DENIALS MADE

The coal company superintendents
all deny that any effort is being made
on the. part Of the companies to get men
to go back to work. Superintendent
Rose of the Delaware and Hudson
said.
I'VE are not running after them
When they want to return to work they
will have to come to u.s."
superintendent Phillips of the Dela-
ware. Lackawanna and Western said:
I'VE are not canvasslng for men or
doing anything else towards inducing
individuals to return to work. In fact,
we are refusing work to miners and
laborers every day and not even taxi
ing the names of those who apply. II
enough of them come to open up a col
liery. we will put them to work. The
companies are not looking for men. We
are content to wait until the men are
tired Of their idleness."
The annual district convention of the
Mine Workers will open at Nantcoke
this morning at 10 o'clock. What. II
anything, will be done outside of dis
trict routine business is not possible of
conjecture. The leaders say there is
nothing scheduled outside Of routine
fore the convention adjourns there will
be something Of general Importance
transpiring.
There have been no disturbances Of
late and no new arrests have occurred,
although warrants are out for a number
OF Lackawanna and Duryea men who
are charged with having participated

William A. colliery,
THE COAL TRADE.
The Engineering and Mining Journal
of Saturday said that Anthracite trade
at all points is light. A considerable
amount of coal released by the railroads
has become available and temporarily
stilled the clamor about the use Of bit
luminous at New York city. Retailers
everywhere report demand small, partly
owing to this being the season Of light
consumption and partly owing to the
current reports Of exorbitant prices,
which further restrict the use Of an
thracite for domestic purposes. Trade
in the northwest is very light indeed.
In Chicago territory the market con-
tinues quiet. No coal Is arriving and
those dealers who have supplies-and
the total tonnage in storage is consid-
erable-are not seeking business. In
quiries from out of town points are
increasing.
Along the lower lakes the situation
shows little change. Large concerns at
Buffalo are reported as disposing of
what coal they sell at the regular prices,
though retail prices are up. Along the
Atlantic seaboard reports of the prob
able disntegration Of the strike before
long are having some effect and the
market is quieter. In cities gas is used
for domestic purposes as never before
and bituminous for steam production.
At Boston wholesale trade is light:
what coal is sold at speculative prices
goes to other points.
"At Philadelphia the demand for do
mestic purposes continues light. Small
lots of anthracite for steam production
are changing hands at speculative
prices. Stocks in dealers hands at
New York harbor points are gradually

Pending the result OF the conference yes

THEIR TROUBLES OVER
LUSITANA SOCIETY HAS
FINISHED ITS QUARREL
At Meeting Last Night Old Officers
Were Ordered to Turn Over
SOCiety'S Affairs to New
Men.

The Lusltana SOclety's troubles arc
at an end and now there seems to be q
disposition to set aside all i'll feeling
engendered by the recent elections and
the clashes of factions and to take up
the work again for the good of all. II
factional strife is still in the hearts OF
some OF the Portuguese, 1t is not being
made manifest and better Judgment
seems to prevail.
A meeting Of the society presided
over by J. NJ. Vivas, was held in the
Lusitana hall last evening. At that
time, there was almost a unanimous
vote to the effect that the old officers
be ordered to turn over the affairs Of
the society to the new men.
There was at first q very decided OPP.
position by the old officers to any such
action. They actually refused to dc
as the society bid them. Later on
they reconsdered this determination
and. stating that 1t was not their in.
.ention to fight any longer. gracefully
ncceded to the demands OF the over
whelming majority.
Included in the motion just men
toned was call for a meeting to b,
held in the hall this evening for thu
