TO Be NO STRIKE.
Anthracite Coal Miners Decide
to Continue at Work.
Visit to Pierpont Morgan Pro-
ductiTe of Good Results.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, March S0.-The
threatened strike Of $4,000 miners in the
hard coal region will not take place.
At a meeting Of the executive COM
mittee of the United Mine Workers of
the three anthracite districts held in this
city it was decided that the men should
continue at work
This committee was given arbitrary
power by the general convention of min
ers held in Hazleton in the fore part or
the month to declare a strike If the cir
cun1stanceS warranted it. In the opinion
of the committee expressed in a lengthy
address prepared by Mr.. Mitchell him
self. the circumstances did not warrant
a strike at this time Mr.. Mitchell made
an address at the afternoon session OF
the committee which was conservative
in the extreme. He spoke OF his first
visit to New York and his efforts to
secure interviews with the men who
control the anthracite coal trade. He
said all the concessions asked for had NOT
been granted, but the outlook for the
future was bright, and it was his Opin-
ion that the day was not far distant
when the operators Of the anthracite
region would see that it was to their
advantage to meet their miners in joint
conference. 1t took some time and hard
work before the bituminous operators
would consent to meet their miners, but
they eventually did
Some members of the committee, it
was said, We're in favor of pursuing q
radical COURSE on Lne ground lildl IL
the operators did not recognize the min
ers' union now the opportunity would be
lost forever. President Mitchell. how
ever. soon convinced the committee that
a conservative course was the only one
to pursue at this time.
A number of coal operators. when
shown the statement issued by the COM
mittee, said it was a disgraceful back
down on Mr.. Mitchells part. but they
gave the president Of the mine workers
credit for his conservative policy. 1t is
conceded that had he so desired he could
have made a great deal of trouble
On the whole the miners are well
pleased with the action of the committed
While they were ready to strike had
the order been given. they are just as
well pleased that no lock out is to or It.
There is general rejoicing among b. Il
ness men over the news. The suspense
of the past two weeks had a tendency
to paralyze trade, but now a big boom is
looked for. The happiest man in town is
Rev. E. S Phillips, the Hazleton priest,
who did so much to bring about
peaceful settlement of the differences,
between the operators and miners. He
said:
.sWel1. there is everything to be thank
full for. A strike would have meant
much misery to all classes"

Unusual Drought.

The prevailing drought in this
county is becoming a serious
matter. There has not been a
half an inch of rainfall since the
latter part of July, and the water
supply isrunning short. Streams
are dry, or at least, very low, and
springs and wells that were never
known to fail, are dry as a powder
horn.
The farming community is con-
fronted by serious condition of
affairs; grain being stunted and,
in places, practically ruined.
This is particularly true of such
as was sown late. Much of it did
not come up on account of lack of
moisture in the ground and what
did come up has withered, and
acres will have to be replanted.
The early wheat will not with
stand the dry spell much longer,
farmers say, and they are alarm
ed lest the entire crop for next
year be blighted beyond all hope.
