The Mining Situation.

The return of w. B. Wilson to the
region Monday occasioned more inter-
est in the suspension than the few
days previous had shown. He arrived
on the forenoon train and at once pro-
ceeded to business. Before leaving
Cumberland, however, he had been
enjoined from interfering with the
Consolidation company's property or
employees. A keen, sharp, smart
man, he does not seem to mind in
functions much, holding that peace
able and lawful persuasion is Just his
style. In all his public addresses he
impresses the commanding admonition
upon his followers to keep safely with
i'll the pale of the law.
Tuesday no demonstration against
the men working was made. During
the afternoon a small body assembled
in the vicinity of Allegany mine, to
whom an address was made by Mr..
Wilson. The sheriff came up on the
train later and summoned Mr.. Wilson
and several others who had been en-
joined to appear in court next morn
ing.
The men went down Wednesday,
but the hearing was postponed until
Thursday at 9 a. m. AT o'clock a
meeting of several hundred was held
at Midland to hear the report of the
delegates to the Cleveland conventions
Addresses were delivered by Mr..
Wilson and others. a resolution was
adopted defining the meetings. plat
form as follows:
/. TO stand firmly for 80 cents per ton for
mining.
,, That when a settlement with the en-.
| ployers is effected all employees shall be
reinstated.
3, That all company stores shall be
abolished.
4, That docking shall also be done away
with, and
5. That acknowledgment shall be permitted
to see that the miners get credit for the weight
to which they are entitled.
A motion condemning the Mine
Inspector for favoring the side of the
companies was adopted. Also, one
appointing three delegates from each
mine to meet the mine-owners soon as
practicable.
Thursday there was no change in
the situation except that few more
men went to work. The hearing in
Cumberland was again postponed-to
take place to-day, when, it is expected,
full bench will sit.
Yesterday friday morning 81 Vale
Summit men voted by ballot for and
against going to work OF tn num-
Der 10 voted atfirmatlvely and 81 neg
atively. The whole number thereupon
returned home.
This morning some of the men who
staid out of Hoffman yesterday re.
sumed work, and an increase of force
Is also reported from Eckhart and
Allegany. Enough has been conveyed
to the region from the companies to
show that they will not deal with any
miners, local or foreign, under organ
ization auspices. Proceedings in the
contempt case are in progress. About
fifty persons went down this morning
