THE GOLD STANDARD BILL
IS LIKELY TO BE SHELVED

Washington, Jan. 2S-Speaker Hen
derson has put his foot on pending
legislation to more permanently estab-
lish the gold standard at the present
session of Congress. The rivalry be-
tween the committees Of the House to
reap credit for inaugurating such leg
islation brought the matter to head
Saturday.
The Hill bill. providing for the ex-
ohangeabllity OF gold with silver, was
reported from the committee on coin
age, weights and measures several
days ngo. The committee on banking
and currency reported the Overstreet
bill to-day, containing, with change
Of verbiage, the same provisions as the
Hill bill. Chairman Southland Of the
committee on coinage introduced res
olution providing for the consideration
of the Hill bill. This resolution was
referred to the committee on rules, OF
which Speaker Henderson Is chairman.
Mr.. Henderson told Mr.. Southard
that before his resolution would be con-
sidered by the committee he must first
bring the assurance of certain senator's
that the bill would be allowed consider
alton In the Senate, II the House passed
1t. Mr.. Southard made canvass Of the
Senate Immediately and found that
too much legislation was already on
foot was the general sentiment.
Two Democrats, briggs Of New York
and Thayer OF Massachusetts, voted
with the Republicans in favor of the
Overstreet bill, which Is MS follows:

INDEPENDENT MINES
TO BE CLOSED

Denver, Colo, Jan. 2S.-Under date
Of January 9th the News prints the
following dispatch from Erie:
The strike in Erie will be on again
In full force tomorrow. At mass
meeting to-day it was voted to call all
miners out who have been working.
This order will affect over 200 men,
who will lay down their tools to-mor-
row. The Lister and the Tynon mines
are the principal mines affected, ~
they have been shipping coal, but the
Eureka, the Davis, the Whitehouse and
the Ely mines at Rim are also inciud-
ed. These mines have all been paying
the scale, and the Rim mines have
been supplying, by wagon trade, Gree
ley, Fort Collins, Loveland, Berthoud,
LongmOnt, Lyons and the territory
surrounding these places. Their COM
bined output is placed at about 400 or
800 tons per day. The Longs Peak
mine has been taking out coal for Gus
tom trade and is also included In the
mines now affected.
Tomorrow will see every mine In the
northern district absolutely idle II the
plans adopted at to-day's meeting do
not miscarry.
There was strong opposition to the
closing of the mines that were paying
the scale, and had the decision been left
to Erie alone no such action would
have been taken, but the mass meeting
was controlled by the miners from LOU
isville, Lafayette, Superior and Mar
shall, in which camps there are but
few Independent mines.
The meeting voted to adjourn with
out taking action and to wait for Pres
ident Mitchelrs representative to ar
rive to conduct the strike, but when 1t
was found that n majority had voted
to adjourn, the mover of the motion
was requested to withdraw 1t to permit
of further discussion. This was done,
and finally, after two hours Of oratory,
the motion to call out all miners In the
northern district prevailed and the
meeting adjourned.
