MINERS GATHER RIFLES
Detective Patrol Discovers Hidden Guns
-Non-union Men May Operate
Goldfeld Mines.

GOLDF1ELD, New. Dec. 9.-While
Goldhcld seems to be in peace. it is
evident that the death struggle between
the mining operators and the radica!
members of the Western Federation OF
Miners is reaching crisis.
That the miners have armed them
selves to resist the federal soldiers if
necessary to hold their power i'll the
camp was proven by the finding Of Il
store of rifles cached within Il short
distance of the town.
Capt. Sage Of the Consolidated Mines
company detective patrol was the one
who found the hidden arms. There were
100 rifles of the latest and most deadly
kind in the pile. This is only part OF
the arms and ammunition which the
miners have collected during the last few
days.
Despite the warlike mood of the strik.
ers, Capt. William Cox. the representa-
tive of Gov. Sparks in Goldfeld. states
that the Mine Owners association will
attempt. during the week. to reopen the
mines here with n0n-union men. This
information has been communicated to
the governor. 1t is thought plenty of
non-union men can he hired here.
