Miners Ssize a Nine.

At Phoebe recently the EN- ployes OF
the Nevada Mining Company, about
30 strong, held meeting to deter
mining some way of securing their
monthly wages when due, and it re-
suited in the men tsking possession
OF the mine and mill. Ever since the
company has operated in Phoebe the
men have had to take a stand-off for
three to FIVE months, and then only
80 to 40 per cent was paid.
Everything about the mine is look
ing well, and many tons of high
grade ore have been shipped to Salt
Lake, and, it is said, from $l5, 900 to
$40, 900 have been on deposit nearly
all the time.
The Local Messenger, published at
Phoebe, says the company has ex-
tracted $4,000, which was legiti-
mately expended, and that tho pres
ent Indebtedness will not exceed Sl2, :
900, which it can easily adjust. The
men are satisfied with the condition
of the mine and assert that improper
management drove them to seize the
mine. The owners say that salts
factory adjustment will be made.

The CREDIT MAN"
An Important Person In tho Com
mercial World
His Duties Are 70 Protect Larre Con-
serns from imposition on the
Part of Unknown Gus
toners.

Ahe functions of credit man ore not
generally known to the public, but be is
IN many respects the most important
person employed by @ mercantile con.

formed concerning the commercial
standing of every firm or individual,

ings. he is kind OF walking Brad.
streets s." and the firm for which he
works has the exclusive benefit OF his
Investigations, his knowledge and his
experience. 1t does not trust to hin,
alone, of course, because in the case of
a large house there would be rather
more than he could attend to. The repu-
lar mercantile agencies are depended
upon Tor certain amount of intorrna-
ton, usually that which concerns the
oldest and richest corporations, about
whose solyency there is commonly no
question. The credit man may. however,
I ms employers suspect necessity for
II, be called upon to probe still further
than the regular agencies so, in order to
make assurance doubly sure
When would-be buyer from some re-
mote part of the country presents him
self to firm to which he is entirely I'M
known, he is introduced at once To the
credit man. The latter receives what
ever credentials the stranger has to
offer, and if he is satisfied that the
mouse will run no risk in selling TO him
ne states the fact, and his Judgment is
accepted. Various considerations de-
termlne the amount of security " hich
new customer is required to SHOW,
and not infrequently it is stipulated
that he shall have real estate backing
which is known to be responsible. The
credit man also figures out at once the
largest amount of credit which Gun be
granted to the new buyer, this being de-
termined according to the figure at
which he is rated.
Subsequently,, as he runs up bills for
goods, they all pass under the credit
mans watehful eye, and IL it is found
that the customer is close upon his
credit limit the last purchase is often
held until it is proved to q certainty that
it's delivery will entail no loss to the
firm. This process of keeping track of
every buyers limit imposes never
ending task upon the credit man, and
it is one which requires delicate hand
ling, too. While great caution is nee
essary, there must be as few needless
suspicious as possible, for these are
often the means of driving away per-
fectly trustworthy customers, who feel
themselves insulted by the reflection
upon their financial methods.
In cases where there is good ground
for believing that customer will bear
watching the credit mans investiga-
tions are very thorough. He inquiries
as to the private affairs of the buyer in
question; finds out as nearly as posi-
BILE the amount of his income, and how
his money is invested, and keeps an
eye rs well upon the way in which he
lives and spends. With every precau-
ton, however. there are many losses,
and ii is the business of the annual con-
yention of credit men to discover bet
ter ways each year Of protecting mer-
camille interests.-N. Y. Tribune.
