Danger Last Night of Ironton,
O., Men Again Quitting
Their Positions,
TROUBLE ONLY Y PARTLASETTLED.
On the West Virginia and Kentucky
Divisions the Men Were Still Out.
Laboring Men In Conference Last
Night.

Ironton, O., Aug. 5.-Yesterday S
situation in the street railway strike
had been without incident on the Iron
TON division. The union men were
operating cars on schedule time IN
accordance with an agreement reach
cd at a conference concluded early
Monday morning, but last night there
was strong evidence of a renewal OF
the strike in sympathy with the men
on the Huntington and Ashland divis'
ions. It was confidently expected that
the agreement reached here between
the company and employees OF this
division only would be the basis of
settlement all along the line. The
strike in the Kentucky and West Vir-
ginia towns was still on, the company
refusing both to recognize the union
and to reinstate the discharged men.
AS a result of visits between the com
mittees yesterday it was said to be
definitely decided that the lronton
men would again go out, unless the
company shall make terms with other
divisions Immediately. Simultaneous
~ with a conference here, labor mass
meetings to discuss the strike were
being held at Huntington, but no de-
cision was expected until late last
hight. The company officials were
waiting at the hotel to hear any prop
ositions from the strikers.
No Settlement on Other Divisions.
Ashland, KY, Aug. 5.-Not a car on
the Camden Interstate Railway sys'
lem was running in this city last
night. The road was blocked with
cross ties between here and Catletts
burg. There was some excitement
but no violence, except shouts OF
"scab," and abundance of rotten eggs
when attempts were made to operate
cars. The strikers posted the follow
ing:
Strike. Street cars are declared
unfair. The laboring men along the
line are requested not to ride on the
cars until the strike is declared off.
By order of committee"
President Graham, of the Camden
system, said:
1--WE are not opposed to any union
The men discharged were turned of
for cause, which they can learn on
application to us. No discrimination
mas been Or will be made in our treat
ment of employees, whether or not.
Huntington, W. Va, Aug. 5.-The
day was a quiet one yesterday with
the strikers on the Camden Interstate
hallway. No violence was reported
throughout the day, notwithstanding
.hat cars were operated regularly
with non-union men. Practically no
one patronized the cars. No effort
seemingly was being made to effect
a settlement of the strike.

WILL ADVANCE COAL PRICES.
West Virginia Operators Will Do Sc
Owinu to Strike.

Cincinnati, Aug. 5.-An important
meeting of West Virginia coal oper
a1ors was held in this city yesterday,
looking toward what the operators
tenn a betterment of the conditions
which they have to contend with at
this time. The first and most i'm
portant question is the uniformity OF
rates for the coming winter season
end some of the operators are author
i.y for the statement that the price
will advance within the next few
months because of the great losses
which the companies have been
obliged to stand in the way OF strikes
A matter which was considered also
was the shipment of coal to the Lake
Superior regions, the control of which
was contaminated in Chicago in April
and which was to become effective
in September.

The reel kept singing the sweetest
