GOLDFIELD D MINERS
STRIKE FOR CASH
MEN REFUSE TO ACCEPT SCRIP,
DECLARE WALKoUT
All Properties in District Are Tied
Up-The Emergency Money Is
In General Circulation

BY Associetec Press,

BY Associetec Press.
GoLDFIELD, New, Nov. 2.-Local
union No. 22O Western Federation of
Miners. at an early hour this morning
voted to refuse payment for wages In
scrip or cashiers checks and failed to
report at the mines for work The result
was reached after prolonged session
and much acrimonious discussion.
The strike practically ties up the entire
camp for the time being. The miners take
the ground that Goldfield is the only gold
camp in the country not paying its miners
in coin.
From the first talk of scrip the miners
have shown disposition to cause trouble
and have accepted 1t only with grumbling
and protest a committee was sent to
the mine owners and certain demands
made which were refused. Afterward
a notice was posted at Miners Union hall
ordering miners to continue TO work.
This was taken by the operators to
mean that miners had finally agreed to
accept scrip until the district should
again be on a cash basis The action last
night, therefore, came as surprise to
the operators.
There is but one form of scripin Gold
field and that Is being accepted as cash
in all transactions except at the post
office and express offices.
The directors OIL tne lIoldnelo ConSOl-
idated Mines company met today and af-
ter extended discussion of conditions,
both local and general, voted to pass the
dividend for the current month. This
conclusion was the result, mainly, of
local labor conditions.
1t is believed in Goldfield that the strike
of today is the beginning of the end of
union domination in the camp, and that
when the mines again resume operations
it will be with an open camp and upon
their own terms of hours and wages.
DIES MONIES. Nov. 27.--After an al
days session in which 5000 miners in
pes Moines voted unanimously to quit
work unless they were paid in cash, in
stead of clearing house certificates and
cash as the operators proposed, the local
banks have come to the aid of the opera
tors, providing them with cash. All diff
ferences have been adjusted and the
miners have returned to work.

were from New York state, We're con-
victed and sentenced in 1905.
Numerous petitions and letters have
heen received by the state department
asking interference. but none Of the
papers bore any evidence of the innocence
of the men or doubt of guilt. The state
department found no ground upon which
to act.
Mrs Harte went to see Senator Culber-
son and Representative Smith OF Texas.
Their sympathy being aroused, they
awakened the interest of members of the
New York delegation who are here.
Those members of congress united with
the mother in the appeal to the Mexican
ambassador, who yielded his influence
more out of pity for the unfortunate
woman than by reason of the suggestion
made by the congressman.
