Pittsburg, Pa, June 1S.-The settle
ment of the great soft coal miners strike
and the return to work to-day of 1900 of
the 10000 miners in this district, has
given an impetus to all kinds of business,
and the situation is more hopeful than at
any time for many months. Among the
large plants in this city which
resumed to-day after long idleness, were
the Carbon Iron and Steel company's
works, divers Twenty-sixth street
works, Zung &, Co.'S works, Shoenbur-
gers, and Howe, Brown & Co. The latter
firm has been shut down for two years
and started up in full, giving employment
to 500 men. The Black Diamond Steel
Works will also begin operations
Steel Works will start as soon as
a sufficient quantity of coke is received.
At McKeesport everything is quiet, but
it is thought the tube works will start
up soon, as many Of the strikers have ex-
pressed willingness to return whenever
the firm was ready to resume.

Steel Company's plant resumed in full,
after an idleness of several weeks.

probably De called either to-day or to-
morrow.

MICHIGAN's MINERS.
Ironwood, Mich, June S.--Although the
local branch of the federation of labor, to
which most of the miners belong, voted
yesterday to strike to-day, the miners
went to work at the usual time this
morning in all the mines except the East
Norrie, which is one of the Metropolitan
group. At this time work is at a stand
still. 1t is thought that test case will
be made at East Norrie, to see what the
operators intend to do.
