Swansea was particularly strong The

Coal MINERS STRIKE IS ENDING
DIAMoNDvILLE STRIKERS RE.
TURNING TO WORK.
Threatened Violence Averted By
Presence of Sheriff Wards Posse
of Peace Officers.

A citizen OF Diamondville at the Ken
yon last night said that the strike al
the Diamondville mines is practically
at an end, although the union has not
yet formally declared the hostile dem
onstrations Off Already about one-half
the force has returned to work, and
every day sees more and more of the
strikers returning In a couple of
weeks the mines will be running at full
blast. and soon the Salt Lake and other
markets will be well supplied with fuel
from this companys property.
me men now remaining out are the
rlngieaders of the strikers and some
Finlanders, but TO their credit il should
be said they are refraining from drink
ing and are conducting themselves in
an orderly and proper manner. Business
IN the town is gradually recovering,
and everybody has a sense of security
from mob violence.
AT one time. a couple of weeks back
matters looked dark and threatening
in the camp of the coal miners. That
due TO the GOODNESS and sagacity of
Sheriff Ward in mastering the srua-
ton.
From all over Uinta county Sheriff
ward selected the best and most rep
resentative citizens to aid him. and
with this large posse he undertook TO
cope with the difficulties ahead. This
corps of deputy sheriffs is patrolling
the camp day and night, and every pro-
tecuon is given the miners willing to
return TO work and to the company's
property. The peace officers, in obedi-
ence TO Sheriff Wards injunction, are
acqultting themselves in a praiseWor-
tiny manner, not even the strikers hav-
ing any complaint to make on this
score. As soon as perfect peace is re-
stored the armed guards will be with
drawn. -~c
Before the strike the company acced-
ed to the demand for an increase of 3
cents ton since Nov. 1 on coal mined.
The. contention then, as now, was that
President McAllister of the Miners
union, and one Roberts, his colleague.
should be made check weighmasters at
the company's expense, after being re-
mbursed by the miners for the sala-
RES of the weighmasters. The com
oany refused to accede to this propo-
'ltion. although it consented to let the
men serve at the check scales without
Mourning a liability for their wages.
Ind because of this determination the
strike occurred.
1t is said the strikers are without the !
of the vast majority of the
community. Many predict the disrup- !
ion of the union finally, and in this |
vent the miners can blame only Nc |
Allister's and Roberts ill-advised ag- /
'resslveness for the loss of their or |
and their period of idle
less.

FOUNDERED AT SEA.
Captain, His Wife and Crew Go Down
With the Vessel.

Victoria, B. c., Dec. 1S.-According TO
advices from the western coast of this
island, it is probable that the dis
tressed bark reported ashore near Point
Bonilla on Nov. is was the long miss
ing Colusa, which sailed from Honolulu
for Esquimalt on Oct. 3; and that, re-
leasing herself from the rocks. the
fated craft soon after foundered with
Captain Ewarts. his wife and the
crew.
This conclusion has been reached by
several recent arrivals from the coast,
and is in a measure corroborated in a
report from Light Keeper w. p. Day
kin of Carmanah. who tells of the
stranding and subsequent release of a
vessel answering the description of the
Colusa. The Indians at Dodge's Cave
report that vessel foundered off there
1t was supposed that that was the
abandoned bark Libertad. but there is
a strong probability that it was the
