ANOTHER Coal STRIKEIN PENNSYLVANIA :
A dispatch from louisville, Pa, says: dis
patches received here to-day trom all the dis
trlcts in the Schuylkill region represent that al
meetings of miners all had decided to strike,
rejecting 1925 as basis, demanding mini
mum basis of 50 SO on contract work and 81 Is
for day work, and in some instances demanding
higher rates. The men are very determined,
the basis question having been thoroughly dis.
cussed, and they are better prepared for a
strike than ever before. There is much differ
ence of opinion among coal operators as to how
long the strike will continue aud what length
of time the men will be able to stand out, many
believing that it will continue until the middle
Of April or the lst of May, aud some think
that compromise may be effected by the l7ih
of the present month"
