Jtbst within 18 houri the mines coulo
be opened with tbe aama number ol
men aa were formerly at work in
them. One concern In Ban Francisco
It la aald. offered to aend 1,000 men
on an hour'a notice.
Tbe officers ot the association say,
however, tbat In their belief there
are enough men In tbe camp who
will leave the union now to make
tha Importation of men onneceaaary,
and tbey are looking for these men
to make application early in the
week. It le impossible, the operators
say, for them to get enough men In
tbe mine at present to operate tht
pomps and keep them clear of water.
Cave-ins are constantly taking place,
and otber damage Is being wrought
by reason of tbe Inactivity.
No unusual excitement was eausec
by the arrival ot the first detachment
ot troops and the crowd that gath
ered at the depot quickly disperseo
after the troops had marched to tht
mess,' In the northwestern part of th.
city, where they bave gone Into tem

Mlnera' Union, in which he aays:
There la no aane man in tbe dis
trlct who will aay that there was an:
need tor the federal troops in Gold

The paper says editorially:
"It ia evident that the Mlneown
era' Association intends to re-enar
tha tragic scene ot Colorado. The
coming of tbe troops means notbln,
short of that. Violence and dlsorde
will ensue npon tbe arrival ol th
troops and it la apparent that th
gloomy history ol coioraao ia to rx
rewritten."
A statement to the public by the
Ooldfield Mine Operators Associa
tion states In the beginning that "re
nested outrage against Indlridua
rlghta and banishment from the camt
of men desirous ol investing in in
mines, open looting of every mine
carryins- high grade ore and daedt
of violence have become so unbear
able tbat the owners must either
close the mines, hand them over tc
the union, or make a desperate effort
to rain the right to work them aa we
please. We have choaen the latter
alternative, and propose to make on
final atruggle for the right to man
age our own property."
