REDUCES ITS RATES.
Baltimore & Ohio Restores Former Coal

Baltimore e. Ohio Restores Former Coal
TariR-URIformity and the Strike.
The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Com
pany has reduced the freight rate on
West Virginia coal from $3.50 to $1.O5,
the tariff that prevailed until few
weeks ago, says yesterdays Cleveland
Leader.
The increased charge was retarding
the movement of fuel, and the company
was not receiving the revenue which 1t
was expected would accrue as result
OF the advance. The reduction will
stimulate coal shipments and will re-
lleve the situation In Cleveland Consld-
erably, many consumers having found
that the additional forty-iive cents
placed the output OF the West Virginia
mines beyond their reach, Coal was
brought to Cleveland yesterday for
forty-fve cents less than 1t was on the
preceding day,
The Increase In carrying charges
when bituminous coal consumers were
depending upon the West Virginia
fields for fuel provoked the patrons OF
the Baltimore & Ohio company, which
enters the Fairmont district 1t was
charged that the railroad company was
taking advantage of people who were
unable to help themselves. Shippers
too, were surprised that the company
should advance rates, the policy of the
company being to move freight at rates
below the charge made by competitors
prominent coal dealer said that the
indications at present were that the
strike would not be-settled until about
the middle Of next month. even
then" he said. III settlement is reach

would settle the strike at once. 1t
would be unreasonable to assume that
the signatures Of the necessary number
OF operators would have this effect, be-
cause the strike is to be settled soon,
while the operators would not be bound

AS was forecast in these columns yes
terday, the Riverside mill miners Joined
the strike. In fact, yesterday morning
only one man showed up at the bank,
and when he arrived there was camp
ing about the premises nearly 300 miners
from Barton and Wheeling creek. on tho
Ohio side Of the river. AS detailed yes
terday, they marched over to the mine,
but soon found the demonstration was
unnecessary, as the miners had decided
TO cease work
The Riverside miners, by the way,
have none OF the grievances that even
those who go out on the sympathy strike
possess. They are well satisfied with
their lot, They are paid for run Of mine
coal, are not paid for screened coal, for
no screen is in evidence, and in short
they are paid for every pound they dig.

that In comparison with other miners
they are lucky.
But they felt II their duty TO come

no more intelligent class of men exists,
The assemblage of the striking miners
appealed 10 them very strongly, and
In addition their wives urged them 10

the strikers, and they fed bounteously
the small array OF Ohio marchers yes

The Ohio brethren greatly enjoyed their
