MOST striking thing III all

situation of the coal miners OF

O.. II TSE1E AlOo STRIKING JniIg III all
the labor world today is the
situation Of the coal miners Of
IL Ohio. Never has any portion
of the labor'ing people been confronted
by such remarkable and iorlorn c0ndi-
tons. Their case presents a problem
whose solution will tax all the reSour-
ces OfAmerican craftsmanship. Every
body interested is looking forward
with intense anxiety to the meeting
Of the miners and operators to be held
two months hence iii Ittsburr. Can
that conference improve the situation
or find any solution for the pcrDlcXing
problem? 1t seems scarcely possible.
Meantime the trouble i'm Ohio is not
of the sort that brooks delay. The
miners and operators are equally help
less. There is no market for the coal
West Virginia holds the market and
the problem is, "HOW can Ohio secure
q reasonable share in it, Unless it is
solved there is notlling> but idieness
and apparent starvation ahead for
Ohio miners.
Now, the reason for West Virginia
holding the market is exceedingly SIM
pie First, it has as good a quality of
coal and nature has SO placed it that
it can be much more cheaplv mined
than Ohio coal. Instead OF being hoist
ed up & shaft by steam it is merely
dumped down the side of the hill.
Second, the cost Of mining it is still
further reduced by the cheap, morgan
lied labor that abounds III West Nirg-
inia. With these two things inits favor
it is simply impossible for Ohio to sell
itscoal att the price for which WestNirg-
inia can furnish it in unlimited quanti-
ties. The coal production in Ohio has
dropped off from fourteen million tons
TO PROBABLY seven million touS, While
that Of West Virginia has increased
from eleven million to tWenty million
tons per annum and is steadily grow
ing as Ohio decreases. The cost ofpro-
duction in Ohio is given as Sc cents
ton while in West Virginia it is but
221a cents q ton. If the Ohio cost OF
production were cut IN two West Nlr-
ginia could still hold the market,
Who can solve the problem: 1t is
idle to talk Of wage reduction when
the men are now barely able to live.
To reduce One-half the wages OF aman
earning S12 month is clearly impos-
sible. If the miners must 20 hungry in
any event they Will naturally 60
hungry in idleness rather than while
working. Does this mean the abar1-
donment Of the Ohio coal fields: What
will become of the miners: Will the
community have to feed them: II so
will the operators who own the land
have to pay the increased taxes to do
it? VIII the state ultimately have to
take the coal lands for unpaid taxes
and then operate the mines and en-
ploy the miners, or how will it work
out? 1t is by all odds the most inter
esting problemin the realm ofeconom-
les and it must ultimately become a
great public question.--LabOr Herald.

And the sage the man Of letters,

A SMALL VERDICT
Il All the Compensation Hoffman Has
Secured for Malicious Arrest


The damage suit of George A. Hoffman
against John A. Baxter for false imprison-
ment was tried yesterday before Judge Van
Dyke and a jury John Baxter caused the
arrest of the plaintiff on a complaint sworn
to by him in the justices court at Monroyia
June 25, 1897, accusing the youth of having
stolen apricots worth $40 from his premises
Justice c. +. Cooke issued a warrant and
Hoffman was arrested, but was released
after being in custody short while by
putting up $50 bail. The plaintiff was tried
on July 9Th following before jury and
found not guilty Of petty larceny. Hofr
man commended that Baxter had procured
the arrest out of malicious motives and
asked for s5005 damages.
Hoffman proved that he had bill of
sale for the fruit which Baxter accused
him of stealing and for the taking of which
he was arrested The defendant claimed
that he had not acted with malice against
Hoffman. He had himself believed that
the plaintiff was taking the wrong fruit,
and under that impression he had rushed
to the justice of the peace with his tale of
larceny. In the morning he had inquired
of Hoffman what right he had to take the
apricots, and the plaintiff had answered
him that 1t was none of his business and
asked him what he was going to do about
1t. AS Baxter had lately bought the prop
erty upon which Hoffman had gathered the
apricots, he naturally concluded that it was
his business, but, while he made inquiries
he failed to find out the fact that the for
mer owner, Mrs. McCauldin, had disposed
of the fruit crop on the land before she had
sold him the property.
