IMMENSE REWARD FOR THE
SLAYER OF ARTHUR l. COLLINS

Telluride. Colo. Nov. 22.-Arthur L.
Collins, general manager Of the
gmugsler-Union Mining Company. op-
Grating at Pandora. died at 1870 n m.
yesterday, from wounds received at
the hands Of an unknown assassin
while playing cards in the ONCE build
Ing Of the company late Wednesday
night. Death was expected from the
start and the marvel is that the strick-
en- man lived as long as he did.
At the bedside Of Mr.. Collins when
he died were his wife, his brothers,
George and Edgar A. Collins. Drs.
Ochsner. Freeman, Jaynes, Nurse Lena
Strauss and Benjamin Lawrence and
Jacob Fillius. president and attorney
respectively for the company. The
last moments were particularly sad.
Mrs. Collins was Frustrated. but she
had in a measure been prepared for
the worst.
Mrs. Collins left Telluride on the
regular train at 8:15 this morning. &C.
companied by Mrs. A. B. Blainey,
Mrs. Collins brother. Charles Becker:
Edgar Collins. her husbands brother,
and DR.. Freeman of Denver. The body
of Mr.. Collins left at noon on q special
train, accompanied by B. B. Lawrence.

COAL OPERATORS AND MINERS
MAY REACH AN AGREEMENT

prepared announcement from tho
bench"
The move. one of the most import
ant in the whole history of the coal
strike, created mild sensation when
1t became known. The surprise was
all the greater from the fact that num-
erous persons. from the President OF
the United States down, and many Or
PLANTATIONS. from the National Civic
Federation to the small boards of trade
Of the small mining towns, had failed
to bring the two parties together. 1t
was all brought about by both sides
seeing that the proceedings before the
commission would be interminable and
In the intermingling of the lawyers
for both sides the outside agreement
proposition was preached and taken
up.
Wayne MacVeagh. who carried on
such a brilliant cross-examination OF
President Mitchell, is given credit for
bringing about the present situation.
He went to New York after he had
finished with Mr. Mitchell, and had =
conference with certain persons COM
nected with the coal industry, among
them, 1t Is rumored, j. P. Morgan. He
was in New York to-day in connection
with the matter.
In order to give all parties an op-
portunity to confer on the state Of af-
fairs an adjournment was taken until
tomorrow morning. 1t is probable
that suggestion for a week or ten
days adjournment will be adopted.
All the large companies have not
yet assentcd to the proposed outside
agreement, but in all probability they
will consent to work as unit as they
did during the strike.
The Meeker herald. [volume] (Meeker, Colo.) 1885-current, 1902-11-29

nor orman requesting that like sum
be offered by the state. The present
situation was discussed at length.
1t is argued that $4,000 will insure
the best efforts of oficers and detec-
tives to discover the murderer and
that the money will be well spent In
case of success. The popular opinion
is that Manager Collins was murdered
by hired assassin and that in appre-
bending him the instigators Of the
crime will be found.
A movement is on foot for the rails
ing of 5000 by popular subscription,
to be added to the general reward. The
Smuggler-Union company, 1t Is expect
ed, will offer 5000.
The aggregate reward Of $4,000 for
the body of Wesley E. Smith, who
"mysteriously disappeared" still
stands.
Many rumors are afoat regarding
the closing of all the mines. Jacob Fill
Illus. general counsel for the Smuggler
company, said that the mine was shut
down out of respect to the dead man
ager, notices having been posted this
morning to that effect. AZ to the
length Of cessation Of work. Mr.. Fill
lluS says tnAt no one KNOWS ltA pfou-
able duration. and 1t will not be known
until meeting of the directors Of the
company IS held to determine upon the
policy in the matter.
No clew to the assassin has yet
been discovered. Some few individ-
uals have made remarks and are being
closely watched to see of any clew may
be found.
The threatening letters received by
Manager Collins were similar to those
received by other managers and su-
perintendents of this district. What
effect the assassination Of Mr. Collins
will have upon their actions remain to
be seen.
The body of Mr.. Collins will be in
tered at Paramount cemetery Sunday.

Scranton, Pa, Nov. 21.-The mine
workers, through their representatives,
have agreed with the mine owners to
