The mectin e of miners and operators
to be held in this city today and tom ,r.
row is one OF the most important to the
labor interests o: the coal producing
states that has been held in many years.
The leading object is to formulate and
adopt a schedule OF mining rates for one

a;ions have been made for 81 large gath
ering, and the sessions will be hell in
the board Of trade room unless it should
be found there is not suffic Gent room
there for the transaction of the business,
then they will adjourn to the City hall.
Outside of the leading idea of the con-
ventiou, no definite program has been
prepared, but this will be arranged ut
the first session which is to begin at 10
o'clock this morning. This conference
will be followed on Thursday by a
meeting Of the representatives. Of the
miners of western Pennsylvania. Oaio,
Indiana, and northern Illinois, with a
view to organizing the four districts in
to one and under one head. These
districts are active competitors for the
lake a, d Western trade.
1t was expected that quite large
number Of the miners and operators
would arrive on the trains during the
night. The only operator who hid ar
rived yesterday was Mr.. Youmans of
Indiana. who was on change at noon
circulating among the members. A.

MT. PLEASANT, Pa, February
22.-No violence was offered the
workmen this morning when they
went into the various pits in the
northern end of the region. The
Huns at Mayfield and Donnelly
had a lively time last night in
parading and raising a general
; racket. but nobody was hurt
They were to busily employed at
home to get over to this place,
and everybody interested was as
we'll satisfied. Of the various
plants Mcclure & Co. have but
few men working at Mayfield.

and Diamond.in the Jacobs Creek
Valley, are filled with men,
Morewood charged twenty-five
ovens, Tarrs ran half full. all the

pany. Alice, belonging to the
Schoonmaker &c Co. ran but two
hundred wagons of coal. Frick's
Standard charged fifty ovens,
Mnllin. Str,ckler & Go. twenty
ovens, and Cochran's plant had
a full run Of men, as also had
West & Overton, operated by

a meeting atnStandard tonight,
at which 1t was decided to go to
work in the morning and con-
tinue to labor until Wednesday,
when further operations will be
suspended in case the prisoners
are not discharged from Jail.
At Connelsville all tho reports
received indicate that the great
strike is really ended. There was
some trouble in different works
to-day of a local nature, but it is
likely these troubles will all be
settled in a satisfactory manner
tomorrow. The delegate meet.

cided at this meeting that each

Representative Buerhaus.

Our Representative, Mr.. Buer

others We notice, a bill to imprison

burns property of a value exceeding
City dollars.
Also bill authorizing village
councils TO organize a fire depart.
ment, and provide for its efficiency,
aiming to the security of property,

Another bill he has introduced pro-
vidcs that Justices of the Peace shall
have full power to punish and fine,
when the accused confesses.

straitsyflle Strike.

STRAITsvILLE, o. Feb. 23.-The
miners at Black & Cos. mine, To-
Gated between here and Shawnee,
have come out and refused to
work. Tie reason for so doing is,
that, at the time that mining was
settled at sixty cents per ton. the en-
try men were to receive fifty cents
advance on tho yard. On last pay
day this amount was held back ,and
refused to the men working at en-
try work, thereby causing a strike
The mine has been closed until the
matter is settled. How long this
will last cannot be determined.

is flowing freely. Those engaged
in the enterprise, however, are,

Chinese empire, except the provin-
ces of Tuong Tung, whose citizens,
becau~e of their superior numbers,
are required to pay half fare. Tho
proclamation, while it emhOdies no
threats, broadly intimates that the
Chinese government intends TO re-

American residents in China for
