May Have Grave Results.

Cleveland, o., June S-Advices from
Columbus are TO the effect that the pur-
pose of the meeting of presidents OF coal
miners unions at wilkesbarre. Pa, next
Thursday is to determine whether gem
eral strike OF all coal miners throughout
the country shall be called TO aid In win
ing the strike now on at the anthracite
mines.
The reason the strike was not quickly
settled as at first anticipated, is be-
cause OF the refusal of President Oily
phant OF the Delaware and Hudson. and
President Truesdale OF the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western to cooperate
with the several other coal roads who
were willing to accept Senator Hanna
as an arbitrator. Realizing the hopeless
ness OF a settlement without these two
roads the miners are going to bring TO
bear all the pressure possible in an effort
TO force a settlement as quickly as pos
sible or as an alternative inaugurate a
