PARTIAL SETTLEMENT MADE.
Stamp Mill Men Receive Concessions
from Colorado Operators.

DENVER, Col, March ia partial set
Element has been effected in the millmens
strike at Colorado City, which has been on
for nearly a month and account of
which the state troops were ordered out.
Ore of the features of the settlement is an
agreement that the troops be withdrawn at
once. President Meyer, of the Western
Federation of Miners, gave his personal
guarantee that order would be maintained
at the mills. 1t was also agreed that the
suit for damages filed at Colorado Springs
yesterday against the officers of the militia
and others by the attorney for the western
Federation of Miners would be withdrawn.
Only two of the three mills that have not
been effected have accepted the terms or
settlement, namely, the Portland and Tel
luride mills. The employees of the Standard
mill refused to make any concessions what
ever, and the strike will be continued there.
The managers of the Telluride and the
Portland mills agree that eight hours shall
constitute a days work, except in the
sampling works where the men are to work
ten hours. There is to be no discrimination

LONDON. March 15.-Only yesterday the
London police authorities cabled to the New
York police that Whitaker Wright and
woman supposed to be his niece had sailed
on La Lorraine, under the name of An
droni. Wright's wife and family are still
in England, and, as far as the police have
ascertained, none of his relatives has left
the country. Whitaker Wright left London
about Feb. q, and went direct to Paris
where he stayed about four days before
proceeding to Havre to embark on the
Lorraine. Wright was traced to Paris by
the bank notes which he cashed there at
the office of the French steamship line and
elsewhere. When he left his country seat
at Godalming he travelled by way of South
ampton and Havre to Paris, taking pains
to conceal his movements by the redirec-
ton Of his luggage and by other means
This procedure apparently was quite sue
cessful. for it was only yesterday morning
that the detective got the clew as to his
movements through the numerous bank
notes he had cashed, after they had been
vainly watching for days the principal Brit
ish ports This clew was easily followed
up, owing to Wrights marked personal ap-
pearance. The young woman Joined him
at Havre on the eve of their sailing. Ii is
reported that she has large sum of money
in her possession.
Wright's wife is living in comparative Sc
clusion near Godalming. When seen this
evening she reiterated her belief that he
was on the way to Egypt, for the sake of
his health, the doctors having declared
that a rest was imperative. His one de-
SIRE she said. has been to do something for
the unfortunate shareholders, and the worry
told severely his health. He had re-
marked that If there ever was any trouble
he must recover his strength to enable him
to fearlessly meet the charges brought
against him. She had heard from him at
Paris. but he did not mention his move
ments.
When told that her husband had been ar
rested in New York, she said she supposed
he must have met friends in Paris who
persuaded him to change his mind and go
to New York, perhaps on his way to the
mines in British Columbia.
Asked whether her husband was an
American. Mrs. Wright replied: 81 do not
know. L am an American. We were mar
ried in America He has always been thor
oughly English, much to my disgust. If he
had been an American he would have been
properly protected"
Mrs. Wright concluded by stating that
eminent counsel would be engaged in her
husbands defense, and she hoped that his
health would enable him to make 1t vigor-
Gus. The lawyers acting in the case antici-
pate no difficulty in obtaining the mans
extradition. and il is expected that Wright
will be in London in six weeks time.

ST. LOUIS, March 15.-ArgIments will be
heard by Judge Adams in the United States
District Court, on Tuesday, in the injunc-
ton suit of the Wabash Railroad Company
to restrain the employees from going on
strike.
Labor leaders have no hesitancy in say
ing that If the injunction is not dissolved
their power is gone, and the laboring man
will have no way to enforce his demands.
The legal battle on both sides will be
sharp and determined. and great interest
is manifested in regard to the courts de-
cision. If the injunction is dissolved it is
probable a strike among Wabash firemen
and trainmen will be ordered to enforce
demands for higher wages.
