WHERE MINERS ARE SCARCE
Superintendent laval Says There

Superintendent laval Says There
VIII BE No Reduction in Wages.
WILKEsDARRE, Pa, July "a. - The
situation among the miners of the Le-
high and Wilkesbarre collieries at Ply
mouth is unchanged. There is consider
able dissatisfaction among the men on
account of the recent importation of a
couple of hundred miners from the
Schuylkill and PunxsutaYny region.
1t is not unlikely that a misunder-
standing of the situation may precipi.
tate u riot, though if the matter can be
tided over couple Of days everything
will be safe. Superintendent Z. H..
laval asserts most positively that there
has been no reduction in wages, and
none is contemplated. He says that the
men imported are all competsnt mine
la aborers. and are brought Here to add
to the force, not to displace any of the
men now at work.
The colliefies of the company lack
fully 1900 miners and laborers. Short
work for several months has induced
great numbers to leave here, and the
extent of the removals was not ap-
preciated till the company wished to re-
sumo on full time. All the coal COM
panies of this section complain OF
q scarcity of hands. The Wyoming
valley alone lacks fully 5000 of the
complement necessary to make full
time
