Lengthy Strike TO End.

After seven months of sacrificing
struggle and lockout there comes hope
for 400 Bernice miners and their fami-
lies, who have at times had their distress
relieved by the donations Of other an
thracte workers The strike began
over the refusal of State Line and Suli-
van Railroad Company, which operates
the mine, to recognize the United Mine
Workers and pay the 10 per cent ad-
vance in wages.
For months the executive board of
District No. has labored with Super
intendeut Davis, representing the min
ing company, to end the couflict, but he
was obdurate. Yesterday President
Nichols was advised by him that the
company would take back all the men
excepting four, and would pay the wage
increase. There is some talk that the
long conflict will now end.

WOMEN WAGE FARMERS.
New YorlS's Female Workers as n
Class Are Underpnid.

For a girl coming to New York to
study an income of at least $40 week
is necessary to live in civilized decency,
leaving the luXuries out of the question.
Anything less means physical deteriora-
ton, a duling of the mental faculties
and "A consequent inability to do her
work well.
Judged by this standard 80 per cent
Of the working women of New York
are dangerously underpald. Less than
10 per cent-that Is, less than 10000
receive 50 a week or more. Twenty
eight per cent-in round numbers 45,-
000-are paid less than 50. The general
average is $5.24. Altogether there are
about 100000 women wage earners in
the city. They divide naturally into
three great classes - factory workers,
commercial employees, such as clerks,
saleswomen, stenographers and teleg
raphers, and domestic workers. In the
commercial pursuits there is probably
the largest number of adequately paid
workers; but, on the whole, considering
the majority of ordinary workers, there
Is little or no difference in conditions.
The average working woman suffers
physically from lack of food from in
sanitary housing both at home and in
her workshop, from inability to get suf-
ficient and suitable clothing. On the
psychological side she suffers chiefly
from an inadequate system of educa-
ton and want of wholesome amuse-
ment and recreation.
These women wage earners comprise
about one-tifth of the adult population,
SO their healthy development, physical
ly and mentally, morally and spiritual
ly, is a matter of vital consequence to
the whole community. Yet not one per-
son in a thousand ever thinks of them.
The few who have not only thought,
but investigated and tried to improve
conditions, have, for the most part,
been workers like themselves. To the
10 per cent of the working men and
women organized in trades unions be-
longs most of the credit for the state
and national legislative committees
which have investigated the affairs of
working women and for the factory
and sweatshop inspection laws which
have wrought some Improvement

4 WAITING MARKET ON STOCK CHANCE Declining Activity is the Result
 of This Period THE COALERS HELPED OUT Sudden Advance of About 2 Points In United States Steel Helped to
 Make the Close Strong at
 Almost the Best Price
THE COALERS HELPED OUT

New York, July 25.-The upward reaction in stocks this morning from day to day are a familiar incident of periods when speculative factors have largely spent their force and new ones Of importance are in sight to take their place. IL ooes not necessarily follow that there are not larea sneculative commitments still exist ing in the market. Some further ngnt IS evidently awaited on the actual results .to the crops of the period of drouth In the West which has formed together With +ba steel strike the basis of the recent speculation for the fall. Declining ac- tiyity and lessening calculations are the natural accompaniments of such period. It is to be assumed that short interest exists in the market as a consequent or the recent downward course of prices ana consequently the absence of any new un- favorable developments by begetting an easy frame of mind in the shorts Keeps the undertone of the market firm. There is the additional consideration that stocks in the general list which are not directly concerned at all in the vicissitudes or crops have suffered from depression by sympathy with those that are. There were evidences today that the level of prices or . some of these proved attractive at the low level The professional traders anx- ious to develop new speculative move ment began the buying and helped to ad- vance prices. The bituminous coal car riers, the anthracite group and some of the roads in the southern region, were prom . 4I,f of1a0f n and helped to hold a dull market hrm through the middle portion of the session. The announcement of the engagement at the assay office of s50O.0O0 in gold sent prices downwards again but not to the lowest. The gold is supposedly for ex- port although the destination is not an- nounced. The fact that gold should go out with the exchange market yielding to the supply created by large foreign buying of grain today aroused renewed attention to the fact that some special demand for gold exists abroad which can draw 1t from New York with excnange be- low the normal gold export point The market became so nearly stagnant at the decline that the courage of the bulls was revived and they marked up prices again. The sudden advance of about two points each in United States Steel stocks and an earlier advance of as much in Amalgana- E. ted Copper helped to make the closing strong and quite active with many stocks back at the top Ievei of the day. There was considerable manipulation evident on the advance the principal part of which was restricted to a small circle.
 Railroad bonds were more active than yesterday and there was very large de- rnand for the bonds exchangeable for Bur lington stock and some bl,vin9 also O. Baltimore and Ohio convertible bonds. The market generally was irregular. Total sales, par value, $1.e2O.OOO. United States bonds were alf unchanged on the last call

July 25-There was little change in the weather situation today Northern Louisiana and Southern Missis- sippi came in for good rains, while Ar kansas received better showers than for some time, but Texas rainfall was light with Beeville showing 0.03.

New York drop ped 5 to points on the opening in re- sponse to the weakness abroad and then tended steadily downward under heavy selling for both accounts on anticipation of a severe break in the market on notice day tomorrow when tenders on August are expected. The drive against the market was a purely speculative one and amounted to nothing less than manipula- tion There were slight reactions from time to time, but there was no concerted support in evidence. The close was steady at 12 to 17 points decline, which was gen. orally distributed throughout the list.

was generally looked for and traders are inclined to think the market may be weak again tomorrow.
 The influence of the uncertainty over August deliveries tomorrow is too much for prices and with some rains in the South and West the market has declined easily.
 There were more rains predicted for to- mororw and this left very little support to prices with those who bought on the decline at the opening took profits at mid day and the majority looked for lower Liverpool tomorrow. Trading was active throughout the day with heavy liquida- tions. In August, however, the conserva- tive element did little.
 A number of very careful operators bought moderately on the afternoon low prices and expecting to buy more on the decline in the morning. While the heavy selling in August has forced that option down to 7A cents and the fear of deliver les has depressed the whole market.
 The situation is not altogether favorable to short selling. Southern spot markets are all over cents and it is oa,hmcnly re- ported that the cotton herr cs.I Sost of 1t be moved out.
 Now that the long Interest nave been MQuidated there is every rrosps~t of mak- ing good turn in August ty 7. purchase on any further decline Ae far as the new crop months are concerned rain has help ed the outlook considerably but we can not advise the sale of oas October or Jam uary for a decline.
 In the event of a governmei aort next week shorts would become u- :ortable The market Is hardly a bear market by any means and the whole complexion of the trade may very easily be changed within a week or ten days.

New York, July 2.-The course of prscc after the opening business in this morn ing's stock market was beyond any ques- ton almost a total surprise ito most ob- servers Of recent speculative conditions. The morning newspapares reported no break whatever in the drouth prevailing throughout the corn belt and this morn ing the weather map showed little im- provement in the spring wheat sections.
 A good deal of the early spurt in the market was unquestionably owing to the covering of short contracts which was vigorously conducted, but on the other hand, the reported breaking of the drouth resulted in influx some new buying by commission houses The semi-oficial ut terances respecting the dividends on Union Pacific and Southern Pacific, pub lished had no particular effect on stocks in question which were strong in sympa- thy with the remainder of the market The dealings in the steel issues were in large volume and both classes of the stocks were firm. Other notably strong features were Illinois Central, Pennsylva- mia and Rock Island.
