Two Important railroad bills have aloo
been introduced. Each provldes for re-
duCtion in the passenger rate from three
10 two canls per mile, aad one iavorS q
freight Tato oil three cents ton per mile.
Owing to tho strong feeling existing
against the railroad companies Of the
State, there ia little doubt but that the
passenger tariff will be reduced.

has been preGensGd by Mr.. Bramsn. 1tis

Done Yesterday.
READING, Pa, Jan. 4-Ths fact tha
there is q coal miners strike in the scuyl-
kill regions is already perceptible all along
the main line and branches Of the Read
ing railroad. There is fearful stsgnation
in the coal traffic. During the twenty
four hours ending with noon to-day, but
l 1000 cars Of coal were sent through this
city, in place Of the accustomed 5000 and
9, 1000 cars in that time. The discharge of
the 400 men employed in the coal traffic
on the Reading railroad last night, it is
believed will be followed by many more
in few days. The company employs
!, 800 men made up into 400 crews, in haul
ing coal to tide water and interior points,
aud not one.fourth Of those will be re-
quired II the individual operators alone
continue working.
1t is learned at the Office OF the company
in this city that 1t will furnish individual
collieries for the present all the empty cars
they need and haul their coal, although
no contract has been made with them.
The company 10 mining hardly enough
coal for Its own purposes, and all that is
now sent down comes from collieries oper-
ated by private parties, but the output
will not near supply the cities and towns
and numerous industrial establishments
in the schuykill valley alone.
Many persons ere hopeful that the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company may re-
lieve the urgent necessities OF this Rec-
ton. The Superintendent OF the Penn
sylvsnis road, James Reed, Of this city,
says that company is now hauling 900
tons Of coal day and that this capacity
would be increased to 1000 tons The
general impression in this city is that the
miners employed by. individual collieIieS
will also strike when they And that It Is
being handled by non.union train men.
All the Reading company's forty.Gve
mines aro stopped and 10000 miners at
least are idle. Some place the number Of
idle men ss high as $1,000 in the sChuYl-
kill basin alone, which with 10000 in the
Lehigh, makes the number quite for
