Fully as many more orders will be issued

and are getting boisterous. Unless out

the number in the city without food at
1900. Last night fully 600 men gathered
In a building and decided to ask the
State to give immediate aid to prevent
starvation.
The assistance given yesterday will tide
them over until Monday. but other help

(by ASSOCIATED fTebsJ
PHILADELPHIA, April 2s.-The sit
uation in the mining regions at the end
of the first week OF the big strike re-
mains practically unchanged. Advices
received this morning from the mining
districts east of the Alleghenies are to
the effect that not a mine Is In operation
with the single exception OF a small
mine near Osceola, which employs but
100 men.
The reports also state that the supply
OF coal is fast becoming exhausted.
The miners claim that the strike can
last but a few days longer. and many
operators intimate that 1t woul be the
better policy TO accede to the demands
of the strikers and make a small profit
rather than keep their mines closed.
The general opinion seems to be that
the strike will not last through another
week. There Is already talk of a COM
promise, and It is believed that an I'M
d~erstanding will be reached between the
miners and the operators without con-
sultinR the President of the United
