Are Storing Coal
Ready for Any
Strike.
IN LOCAL YARDS

PITTSBURG, Nov. 27:-A secret
meeting was held in Philadelphia a
few days ago by the anthracite op-
orators. They decided to fight the
demands which will undoubtedly be
made by the United Mine Workers of
America This includes recognition
of the union. an eight hour work day
and a minimum wage rate for day
labor. The coal operators decided to
call in their sales agents until the
trouble is settled, and no more coal
is to be offered for sale. They also
decided that if their mines are to be
closed down the plants of the bitum-
inous operators must also close at
the same time. 1t has not been indi-
Gated how this is to be accomplished.
A Pittsburg operators representa-
tive said he had never seen such a
large tonnage of coal stored at this
time of the year. Every storage bin
from Sunbury east up to Wilkes
Barre and Scranton are filled to ov-
erfowing One railroad at great
expense has erected a great storage
plant and large dealers and railroads
have purchased, leased or rented,
storage bins outside of Philadelphia.
The Pittsburg man said that the an
thracite operators will clean up at
least $20,000,000 on stored coal If
the strike is to continue for any
length of time.
Coal of all grades is being rushed
here over the Lehigh Valley as fast
as possible. Considerable of it is be-
ing stored at the local and South
Plainfield yards, but some is being
loaded into barges and sent down
east The new conveyor for the Mu-
nicipal ferries of New York takes a
large amount of coal each day.
Over at South Amboy, the ship
ping port of the Pennsylvania rail
road, the great mountains of anthra-
cite coal are not allowed to get low.
The stockyard is kept filled to its ca
pacity, or nearly SO. 1t is under
stood that enormous stockyards are
soon to be built between South AM
boy and Old Bridge where thousands
of tons more can be placed ready for
any emergency
The same report comes from Port
Reading, where the Philadelphia &
Reading road is shipping.
