CHANlcS WILL NOT
TAKE WORK


BUTTE, Mont, June 27.-More
miners appeared for work today, but
the mechanics called out by the
strike order failed to appear. 1t is
expected that the mines win close

All boilermakers and machinists
employed by the four largest mining
companies and one mill in the Butte
district, were called out yesterday
by their unions. who charged that
the electrical work was being done
by non-union men. At some of the
mines the blacksmiths also quit.
The companies affected by the
Htrike order are the Anaconda Cop
per Mining company, the East Butte
Copper Mining company, the Elm
Orlu Mining company, the Timber
Butte Milling company, and the
Butte and Superior Mining company.

EVADANS
IN
RECRUITING
ENRoLLs NEARLY FOUR TIMES
HER QUOTA IN THE REG
ULAR ARMY

WASHINGTON, D. c., June H.-
Responses to President Wilson's
proclamation calling for 10000 vol
unteers for the regular army during
the present week are coming slowly
Only 1851 we're obtained yesterday,
according to returns from all parts
of the country
Twenty-six states reported each
had secured under ten recruits yes
terday, three states none at all.
Nevada has set the mark for the
rest to shoot at, with her volunteers
exceeding her quota by almost four
to one. She was called on for 162
and has enlisted $50.
Oregon and Utah are neck and
neck for second place, with 200 per
cent over the enlistment Vermont
is at the other extreme, with 79 en-
listed in quota of 10.
While the figures nearly doubled
the low mark for daily recruiting
set last week, officials were much
concerned over the absence of a
rush to join the branch of the ser
vice certain to be first to face the
Germans in France. II is hoped that
as recruiting week proceeds and with
the tremendous campaign the news
papers of the country are conducting,
the daily total will be swelled to
four or five thousand men.
/ New York showed the results OF
T the campaign that has been waged
+ by the metropolitan newspaper. A
total Of 325 men was obtained In
that city. Illinois, despite the fact
that the states quota is nearly 1000
over recruited already, added 49,
men during the day. Pennsylvania
supplied l47 Massachusetts,, S5 and
California IS.
The total number of war volunteers
obtained since April l IL now 1875.

jority OF the regiments are close e

DATELESS- While General Halg
Is closing SO closely ON Lens that It's
capture seems imminent, 1t is
question whether the British opera
tion will be accompanied by a French
offensive of like scale.
1t Is evident that the allies intend
to cause convocation of the Greek
parliament of May. 1915. which was
controlled by Vanizelostis, having a
majority favorable to the entente
cause
The slow, but sure, encirclement
of Lens, the important coal center
held by the Germans In the depart
ment of Pas de Calais, is in process
of consummation by the Canadians.
Having already during the present
captured important vantage points
west and southwest of the town,
fresh smash at the German lines has
been rewarded by the occupation Of
the village of La Coulette, situated
mile to the south.
With the British forces virtually
enveloping the town, except on the
east, the Germans already have ceas-
ed the mining of coal in the. imme-
diate vicinity of Lens, thereby seem
ingly indicating that they realize
that their tenure OF the position is
short lived.

German line.
The infantry activity in the region
