COLODARO SHELTERS.
Will Not Reopen at Scale Recon-.
meuded nv Arbitration Board.

DENVER, Aug. 1.-The Operating
Committee of the American Smelling
and Refining Company. at meeting
to-day decided not to reopen the smelt
ers in this city and Pueblo at the scale
recommended by the State Board OF
Arbitration. The committee published
card, in which it says:
1.-The decision of the Board of Arbf-
tration cannot be accepted by the
American Smelling and Refining Com
pany because it is unreasonable and
unjust The board has undertaken to
arbitrarily interfere with industrial
conditions in Colorado in a way which
cannot fail, if persisted in, to bring
about great hardships to the industries
already established and to surely pre-
vent new industries from establishing
themselves here"
1t is reported that the company will
reopen the Omaha Grant smelter next
week, if enough men can be found who
will accept the wages offered. The
smelter mems union will post guard
around this smelter, and endeavor to
dissuade men from working there, as
was successfully done at the Globe
smelter last week.
