TELEGRAPHERS' STRIKE SPREAD.
Fifty Cities are Affected and Nearly
5000 Operators Have Quit.

Chicago, Aug. 10.-With some 1000
telegraphers on strike in about fifty cit
les from Ohio to California, and encour-
aged by their success in hampering tel
graph facilities of both commercial tele-
graph companies in Chicago, where all
but leased wire men are out, officers of
the Commercial Telegraphers' union to-
night are planning to carry the strike
to all parts of the United States and
Canada. Instructions were today tele-
graphed by National Secretary Russell
to union telegraphers in New York, and
other cities where they are still at work,
to ''save their money and await orders. 4"
A telegram was sent to President
Small, of the telegraphers' union, who
is in San Francisco, urging him to take
the first train to Chicago to look after
the situation, as it is the intention of
the men to engineer the strike from
Chicago.
The telegraph companies are prepar-
ing to meet the issue, and declare that
they will fight to finish. They declare
they have been temporizing with the
union for months, and that they will
hold no further negotiations with the
representatives of the men on strike.
Cots have been installed in the buildings
of both companies in Chicago for the
accommodation of strike breakers and
other preparations for bitter struggle
are making.
A consignment of thirty non-union
operators from the East arrived in Chi
cago today, and they were Immediately
placed at work, The new arrivals were
evenly distributed between the two COM
panies.
''We are filing positions as rapidly as
possible. said T. P. Cook, general su-
perintendent of the Western Union, to-
night, land we are in better position
than we expected to be. We will not
deal with any representatives of the
strikers, as this company only treats
with its own employees. When the men
quit work, they ceased to be employees
of the Western Union, and our relations
with them are at an end. There will be
no recognition in this controversy"
"Will you meet President Gompers,
of the American Federation of Labor,
should he come to Chicago and offer his
services?" Mr.. Cook was asked,
1--WE will not" was the emphatic
answer.
w. l. Capen, superintendent of the
Postal Telegraph Company in Chicago,
said his company was making better
progress than he had anticipated.
"a number of our employees have al
ready returned to work, he declared,
'and others have signifed their inten-
tention of returning"
National Secretary Russell, of the
telegraphers' union, said:
1--WE are highly pleased with the sit

uation, and no matter what sort of as
sertions the telegraph officials may
make, the fact remains they are not do
ing any business. They have a few
chiefs and inexperienced telegraphers
at work; but as far as the companies be-
ing able to handle the public business is
concerned, they are merely trying to
mislead the public. We know for an
actual fact that in Chicago there are
fifty operators who are working for the
commercial companies tonight, where
under normal conditions the number
amounts to 1850. We are in this fight
to stay, and we must have recognition,
or our union might as well go out of
business.

HAYES AND MoNNETTE TO
OPERATE AT SEVEN TROUGHS
(The Mazuma erald)

Hayes & Monnette, the greatest of
~ieasers, are to operate in Seven Troughs
canyon, one mile north of Mazuma.
They have taken leases on os. l and 2
Of the property of tho Mazuma Hills
Mining company. Two of their closest
and most confidential representatives,
Hayes and Mr.. Reynolds, who was with
them in an important position during
their lease on Mohawk, were here yes
terday completing final arrangements
for work on the ground secured from
the Mazums Hills company. Hayes s.
Monnette contemplate very extensive
operations on the leases at once. They
have seeurd the Reagan lease and n
from the company. On tho Reagan
lease an average sampling shows values
of $102.50 per ton.
ayes & Monnette are the mmost
famous mining ~leasers in the world
They took a lease on the Mohawk mine
in Goldfeld before that was known
to be a bonanza property. All the
money they had and could get or their
own securities they put in Mohawk
ground. Fortune at first did not favor
them. but they had confidence in the
property and their judgment, and when
all their source seemed exhausted
they induced two Chicago men to in
vest about $4,000 each to carry on the
work. All the world knows the result.
ayes a. Monnette made for themselves
an dassociates nearly 100000 and
developed the Mohawk so that the
stock went from below par to over
$fs per share, thus also making for
tunes for thousands of small investors,
who had purchased Mohawk stock at
from 10 to Is cents a share when it
was merely a prospect, taking a chance
that it would become a mine.

working in the sandstone dykes of the

no mineral showed or the surface. He
worked in this way at odd times for
Sc eral years, sinking prospect holes

demonstrated the fact that the prop
erty was trav,rsed by an immense
mineral zone, rlch in lead, solver and
copper. SO convinced was he of the
great value of the property that when
