MORE MINERS
JOIN RANKS OF
THE STRIKERS. ]'I|,'I|I' {.
An Army of Over a Hundred Thou
sand Men now Idle in the Coal
Fields Of Pennsylvania.
no BREAK IN THE RANKS
OF Either the Operators or Miners.
Third Party May be Necessary
to Settle the Dispute,

PHILADELPHIA, Pa. Sept. 1S.-The
leader OF the strike says at the end OF
the second day that $4,000 OF the $4,000
mine workers In the anthracite coal
fields are idle. No report OF the mine
opera,ors make a statement for their
side OF the matter. but Individual own
ers dispute the strikers figures, say
Ing there are more men at work than
the union leaders will admit.
The frs, advance in the price OF coal
as result of the strike was made by
the Philadelphia & Reading Company
to-day, 25 cents per ton being added.
This advance was promptly met by the
local dealers, who increased the price
to consumers 50 cents ton.
A cloud appears on the otherwise
peaceful horizon in the shape Of re-
PORT from Harrisburg that n bitter
feeling is developing between the union
and non-unlon men In the Lykens dis
trlct located in the upper end of Dau-
phin county. and Involving about $500
mine workers. A concession was vol
unfairly granted the 5000 employees of
the Lehigh Coal & Navigation Com
pany In the region west OF Mauch
Chunk. who will hereafter work ten
hours day with consequent increase
In earnings. These men were unor-
ganized and had not presented any
grievances.
Mules Brought to the Surface.
True 10 its declaration made before
the strike was ordered, the Philadel-
phla & Reading Company to-day
brought Its mules to the surface in two
mines near Shamokin that had been
closed by the strike and announced
that they were permanently abandoned.
This action makes 1t necessary for the
miners who formerly worked In these
collieries to seek work elsewhere.
The action OF the 400 or more en-
ployes OF the West End Coal Company
al Mocanaqua. near Wilkesbarre, In
sticking 10 their work stands out pro-
minently as the busy feature OF an
otherwise idle territory. They say they
have no grievance. have always recelv-
ed kindly treatment from their en-
pioyers and therefore resist every effort
to Induce them TO strike.
Father Phillips. the Catholic priest
who has been nm interesting figure In
the strike. both before and after. made
statement to the public tonight,
presenting an argument In behalf OF
arbitration and arguing to both sides to
get together.

HAzLEToN, Pa, Sept. 1S.-The Sec
ond day Of the anthracite coal strike

would lead to the bringing together OF
the coal operators and the striking min

ing Drafted.

NEW YORK March 1.-THE White star

1t was said at the Barge Office that the
arrival Of these immigrants was the begin
ming of the annual spring rush Of Irish
immigrants TO this country, and that every
English vessel which would arrive here in
the next few months would carry from 400
10 500 irish men and women
The 800 blue-eyed Irish girls received Il
joyous welcome from friends ana relatives
when they arrived at the Barge Office.
Many OF them will go to live with their
kinsmen in be East OF West but a great
number will serve as cooks and servants
here. Most Of the male immigrants said
that they had left ireland because they
were afraid they we're going TO be drafted:
not that they feared to night. but that they
objected to lighting the men with whom
they sympathized.
