the recovery of loo bodies from the i'll
tated mine ut Virginia City the work
OF rescue was abandoned last night.
Mine officials now seem confident that

Der will be decreased by three or four.
Pipes are being laid in the mine to
pump out the water, which is in some
places 100 feet deep in the lifts.
The remaining bodies are all thought
to be under water. and it may be sew
eral days before they are recovered.
The fund for the relief of the widows
and orphans has grown TO over $4,000.
a plan has been started to induce the
miners of the district to give one davis
work to the fund.
Tie Sloss mines, near Besscmer
were the first to respond. and the en-
tire wages of the miners for today viii.
be given to the fund. In this one mine
1000 will be raised in this way.
The movement meets much symnathv
among all the miners of tie district.

PEACE YET FAR AWAY.
Riots Again Break Out i'm Chicago
Both Union and Non Union Men
Attacked.
(By the Associated Press.)


Chicago, May 1S.--Peace i'm the
transfers strike is still hanging i'm
the balance and although it is general
~ expected that a settlement Will soon
be reached, it seems tonight further
away than it did "a hours ago.
IT was confidently asserted by the
Team Owners Association that the
teamsters had consented to arbitrate
with them the question Of whether
union teamsters should make deliver
les to boycotted houses. President
Shea, of the Transfers Union, today
declared that he had never agreed to
anv such proposal. and this morning
the misunderstanding caused halt in
the impending settlement
For the first time in several days
riots broke out TODAY and there were
numerous fights between non-union
men and union teamsters. A disturb
ance at 22nd street and Indiana had
locked all traffic and delayed street
cars for half an hour The police were
compelled to use their clubs vigorous
ly to dispense the crowd. and they
made several arrests. The nom union
driver for the wholesale groc-
cry of Steele, Weedeles Il
Company, who was the in
nocent cause of the outbreak was
severely beaten. In some portions of
the southside a vigorous antagonism
to union men has developed and the
teamster wearing a union button In
driving through that quarter meets
with about the same treatment as q
non-union man does when passing the
union teamsters Headquarters.
