A. 10 the Dead.
Yesterday the Standard sent
query" to its Arizona correspondent
respecting the Miners statements as 90
the death record at Jerome The an
swer includes these words: THE Butte
Miners average might be true IL ap-
piled to deaths actually occurring in
mine or works. as the greater number
die in hospital after being taken out.
For instance, three men were fright
fully burned at the smelter only last
week. None OF them are yet dead, al
though one is daily expected to die, and
the others are In bad condition. The
Standards dispatch reached me at
Phoenix instead of at Prescott and
proper data Is not available here. but
your correspondent has this moment
been talking with a well-known gentle
man who has a small interest in the
United Verde who stated that he did
not claim to know of all the deaths, but
he did know OF more than three times
as many. for the past year. than the
total mentioned in the Standards
query just received. He would give no
particulars. as ne could not ascertain
for what purpose the information was
sought. 1t is n fact that the uneces-
sary dangers at Jerome is one of the
greatest grievances OF the employees.
'Just how unsafe the mine is cannot
be ascertained excepting from COM
ments Of the employees. as II is the
boast of the company that no outsider
has been inside the United Verde. All
publicity is Stunned and the one main
policy is strictly adhered to. Inter-
viewers and correspondents are syste-
matically discouraged and a general air
of mystery Is maintained throughout
this gigantic. but despised corpora
tion.''
Lest the Miner should go off wrong
again. the Standard suggests that IL IL
will apply at the Western Union tele-
graph office. II will find the above TO
be part of an Arizona 400-word. spe-
cial. in addition to the specials ac-
counted for by Manager Swan. The
unused part of the special tells why
any talk of a future Arizona senator
ship is "preposterous." just as Mr..
Clark's Montana senatorial dream will
be when the sun sets tomorrow night.
In support of all that has been said

timony, sworn to.
