STRIKE MAY SPREAD
Soft Coal Miners Threaten to Join
The Movement.
SOME TALK OF COMPROMISE.
II Is Said That the Miners Will be Of
fered an Advance OF 10 Per Cent. In
Their Wages.

Hazleton, Pa, Special.-President
Mitchell Of the United Mine Workers
sent a telegram to the central Penn
sylvania bituminous coal fields which
possibly may have the effect of bring
ing the soft coal workers into the con-
test which the anthracite workers are
now waging against the mine owners.
The telegram was sent to Richard Gill
bert, secretary Of District No. 2, Clear
field, Pa. It was as follows: Issue
circular letter instructing all mine
workers in central Pennsylvania that
they are not to load coal for shipment
into markets formerly supplied by
anthracite operators. We are informed
that the Philadelphia and Reading.
Delaware and Hudson and the Jersey
Central railroads are now attempting
to defeat anthracite strike by sending
their cars into central Pennsylvania to
load them with bituminous coal. Please
comply with this request a. once.
President Mitchell said that he had
been watching the bituminous coal
field closely for just such move as
he alleges has been made by the rail-
roads mentioned in his telegram and
he does not fear that they will make
much of a success in getting the soft
coal into the anthracite market.
The miners in the central Pennsyl-
vania region, he continues, are in thor
ough sympathy with their fellow work
men in the eastern part OF the state
and President Mitchell feels sure that
as soon as they find that the coal they
may be loading or asked to load is to
take the place CT hard coal they will
refuse to handle it.
Labor leaders do no. anticipate any
suspension of work in the soft coal
field unless the operators insist upon
sending their coal to the anthracite
market. They also say that the Phila-
delphia and Reading, Delaware and
Hudson, and Jersey Central railroads
being unable to fill their contracts for
hard ccal are prevailing upon their
customers to accept the soft coal wher-
ever it can be used as substitute.
Philadelphia, Speclal.-The tower
ing feature of the coal strike situation
and one which attracted the attention
of all interests involved was the wide
ly circulated report that negotiations
are pending and rapidly nearing COM
pletion for an amicable settlement OF
the strike. While the identity OF the
person or persons who are said to be
at work endeavoring to bring about
the immediate peaceful adjustment Of
the difference between the employers
and employees has not been disclosed,
It was openly admitted in authoritative
sources that such endeaVor was in pro-
gress.
President Truesdale OF the Lacka-
wanna company is quoted as making
such an admission, but N what man
ner or by whom negotiations were be-
ing conducted he declined to state.
President Mitchell, the head Of the
striking miners organization, ex-
pressed the belief that the operators
had decided to offer the miners an in
crease Of wages, but he, too, declined
to admit whether he possessed any
further information on the subject.
