Miners of the Pittsburg District De-
clare They Have Won.
CAPITALIZATION OF RIVER OPERATORS
Sixteen Out Of Twenty-Five Thou
sand at Work.
THE NEW LABOR ORDER

PITTSBCRG, Pa, March 12.-The miners
of the Pittsburg district claim that victory
Is theirs that they have won the strike
for higher wages and they produce the
figures to prove their claims. With the
capitulation of the river operators to the
demands for sixty nine cents per ton. 5000
miners went back to work at union wages.
But in the rush of resumption tf work
these 5000 men were not sufficient. and
two thousand miners from the railroad
mines have been furnished work.
Besides this, there are 5000 men at work
at the union rates in the railroad mines,
according to the figures of the miners Off
Gals. Thus 5000 men out of a total of
twenty-five thousand in the district are
at work at the 69-cent rate. and the
miners claim that the battle is practically
NON. as the remaining operators cannot
afford to keep their mines closed and let
their trade go to their competitors.
The strike is not yet week old. and the
miners feel that their bold, decisive action
has won for them the victory. The de-
mand for coal is good. and the visible sup
ply is very short. Lake shipments will be-
gin next month. and the operators are
in no condition to meet the orders which
the opening of the lake trade will bring
them.
William b. Wilson, the general master
workman of the Independent Order
knights of Labor. the new labor organiza-
ton, is in the. city, and is jubilant at the
prospects of the miners. He feels that the
first fight of the new order will be a win
ming one. and, if such proves the case, 1t
will receive hig boom.

differences We're compromised. The de-
mand for coal has greatly increased of late.
At Wheeling the Cleveland and Pittsburg
Coal Company, operating the Tiltonville
mines, announced that their mines would
resume operations as soon as they can be
gotten in shape. They have been idle for
the past four months. and for a month past
the miners have been living on charity.
