ROCKEFELLER'S TALK
.D TO HAVE ORDERED THE
STRIKE IN COAL FIELDS SET
TLED AT ONCE..
BY AStOCIArED PRESS.
Pueblo, Lolo., N,v. 2ta.-A special to the
Cthieftain from Trinidad says that John D.
Rockefeller has telegraphed officials of
the Colorado Fuel & Iron company at that
place that the strike must be settled at
once. The report has not been verified.
Mines Resuming.
Denver, Nov. t1.-Representatives of
every railroad entering Denver from the
east have agreed to make a rate of $3
a ton front the mines of Iowa, Missouri,
Kansas, Indian Territory and adjacent
fields. When the price of coal goes high
enough to make it profitable to import
coal at such a rate, it will go into effect.
In the meantime the independent mines
in the Northern Colorado fields are re
suming. Nine mines are now working
there, with a total of 28o men and a daily
output of 80o tons. Negotiations are under
way for the resumption of every independ
ent producer in the district by next Mon
day.
The settlement is on an eight-holtr
basis, with some concessions as to wages.
BYv AssOtCIATED PREfiR.,
Trinidad, Colo., Nov. ia.-lt was re
ported here last night that negotiations
were proceeding between the Colorado
Fuel & Iron company and the Victor Fuet
company and the operators in this vicin
ity, whereby a settlement of the dificul
ties mtay be reached by the end of this
week. This cannot be verified at either
union headquarters or at the offices of
the fuel companies, but neither will make
any direct assertion one way or the other.
GREAT FALLS DECISION
ESTABLISHES PRECEDENT
SPECIAL TO TIlE INTER MOUNTAIN.
Great Falls, Nov. ia.-Judge Leslie in
the district court today decided the case
of David Leadbettor against J. P. Fitz
patrick which involved) small amount of
money but a large principle.
The plaintiff is the Neihart constable
and the defendant the justice of the peace.
Some time ago the justice of the peace,
during trouble with his constable, appoint
ed another man special constable and gave
him some criminal papers to serve.
Leadbettor sued for his fees and the
question involved was the right of Judge
Fitzpatrick to appoint a special constable
when there was already one regularly
'elected.
Judge Leslie decides he cannot and holds
that Leadbettor is entitled to his fees.

MINES AND PLANTS
GENERALLY RESUME
tMORE MEN PUT TO WORK IN BUTTE
AND ANACONDA SMELTER IS
SOON TO START UP.
GREAT FALLS IS RUNNING NOW
Montana's Greatest Industry Will Soon
Be Going Full Blast and Pros
perity Will Return.
The mines of the Amalgatated Copper
company are now running full blast. The
work of lowering the tools, horses and
mules has been finished and the men are
'being put back to work as fast as possible.
It may be a day or two longer before
the full force of men is working, owing to
some necessary repairs at one or two of
the mines.
At Anaconda a big force is working.
The heating of the Ilast furnaces is a deli
cute operation. and while the ore is not
yet ready for the giant furnaces, it is nec
essary to have the men at their posts.
Great Falls Going.
Over at Great Falls a large amount of
ore is on hand and work has started up.
Not only is the industrial activity felt
on the hill, but in every line of business.
Llcrks who had been discharged on ac
count of the shutdown have been recalled
in several of the big stores and the gen
eral feeling is one of confidence.
There are few idle men in town at
present, where but it few days ago thon
sands walked the streets. The corners
where the men ustrally congregate are all
but deserted today. Those who wish to
work have reported for duty and have
been assigned to the several shifts.
Many of the men who left town under
the impression that work would not be re
sumned for several months will doubtless
return to their old positions.
Reports Cheering.
From every part of the state relports are
most encouraging. 'T'owns that were de
peldent upon the tIlining and milling in
dustries have felt the beneficial effects of
resmtnption of work.
The Ilutte. Anaconda & Pacific railway,
which laid off a number of men. has or
dered all hands to report for duty. The
same is true of the Great Northern, which
hauls an immense amount of ore front
Butte to Great Falls.

AGAINST LIVINGSTON
CITY LOSES IN ITS SUIT WITH THE
WATER AND ELECTRIC LIGHT
COMPANY.
SPEC('IAI. TO TIIE INTER MOU'NTAIN.
Livingston, Nov. Ir.--The I.ivingston
Water & Electric Iight company won its
case with the city in the district court to
day involving the payment of a large sum
of money for hydrant rentals. Judge Henry
decided in favor of the company upon all
of the points at issue and issued a per
emptory writ of mandate directing the city
to pay the claim forthwith.
The company recently commenced man
damus proceedings against the city to com
pel it to pay the water bill for the quarter
ending September I, amounting to $1,350o.
Judge lHenry issued an alternative writ and
after hearing arguments by the attorneys
for the water company and the attorney
for the city, upon a motion to make the
writ peremptory, reserved judgment until
today, when he announced his decision.
lie ordered the writ issued. The city
council will meet in special session tonight
to obey the court's dictum and pay the bill.
The city has raised the claim that the
pressure furnished did not come up to the
franchise provision. 'The question of the
legality of the franchise was also raised at
one time but abandoned because of the
statute limitations.
It is claimed by the parties owning the
water company that the refusal to pay the
claim was a part of a scheme to depreciate
the value of the plant that it might be pur
chased cheaper. It is not expected the
city will appeal from Judge Ilenry's ruling.

troduced in the American Federation ot
L.aor convention today to tIhe effect that
the so-called "open shop" policy, whether
under private or government manage
ment "cannot be recognized by organijrl

at once. Delegate J. Il. Mahlonl of Phila
delphia, presielnt of tlihe Cigar Makers' .n
ternational union, said President Roose
velt'a decisiol that the "open s1lhop" must
bie lainltailed ill all cases of federal em
ploym3ent was a "lap inll the face" for la
boring people.
Another delegate held that a public
"op'en sholp" colldutcted by President Roose
velt was just as adl as a private "open
shop" conducted by President Parry of the
National .M'atufaclturers' association.
D. A. ((ayes, president of the Inter
nationsl Association of tilassblowers, said
he was convinced that any delegate in
the conventioln would have acted just i.t
President Roosevelt did under the cireum
stances. lie contended that any objc¢-'
tions should not be considered at thil
convention, but should be suspended tntlh
the next election.
A motion that the -matter be sutmti
tuted to the commtittee on resolutions wuo
adopted.
The report showing a good financial con
dition was presented by the auditing corn
mittee. Ant unfavorable report upon the
resolution that the federation dona'e $S,ooo
to the Western Federation of Miners was
followed by a protracted debate.
'The resolution was referred back to

der an indictmnent for using the mails for

certificate or college degree, State Superin
tendent Welch is said to have beell one of
his victims. Mr. Welch some time ago

MINISTERS OPPOSE

GREAT FALLS DIVINES WARN
"FLORODORA" COMPANY NOT TO
OPEN THERE ON SUNDAY.
SP'ECIAI. TO THEll INTNi MOI'I'AIN.
Great Falls, Nov. s2.- The pretty sex
tette of "Florodora" will not dazzle the
youths and bhidherads of Great Falhi during
tihe present tour unuless John Cort of Seat.
tle, the manager of the Northlwest
ern theatrical syndicate, braves the
opposition of the Great Falls Minis
terial association and plays the conn
Spany here in the face of direct information
that the association will resort to the law
to sltop the lerforlnmance.
The gentlemlen of the cloth are not ol.
jerting to the character of the show.
What they don't like is the fact that
Manager IV. S. Fray of the G(reat ialls
()Opera house booked the aggregation of
pretty maidens for next Sunday evelinlg.
Sulllday performallnlce-s at the opera house
have been frowned on in the past anLI the
Illinisters do not ipropose to yield a point
dllring the present season.
Rev. Mr. Agar, on behalf of the asso
ciation of ministers, waited upon Manager
Frary today and served formal notice that
is the management attempted to give the
performance next Sunday evening both he
andil the managers of the show would be
arrested under section 530 of the ipenal
code.
Manager Irary saw the prospects of a
large box office sale shattered anild he was
loath to call the engagement off. Mentally
condemning blue laws and puritanical cus
tloms, he wired John Cort for inlstructions.
It is iup to Cort to say whether ithe opera
will be given here. The company will
probably agree to this, for if they were ar
rested they llight have to reimain lher sev
eral days to light the case, thus losing
other engagements.

NON-UNION SHOP A FAILURE
Local Plant Closes to Remove to State
of Washington.
The plant of the Quick Print printing
office located beneath the Ilirbour build
ing is being removed and shipped to Wash
ington state.
The place has been closed for some time
owing 4o the action of the Typographical
union in refusing to accept one of the pro
prietors into the union.
At the time of the application of the
member of the union it could not be shown
that the applicant had served an appren
4-ceship at the printing trade and the ap
plication was turned down. Then the in
stitution attempted to run independent, but
failed to secure any patronage.
Finding that a non-union shop would not
pay the proprietors decided to close.
