Miners Not on Strike.

Speaking of a special dispatch to the
Tucson Star saying that all the under
ground miners employed by the
Tombstone Consolidated Mines COM
pany walked out as the result of the
eight hour law, the Tombstone Pros
pector says:
The article is absolutely baseIess
from beginning to ending. There
has not been any friction between the
miners and the management of the
Consolidated Mines company, nor is
any trouble likely to occur. The
Consolidated Mines company accepted
the conditions of the eight hour law
without equivocation; the miners
have no grievances, nor is any strife
anticipated.
: 1t is strange, indeed, where the cor
respondent conceived the idea OF such
damaging story, the outgrowth of a
diseased brain and distorted imagina-
tion. OF all the mining camps in
the southwest, Tombstone is pre-em-
inently free from artisan strife than
all others; top wages are in vogue, the
companies have no desire to make a
reduction, consequently there is not
the least probability of a strike.
Not man is off duty today at the
Consolidated mines: there is too
much doing on Contention hill to
dispense with any one of its numer-
Gus contented miners, who will, in
common with the general public, re-
sent the damaging blow aimed at them
by the Tucson Star correspondent.

The first substantial indication of
the benefit to come to copper share
holders by reason of the higher price
for the metal materialized yesterday
in the shape of the announcement by
the Calumet and Hecla management
of a dividend of SO per share. This
distribution. which calls for 1000, =
600 Is made payable June 10 to stock
of record May 20. and is double the
amount that has been paid at any one
time since January. 1902 Ii makes
an aggregate of 50 paid on the stock
for the fiscal year ending April 30,
1903, as against so for the preceding
year. 1t brings the total distribution
for the calendar year 10 date up to
SO and makes the grand total paid
by the company ss1. $50, 600. The ac-
ton taken was really what had been
expected in many quarters and is
simply the result of the increased rev
enue secured through the improved
copper market. 1t is to be counted
a very favorable indication, not alone
as regards the excellent financial con-
dition of the Calumet and Hecla COM
paDy, but also in its bearing upon the
general copper share situation, mas
much as its declaration. at this time,
emphasizes very clearly the faith of
the conservative element in the cop
per circles of a continuance of the
present favorble conditions for the
metal market

All Quiet at MOrenCi.

John Burns, who arrived IN Pres
colt this morning left Morenci on
Saturday morning. He stated that
everything was quiet there when he
left, owing to the presence of the
troops. He said there were 2O1 mem
bers of the militia, 2S7 regulars,
twenty two rangers and between thirty
and forty deputies sheriff guarding
the mines and smelter of the com
pany. A few miners were at work.
Those participating in the trouble
were all Italians and Mexicans,
about one half of whom were armed.
Last Tuesday, before the arrival of
the troops, they posted armed men on
the hills surrounding the town and
compelled the closing of the mines
and smelter and threatened to dyna-
mite the town. They also made
threats of blowing up the railroad
bridges in case an attempt was made
to bring troops in.
Mr.. Burns says that since the arrest
of the ring leaders of the rioters many
others are leaving the place.
