AMERICANS ORDERED TO LEAVE
Bribe Offered to Murder Amer
ican Superintendent and His
Two Assistants.

Ell Orc, Mex, Aug. 1.-Quiet pre-
vailed this morning in this mining
town, where yesterday troops fired in
to a mob of striking miners, killing
nine and wounding 80 persons. Four
hundred federal soldiers arrived here
today to reinforce the eco troops from
Toluca and it is believed they will
be able to preserve order and protect
property.
| The striking miners are congregat-
ed about the streets in sullen groups
but apparently awed by the presence
of the troops and contenting them
selves with haranguing and jeering
the soldiers. In all $500 men are
] idle.
The discovery that bribes had been
offered for the killing of the American
mine superintendent and his Ameri-
can assistants, caused the manage.
ment OF El Orc mine to declare a
practical lockout today and ask the
federal government to make fu,. in
vestigation of the motive of the strik-
ers.
1t is said the demand of the strikers
for higher wages is only incidental
and that their real motive seemingly
is antagonism to foreigners. Posters
distributed throughout the town or
der foreigners to leave the camp and
declare the Mexican miners propose
to run the mines themselves. Several
dynamite bombs have been found in
the mines The first group of miners
to declare strike were those at Las
Esperanzas mine and they were
quickly followed by Ell Gro and Dos
Estrellas workmen. The smelters
are continuing operations, the surface
/ men refusing to join the strike.
