TALKING IT OVER
Meeting Of Labor Leaders at
Pittsburg to Discuss the
Strike.
The Result of the Conference
Anxiously Awaited on All
Sides.
Action of DillOnvale Miners Prac
tically Ties Up Cleveland
Industries.

PITTsBuRn, July 19.-The develop.
nents Of the next IL hours promise to
have most important bearing upon
the miners strike, and anxiety as to
the outcome prevails upon all sides.
Severe earnestness now marks the great
struggle, and it will require but few
days for the telling effects of the fight to
become plainly evident throughout the
districts involved. Tbs result of the
conference of prominent labor leaders in
this city to consider proposition for
the cooperation of the various trades,
u awaited with anxious interest. Presi.
dent Gompers of the American Fedora
ton Of Labor, has arrived in Pittsburg
from Washington, but at 10 O'Clock he
had not yet met President Ratchford or
any Of the other leaders.
Desires to Give Aid.
He expressed himself as desirous of
aiding the strikers in every possible
manner. The conference is scheduled
to be held at the Monongahela house
Just what is proposed is not known.
but it is the opinion that the meeting is
to outline plans for making the strike
general, and possibly to have the other
trades organizations refuse to handle or
use coal mined during the strike.
President Gompers was in conference
with Colonel w. p. Rend, the coal
operator Of Chicago, during the morn.
ing. The latter advocated arbitration,
and said the conditions Of trade will not
Justify the large and sudden increase
that the miners now claim. He further
stated that he believed the strike would
terminate in the course of two or three
weeks, and the men would compromise
at 60 cents.
The suggestion that joint meeting
of the arbitration boards Of Ohio, In
diana, Illinois aud Pennsylvania be held
in this city next week, and an effort
made to settle the strike was received
with favor, and it is believed that both
operators and miners would welcome it.
Before going into session none Of the
men would say anything as to the prob.
able outcome Of the gathering. Various
suggestions have been made, and all
will be carefully considered. One plan
is to raise a fund to aid the strikers and
keep them out until the movement is a
success. Another plan is to inaugurate
sympathetic strike and close all the
industries in the country.

were just trlle premature, As stated
