Cause of the Strike.

P. 0. Burlington, a Gallup coa
 miner, in relating to the Albuquerque
 Citizen the cause of the strike of coal
 miners at Gallup, says: "If there ever
 was a just walk-out it was there. Be- fore the strike there was no union at Gallup, although a majority of the miners are union men. The first seri. ous kick from the miners came about when the weight per ton was pushed up few hundred pounds, when the company only required the miners to mine 2,66O pounds for ton and to re- ceive for that 70 cents. The miners protested against the weight, saying that they were turning at least $500 pounds per ton and only received pay for 2,660 pounds. No attention was paid to the protests, after which the miners concluded, for protection sake, to organize themselves into a union. At the first meeting about sixty min CTS from the Colorado Fuel company's mine affixed their signatures to the union, and as soon as this action reached the ears of the mine operators the men were instantly discharged. The men who were at work appealed to the operators that the discharged men be re-employed. The request was utterly ignored, whereupon another meeting was called anG a strike ordered"
 Burlington also stated that the operators gave orders the next day that no more meals would be served to the miners nor lodging gran ted them. He says the miners are com pelled to pay s460 per keg for pow der and that they must buy their goods from the company's store or quit its employment. It is the opinion of Burlington that before the strike is declared off the miners at work at the mines now not in the strike will also go out in sympathy7Journal- Miner

News and Comments Pertaining to
 the Territory at Large.


 No reflection is intended on the | governors of Arizona and New Mexico
 when it is said that they are here or an irrigation mission, says tha Chicago
 Record.
 Joe Hulhatton, who was sent to the insane asylum few weeks ago, is re- ported to be much improved and it is expected that he will be discharged in short time.
 The story is told of one of the as- semblymen from the northern part of the territory, that during his nasty visit he dropped nickel in the drink ing fountain in front of the ocurt house, and declared that the game was out of order r.-Ent9rprise. Pete Boscha, constable at Congress, brought in three Indians last night under sentence of fifty days impris- onment for violation of the game law. The particular otlenSe charged was the killing of deer out of season. They belong to the San Carlos reservation. and were arrested under complaint of John Mccarthy, the game and fish commissioner.
 It looks like another dry winter. In the mountains outside of the San Fran cisco Peaks but little rain or snow has fallen this winter. In an ordinary season the snow at this time of the year would be three feet deep all over this plateau. Should we have another year of drought the Salt river valley will suffer from its effect more than any other portion of Arizona. Even with the normal rainfall that section does not have water enough to irrigate the acreage of land now under culti- vation and with another year without the average amount of moisture that section will lapse to its former desert condiSion. n.-Coconino Sun.
 The Copper Era says: A railroad from Clifton to Globe and the Salt River valley would be great conven- ence to the people living along the inc, and at the same time would open up a new and extensive market for the farmers of the Salt River valley. The Phoenix papers are agitating a railroad to the coast, but a direct line to Globe, Morenci and Clifton would afford them better and an everlast- ing market The road could be eX- tended on from Clifton to the mining district and make connection with the | santa Fe at Socorro, thus shortening the through route of the Santa Fe to | the coast by several hundred miles. | such road would connect the biggest mines of the southwest, and would | 'oon prove paying investment.

 The Times, in its financial article, which refers to the combination as the biggest of even American financial deals," says:
 "The magnitude of the Stock ex- change operations in Americans and the gigantic deals upon which they are in part based are making experi- enced people rather more cautious in entering into commitments, for, al though they still believe business to be sound in the United States, the magnitude of the operations recently effected. especially in the steel trust, Is xreater than any we heretofore have e&1nnNadD D

GET RICH QUICK.
Miss Frances Caspari Collected $71 ,00O
 Under False Pretenses.

Miss Frances Caspari Collected $71, ,0OO
 Under False Pretenses.
 Baltimore, Feb S.-One of the most remarkable cases in the history of the criminal court was finished here yes terday, when Miss Frances Caspari, q prominent school teacher and church worker, who according to her own statement, had obtained $71, ,OOO from various persons which she pretended to invest for them in two mythical get-rich-quick concerns, was convicted of obtaining money under false pre- lenses. One of the concerns which Miss Caspari pretended to invest in was known as the Leafiet association of New York.
 How the woman managed to vic timize so many prominent persons is ineXplicable. Among investors are school teachers and successful busi- ness men. The women were the easi- est victims. From one of the mem- bers of the Unitarian church in which she was q leading worker Miss Gas pari obtained $10,Oo0. Mrs Dr Flora Brewster, a successful physician, put in S4,O00. Still another invested S3.O0O and any number put in from S2OO to Sl 300. While she acknowledges receiving 71,OOO, it is believed that S1O0.00O is nearer the mark. Some of the business men are ashamed of their gullibility and refuse to name the amounts they gave up.i
 The most remarkable feature about the whole business is that not an in vestor has a scra. If paper to show who received the money. Miss Cas- pari gave her personal receipt, and put her victims off by promising cer- titicate from the company within three months, when they would get their first dividend of s per cent.
 For two days the trial has been in progress. Every space in the court room was packed with women, many of whom had given up their money Miss Caspari herself apparently was witness stand. She simply confessed that she received the money, but ip- sisted that it was in safe hands and | that the dividends and principal would be forthcoming in due time.
 l Edgar 1T. Cans, her senior counsel in his closing argument, maintained that she was insane and declared tha, she was under the influence of some | person or persons who had the powe,
 to do the things for which she was or l trial and seal her lips. He said thai her reiteration of her belief that tn,
 money to pay off all the claims VII l surely come also is evidence in th, same direction.
 The jury reached a verdict within
 ten minutes after retiring. Cmly two votes were taken. The first was as tt the defendants sanity. The decision that she is and was sane wa,
 unanimous. Then she was declared guilty. Pending motion for n nev trial which was made, Miss Caspar
 was released on S4.OOO bail. The lay

Fighters who wield the big mitts should be thankful that they are not compelled to exercise their muscles in India. The court of Baroda, an i'm portant Hindoo state, Is fond of box ing, and the contestants wear iron knuckles, each knuckle carrying q spike four inches long. The knockout blow at Baroda is a downward sweep, which eliminates the entire counrenance.
