STRIKERS ARE LOSING
A FULL FORCE OF MEN WENT INTO THE MINES AT
 PLUM CREEK TODAY
One Company Has a Scheme Under Consideration Copied After
 Wanamaker's System.

PITTsBURG, August 1.-The Oak Hill miners, whose wages were with held by the DeArmit Company yes terday, because they had struck, met at Newton last night and, af- ter denouncing the company's ac- tion, formally declared a strike at Oak Hill on, and decided to remain out until the list price is paid.
 At Plum Creek the force was in creased. The full quoto of 285 men went in before o'clock, aud De Armits are jubilant.
 There is story being discussed about the mines, and on the street corners in Pittsburg, that the New York Gas Coal Company has under consideration a plan for sharing the profits annually with the miners. The plan will not be put into effect, however, until the strike is over, and those claiming to have knowl- edge of the purpose of the company say it is copied after the system in force in Wanamaker's stores in New York and Philadelphia and other large retail establishments in the East.
 Several threatening letters have been received by President DeArmit recently, he says, menacing him per sonally and others of the company.
