EFFORT TO PREVENT sTRIKEs
:erence Held at Capitol Building
: in Denver.

At the Invitation of Governor Pea
body, a conference was held in his
office yesterday between representa-
tives Of the Colorado Fuel and Iron
comapny, the Victor Fuel company
and Labor Commissioner Montgomery
for the purpose of discussing the
pending coal strike in the southern
Colorado fields.
After the conference every one
present declined to discuss it or to
even say whether or not they thought
it would be fraugtt with good results.
Those present were Governor James
II. Peabody, J. f. Welborna and Cass
E Harrington, the latter two repre-
senting the O. +. andd l. G.F. Bart
lett. general manager of the Victor
Fuel company and State Labor Com
missioner W. H. Montgomery. The
conference lasted about three quarters
of an hour.
While there was nothing given out
hte general opinion is that no direct
results were accomplished.
The position of this O. F. and L.,
is that their men had no grievances.
or, at least. had never made them
known to the company. and that they
declined to confer with any committee
sent here from the east by Mr.. Mitch
ell. If the men had any grievances
the company will be willing and glad
to take them up and discuss them
with their own employees.
There are some persons connected
with the pending trouble who feel
that the outlook for settlement in
the northern fields is brighter. The
operators have given the labor leaders
representing the miners certain assur-
ances which, it is claimed, may help
matters considerably. However,
there is no exact information to be
gained and probably will not be until
after November Z.

In the deliberations of Millionaire
Thomas f. Walsh, who is considering
the question of whether he will con.
struct a Worlds fair building for the
state of Colorado at the st. Louis ex-
position. The subject has been
brought to the attention of Mr.. Walsh
by members OF the board ana he has
had the matter under consideration
for some time, but he has not yet
determined upon his course of action.
II he decides to erect the building it
Will probably cost in the neIghborhood
of s25, 900 or $50. 900.
Mrs. Lionel r. Anthony. member
Of the board has gone to Washington
to talk the matter over with the mil.
lionaire and try and induce him to
adopt the idea. The remark attribut.
ed to Mr.. Walsh when he heard that
the state would not have sufficient
funds to erect building. that the
state should have one if he had to
construct it himself, forms the basis
for the advances made to him.
This repark was renorted In the
Worlds Fair board with the result
that negotiations were opened with
the millionaire and the members of
the board feel confident that Mr..
Walsh will provide the funds required
to construct building which will be
credit to the state Denver Repub.
