be felt whenever need arises.

The mines of the Central Coal a.

1t is estimated that 600 miners
have been thrown out OF employ

of the mines.
For three months the mine at
Central City was closed. while a new
tipple was being erected at a cost
of $4,000. When the tipple was
completed operations were resumed
for a brief period, and then the dis

orators want the two arbitrators to
call in a third party, who will be
given the power to settle the differ
ences. The miners will not agree to
this, saying that the contract they
have with the operators of the Cen
trial Coal and Iron Company will not
permit it.
President Walker, of the Mine
Workers Union, says that all of the
officials of the union are backing
him in the stand that he has taken.
He said that there was no trouble

for the closing down of the mines.

The demand for coal in the West
