GREAT STRIKE OF MINERS.

A Quarter ola Million Coal Miners in Eng

LONDON, March IA strike of coal min
ers was inaugurated Saturday which in
wolves the enormous number of $50, 900 men.
1t is thought, however, that it will be a
short one. Still, even a short stoppage of
operations will cause serious arrangement of
industries. If the strike lasts even one week
scores Of factories will have to be shut down,
throwing many thousands of persons out of
work. Prices of coal are advancing rapid
ly. The strikers say they have funds to sup
port them in idleness four weeks IL neces-
sary. There is no doubt that they can stay
out at least two weeks, and this will proba-
bly, suffice to bring about a concession of
their dmands.
Cannot Afford to Shut Down.
The large manufactures cannot afford to
shut down for lack of coal. IL the Engli
mines cannot furnish the regular supply
the Belgian and German mines can; and
when the British mine owner finds his Gus
toners supplying themselves from abroad
he will be compelled to make terms with
his men or sustain irretrievable loss This
is what the miners rely on, and past expert
ence justifies their belief. For it has always
been the case that with rising or firm
market for coal, the English miner could
force the mine owner to admit him to an
increased share of the profits of the business

The gifts of these gentlemen, conditioned
upon raising $35 900 in real estate and

and real estate (original cost, $11 ,600)

estimate Is not official. 1t is safe to say
that we now have one-tenth of the
amount needed. Besides these definite
favorable answers, we have encourage
ment from nineteen others who have
been seen, and we hope to re.
port many of their names one week
from today. Many remain to be seen
Some of the committee have been out OF

worthy of special mention. One gentle
man had been put upon the committee
without his permission because his help
was felt to be greatly needed. When he
was informed of the appointment he re-
