Miners Laid Off at Butte.

Butte, Mont.-Although 5000 miners
and top men are idle, owing to the ac-
tion of the Miners union in demand
ing an increased scale of wages May
list, no apprehension is felt that any
of the mines will close down. One
thousand men in addition to the 1000
laid off were discharged to-day. 1t is
understood that it will be the policy
of the operating companies in the flu
ture to pay the scale, but to employ
only about half as many men as al
present. Only the most urgently nee.
essary development work will be car.
ried on. Sufficient ore bodies have
been blocked out in the larger proper
ties to keep good force of skilled min.
ers ut work for the next fifteen years.
