ENGINEERS ARE BEING LEFT

III ILKESBARRE. Pa, Oct. 28.-The
w resumption Of mining through
out the anthracite region was not
as general today as was expected. IN
loOked-for difficulties were encountered

dangerous roofs. which threatened 20
fan and entomb the workers. were also
discovered in many Of the collieries.
The mine superintendent would take
no chances. and the mining OF coal
was put of until all parts Of the I'M
dergr0und workings can be made safe.
This viii take a few days. and in some
cases weeks. In some Of the collieries
the machinery connected with the
hOisting OF coal worked badly and IL
was found necessary TO close down
after the miners were ready to go TO
work. The number OF mines reported
in operation is a little less than two
thirds OF the total number. The out
put OF coal was less than half the nor

ton. Their collieries are in better con

be looked for tomorrow. About one
half or the mines OF the Delaware az
Hudson company were working. ana
the output OF those In operation was
light. The mines Of the Susquehanna
Coal company at Nanticoke were IN
operation but only the upper Levels
could be worked, as the lower levels
contained much water
In three days. however. IL is expected
that the output OF coal Will reach the
full quota. The Lehigh Valley Coal
company operated about one-half OF
It's mines with a full force OF men.
The Lehigh & WiIkesbarre Coal COM
pany mined coal In several OF its big
mines, but all OF its eollieries will not
be IN condition TO resume before Mon
day. The Kingston Coal company
started up two of its collieries. The
other two will start on Monday.
II looks as though the union engl-
neers were going 10 have some Nfi-
Guilty getting back their old places At
nearly every mine where the striking
engineers made application for work
today they were told that there were
no vacancies. A large number OF car
penters are also out. President Mitch
ell today advised the men to wait few
days and see II employment would not
be offered them. He believes that when
general resumption takes place there
viii be few mine employees idle. The
dremen are being taken back in larger
numbers than any OF the steam men
because they take the places OF men
who are not 80 capable.

OUTSIDE THE BREAsTwoRKs.
Engineers and Firemen Are Not Be-
ing Taken Back.


Chicago. Oct. 23.-Presldent Morton
OF the International StauonarY Engi-
neers and Firemen stated that all
members OF the association all over
the country would bg ordered 10 re-
fuse TO handle any anthracite coal IN
tn every member affected by the an

OF $4,000 and has local unions in IA
towns and cities. Including Chicago,

land. Baltimore, ST. Louis, Kansas

President Merton declared his or
ganiZatlon was in a position 10 shut
out hard coal in all cities where it
had local unions and said such action
would be taken if necessary for the
protection OF the members who had
lost their positions on account OF the
anthracite coal strike. This Is Pres
ident Morton's view Of the situation;
According 20 all reports from east
ern mines our men are getting the
worst OF II. and while the miners are
being reinstated they are left out in

"Our organization does not propose

them. The stories about trouble being

Navy Report On
Mariposa Oil Trip

Washington, Aug Ist 2S. - Although
the official report of Lieutenant Win.
chell, who was detailed to accompany
the oilburning steamer Mariposa on
her recent trip FROM San Francisco to
the Society Islands and return for the
purpose OF making a comprehensive
report upon every feature of the Oil
burning devices used by that steamer,
has not yet reached the Navy Depart
ment, unofficial data has arrived which
Is considered very satisfactory to
those interested. the run from San
Francisco Is 3,i3S knots. II was made
by the Mariposa at the rate of 1912
knots per hour the whole run lasting
eleven days, during which little over
400 tons of oil were consumed. The
number of pounds o; oil per knot used
on the run was 1908, which is equiva-
lent to S.5S knots per ton Of oil. II re.
quired LBS pounds of oil per hour TO
develop one.horse power This is con-
sidered quite satisfactory, as under Or
binary sea.going conditions II requires
between two and one.half and three
pounds Of coal to develop one.horse
power.
