MAKES A DECISION.
Coal Strike Commission Decides an
Important POint-PrOgress of
Investigation.

Scranton, Pa, Nov. 1.-The first i'm
strike commission, which is .arbitrat-
ing the differences existing between
the miners and their employers, was
taken Friday, when it was announced
by Carroll d. Wright, the recorder
Of the commission, that if any award
affecting the existing rate of wages
shall be made, the award shall be eff
fective from Nov. 1. 1t was fully eX-
pected that this question would come
up before the arbitrators, but the ac-
ton of the commissioners shuts off
any possible controversy that either
side may have decided to raise.
The commissioners spent the en-
tire day in continuing their inspec-
tion of the mines and the mining re-
gion about Scranton. They visited
the Manville colliery, operated jointly
by the Delaware & Hudson and the
Delaware, Lackawanna G. Western
companies, in the forenoon, and the
afternoon was spent in riding
through the region on a special troll
ley car.
1t is possible that the commission
may make preliminary report on
three principal strike questions.
They are the increase in wages, a
shorter work day and the weighing
of coal. After these have been de-
cided the commission can take up all
other questions without undue haste.
1t is known the commissioners have
this feature under consideration, and
it is very likely preliminary report
will ha made
