THE COAL STRIKE.

It is difficult to see just what the
coal miners. particularly those of
Pennsylvania, expect to gain from
striking. Those miners in some of the
bituminous regions where there is no
great supply Of coal on hand might
possibly force. some concessions from
the operators, but why should the an
thracite operators concede anything
when they have mountains Of coal on
hand now? They viii actually be BEN
ehted by a strike; and to the outsider
it appears as though the miners are
actually playing into their hands by
striking.
Where there is coal shortage, and
where the operators have contracts to
fill or trade that they are in danger Of
losing, the miners might gain some
thing by a strike Taking the country
as a whole, however. the miners ap-
pear to be at a disadvantage. This IS
the view of the situation taken by
Henry C1ews, the New York financial
authority In discussing monetary con-
ditions he says:
prospects of the coal crisis are very
much mixed. Conditions seem unfavor-
able for the miners. inasmuch as there
is a large stock of coal on hand, and
it IS asserted that as a class they are
already much better off than usual,
and that trade conditions do not war
rant a further advance in wages. The
dispute, however, IS still in a critical
state. and while the probabilities favor
some sort Of compromise the outcome
is still uncertain. Mr. Mitchell seemed
anxious to avoid an open rupture; yet
ii was difficult to see how he could do
so without a backdown- something
which, as matter of prestige, he
could scarcely afford to do. A strike
at this time is especially unfortunate.
because of its effect upon an over-sen-
sitive and somewhat hysteIical state OF
public opinion. The latter is consider
ably incensed at the abuses of both
organized capital and organized labor,
and it realizes that any concessions to
the latter must result in an increased
price for commodity which is already
selling at abnormally high figures. It
is quite evident that a prolonged rup-
ture between capital and labor at this
time would accentuate the public de-
mand for government interference
policy from which, in the end, organic
ed labor would suffer just as much as
organized capital"
So while public sentiment is very
pronounced against the coal trust, it
does not seem to be a very suspicious
time for the miners to go on strike
with a view to forcing up wages.
