STRIKE NOT
YET ORDERED
Continued from First Page

sufhclently to apprise Its officials or tnelr
determination. The executive board will
wait until the time limit expires, order
strike on tomorrow and instruct the
men to remain away from work ON Mon
day.
1t is yet uncertain what percentage of
the men will remain at work. The Della
ware, Lackawanna and Western has
made Il poll of its employees and finds
80 per cent are opposed to the strike, but
many of these say they consider it their
duty to go out if a strike is ordered.
In making this poll the first trouble
occurred between men and operators.
The employees at the Halstead-D Duryea
refused to fill out the ballots. They said
they did not propose to bind themselves
by any promises. The mine officials or
dered work stopped for the day, and
the men went home.
Leaders of the union say that careful
inquiries at every mine throughout the
region have been made, and they are as
sured that 10 per cent of the mine work
ers will ultimately strike. They expect
that of the 49, 900 mine workers in the
region about 10000 will strike on Mon
day and that by Wednesday or Thurs
day fully 100000 will be out.
The superintendents of the leading
companies here say that not more than
10 per cent of their men are anxious to
strike, and they do not expect more than
20 to % per cent to go out. They will
work their mines with the remainder
and say that even if rs per cent quit
they will still run the mines and demand
protection from the authorities against
interference with their men.
AS soon as the decision of the oper-
ators became known yesterday there was
an immediate rush of orders for coal, and
yesterday afternoon so numerous had
they become that the companies refused
to promise delivery. Big manufacturers
have gathered all the wagons and teams
they could get hold of and are rushing
tons into their coal bins

Secretary RusselPS report showed
that the expenditures of the chamber
were fully up to Its income and that it
owed some bills to be paid at once;
while number of delinquent mem
bers owed more than enough for these
bills, something must be done to in

thought the board was authorized to
do this, but the others thought that
the members should be considered first.
1t was agreed that every effort should
be made to colelct the delinquent dues
from members and from the railroads.
