Trouble in Paducah, However.

ON at Towards shipyard in Jefferson
vile may be settled within the next
few days There was a rumor that
the men would return to work, but
this proved to be untrue. The caulk-

are asking, but declined to go back to
work unless the carpenters and joiners
were recognized, which Capt Howard
refused to do ON the original PROPOSE.

Negotiations are pending for read
justment Of the scale on q basis of
what the men are worth, which would
mean an increase to all of the strikers.
but men who have been considered
less valuable than others would not
get the full rate demanded, 30 cents
an hour for carpenters and 20 cents an
hour for the joiners.
The few remaining ship carpenters
and caulkers in Paducah held meet
ing last night and discussed the strike
situation, all agreeing to stick togeth-

conservative Democrats who will vote

Standard mines a week ago last Sun
day, c. A. Ross. president Of the
Standard Mines company, who had
lately arrived from London, proposed

Blake and l.. J. Broschears, of Met
calf, spent part OF Sunday in Clifton.
Mr.. Broschears recently located tract
OF land adjoining the Sisson tract,
near Stafford, upon which such strong
flow of artesian water was recently
struck. Last week he received in
formal ton that a flow of artesian water
had been struck on his land at n depth
OF 423 feet which is much stronger
than the Sisson we'll. Either of these
wells are now spouting more water
than any other wells in the county.
This water has been struck in new
district, on an upland near the Graham
mountains, all of which has since been
located, and much OF which will be in
cultivation in few years. J. c. Ott-
man owns a tract OF land adjoining
the Broschears' tract, and he also has
arranged to have an artesian well
sunk in the near future.

Col. Dick Hudson arrived from Luna
county. New Mexico, Monday night on
visit to his daughter, Mrs. Hugh
williams. Colonel Dick is perhaps
the best known old timer in the south
west. He marched through with the
California column in 1863 and has re-
sided in New Mexico ever since. This
is his first trip 10 Clifton in eighteen
years, and he Is most fayorably i'm
pressed with the many improvements
made during that time. The colonel
has always been pron.aent IN republic
can politics in New Mexico, but is
strongly opposed to statehood for New
Mexico unless the two territories can
be admitted as one state. He does not
seem to have very high opinion of
the men who are now running the
political machine in that territory
but thinks with the assistance of Ari-
IONA they could be routed from high
places, and the politics of the new
state made as pure as that of any
other state in the union. The colonel
will remain here until Monday, and in
the meantime is quite busy meeting
old friends and in taking in the sights
of the great copper metropolis.

10 sinking the VINE in the Sap
phire tunnel on the Coronado com,
pany's claims at Metcalf, a strike of
rich glance and sulphide ore was
made last week which will run close
TO 80 per cent. The Wine is going
down in body of fine concentrating
ore. about eight feet in width, upon
which a drift has been run each way
from the top of the Wine for about
100 feet. The mine is already opened
sufficiently to produce several hundred
tons daily. The lower tunnel on the
Emerald is being driven in on the same
lead of ore, and is being pushed with
vigor. The ground is so soft that the
tunnel is being advanced several feet
each day. This tunnel is several hun
dred feet lower than the Wine on the
Sapphire. The Coronado has made a
most wonderful showing since com
mencing work, which has had the
effect of advancing the price of shares
from 50 to s., and the ERA is now in
formed that no more stock will be sold
at the latter figure.
