FROM THE nAWKEYE STATE.
A Threatened Strike of Coal Miners in the
Vicinity of Fort Dodge.
OBJECT TO A SUMMER SCHEDULE
The House Considers the Prohibition
Question in Committee of the
Whole-DcmocratsN Nicto-
rious at Davenport.

FORT DoDGE, Ia, April Especial Tcle-
gram to THE BEE. A general strike among
the coal miners of northwestern Iowa was
foreshadowcd today by the action of the Kale
miners in refusing to submit to a scale of
summer wages proposed by the owners of the
Craig mines. The contract which the miners
refused to sign was one reducing the price
paid for mining coal to sl.05 per ton. A
clause was also inserted to the effect that no
miner should quit work for any rea-
son except sickness, and should not
engage in any strike during the season. The
Craig company's miners one and all, refuse
to sign the contract, and if it is insisted on
they are prepared to strike. a similar con-
tract will be required by all the mine owners
in this vicinity from their men, and general
strike seems inevitable. The companies
claim that they cannot pay winter prices
during the summer without losing money.
Their agents say their mines will be shut
dewn during the summer unless the men
come to terms.

was eating up the people; that an American
article that sold in Sweden for ~ cents sold

Deepest Coal Mine in the World.

The deepest coal mine is at st. Andre

800, ,0O0 tons of coal. The mine is worked
with two shafts, one 1852 feet deep and
the other 3,0S3, says the st. Louis Re-
public. The latter shaft is now being
deepened and will soon touch the 1000
foot level. A remarkable feature in this
deep mine is the comparative low tenn
perature experienced, which seldom
rises above 757 Fahrenheit. The gold
