THE MINING SCALE.
CONCESSIONS ON BOTH SIDES.
Ohio .nd Pennsylvanis Miners and oper-
ators Come 10 Terms.

The prices for mining for the coming
year have been fixed and the interstate agree
ment revived by the miners and mine oper.
a;ors Of Ohio aud Pennsylvania. This is the
resul; Of a decided change in the sentiments
Of both the miners and operators attending
the Joint convention NJ Columbus q. Con.
sessions were made on both
sides. Through Committee on
Conference the difference between the
miners AMI operators was re- luced to a mats
ter Of cent. the ultimatum of the operators
being 20 cents for the Hooking Valley and
~ cents for the P,tsbGrc district, while the
minerr demanded Il and - cents respective.
ly for the two districts. After secret de,
liberation the miners conceded the price Fix
ed 10y the operators and the scale was agreed
TO by the joint convention amid wild en-.
thusiasm, The scale j. lO cents lower than
the original proposed by the miners and an
advance Of cents over the prices paid in the
Hooking district the pas, year and an al.
vance Of & cents over the prices paid in the
Pittsburgh district.
Il now seems probable that corresponding
prices will be fixed IN Indiana, Illinois and
Wes: Virginia. The operators Of those
States must now agree to prices satisfactory
20 the miner, or submit 90 strike, in which
they viii have 20 Gght not only the miners
OF Ohio and Pennsylvania. but the operators
as well a. the miners of their own States
The miners of Illinois and Indiana are con.
hdent that the operators of those states will
now gre chem audience. Il is sal the
operators of the Two states while not will.
ins 20 NEE. with the operators Of Ohio and
Pennsylvania, are ready TO confer with
their own miners
!n view Of thi, fac, a joint convention Of
mine Operators and miner. will probably he
held al indianapolis Apr. - and a convcn.
ton of the Illinois operators at st. Louis
Apr.l -3d. The miners Of these two States
alN royea the scale adopted for Ohio aud
Pennsylvania, believing that their action
would be approved uy their constituents.
HE advance IN prices of mining will not
materially aGoc. the lgEe cos. trade. which
has already opened and will continue
through tie season of nav cation. The buy.
ers Of coal IN the Nor,hvcs: will simply
have 60 Jay more for the coal 4 prominent
operator said the advance might possibly
narrow the ma:ke, fu- Onio and Pennsy..

THE WAGES OF RA1LRoADERs
The Statistics Gathered by Labor Com
miss ouer Wright


Labor Commissioner Wright has made his
ffth annual report The single subject
treated is railroad labor. The report shows
that on June 30, 1853, the whole number of
railroad corporations in the United States
was approximately l7is, and tue mileage Of
these roads, approximately, l6,40j miles.
The number Of employees on all of the rail
roads Of the country on that date was 0Sp, =
9l2.
For the purposes Of the commissioners
investigation the railroads Of the country
were divided into seven geographical groups
in which the general conditions of labor
were Of like character as follows: The New
England group the Middle Atlantic group
the Central South Atlantic and Gulf group.
the Central Northern grUup, the Southwest
ern group Northwestern group and the
Pacific group. Sixty railroads were selected,
representing all parts Of the country and all
conditions of railroad labor
The number of employees connected with
these GO Oruads in these several groups then
were found to be 24l $40 employees Upon
investigating the subject Of the relations Of
employees and corporations as to 60 roads by
which the real railroad business Of the coun-
try is performed, it was found that ~ roads
maintain beneficiary institutions, and few
pay hospital expenses while men injured in
She service are being treated. A very few
pay taxes for the support Of state and county
institutions. Three or four contribute 20 re-
lief funds and several furnish club
houses for certain classes Of employees
SIX companies assert that they pension their
sureranuated employees and also their per-
manently disabled people. A few give su.
pcranusted employees light work or allow
halftime pay. while a number make settle
ments upon the permanently disabled.
Two hundred and sixty.six companies re-
tain in their service permanently disabled
employees, the number of such on the rolls
at the close Of the year 1855 being 3l.l. 4
very large number Of roads also provide
som, system Of technical educational schools
for their employees and IN some cases for
their families.
