DAWSON COAL MINERS
HAVE BEEN LAID OFF
Shut Down OF Arizona SmeIt-
erS Given As Reason For
the Action,

According to the Stockman OF
Springer. n. NJ, very large number
of iaborerS, chiefly Italians, are being
laid off by the Dawson Fuel company
ut Dawson. y. NJ. because of the lack
on demand for coal caused by the
shut down of the Southern Arizona
smelters. The Stockman says OF the
situation:
Hundreds of miners and other en-
ployes in and out of the mines have
been let out of employment by the
Dawson Fuel company during the
past week, and every day many leave
Dawson for other parts OF the coun-
try. Most of the miners are Italians
and large per cent OF them who
have money are going back to Italy,
many families going. The force in
the company's Office has been reduced
over one-half and it is reported that
the public schools there will close the
first of the month. Several families
from there have already moved to
Springer and more are expected.
While some say it is only temper
airy close down, probably matter Of
only a few weeks, they do not know
as Inc. OFFICIALS are HOI SOY ING q WI u
Last week it was generally believed
that only single ment were to be dis
charged, but this week married men
were also let out. 1t is now reported
that there is little probability Of the
company resuming full operations be-
fore the fall election There are vari-
Gus other reasons advanced for the
closedown, among them the uncer-
tainty Of the copper market and the
tightness in the money market. The
Dawson mines are owned and oper-
alter by the Phelps-Dodge Syndicate
of New York, Who are also owners Oh
extgnsiye copper mines and smelling
industries in Southeastern Arizona
The Dawson coal and coke is mostly
shipped 70 these smelters. Tie cop
Uer market has had its effect on op-
eFztsons Of the syndicate in Arizona,
ard gOEae Of the shelters closed
4gEr, aenes the need Of less coal and
seke, fae result being less operating

Prescott IournalMiner.l

That the strike recently made in
the Octave mine is as good as report

will return today.
In addition to the bar two carloads
of concentrates were shipped yester-
day TO the plant of the Arizona-Mexi.
can Mining and Smelling company at

each, making an additional value of
