when it was hoped
that they might agree either on Cas-
selman or Cornish, but the effort was
futile Partisanship ran too high, and
while neither side would concede one
jot in favor of the other candidate,
pion for a dark horse.
For an hour and quarter the DEL
egates ruminated, argued, or sawed
the air, but when at the end Of that
period the vote was still Cornish 3,
Casselman ), the delegates gave up in
disgust and as all certificates of can
Gidacy had to be filed by II a. n. last
night, neither of the two doughty cham
pions got on the slate.
So it happens that the war in YoIo
continues and grows furious amongst
the Republicans, while Tom Snider,
the regular Democratic nominee for
the coveted position, looks on and
laughs at a. that"
At midnight last night the matter
passed from the hands of the delegates
into that of the County CentraI Commi-
tee, and if a regular Republican nomi-
nee is put forward it will be by that
body. But there are others. Hugo
F'rommelt, Washington's fearless Con-
stable, has within the past few days
circulated a petition to place his name
on the ticket as an independent candi-
date, and as that petition is now filed
away with the County Clerk, it is safe
to say that Frommelt will drag num-
ber of votes from some other Republi-
can.
A. II. Berger, who was candidate
for nomination before the primaries.
also had friends in the field yesterday
afternoon who were industriously cir
culating petition to make him can
didate, and it is understood that the
necessary number was received and
that he also is in the fight.
And SO the matter stands. and while
the Republicans stand and stare at the
ruin they have made, Tom Snider con-
tinues to laugh and his friends claim
that he will have q walkover, and even
the Repub blican factions when they can
be induced to stop a moment and think,
admit that it looks like it"
