march of the day was made by $50
men at Camp Determination, who left

as they were yesterday, save that the
company claims to have made fur

afternoon District President Dolan
accused the operators Of the Pittsburg
district with having broken faith with
the striking miners in this district.
He also outlined the policy to be pur-
sued by the United Mine Workers In
their fight in the central Pennsylvania
district, where it is proposed to close
down all the mines. He cannot pre-
dict when the strike will be settled,
but claims his organization can stand
the strike until the last of Septem-
Der. The operators, he said, had prom
ised to pay the price when the supply
at De Arnitt's mines had been cut
off. This has been defeated, but the
operators had failed to keep their part
of the contract.
The miners who have been working
regularly at Oak Hill mines were paid
this afternoon. Those who joined the
strikers did not get their cash, the
company withholding it, as under the

Ryan, secretary and treasurer of the
United Mine Workers of Illinois, has
arrived in this city and was in con-
sultation with George Wallace, chair
man of the executive board of Kansas
miners. They left at noon for Weir
City, where a meeting with the mem

last evening, lined UP on the public
highway leading to the Ingle mines
early this morning, and as the men
came to work at o'clock they were
again appealed to by the strikers with
the result that the few who had start

The entire force is now out and the
marchers are devoting their energies
to the other mines of the city. 1t has
been conceded that if the Ingle men
were induced to join the strikers those
in the other mines here and at New
berg would quickly follow suit. The
strikers remain orderly. They are be-
