coal MINERS ACCEPT.
Ohio and Pennsylvania Men WIN Resume
Work at 90 Cents per Ton.

Columbus, o., Sept 1.-THE great
miners strike, which was declared on
July 4, was brought to an end this
evening, so far at least as Western
Pennsylvania. Ohio, Indiana and West
Virginia are concerned. by the action OF
the Interstate convention of miners,
which has been In session since We'd
nesday. After a day OF voting and
wrangling the convention adopted a
resolution accepting the proposition of
the Pittsburg operators. The vote was
1876 for and 317 agninst accepting the
terms Of settlement, and eleven votes
were not cast.
The delegates of Illinois, who had 25O
votes, were unanimously against set
tlement Indiana and West Virginia
voted solidly TO accept the operators
proposition. but there were scattering
Votes among the Ohio and Pittsburg
delegates against 1t. The resolution
adopted Is as follows:
Resolved, That we, the miners Of
Pennsylvania, West Virginia. Ohio, In
diana and Illinois, In convention assem-
bled, do hereby agree to accept the
proposition recommended by our ma
tional Executive committee. viz: Sixty
i've cents In Pittsburg district, all
places in above named states. where
relative price can be obtained, to re-
sumo work and contribute literally TO
the miners who do not receive the ad-
vance over which the fight must be
continued to bitter finish.
Resolved. That the national officers,
Executive board and district presidents
act as an Advisory board for the
purpose OF providing ways and means
for the carrying on OF the strike where
necessary, provided, however. that no
district resume work for ten days, for
the purpose of giving miners in other
districts time TO confer with their op-
orators and get the price II possible"
While ten days is provided for the
miners to resume work, II is probable
that many OF the Ohio and Pittsburg
mines Will he reopened Monday. The
Illinois miners viii be called in con-
vention at Springfield September 10, TO
determine what shall be done in that
state.
