NOTICES POSTED BY
 THE TENNESSEE CO,
Declared That Mines at Johns
 Start Today
MINERS ARE VERY QUIET
Deputy Sheriff cowan and Three Men Are Stationed at Johns, But No Trouble Is Anticipated.
 Other News.

Bessemer, August 9.-(Special )-Notiees pany at Johns that the mines at that place will be started up tomorrow with non-union labor and 3711 cents per ton will be paid. based on the price of iron. The notice has created very little excite ment, and everything at the mines con- tinues quiet and peaceful.
 Deputy Sheriff Sid Cowan and three deputies are stationed at Johns at present and it is understood that he has a number of additional deputies subject to his call at any time.
 It was predicted two or three weeks ago that the mines would be started up on August 1, but no effort was made to re- sume work at that time. The company on the other hand, however, extended the time for the miners to move from It's houses thirty days. According to the present status of affairs the men will not be required to make vacant the houses until September 1.
 The mine workers, when they express any sentiment at all, aver that they are determined to remain loyal to the union. A prominent member of the union, when asked what per cent of the local would accept the company's offer, answered. none"
 The miners still declined to discuss the situation and nearly all efforts to draw them out on the subject prove futile.
 In the meantime the miners are draw ing their supplies regularly from the re- lief committee and the reports are that they are determined to hold out to the last.
 At Woodward no movement has been made so far looking to the resumption of the mines or the furnaces. A number of repairs are being made on the old furnaces and the new one, which is in the course of construction, is being pushed rapidly to completion.
 With one or two exceptions all the ore mines of the Tennessee company on Red mountain are in operation.
