COAL STRIKE IMMINENT.
Miners and Operators in Pennsylvania
arc Very Far Apart.

PITTSBURG. PA, January "A gem
ersl strike in tho bitumnous coal region
is looked for on the termination OF the
present agreement. This strike can only
be averted by the miners and operators
reaching an amicable agreement at the
convention to be held in this city next
week.
A reported interview with Operator
Thomas Young manager Of the Hanna
coal interests, is as follows:
1T Is the intention OF the operators to
reduce the minimum scale OF wages. The
operatives cannot afford 10 maintain the
present rate The miners want a higher
rate and the operators claim reduction
must be made. You can readily see TIE
miners AMI operators are far apart.
There seems 10 be little chance OF gettins
together. The operators DO not see how
they can maintain the present scale.
Coal IS now being sold below cost. The
miners in this district. comprising four
States. are well paid n they could work
fun time. They have done pretty weli
during the past year. In TACT, they have
made more money than the operators.
.erhe operators in this district pay so
much more for mining than the operators
in the West Virginia district that they
are not able to compete with them. We
lose business right along for the reason
that we canot meet the competition. One
result Of the strike will be an advance IN
the price of coal. | do not anticipate
coal famine for the reason that coal can
be obtained from twenty different fields.
The ineveitable result OF the strike VIII
be that the operators will win. The
operators DO not look for trouble before

Regarding the non-payment OF TIE po-
