GREAT COAL STRIKE ON
Over 100000 Miners Throw Down
Their Pics.
The "ClImbout" Extends From PennsyL
vania to Colorado Manufacturers
Fear n Fuel Famine--An-
thracite Men.

PrTTsBrRo, April 2l.--The great coal
stSilse which has been pending several
Months has been inaugurated. Opinions
differ as to the number of men engaged
in IT, President John Mcbride Of the
United Mine Workers estimates 200, 0,000
men. Secretary Treasurer Park Nc.
Bryde is quoted as placing the number
at 100000. Telegraphic reports indicate
the number is between these two ex.
tremes. The strike is confined to the
bituminous regions of the United States.
In this there are % districts organized,
II being in Pennsylvania. Other dis.
trcts are in Washington, Wyoming, Col
orado, Indian territory, Missouri, Kansas,
Alabama, Kentucky, Virginia, West
Virginia, Maryland, Ohio, Indiana and
Illinois.
4 Massillion operator says 5000 mines
are abandoned Of these 800 are located
in Ohio. In the Pittsburg district alone
there are 1870 and fully 80 more in the
Clearfeld or mountain districts. These
two districts have about % 900 miners
In Ohio there are $4,000 miners; in Indi
ana II 900; in Illinois 600; in Alabams
10000 who had previously quit work; in
Miss ouri 5000; in Tennessee about 1000
All the operators in this and the Ohio
district believe the strike will assume
great proportions. This has been shown
by the start during the past week OF
mines which have been long unworked
to get coal even coke cars being used
for the purpose and the putting OF as
many men at work as can be secured
Manufacturers and foundry owners
are greatly alarmed and do not credit as
surances from operators that the strike
will be of short duration, and therefore
they are securing all the coal they can
II is conceded that a strike of two weeks
will cause shortage which may result
in the closing down OF their works.
While the anthracite diggcrs have no,
been called out. it is announced that IN
case hard coal is used to raise steam
where bituminous coal is now employed,
that region will be rendered imperative
by a strike. There are about 10000
miners employed 10y the four companies
which control the anthracite region.
Will the strike be a success?
To those on the inside of the organizai
ton, successful strike is the object Of
the suspension, but it will have the de
sired effect if it brings about confer'
ence of operators all over the country
which will result in higher wages to the
miners and more money to the operators,
The operators in Ohio, Illinois and part
of Pennsylvania really favor the suspen
sion. They want higher schedule o
prices, but all must conform.

Orlgina, Application.
In sorting over old papers the other
lay, Colonel Walter French. the file
Jerk of the house of representatives,
who is noted for his antiquarian lore,
discovered the following interesting
etter from tho widow of Abraham
Lincoln:
To the Honorable Speaker Of the House
" Representatives-Sir herewith most
respectfully present to the honorable
iouse of representatives an application
or pension. / am a widow OF n presi.

'acrifced In his country's service That
lad calamity has very greatly impaired

,ician have come over to Germany toi

means do not permit me to take
advantage of the urgent advice give. me,
hor can live in style becoming the
widow Of the chief magistrate of u great
tatioD, although live as economically as
possibly can. In consideration of the
great services my dearly beloved hus band
has rendered to the United States, and Of
lhe fearful loss have sustained by his
hntimely death, his martyrdom, / may
,ble body this petition, hoping that

main most respectfully,

Frankfort, Germany.
The simple but yet dignified way in
which Mrs Lincoln petitions to con-
yress for a pension Is in marked con-
rast TO the methods now employed by
pensioners, but pensions were not so
plentiful then as now. The letter Is on
In ordinary sheet OF note paper and
.overs three sides, which are heavily
bordered in black. The communication
Is undated, but the Endorsement on the
back shows that il was referred by the
speaker TO the committee on invalid
pensions on January 20, 1869. Congress
acted in the matter with great deliber-
ition, a great deal more SO than IL
would today in IA similar case. as 1t was
not until July II. 1870, almost eighteen
months after the receipt of the petit
ton, that the act was approved giving
Mrs. Lincoln a pension OF SO, 900 year.
