Goldfield, New, Dec. 9.-Captain
William Cox, Governor Sparks repre-
sentative in Goldfield, states that he
has information from the Mine Own
be made during the week to reopen
the mines mere with nonunion men.
The Information has been communi-
Gated to the governor, and is in the
hands of Colonel Alfred Reynolds COM
manding the Federal troops. Officials
of the Mine Owners association re-
fuse to say positively that such is the
case, but every indication points to
the fact that Wednesday next has
been decided on as the day when the
attempt will be made to put men in
the mines. If there is to be a clash
between the members of the Western
Federation of Miners and the Federal
soldiers it will come at that time.
There are now nine companies of
troops here, the second detachment
from Monterey having gone into camp
on Combination Hill, within 800 yards
OF the mill of the Goldffeld Consoli-
dated company. The first detach-
ment, which came from San Francis
co, remains in the camp established
in the northwestern part Of the city,
a mile and a half from the nearest
mine. Colonel Reynolds refuses to
say whether he will detail soldiers to
patrol the mines when the attempt is
made to reopen, but merely states
that the troops are here to preserve
order Sheriff Ingalls, is not here and
the sheriff's Office is in the hands of
Under Sheriff Bert Knight. who as
serts that he is amply able to handle
any crisis that may arise.
He has sworn in a dozen deputies.
He characterizes the statements made
by the mine owners that the union
men are arming themselves and pre-
pairing to make trouble, as false, and
says that in his belief there will be no
effort made to prevent the mine own
ers from working the mines with what
ever men they may employ A tele
gram which the sheriff sent to Cover
nor Sparks, protesting against the
presence Of federal troops in Goldfield
remains unanswered.
All Of the mines are picketed at pre-
sent by union men, and, according tc
the statement of the owners, it is i'm
possible for the owner or manager OF
a property to visit his property to
know what condition it is in, much
less to put men in the mines to work
the pumps.
Both sides declare that the fight is
on and that it is to a finish. The day
has been remarkably quiet.
Martial law has not been proclaim
ed and the officers and troops have
remained in their camps.
Saptain Sage, of the Consolidated
mines company detective patrol. re
ported last night that he had seized
100 rifles that had been cached a short
distance from Goldfield.
This is presumed to be a part OF
the cache of arms and ammunition
which it is represented the miners
have collected during the last few
days.
