1t is reported from Pittsburg that the
independent coal operators of western
PENNSYLVANIA will form an association to-
night. The committee will make its report
tonight, and officers will be elected. The
object will be the banding together of all
independent operators in this district. The
idea of forming the association was sug-
gested at recent meeting of the indie
pendents held In that city to decide what
action was to be taken regarding the wages
paid to the miners this year. Chairman f.
L, Robbins of the Pittsburg Coal Company,
who was chairman of the operators was
the first to propose an advance in wages.
The Independents opposed an advance at
this time but were compelled to pay the
higher rate Now they have decided to form
an association similar to that of the west
ern operators.

said the ministry must give way 70 a
cabinet in which the people had con-
1idcnce. Roditchcif announced that the
governments epy had dashed 10 the
ground all his hope Of working IN har
