SETTLEMENT IS PROBABLE
Expected That Miners Union and
Employers at Goldfield Will Agree
on Change Room Matter.


Goldfield, New. Sept. 6.-The committee
Of the Miners union which went TO Reno
TO confer with President Nixon of the
Consolidated company concerning the
change rooms at the Mohawk and Com
bination mines and the status of watch
men at the mines returned this morning.
and President Brown of the Miners un-
ION has called a special meeting for to-
morrow at 2 o'clock to consider the com
mittee's report.
1t is understood that the agreement
reached is practically the same as the
former agreement between the committee
and the Consolidated. the miners agree
ing that Watchmen shall be neutral; j. e.,
not necessarily belonging to the Western
Federation The company makes some
concessions in regard to the arrangement
of the change room.
AT the meeting which was held before
to consider practically the same report
third of the men affected and less than
10 per cent of the votes cast at Tuesdays

close down tomorrow to give the men a

The Western Federation has sent an
organizer TO Bishop, InyO county. Cali

of the California-Nevada Power COM
pdny. which furnishes power to the mines
and mills of Goldfeld. BullfrOg and Tono-
pah to organize the workmen employed
by the company Should the power com
pany refuse to recognize the union it
would make il possible for the local union
to call out all engineers in GOldfield
where electric power is used. 1t is the
general belief here that the change room
matter VIII be settled by a vote to accept
the report of the committee but there is
still a feeling Of uncertainty.

alleges that it is an unjust persecution.
Evans Served Sentence.
Evans is said to have served a sentence
of two years in San Quentin for embez-

generation, Evans was quoted in an in
terview today as follows:
Il served the sentence, but l was inno-
cent of any crime. 1 pleaded guilty to
the charge against me upon advice of
counsel While I was entirely innocent,
the circumstantial evidence was strong
against me. and thought it was the best
thing / could do"
The alleged embezzlement was commit
ted in San Francisco. Evans says a friend
sent him to his home TO get $500 from his
wife. which he wished for gambling. The
money was lost. and the friend, to clear
himself, had Evans arrested for embez-
Element. swearing that the latter never
turned the money over to him. The trial

at The Hague and is determined to add
another wreath of laurel to his crown of
peace before he leaves the White House.
It is stated that Ambassador Jusserand
of France and Ambassador Sternburg of
Germany have signified their willingness
