NOT ALL WILL RESUME
SEVERAL ANTHRACITE MINES TO
REMAIN IDLE FOR TIME.
Nearly All Large Companies. How
ever, Have Complied with De-
mands, and VIII Start To-day.

HAZLETON, Pa, Oct. 2S-The Lehigh
and Wilkesbarre Coal Company. operating
the Audenried. Honey Brook and Green
Mountain collieries in this district, has not
yet complied with the demands of the an
thracite miners. 1t is said the company
will grant the concessions by Nov. 1, when
work will be resumed. There will be no
resumption of work at the Milnesville col
liery, which is operated by the A. S. Van
Wickle estate. Owing ito an agreement
with the Pennsylvania Railroad officials they
say they cannot afford to grant an increase
of 10 per cent, and 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 increase at it's
other collieries at Coleraine and Beaver
Meadow. 1t is said that Calvin Pardee
owner of the Lattimer mines, will not take
hack those men who struck before the
mines were closed down by 500 marchers
some weeks ago.
The firemen and brakemen on the Della
ware, Susquehanna a. Schuylkill Railroad
have submitted a 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. in
stead of $50, which they receive at pres
ent. The brakemen demand an increase of
10 per cent in their wages. The engineers
have grievances. This railroad is
owned by Coke Bros. & Co., which oper-
ates six collieries in this region. and was
built for the purpose of hauling coal from

depth of three feet, and some of the houses
near the bank were almost washed away,
the Chinese being driven away in wild
haste. The water covered the floors two
feet deep in some cases. A good-sized por-
ton of River street was washed away, and
the bridge leading TO the Palama district
was carried off, The heaviest rainfall in
the city proper was All inches, while the
heaviest on the island occurred on the
north side of the mountains, being go
