GOLDFIELD, Oct. 15.--All litiga-
ton between the Florence Goldfield
Mining company and the Little Flor
ence Mining company, has been
settled out of court to the satisfac-
ton of all parties concerned.
This adjustment involves not only
the $4,000 in dispute between the
corporations on the claim that it be-
longed to the leasing company, but
also the $2,50O,OOO damage suit
brought by the Little Florence
against the parent concern as an out
growth of Interruptions in the lease.
The attorneys in the case and
those directly involved were free to
confess last evening that the settle
ment was made as a result of conces-
sions from both sides. All concerned
realized the blow given to the Gold
field district by such a momentous
litigation involving many hundreds
of thousands of dollars and charac-
terized ample funds on both sides to
wage warfare that might have con-

FLORENCE
LITIGATION
IS SETTLED

away a little the compromise was
gradually reached and now both par
ties to the controversy are free to do
as they will without fear of molesta-
ton. The Florence has the richest
estate in the district. The Little Flor
ence lease mined perhaps the richest
ore ever taken out of the camp. A
tie-up between them not only worked
an injury to the industry here, but
greatly deprecated the value of the
two securities.
The terms of the settlement are
not made public, but will be embrac-
ed in the letters to be issued by the
two companies to their stockholders.
An order was issued by Judge Ian
gan of the district court yesterday
by which the $117, 1886 shall be
paid to the Florence Goldfield Min
ing company, or the parent concern.
This is the money claimed by the
leasing company as its net profit on
the Red King claim.
The stock market last night re-
flected the settlement between the
two big concerns. Florence proper
sold freely, the closing sale being at
$4.O5 or a decided advance over last
| week.

250,0OO MEN INVOLVED
IN SHIPBUlLDERS' STRIKE
Entire Industry of United Kingdom
May Be Suspended Because of
Attempt to Reduce
Wages
BY 4 Associatod Press.

BY Associated Press.
GLASGOW, May 2.-The Clyde ship
builders this morning locked out 5000
woodworkers from their yards. This
measure is tho outcome of the dispute
between the shipbuilders' federation
and the shipworkers of the northeast
coast, who struck rather than accept a
reduction in wages and who have not
been able to get the federation to arbi-
trate their demands.
Lockouts have been decided upon at
all the shipbuilding yards in the United
Kingdom, and workmen in other
branches gradually will be locked out.
There seems every prospect of a COM
plete stoppage of the shipbuilding in
dustry, a condition that will affect di
rectly 250,000 men.
LONDON, May 1.-The woodworkers
in all the shipbuilding yards of the
country, totalling about $4,000 men,
locked out today in pursuance of the
determination of the masters to close
their yards until the northeast coast
strikers agree to their terms. The
workmen in other branches, totaling
1mayn thousands will necessarily have
to cease work before long unless a set
tlement of the dispute is reached.
