Another strike has just been declared, because union plasterers from St Paul are permitted to work on the building, tbe local Plasters anion having declared against any more laborers coming to Butte. Tha Anaconda Copper Mining company, through ite manager, Marcus Daly, haa sent an ultimatum to several of the unions, which it la feared will precipitate a general strike. The ultimatum ia 'directed only to the Plasterersand Hod Carriers unions, but it is meant to be a notice to aU labor organizations.

DEED political effecL DEMAND UPON SPAIN- - Fir Prom laant - negotiations Have Reached aa Isa porta Hi Fhaaa. ria.,Oct, 4. The session of the peace commissioners lasted! until 4 oclock, at which hour the commissioner adjourned, to meet at I oclock next Friday afternoon, such Interval being desirable and necessary to allow separate consideration by each commission of matters before tbe joint commission. The interval will be thus filled with work by each commission, the nltimate results being so facilitated. The secretary of the Spanish commission will arrive tonight and the Interval will also be employed by the secretaries jointly la maturing plana for the work' of procedure. The opinion ia now held that th work of the commissions may he fin-- i ished within n month from the present time. While it is the general impression that the meeting waa again devoted to preliminary work and that tha adjournment to Friday was taken only to enable the secretaries to draw up a schedule of work, the report is current that the session waa highly important1 and that the Americana have made demand of such a character that tha Spanish find it necessary to ask for an adjournment In order to enable them to consult with the government at Madrid. It is believed that the question concerns the Philippines, and it 1 known that the Americans are highly pleased at having so soon reached what they consider a very important phase of the negotiations, and consider the two session thus far held as very satisfactory to America. The fact that a member of the commission expressed the belief that work wonld.be completed within a month indicates n happy frame of mind. In tbe Spanish camp great hopes are built on what they believe General Merritt will advise, namely, that the Filippinos are incapable of and that the whole situation does not warrant America ia taking the responsibility for the entire Philippines. The Spanish commissioners are quite ready to give whatever America asks in the way of coaling stations, but will resist more, to the verge of n renewal of hostilities. 1 f Martas Boise, Ida., Reteaa Acquitted.
