Anthracite Coal Miners Of Pennsyl-

Must Strike.
MINE WORKERS DETERMINED
An Order for General Strike Is to Be
Issued-Ths Mine Operators Refuse
to Confer with Their
Employees.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Sept. THE re-
fusal OF the coal companies at their
conference in New York to confer with
the miners makes the belief among the
people of the Wyoming valley stronger
that there will surely be strike. The
miners will be compelled to go out now
or back down ignominiously.
A STRIKE DETERMINED ON.
Indianapolis, Sept. THE national
board of United Mine Workers of Amer
lea went into closed session this morn
ing.
"We will certainly issue an order for
general strike, and the committee
may as well be satisfied with this state
ment," said one of the board members.
"We care little what operators have to
say as to the impending distress in the
Wyoming or other valleys. We are
running things from Indianapolis now.
We will take care of our men II they
strike, and We will not ask from the
operators any financial aid"
ARBITRATION PROPOSED.
Hazelton, Pa, Sept. IA statement
proposing an arbitration conference to
avert the strike in the anthracite region,

KETCHUM REMINISCENT.
He Talks of the Fight he and His Pals
Had at Oimarron.

Tom Ketchum was closeted with his
attorney, W. B. Bunker, on Wednesday.
At times he became reminiscent, talking
of past events in his life and of its check
cred sides, drifting away from the main
points in his own case, to which he was
recalled by his lawyer. A deputy mar
shal was with the attorney and his client
during all these interviews. Once Black
Jack became more confidential than at
any other. 1t was when his brother,
Sam, who was killed last fall, was spok-
en- of.
"We got into fight, Sam and Tommy
Atkins and me down in the territory"
he related, "and it was getting pretty
hot for us. Tommy Atkins exclaimed
all at once, Sam I'm shot Where"
says Sam. In the leg said Tommy.
We'll, you white-livered dude says Sam,
go on shooting, I'm shot twice in the
heads
To Deputy U. s. Marshal Hall when
taking the shackles from his feet yester-
day, when he was to be marched to jail,
he said: Hall, you are the first man
that ever put shackles on me. One of
these days II do the same thing to you
and I'll take you way off on the prairie
and leave you"
Ketchum expects hanging. The fact
that no attempt was made to rescue him
on the ride from Trinidad puzzled him.
"When man is in he hain't got no
friends" he said today. Conductor Har-
rington, whose brave deed of defending
his train against great odds, shooting
Jack, arrived Wednesday night to testify
at the trial yesterday.

John Hays Hammond on His Way
to Colorado to Invest in
Mines.
ENGLISH MINING SYNDICATE
Mr.. Hammond Was in New Mexico Some
Time Ago and May Invest in This Ter
ritory The Armours Also Readyto
Invest in Mines.

John Hays Hammond, the famous
South African mining expert who visit
ed Santa Fe some months ago and made
a tour OF the more prominent mining
camps of New Mexico, Utah and Colo
RADIO, is en- route from London to the
Rocky mountains. He comes to invest
on large scale, having organized an
Anglo-American syndicate consisting of
Weiher, Belt & Co. and John H. Robin
son, the South African magnates; j. p.
Morgan, of New York, and others not
so well known. AS a starter this syn
dicate has placed $7,O0O,0O0 at Mr..
Hammond's disposal for investment in
the far west and Colorado. Early next
month Mr.. Hammond will take up his
headquarters in Denver and carry on
his operations from that point. This
move is significant of whit is in store
for the mining industry. Scarcely less
significant, however, is the report from
Denver today that the Armours of Chi
cago and Mays & Co., their London
connections will for the first time just
now enter the Rocky mountain field as
investors in mining properties. They
have raised purse OF $40, 900, 600 which
they seek to invest in gold and zinc
properties. To this end contracts were
closed on Wednesday for $2,000,000
mines in Teller and Gilpin counties, be-
ing purchased by w. Morgan Robins,
