Mining Matters.

COLUMBUs. o., September 6.-Superin-
tendent G. r. Carr, of the Columbus, Hook
ing Valley & Toledo Road, has sent long
telegram of friendly nature to Chris
Evans. of Straitsville district President Of
the miners union. informing him that un-
less the striking miners 90 to work within a
dav or two at the rates offered by operators,
that all mines at Straitsville will be aban-
doned by the syndicate. Straitsville is the
only mining town of consequence in Perry
County, whose Sheriff has refused to ask for
aid or take steps towards the protection of
property. Operators have concluded to con-
centrate guards at the miReS in Hooking and
Athens Counties at two or three places, and
hold the authorities OF Perry County re-
sponsible for all damage to property in that
county This order has not been given by
the syndicate, but is looked FOR i'll a day or
two.

rate To exceed fifty cents For night mes
sageS of not exceeding twenty words, eX-
elusive of date, fifteen cents for all dis
tances below two thousand miles, and for
