SPECIAL TELKGRAM TO THE DISPATCH:
PUNxsUTAwNY, April 10-The great strike
between the Rochester and Pittsburg Coal and
Iron Company and their former employees Is
virtually at an end. The company is running
its mines full time. with an average daily out
put of over l.S50 tons of coal per day at Adrian
mines, and l,2Oo tons at Walston. The entire
coke plant at Adrian is in operation, 4oO ovens
turning out 2S cars of coke each day. The
ovens are making q and 96-hour coke, and the
analysis shows the best coke ever produced at
these works. The company officials say that
they have not had a car of coke returned nor
heard of single complaint. Seven hundred
and forty-six men are on the pay rolls at
Adrian alone, and when one man leaves an
other one is ready TO take his place. Forty
two thousand tons of coal and II $40 OF coke
were produced at Adrian for March.
The Pinkerton men have all left but Six. who
are watching nights. Several of the striking
miners families have moved out of the COM
pany houses The expectations are that the
remaining families who live in company houses,
will be evicted in a few days. as they are three
and one-half months in arrears for rent.
Everything is quiet. Business is picking up in
since pay at the mines. The
Rochester and Pittsburg Coal and Iron Com
pany PAID out $4,000 cash Saturday.
