GOLDFIELD, Nev, March 13.-Bar
ring two or three street brawlS last
night, the past twenty-four hours have
been quiet in Goldfeld. The saloons
opened at midnight and most of the
mines resumed work this morning, very
few, however, with a full complement
Of men. The stores are all open.
This morning notice was posted on
the bulletin board outside of the In
duStrial Workers of the World quar-
ters calling on all laboring men of any
and all organizations to meet at the
hall and discuss matters of the wage
workers and see If their differences
cannot be adjusted.
The call emanates from the Indus
trial Workers of the World, who ap-
peared alarmed at the prospect of many
Of their members pulling away and
joining the American Federation of
Labor, which has many organizers in
the field, and fear also that many in
dependent unions will become affiliated
with the American. Federation, thus
putting the Industrial Workers of the
World on the defensive.
1t is not believed that this call will
receive a general response or interfere
with the plans of the American Fedora
tion organizers, who are making great
headway.
Expect Great Results
Business men expect great things
from this move. 1t will divide the In
dustrial Workers of the World and
throw another general organization,
composed of most of the skilled work.
men, into the field in opposition.
A movement started under cover yes
terday afternoon and which had gained
great momentum to go to the Jail and
take out Smith and Breston, held for
murder, and hang them, but the pris-
oners had been surreptitiously spirited
out of the camp.
Smith is president of the Industrial
Workers of the World. Work was re-
sumed upon nearly all of the largest
buildings this morning. The contrac-
tors armed their men and instructed
them to allow Of no interference with
their work.
Any one not employed on the job
was to be ordered off without parley,
and force was to be used when neces-
sary. The building trades are as cour-
ageous and determined as ever in their
resistance of the Industrial Workers of
the World.

BANKS WILL USE
GOVERNMENT coin
Thirty Million Dollars Deposited by
Uncle Sam Will Not Be Called
In at This Time--Must
Change Bonds
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, March 19.-The Sec
retary of the treasury today announced
that the S3O,OOO,OO0 which was deposited
in national banks the last of Septem-
Der, to be returned about the beginning
Of February, would not be called for at
present.
Beyond saying that he was keeping
a close watch upon the situation in
New York, Secretary Cortelyou would
not indicate what his plans were.
On October % the secretary of the
treasury authorized national banks that
had government bonds on deposit to Sc
cure deposits to substitute for the gov
ernments bonds, state and municipal,
provided they would use the govern
ment bonds so released to increase their
circulation.
Eighteen million dollars was fixed as
the limit of this increase. The secre-
tary provided, however. that this in
creased circulation must be reduced at
the rate of three millions a month. be-
ginning March 1.
May Retain Circulation
In view of the money situation in
New York, Secretary Cortelyou thinks
it is unwise to compel a compliance
with this order and therefore has stat
ed that the banks that took advantage
of this offer of October % may retain
their increased circulation, provided
they substitute Philippine, Panama or
Hawaiian bonds for the state and mu
nicipal bonds they now have on de-
posit.
The presence at the White House to-
day of six members Of the cabinet, who
called within q few minutes of each
other, gave rise to considerable specu-
lation regarding the purport of their
conference with the president. The i'm
preston gained ground that it was a
special meeting of the presidents ad-
visers to consider some question of
moment, but none of those present
would admit that his call was anything
more than a coincidence.
1t is known, however, that some of
the cabinet officers were sent for by
the president and in view of the state
ment issued later in the day by Sec
retary Cortelyou, it is believed that the
conference, at least with some of his
advisers, had to do with the financial
situation in New York.
Those who saw the president were
Secretaries Cortelyou, Taft, Metcalf,
Strauss Garfield and Attorney General
Bonaparte. Later Secretary Root spent
some time with him.
