DEADLOCK AT
GOLDflELD
Miners Leave Conference Room
When Asked for a PLEDGE
Against |. ". W. MeddIins

Goldfeld April 9.-After the
meeting of the joint committee late
this afternoon it was learned that
there was split which will doubt
less now defer negotiations be-
tween the miners mad mine-owners
for some time longer. The mine
owners made certain demands which
debar the miners from participating
in any strikes or boycotts that here
after might be iaugurated by the In
dustrial Workers of the World. 1t
was feared by the mine-owners that
while the miners might withdraw
from the l. w. w. in name, they
would still be with them in senti-
ment and cooperate with that or
ganization in any campaign 1t might
wage against those business men
who have been active with the mme-
owners against the /. w. w, and a
demand covering this point was In
corporated in the plan OF settlement
miners today. On this point the
miners arose and left the meeting,
saying that there was no further rea-
son for their deliberations, as the
miners would stand by the Indus
trial Workers of the World in fact,
If not in name. The mine-owners
gave out after the conference the
substance of their demands, upon
which they will stand, whether the
finish comes soon or year rom now
and which was as follows:
THAT miners will not strike until
after a vote of the miners at work
in the district, as prescribed In sec
ton |, article of the constitution OF
The Western Federation of Miners,
which provides for a three-fourths
vote in the Affirmative. That the
operators are not to shut down or de-
clare lockout without similar
vote; that the miners will not par
ticipate in any sympathetic strikes
or boycotts that may be inausurated
by the Industrial Workers of the
World; that the miners and the
miners and the mine shall
execute an agreement for definite
time emhodying the above provis-
ions. based upon the present scale
scale of wages and hours of labor :
The demands project a practically
new casus belli in the situation. but
the mine-owners are serene in the
belief that they will finally accom-
out of Goldfield all elements of dis
cord and strife and put conditions
on a peace able and prosperous basis

WELL KNOWN YOUNG
MAN UNBALANCED
Believes Wife Kept Men in tlouse-ls
Taken to Former Home in lndi-
ana by His Father.

A we'll known young man who Tor
some time has been employed in one
of Rock Islands big stores, was taken
to his former home at Button, Ind,
Saturday by his father, and his wife
states that her husband has become
mentally unbalanced and threatened to
take his own life. He has been under
the care of physicians for some time,
and recently was taken to a sanitorium
for treatment. His affliction is said by
his wife to be hereditary, and shows
itself in only one way. He is stated to
have labored under the impression that
his wife was unfaithful to him and was
keeping men i'll the home. The men
he referred to are among his best
friends and of unimpeachable charac-
ter. Last week, when his wife, believ-
ing that some step should be taken,
suggested that they send for their
fathers, his wife states, he threatened
to cut his throat. He has
never attempted to harm her, nor
threatened her. In fact, they have
been deemed a model couple and their
home life has been unmarried by any
difficulty. The wife is preparing to
take her little baby and return to her
| former home at Wiltshire, Ohio.
