PRESIDENT CosTELLo's OPINION.

President Costello was shown the state
meut. He read it and then said: 'sOh, that
does not prove anything. We have atii-
davils showing that certain operators did
violate the agreement. They had better
not commence 10 call US to account on the
question of honor +. l.. Robbins dis
charged II Of his men tor no other reason
than 3hcy attended convention of miners,
and when | visited him could get no salts
faction from him. If he had wanted to live
up to the agreement, he would have those
men working for him to-day"
Mr. Costello left last night for Columbus
10 attend the meeting OF the General Execu-
tive Board to-day. The President of each
district in the four S ates has been called
10 Columbus, and il is believed the eight
hour fight will be ordered to-day. This
action was exclusively predicted in Thurs

MISCELLANEOUS INDUSTRIAL NEWS

Yesterday was an eventful day in the
miners strike. Several additional mines
came out. and President Costello said last
night that there would not be four mines
working next week. The operators show
fight, however, and insist that the agree
ment Of May , must be enforced. The
miners are jubilant over the fact that the
river operators are in position for once to
help them win the strike 1t is SAID there is
coal amounting to nearly %, 900, 600 living in
harges along the Monongahela river ready
to be shipped South as soon as a rise in the
river comes. If a demand comes for the
coal here they would naturally dump the
whole of the 10000, 600 on the Pittsburp
market in preference to waiting for the rise.
This would mean a big loss to the railroad
operators. and the miners think would have
much to do with forcing their demands for
more ray.

The weather during the past two weeks
has been exceptionally stormy and wet, the
wind at times increasing to the velocity of a
gale. There is a general opinion that it is
the coolest winter we have had for many
years. One thing is certain, that it is too
cold for the field labourers, especially the
coolies, who cannot remain at work for any
length of time; and no malingering about it
either, for the cold has crowded the hospi-
tails with patients, the m tjority of them
suffering chiefly from chest complaints, many
of them of a serious type and ending fatally.
Even Europeans feel the cold, especially at
night, and pull an extra sheet over them.
The Thermometer has registered G8 to 20
in some of the country districts and in town
it has been down to 70, which may not be
considered a low temperature by those who
are reading thermometers at so many degrees
below zero but the wind being heavily
charged with moisture feels raw and cold.
The young canes are looking shrunken, and
