Vancouver, b. c., April IA spe-

The coal strike is settled The agree
ment has been signed and the men will
return to work at once in all the mines.
An effort was made to keep the men at
the Fernie mines from declaring the
strike off. but better counsel has pre-
vailed and they have fallen in with the
decision OF the men at Michel and Nor
rissey.
The utmost satisfaction is felt by all
classes, and not less by the miners than
by the merchants whose business has
already been Injured by the trouble.
The mon now recognize that the agree.
ment which has been signed is favor
able to them, and that they could not
in fairness have expected more than
they have cen conceded. The company
will now resume active work and as far
as possible try to make up for the time
lost. The construction OF the new coke
ovens will be pushed to completion as
rapidly as possible, and everything bids
fair for summer of unusual activity
