COAL HOSTING ENGINEERS OF
ILLINOIS MAY QUIT WORK
TONIGHT.
AGE DIFFICULTY
Engineers Want Old Scale of Pay Re.
newed for the Coming Year But op.
orators Want Reduction in Line
With Reduction of Miners Wages.

Chicago, ILL.,, Oct. 81. - The coal
holstlng engineres of Illinois have
served notice on the Illinois Coal On.
orators association that every union
engineer In the bituminous coal fields
OF the state will go on strike and at
midnight. Unless the walkout is
averted the owners admit that it will
cause shut down of practically every
one OF the $50 mines in Illinois and
nearly $4,000 miners, although not di.
rectly involved, will be thrown out of
work.
Want Agreement Renewed.
The engineers demand a continue
tion of the same scale of wages that
mas prevailed for the past year, but tho
operators desire a reduction in line
with the reduction of the wages of the
miners. The engineers have twice re-
fused arbitration.
No Rise In Coal Price.
According to Herman Justi commits
sioner Of the coal operators associa-
ton, there will be no occasion to ad-
vance coal prices unless the scalpers
take advantage of the opportunity to
force up the price. All the Illinois
coal is sold by contract before it is
mined and the price for the entire out
put was fixed when these contracts
were made. The principal mine local
tiles are surrounding Virden, Spring
Valley, Danville and Springfield.

they to find the time for practicing?
Children have retentive memories. and
learning by heart becomes easy If the

are excessively bad for children and
even for older persons. If the practice
is limited to a quarter Of an hour. with
