MATTER OF A FEW DAYS
CITIZENS COMMITTEE TRYING
TO ARRANGE DIFFERENCES.
The President of the Big Concern Is
Expected In Denver Next We'd
nesday, When a Mutually Salts
factory Scale of Wages Will Be
Agreed Upon.

Denver, Colo, June 1S.-If the unani-
nous opinion of the citizens commit
tee, which includes Ex-Governor Adams
and President Jeffery of the Rio Grande
railway, appointed by Mayor johnson
and Governor Thomas, in behalf of the
city of Denver and state of Colorado
to endeavor to effect a settlement of the
trouble between smelter managers and
their employees is criterion, it IS
only matter of a few days until the
large smelters in this city and Pueblo
at least, now closed on account OF
wage differences. will be in operation.
The committe was in session the
greater part of this afternoon, and
went over the situation in conjunction
with four of the employees from each
of the Globe and Grant smeiters
of this city.
1t is said that it developed in the
meeting that the matter of wages and
hours to be accorded to EMPLOYEES in
the smelters concerned in the lockout
has become secondary to that of recog-
milton of the smelter employees union.
The employees union is affiliated with
the Western Federation of Miners, and
il is said the board of operators of the
American Smelling & Refining COM
pany are averse to recognizing the fed
GRAFTON as having any rights IN dis
puteS between the managers and en-
ployees of a particular smelter. The
members of the citizens committee.
while refusing to talk of the discus
sions had in the meeting this afternoon,
have issued the following statement to
the public:
The committee have, according to
their best judgment, furthered the
opening of negotiations between the
smelter managers and their men, with
view to an early resumption of work.
and the committee believe that progress
has been made, which, in a few days,
may eliminate in the reopeninS of the
smelters in Denver and Pueblo. II is
learned that the president of the Amer
lean Smelling & Refining company will
probably arrive in Denver next Wed
nesday. when a mutually satisfactory
scale of wages may be agreed upon be-
tween the managers and the men. In
the meantime the committee will offer
its services to help bring about so de-
sirable results"
The smelter employees union held no
here today.

Especial to The Herald.)

Cheyenne, Wyo., June 1S.-George
Currie and George and Tom Roberts,
three OF the men who dynamited the
Union Pacific train at Wilcox in June,
are proving very hard game to handle.
Twice the pursuing posses believed
they had the robbers surrounded, and
each time Currie and his men eluded
the officers.
The last place at which the posses
thought they had the robbers was on
the headwaters Of Norwood river, west
of the "Hole-in-theWall" When they
closed in they found no robbers and the
trail was two days old.
A courier came in from the chase to-
night with the report that the bandits
are headed south, evidently with the
intention of reaching Robbers Roost, y
in Utah. The move may be for the pur-
pose of throwing the officers off the
track, when the robbers may try to
reach the British possessions In either
case the robbers will surely be cap
tllred or killed, as every exit from the
Zig Horn mountains is carefully guard
ed by posses and Indian police from the
Shoshone reservation.
The courier states that rustler near
the ''Hole-in-t he-Wall'' furnished the
robbers with fine horses and plenty of
food and ammunition, and if they
choose to remain in the mountains.
where ii is difficult to follow them, they
may be able to elude their pursuers for
many weeks 1t seems to be the in
tention OF the robbers, however, to get
away from the Big Horn country, and
in so doing they seal their doom.

ADMIRE THE AMERICANS.
Their Good Faith In Keeping Prom
iSes to CubanS

Havana, June 1S.-The work of dis
bursting the American gratuity to the
Cuban troops continues at Cardenas.
Remdios Pinar Del Rio. and Puerto
Principe. The Cubans are fiocking TO
the distributing centres asserting that
it was only by accident they heard they
were to receive American money. The
palpable evidence of fraud in making
up the lists is arouSing popular indig-
nation throughout the island and the
evident desire of the Americans to
carry out their pledges excites general
admiration. The Cubans say that it is
the first time in their history when a
government promise has been kept and
that they have never before experienced
such considerable treatment from gov
eminent representatives.
The papers that represent the MEM
bers of the former military assembly
continue their disparaging illusions TO
Senior Quesada, the special representa-
tive of Cuba in Washington. They
characterize the appointment as 'di-
rect slap in the faces from President
Mckinley. The Gomez party, on the
other hand. say that the presidents
choice in this matter is another illus
tration of his excellent judgment"
They regard Senior Quesada as man
devoted to the best interests of Cuba
and consider that his appointment
places IN Washington "a man who VIII
tell the truth and saves the expense of
sending commissions there" which was
the usual device of the military assem-
bly,.
The libel action which Governor Cen
eral Brooke has ordered begun against
FL Reconcentrado is exciting general
interest for it is regarded as a test
case, under the present decree.
The possibility that General r-eyre
Andrade. president of the late Military
assembly. may be named as one of the
judges of appeal, has caused consider
able agitation among the Cubans who
regard him as decidedly erratic. At the
time of the Garcia funeral his attitude
toward General BROOKE whom he
charged with endeavoring by every pos
sible means. TO provoke the Cubans,
aroused considerable animOsity among
the latter More than this, at all the
of the assembly. he bitterly
denounced the Americans and at all the
gatherings of Cubans where
he has put in an appearance. he has
the same course. His Selec-
ton for a judgeship would be disap-
proved by many not only for such con-
as the foregoing, but be-
cause he is not old enough or sufficient
ly experienced to fill the position eff

STRIKERS WIN A POINT.
Put Stop to Importation of Negroes
Into Kansas.

PittSburg, Kan, June 1S.-The strik-
ing union coal miners appear to have
temporarily stopped the importation of
southern negroes by the mine operators.
The hearing of injunction cases brought
/ by the strikers in the state courts has
been postponed by Judge Skidmore I'M
til June 26, the temporary Injunction
being extended.
The injunction suits in question are
those brought in Cherokee county by
the miners to prevent the importation
of miners from other states The min
ers set up that the negroes are crimi-
mails and affected with contagious dis
eases and that their coming would be
menace to the peace of the commune
ty, good order and the public health On
this showing Judge SkidmoIe gave a
temporary restraining order and the
application for an order making it per-
manent was to have been tried yester-
day at Columbia.
Its poStponement suited the miners.
because they viii have hard work in
maintaining their allegations, and be-
cause mines where the Big Four ey-
pected to put negroes to work next
week are all in Cherokee county The
Kansas IL Texas and the Central Coal
K Coke companies could bring miners
into this Crawford county. as the
Missouri Pacific has done, but they
could not work them here to advantage.
The companies cannot we'll afford to set
the precedent of even seeming to vio-
late injunctionS, beca use % the effect
1t would have on the miners
The Missouri Pacific, in the federal
court, has enjoined the $50 miners and
the state labor commissioner from in
terfering with any one who is willing to
work for them. or from going on TIE
company's land. These cases are set
for trial on Wednesday, n Fort Scott,
for final hearing by Judge Hook of the
federal court, and all persons enjoinei
are cited to appear
