GENERAL STRIKE
Of All the Miners of Georges Greek.

Long and Bitter.

Of All the Miners of Georges Greek.
Nearly 5000 Men Involved-Be
Long and Bitter.
FRosTBuRG. Nd. April lO.-A gem
erai strike OF all the miners in the
Georges Creek region has been ordered
for tomorrow Wednesday, midnight.
Nearly 5000 men are involved. The
miners insist on an increase from s. 70
60 cents per ton Of 2.24O pounds. They
claim that they requested the operators
to meet their representatives to discuss
this Increase. but one o. their six re-
quests have been ignored. The Con-
sogidated Coal Company, employing i,SPl
men, suspended or dismissed seventy
fve Of their men on Monday. the miners
claim. because they took an active part
in a mass meeting held on Saturday.
This action OF the Consolidated COM
pany so Incensed the union men that the
strike was unanimously decided upon
by n committee composed OF TWO miners
from each OF the mines in the region.
Should the discharged men be REIN
stated, it is thought settlement Of tha
strike would soon follow. but many Of
the men are In favor OF holding out for
the full increase to 50 cents ton. not
wI,hstauding the action Of the consoll-
dated company Tonight II looks as
though the strike will resolve itself into
a long and bitter one.
