To Celebrate John Mitchell Day.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct 2S-lt is ap-
parent that every colliery in the an
thracite region will be idle tomorrow
and that mine workers will turn out
in a body to celebrate John Mitchell
Day. In view Of the fact that the
mass of the miners would not return
to work the day following the celebra-
ton and that moreover, there would
be another holiday on election day
next week. the mine owners have de-
cided on a general suspension of oper-
atoms. beginning with the closing Of
the mines tonight and continuing I'M
til the day after the election. This
idleness will cut off about 800, 900 tons
and perhaps more, and will reduce
the big surplus stock. The operators
says this reduction is a commercial
necessity as the supply is still large
lv in excess of the demand.
