STRIKE IN SOFT COAL FIELDS
He [. the Man Who Has Been the Lead- CT sf the Operators Who Are Will ing to Restore the Scale
 of I0O3.

Pittsburg, April 1.--Dispatches from the soft coal fields tonight indicate all most a general announcement from the operators of Western Pennsylvania to pay the miners the advance of 5.55 per cent called for in the restoration of the
 scale of 1903.
 With notices posted at the majority of the mines announcing the granting of the scale. the strike in the soft coal fields has lost the threatening aspect that has surrounded it since last Jan- uary.
 Despite these notices 1t was announ- ced from Johnstown that union miners will make a demonstration at the mines of the Berwind- White Coal Company at windber tonight in an effort to get the union miners to come into the or- ganization- The demonstration will consist of a parade but no trouble is ex- pected.
 At Dubois all the men met today and
 voted to remain out with the excep-
 tion of pumpment, engineers and fire men
 The mines of the Fairmont. w. Va. coal section have not entered into the present controversy. Of the forty thou
 sand miners in West Virginia but 5000
 are affiliated with the union mine
 workers about 1.5oO are in the Pan
 Handle section and these have ceased work.
 Announcement was made from Greensburg tonight that the scale had
 been granted by the operators of the mines in westmoreland county. Tn the Pittsburg district there has been little ! change in the past twenty-four hours. Tomorrow being Mitchell day. the an | niversary of the granting of the eight hour day to the miners, all mines will | be closed. Tuesday, however, matters are expected to reach a climax. The | district conventions scale committee will have in readiness the new scale | and then it is expected that most of ! the operators will sign. These will be
 mere formal granting of the ad vance. It is expected that among the first | of the signers will be F. IA Robbins. chairman of the Pittsburg Coal Com pany. who has been the leader of the ! operators in granting the advance. Whatever suspensions may follow on | the part of the independent operators ! in the district. it is said that not over
 5000 Of the 6s.0O0 miners in the dis | trict will go out. The operators op- posed to the advance will hold meet l ing Thursday.
 G. A. Magoon. Vice-President of the | Pittsburg and Westmoreland Coal Com | pany and leader of the independents | who will call the meeting. declared to- | day that he could not predict the po- l sitIon they would assume. Miners of ncials are confident Robbinss compet- iforz will yield

Albany, N. Y.. April 1.-During the last three months of 1905 there were 165.54O alien arrivals at the port of New York, according to the quarterly bulletin of the State Department of La bor made public tonight. This is an increase of 5000 over the reeord-break- ing figures of a year ago. the influx from Italy alone being larger by 10000 than in the last quarter of 1904.
 New York becomes the home of 66,613 of the newcomers" says the Bull letin, and the fact that S5.72s. or one fourth of the 10000 immigrants over 14 years of age can neither read nor write, is not altogether reassuring."

 This Is a summary of reports received here today. The other union miners are scattered over the state. most or them in the Kanawaha- New River fieid' in the Norfolk and Western fields the miners are almost entirely outside the organization and there are only some small strikes caused by local disagree ments.
 The Baltimore and oho railroad IS making preparation for the transporta- ton of West Virginia coal from the Fairmont field to the Lake ports, most of the coal to pass through Wheeling and Eastern ohio via the Cleveland. Lorain and wheeling division to Cieve- land. During former strikes West Vir- ginia coal was held up by the strikers on the ohio side opposite Wheeling.
