After secret dcliberation the miners
conceded the price fixed by the opera
tors. and the scale was agreed to by
the joint convention amid wild enthu-
siasm. The scale is ten cents lower
than the original proposed by the
miners and an advance Of FIVE cents
over the prices paid in the Hooking
district the past year, and an advance
of six cents over the prices paid in the
Pittsburg district. 1t now seems prob
able that sponding prices will be
fixed in Indiana, Illinois and West Nir-
ginia. The operators Of those States
must now agree to prices satisfactory to
the miners or submit to strike, in
which they will have to fight not only
the miners of Ohio and Pennsylvania,
but the operators as well as the miners
Of their own States. The miners Of
Illinois and Indiana are confident that
the operators of those States will now
give them audience.
