STRIKE REACHES ArCHIsoN.
Coal Miners Quit Work Because Their
Demands are Refused.

Coal Miners Quit Work Because Their
Demands Refused.
ATCHIsoN, April 26.-The strike has
reached Atchison and all but six of the
Donald coal miners have laid down their
tools, and quit work. The grievance is
entirely local. The men have been re-
ceiving $3.50 a ton, and demanded an
additional fifty cents ton.
Mr.. Donald informed them that their
demand could not be complied with, and
the men who would not agree to work at
the old prices were paid the amounts
due them. Word was sent to Leaven-
worth and Usage City, and it IS expected
that a sufficient number of men will be
here in few days to operate the mine
to its fullest capacity.
The number desired is in the neigh
borhood of thirty. W. T. F. Donald said
that he had hired four new men, and
that he will have a complete force in a
few days. He says the old miners struck
because they read in the papers that the
mine had contracted for $40 tons of coal,
believing that the contracts had to be
filled at once.
