The News of Birmingham

Birmingham. Nov. 20. .--( Special. )--
 The Tennessee Coal, Iron and Rail- road Company today brought in a train load of Iaborers from Pennsyl- vania and nlionois points to take up work in the coal mines in the Blocton field, in the place. of the striking un- ion miners The train arrived here dt- rect from Cincinnati over the Louis- ville and Nashville Railroad this morn ing as a section of the fast train No. 1 and was sent as special on the Bir- mingham Mineral Railroad to BIocton. arriving there about noon. The men will be put to work at once in the | mines.
 Almost the entire load of men were white. While there have been quite a number of non-union men at work in | the Blocton mine there has not been A sunicient number to get out all the company has desired to, and agents were sent to the North after men. It Is not improbable that publication in Pennsylvania papers last Sunday to | the effect that the strike of the union | men in this section was off, the result of the election of President Roosevelt and that all the union men had re- turned to work. had some effect in gathering the large number of men brought In here today.
 Nothing of1cial is being given ont as to me men being brought in today but great surprise will be given the union men tomorrow, 1t is believed when the men are placed in the mines.
 There Is strong demand for coal. The officials of the Tennessee Coal. Iron and Railroad Company and oth- CTS assert positively that the fight for the 'open shop" is not on the wane but that the strike of the union is be. ing forgotten as the coal production at the mines increases and new men are being brought in to take the plac- es Of the tstrikers. Today marks the be- ginning of the twenty-second week of the suspension from work and strike on the part of the United Mine Work CTS of America in Alabama at the mines of the furnace operators. The leaders of the union miners say that. they have good supply of funds with which to keep up the struggle for many weeks yet to come. They say that to lose the fight means to lose their organization.
