STRIKE VERDICT.
What the Commission Is Ex-
pected to Recommend.

New York March 6.-The Herald
prints the following as a summary Of
the findings of the coal strike commits
sion appointed by President Roosevelt,
which, it is expected, viii be handed to
the president within a week:
There viii undoubtedly be at least a
10 per cent advance in the pay for
mining, to take effect from the time the
miners returned to work last October.
The per diem employees will not have
their wages increased, but will be rec
commended for the same pay for day OF
nine hours.
The system of pay viii be regulated.
Wherever practicable. the operators viii
be required to pay by weight, instead Of
by the car, and elsewhere by the 1lneal
yard The miners viii have check dock
ing representatives at their own ex-
pense. This viii practically amount to
second increase in wages.
There Will be indirect recognition of
the union, which VIII come when the
findings are submitted by President
Roosevelt to John Mitchell, as president
of the miners union.
The causes Of the strike as found by
the commission viii not be comforting
to the coal mining companies.
The boycott viii be condemned. and
the principle will be laid down that a
miner has a right to work without mo-
lestation even though he does not be-
long to the union
The terms of the verdict are to hold
good for three years, and recommended
lions are to be made for settlements OF
wage and other questions at the end OF
that period.
In local disputes the operators win be
advised to treat with committees of the
/ miners and there may be a suggestion
/ for local board of arbitration.

In June of last year the New York

of I2.8 miles per hour.
1t is the purpose of the mana gement
Of the Vanderbilt lines to give Boston
the twenty hour connection with

Limited to Albany and connecting at
that point for Boston with a train which

average speed of ffty-one miles an
hour, including stops. for the entire dis
lance.
AS both the Twentieth Century Limit
