Addresses were mado by several speakers, among them being James Bacon and John Welsh. The latter gontloman read tho re- vort of Thursday’s conference with Messrs. Barton and Nash from Tur Bek of Friday morning. It was evident from the th meeting opened that - there was a difterence of opinion among tho men, some being in favor of holding out until the ompun y granted eight hours work for every man, but the majority were strongly iu favor of gowg back to work. Considerablo feeling waus manifested, and after the meeting was over there we sevel very warm discus- sions indulged in on the street botween the two factions. The men who favored going back com- plained bitterly of the policy of tho leader: whom they accused of refusing to allow any of tho men to be heard, who advocated an immediate return, One of the men who came out of the meo ing before it was over, declared that the strikers had agreed mot to go back until . eight hours were granted for cach ~and every man, and that a schedulo of prices had been formulated as follows: Iurnacemen, $2; tappers, pot haul- ers, roaster tenders, kettlomen and all rofi ery men, £1.75, and roustabouts #£1.50. He was surd that the company would soon have 1o give in, as it hud 500 cars of ore sidetracked at various statious between here and Deunver and that the destination had been erased 5o as to leave no trace that they were en route to these works. He insiste tha the men could stay out until spring if necessary and six weeks without auy inconvenience. He was, in fact, one of the most rabid of the men, and said they would listen to nothing but acquicscence to their terms. Want to Go to Work. A very general questioning of others of the men eticited information of a very different nature. It is believed that_ fully 80 per cent of the men are not only ready but anxious to return to work, and scorcs of them insist that they are going back. Many of them ex- pressed a strong desire to retura to their places Monday morning. and so decided was this feeling that oven the leaders, who fought ainst it with all the force af their com- mand, were compelled to recognize it. In- deed, 'so manifest was it that hundreds of the men would report at tho smelter Monday morning, that just before adjournwent Bacon announced that the mea would next meet at the smelter gates at 6:30 o'clock Monday morning, to then and there submit another proposition to Mr. Barton.

The business men on South Thirteenth strect, in tho vicinity whero most of tho smelter employes reside, state without excep- tion that the general sentiment of the men is to get back 10 work. One merchant said that after caroful ingniry among them he had been fuformed that two of the leaders were still endeavoring to induce the minority to Lold out. The report was current on the streot in the vicinity of the hall that last night's meeting was called for the purpose of inducing the men to contribute £l each to set Bacon up business, inasmuch as Mr. y fused to take him back. A rel of ono of the men said that he had previously heard tho project broached at a meoting under tho Dougglas street bridge. “The leaders who were trying to hold the men in lne seomed very mich afraid that the general public would learn of the rapidly spceading disaffection within their ranks, and when several of those dissatisfied with the policy of the loaders were ly ex- pressing their fecling on the sidewalk, one of theso . men stepped up and _commande them to “shut up.
