The Anaconda Copper mine
which had decided to close down
on account of labor troubles has
resumed work again as the follow
ing press despatch explains:
Butte, Mont,, Nov. 22. Special.
This afternoon the 500 smelter
men of the Anaconda Copper Co.
accepted the reduction of 15 per
cent and went to work. Their new
concentrator will be started up
soon, which will add forty tons of
copper per day to their production.
The men had been receiving
3.00 per day and the reduction is
the result of a compromise be
tween the manager of the" Ana
conda and the Knights of Labor.
The Fate of The Apaehee,
A correspondent of the Chicago
Tribnne writing from Washington
has the following to S3y in regard
to the Apaches sent to Florida:
"The fate of the Indians captur
ed in the Miles campaign is practi
cally settled. It was not decided
when they were first sent East
whether any of them would be
tried for crimes or not. The Presi
dent has examined the case very
carefuhy and has come to the con
elusion that life confinement for
all of these Indians in Florida,
where tney can do no harm, will
be the most thorough punishment
which can be visited on them. It
would be a travesty on justice to
have these Indians tried in Ari
J X- mi
jt.uu Biiu iew aiexico. mere is
not a whiio man in either one of
those Territories who could sit in
a cr.se involving the rights of an
Indian with any kind of fairness.
The conviction of the criminals
would leave their families un
touched. These families would
train np children to revenge the
deaths of those who were punish
ed, and the result would be a con
tinuation of the lawlesness which
for years has made life and prop
erty so insecure in the two Terri
tories. As a matter of fact the 500 In
dians transferred to Florida have
leen sentenced to a lingering
death. They have been brought
tip in the mountain countries, ac
customed to freedom in the pure,
cold air of high altitudes. Their
transfer to and confinement in the
warm climate of Florida will sim
ply result in their dying off like
so many shSp. Experienced army
offtV-ers do not think that there
will bo one of them a'irr at the
c-eJ of the rest five years."
