STRIKE SITUATION.
Work Partly Resumed at Some Iudiyidua
Collierles

Work Partly Resumed at Some Individual
Collieries.
READING, PA, January 26.-The par
tial resumption OF operations at few
mines in the Schuylkill region has as yet
had no visible effect on the coal shipments,
which are as meagre as at any time within
the past two weeks, averaging only so to 20
cars day. All the coal that is being
mined by the men who just resumed is
either reserved by the company for itsown
use, or sold in the immediate vicinity Of
the cOllieries. The Blandon Iron Com
pany, which operates large rolling mill
at Blandon, this county, has posted up no
tices that ten per cent. reduction in
the wages of their employees will go into
effect on February |, owing to the great
decline in the selling price of iron. The
advance in prices and the scarcity OF coal
is, TO doubt, also factor in fastening a
reduction in wages at this and other iron
mills.
1t is understood that the owners Of the
individual colleres are willing to pay the
8 per cent advance should they be allowed
to resume and ship their coal over any
road they desire. This would allow the
private coal companies TO take all the trade
away from the Reading company, and the
miners could earn large wages and lend
valuable aid to the strikers.
An official order 10 this effect may soon
be issued. aud some Of the labor leaders
coutend that it will be trnnp card, al
though the miners would hate to 90 back,
knowing that the conl they cut would be
handled by non.uniOn hands. Labor
leaders sincerely believe the railroad COM
pany would not stand idle and see their

have three ways of redress: First, by
raising tolls; second, by refusing empty
