SHELTER WORKERS STRIKE
Greek Employees of Utah Company
Demand Higher Wages-Ccm-
pany Refuses Request.

Advices received at the office of the
Utah Smelter company in this city this
morning state that the Greek employees al
the plant went out on strike Wednesday
evening at 8 o'clock. The information,
while lacking in many details, only stated
that 100 men had been let out and the
naceS Superintendent c. l.. Colbert is
in charge and states that he has the sit
uatiOn well in hand and does not look for
any trouble from the foreigners. Man
ager Bella Kadish, who has been out of
the city for some days, is expected to re-
turn this morning.
The Greeks made a demand upon the
superintendent for a raise of % cents per
day or a uniform scale of 50 per day in
stead of s2.75, which they were receiving
before they quit work. A committee from
their number awaited upon Superintendent
Colbert Wednesday evening and presented
they We're not granted. Their request was
refused and the men, numbering 100 were
discharged and the smelter temporarily
closed down.
An attempt will be made to replace the
strikers with men from other parts of the
state. Rumors were in circulation yester-
day that the strikers had threatened to
resort to violence If the company attempt
ed to replace them with other men. Su-
perintendent Colbert stated that he did not
anticipate any trouble and was deter
mined to re-employ the strikers without
granting their demands or else secure sew
eral shifts of foreigners not in sympathy
with the movement.
Although the Greeks belong to no union
or industrial organization, they are well
organized and are making preparations to
resist any attempt upon the part or the
company to Gust them. In the absence OF
Manager Kadish the situation is indefi-
mite, but upon his return ii is stated that
the smelter viii resume operations.

TO ABOLISH CUPS.
Ogden Health Authorities Against
Alleged EVIL.

The health authorities of Ogden have
put the ban on the tin drinking cups
which the grocers of the city have on their
vegetable stands, over which they KEEP
stream of water running all the time
The attention of the sanitary committee
had been called to the danger of disease
spreading from the cups and will urge
the grOcers to discontinue the use of the
same and let the stands remain for their
original use and not turn them into public
drinking fountains.
Members of the health department who
were interviewed upon the subject stated
that it would be an easy matter for an
epidemic to start over the city by the
use of the cups at the vegetable fountains
of grocery stores. The grocers commenced
the custom of placing tin cup under the
water flowing from the water taps upon
their vegetable stands, for the convenience
of the public, and little dreamed of what
the consequences might be.
The sanitary committee will make re-
port upon the tin cup question to the
council next Monday evening and it is
very probable that they will recommend
that some action be taken in the matter.

Game Law Questioned.

That the game law of Utah passed by
the recent legislature is unconstitutional
is held by T. r. o'Connelly, an attorney
Of this city, who had been asked for an
opinion upon the matter by a number
OF sportsmen of the county. The attor-
ney holds that the game wardens have
no right to arrest and search any per-
son without a warrant. after a care
full investigation" says O'Connelly, Il
give II as my opinion that section s OF
the game laws. whereby it endeavors
to confer such authority. is absolutely un-
constitutional Our legislature has no
such power and in trying to assume such
is acting in direct opposition to our con-
stitution and the constitution OF the
United States"

MINERS ARE SATISFIED.
Strike Report From Tintic Branded :
Vicious canard.

Eureka, Utah, Aug. 15.-Henry Matsch.
president OF the local miners union, to-
night denied the report published in a
morning paper in Salt Lake that the
miners here are demanding higher
wages. The vicious nature of the canard
is shown by these words used in the
paper referred to: Nothing more disas-
trous to the camp. both to the mines
and the miners, could occur at this time
than a strike"
The men are perfectly satisfied" said
President Matsch, ''and have no inten-
ton of asking any changes In the pres
ent agreements with the companies. ANY
report that they are on the point of MAX
ing demands upon the mine owners is
absolutely untrue"
