CHARLESTON. W. Va. August l2.-
There are strong indications that 800
miners employed on Loup Creek will
strike. The men arc paid 55 cents per
car of entry coal. They claim that the
car holds nearly three tons, though sup.
posed 10 contain two. They demand
that car measurements shall cease and
that operators put in scales, bus con.
,inuo the present rate for mining.
Operators claim that the cars now in
use hold only one and .tenths
tons, and that consequently the ton mage
rate on Loup creek Is 80 IS cents and
Ills cents per ton, according to the
character Of work necessary to mino
coal. A dologate convention of New

held Thursday tn discuss tho situation.
Final action will be taken at that .imo.
