Martial Law Declared in Huer-

Walk Out.
FIGHT REDUCTION OF WAGES
Cessation of Labor Is Protest Against

the Part of the Company
Also Alleged.

Martial law was put in effect In
Huerfano county, Colorado, Novem-
ber IA.
State rangers, acting under instruc-
tions from Col. Patrick j. Hammock,
adjutant general, took charge just
few hours prior to the time set by
union leaders for strike In thirteen
mines Of the Colorado Fuel and Iron
company, employing $500 men. Re
duction of 80 per cent In wages was
the signal for closing of the mines by
a walkout, John P. McLennan, district
president of the United Mine Workers,
announced.
The strike order was effective in
thirteen of the twenty-six mines owned
by the company. McLennan declared
that the other thirteen mines would
be closed by sympathetic strike with
in few days. He declared that the
mines are "90 per cent union"
The company justified the decrease
in pay with a statement that the
miners wages were out Of proportion
with wages in other skilled lines that
reduced wages would mean more work,
reopening of more industries and re-
suit in cheaper coal to the consumer.
Union officials asserted that the reduc-
ton in wages was a violation of the
award of the bituminous coal wage
commission and asserted that although
the company disclaimed acceptance Of
the award, the company had been a
party to the deliberations of the COM
mission and was morally bound to OBJ
serve the award.
