WON'T STAND CUT.
Arizona Miners Walk Out When En-
Hoyers Attempt to Reduce Wages,
new SCALE SHOULD Be ADOPTED.

A telegram from Phoenix. Ariz.,
dated June 3, says:
Several thousand miners are idle in
Arizona because of attempts to reduce
the wage scale by mine operators as
a result of the eight-hour law, which
became effective on June l. Thirty
five hundred men are out on strike at
Clifton and serious labor troubles are
brewing at Jerome and other camps.
The eight-hour law has caused no dis
turbance at Bisbee, where the eight
hour day was adopted years ago. At
tombstone the eight-hour law went
into effect without friction. and there
was no reduction of wages, though the
customary day hitherto consisted Of
ten hours. At Clifton and Morenci
the operators held a conference. fol-
lowing which they offered to the min.
ers nine hours pay according to the
prevailing scale for eight hours work
in the future, declaring that they were
operating on a margin of profit which
would admit of no greater concession.
The miners. acting under instructions
of the federation, refused to accept
the o%vertures and wen u on strike.
The companies, however, anticipated
this move and closed down all their
works as soon as it was ascertained
that their proffered concessions met
with disapproval and all hands have
been idle since Monday. Clifton and
Morenci were ten-hour camps. The
principal companies affected there are
the Arizona Copper company and the
Detroit Copper company, two of the
leading copper producers of the west,
The Shannon Copper company in that
district lets it swork by contract and
probably is unaffected. In northern
Arizona several mines have closed
down and the men are locked out
Branch unions of the Western Fedora
ton have plastered the district with
notices warning men from working al
any Of the mines closed down unit
the trouble with the men locked out
is adjusted, although the operators
declare they have discontinued opera
lions for other reasons than the new
law.
