mine officials in and about this city
were seen, today. in reference to the
mine commission award, but nearly all
declined to make any comment. The
manner in which they express them
selves, however, would indicate that
they are satisfied, or at least willing

it's provisions. An official of the larg-
est corporation who would talk, said
the award was practical vindication
of the coal companies.
The Lehigh Valley Co. has in its en-
ploy 35 900 men, and majority of them
will receive from SIS to $50 each. The
miners also made good wages since the
strike ended and will profit by the

that the claims of the relatives of Mrs.
Fair. to the Fair estate had been set
tied for $25o,OOO. A friend of the fam
lily who is in position to speak said
he doubted that such settlement had
been effected. If the report said the
settlement was on the basis of $685. 900
to each of the relatives of Mrs. Fair, he
would place some reliance in it. From
his manner of talking it could easily
be inferred that negotiations TO settle
on that basis are in progress. 1t is said
that a representative of Mrs. Oelrich's
recently made several trips to this
place and to Plainfield.
