Prominent Strike Leaders Are Suspicious and Seem TO
Fear That There Is an Agreement to
Break Up the Miners Union

entering nail in the coffin Of the union.
If the Reading miners went to work
then a break in the ranks Of the men
in the other districts would naturally
follow. The result would be that all
the strikers would be back to work in
a short time and the union would be
a thing of the past, as the first month S
pay would show that the miners did
not get what they struck for. This
would be bound TO create more or less
dissatisfaction, and as another strike
would be out of the question, the men
would have to grin and bear it. But at
the same time there would be no love
for the union or its officers"
The way things now look. the COM
panies who were represented at the
Scranton conference on Thursday win
have TO be more explicit on the pow
der question proviso before the men
of the Wyoming Valley return TO work.
At least that is the way the strikers
talk
The operators say they are acting in
good faith. that the oiler they have
made is the best that can be made at
this time. 1t grants @ 10 per cent m

understand now as later that there will

lat the coming election.
"Of course" said Mr.. Horton, New

afraid Of the Is to / proposition and
do not care to take any chances.
Bryan viii not poll the vote this time
in New York that he did four years
ago.
Mr.. Horton occupies a position
which brings him in close contact with
many men Of prominence and he has
an opportunity to carefully observe
the political situation.
