10 Per Cent Advance.
Hazleton. Pa, Oct. 3O.-The Lehigh
and Wilkesbarre Coal company, oper-
atlng the A,Idenried, Honey Beck and
Green Mountain collieries in this dis
trict, has not yet complied with the de-
mands of the anthracite miners. 1t is
that the company will grant the o II
cessions by November 1, when work
will be resumed.
There will be no resumption of work
at the Mtlnesville coliiery, which is OPP
Grated by A. 8. Van Wickle estate.
Owing to IN agreement with the Pen
nsylvania railroad, the officials say
they cannot afford to grant an increase
of 10 per cent. If the men return to
work they will have to be contented
with the old rate of wages. The Van
Wickle company has granted the in
crease at its other collieries, at Collier
ain and Beaver Meadow.
1t is said that Calvin Pardee, owner.
the Lattimer mines. will not axe back
those men who struck before the mines
some weeks ago.
The firemen and brakemen on the
Delaware, S~usquehanna and Schuyl-
kill railroad ave submitted Il number
of demands to the railroad officials.
The former demand that thirty hours
constitute three shifts, and that they
be paid 81 for the same. instead of
$50. which they receive at present.
Tho brakemen demand an increase Of
10 per cent in their wages. The engi-
neers rave no grievance. The railroad
is owned by CroXe Bros. & Co.. Who
operate six collieries in this region, and
was built for the purpose of hauling
coal from its mines TO the tracks of the
Lehigh Valley railroad.

Bros. 6 Co, offering the men the 10
per cent advance granted by all the
other companies, neither rae the Lee
high n W~ilkesbarre Coal companies,
who offer 10 per cent. agreed TO abolish
the sliding scale. The strikers have
