went into effect, At schlck's, on the

per ton was at once granted by the mine
operators and the mine has been run

they have conceded the demands made
by the strikers,

SECRETARY BERIsPoRD
Hopeful ofa Speedy Termination OF the
Strike-I.oeaI situation.


Strike-I.oeaI situation.
To the Editor OF the Intelllgencer,
sIR:-The strike situation in the Pan
Handle district of West Virginia remains
about the same. Part OF the miners at
Elm Grove are working. with indications
OF total suspension before the end OF
the week. The Koontz miners were Wis
tied by a committee to-day and all the
necessary explanations made as to the
Importance OF q total suspension to In
sure success. We expect to hear fav-
orable report from there by Tomorrow,
Many organizers are being sent into the
interior by the officials OF the organlza-
ton. Most miners that are seen travel-
Ing that direction are sent for that pur-
pose. 1t seems strange that so many OF
our people are blinded to their own inter-
est when they surely know tnat II enough
continue to work to supply even part Of
the demand, and the miners are beaten
in consequence. that their condition Will
he worse than II was before. II that be
possible The coal miners have the SYM
patty OF all trades people and, In fact, all
those who do not profit by this low wage
scale are with us for this reasonable and
slight betterment of our condition. We
know we are right, worthy, and need all
we are asking, but, as have said before,
we would be willing 70 submit our cause
to arbitration, for feel that II our cause
is submitted to dlslnterested, fair mind
ed men we will get what we are asking,
and even more II It were possible. Cover

Barton will visit Pittsburgh to-day.
where they win meet the governors and

we expect some steps will be taken to
end the strike. We hope they will be
enabled to bring the strike to a success

conferred with the Govrrnor.


Labor Commissioner Barton met Cow
ernor Atkinson last evening at the Nc
Lure. soon after the arrival of the
states chief executive from Charleston.
Commissioner Barton laid the matter
of the Pittsburg meeting before the
governor and asked for his advice. The
matter was discussed by the two gem
tlemen at considerable length, The
labor commissioner stated that Of the
$4,000 miners in West Virginia about
700 or s00-ln the Pan Handle district OF
the state--are out on strike. The others
are at work. the strike not having been
felt in the Falrmont. New River, Kama
wha. Pocahontas and other great pro-
ducing fields of the state. The COVER
nor was asked by Commissioner Barton
as TO the advlsabillty OF the appearance
OF the former at the conference of state
officials in Pittsburgh to-day.The gov
ernor replied that he had not received
an Invitation to take part in the arbl-
tratlon conference. and supposed that
the reason he had not been invited was
that there IL nothing to arbltrate In
West Virginia. all Of the miners in the
state. practically, being busily at work
and not affected by the strike.
Then the two discussed the matter OF
West Virginia being officially repre-
eented ut the Pittsburgh conference to-
day by Commissioner Barton. 1t was
decided that, under the circumstances
II would be better for Mr.. Barton to at
tend the conference only as private
citizen. one who ls Interested on general
principles In the struggle for better
wages now being wnged by nearly all
the miners Of the country outside Of

was spread generally over this state It
was thought lnadvisable for the state

official capacity. with authority to
speak and act on behalf Of the state
government. Mr.. Barton acqulesced In
this view Of the situation and left on the
