driven the insurgent troops northward
into San Isidro, the second insurgent
capital. which he captured this morn

northward into the mountains. He has
been constantly fighting, intlicting
heavy losses and suffering few casual

for S-Hour Labor.

Spokane, Wash, May 1.-THE mine
owners of the Nelson division and the
Silver Lead Mine Owners association
of British Columbia have announced
that after June 1 the wages of the
miners will be reduced from $3.50 to 50
day. This is the outcome of the re-
cent provincial legislation reducing the
hours Of labor of miners from 10 to s
hours a day. The effect of the new

not practicable to increase the working
forces. The announcement is signed by
the owners of So working mines.
