Committee of Employees Calls on a Le-
high Valley Official.
HAzLEToN, Pa. Oct. PA commit.
tee of four miners employed by the Le-
high Valley Coal company called upon
F. d. Zerbey, district superintendent
of that company, for the purpose Of
asking the superintendent to explain
to them how the company intends to
forego the 10 per cent increase in con-
uection with the reduction in the price
of powder offered by the company.
Although the four men are members of
the United Mine Workers they did not
call ON Mr.. Zerbey as such and the union
was not mentioned. Neither Mr.. Zerbey
nor the company was inclined to
say what took place at the conference
but it is understood the miners went
away apparently satisfied with Mr..
Zerbey's explanation. He told them
that the oompany's notice in itself was
a guarantee that they will receive a net
advance of 10 per cent over the Sep
tember wages. This is believed to be
the first committee of employees that
has called on the officials Of any of the
coal companies to discuss their griev.

EFFECT OF FROSTS.
Extent Of Damage by the Re-
cent Cold Nights---General
Fruit Crop Not Injured.

The Ohio weekly crop bulletin says
a hard freeze occurred over the greater
part of the state. Many correspondents
reported ice from one-eighth to one
fourth inch thick; the surface Of the
ground froze in some districts in the
north. Only the earliest garden and
field crops were above the ground so
the damage to those except in few To-
calities was neither extensive nor Sc
rious.
Correspondents report considerable
damage to strawberries, grape vines.
and other small fruits and some fear
that the larger fruits have been much
injured; but, while most correspon-
dents admit that it is too early to de-
termine the damage to apples, pears,
ETC., the general opinion is that because
of the extreme dryness of the air the
slow thawing of the frost from the
trees, the general fruit crop is not Sc
riously injured.
