MAY GO OUT SUNDAY,
Strike Not Absolutely Certain, But
Very Probable.

Indianapolis, Sept. 8.-The national
board of Union Mine Workers resumed
it's secret session at $3.50 o'clock today.
Before the meeting the board members
said the situation had not changed dur
ing the night. No disposition was made
by the operators to meet any of the de-
mands through either the national Off
GERS or the district officers in the anthra-
cite region.
The presidents of districts No. 1, Z and
9. all anthracite are at Hazelton, Pa, the
center of the field, and so far as known in
Indianapolis, no answers to the appeal is
sued last night by the presidents-Thom-
as d. Nichols, John Fahy and Thomas
Duffy-has been made by the operators.
The utmost secrecy attended the board
meeting today. The fact that the board
met one III and a half earlier than it
did yesterday morning is taken as az in
dication that grave problems are to be
solved today. The great order of 1897,
which called out 100 miners, vas is
sued on Sunday, July 4. 1t seems pro-
bable if the great anthracite strike is
ordered. the order will &c into effect late
tonight or Sunday morning. The board
members ridicule the stories in circula-
ton hat a lobby of business men from
the east has been in Indianapolis trying
to prevent a strike order. Nobody has
called on the hoard for such a purpose.
