All Summer.
Philadelphia, April ,-Unlike the
ettuation in the soft coal fields, whore
thousands of men are idle because Of
wage disagreements, conditions in the
anthracite held of Eastern Pennsyl-
vanfa. 80 far as employment is con-
cerned, are growing better and the
prospects for steady work are brighter
than they have been in six months.
It is expected that the mines through
out these regions will work full blast
all summer. The winters stock of
coal has been exhausted and there is
practically no coal on hand at any of
the storage points. The anthracite
regions are at present free from labor
troubles, the three years wage agree
ment having one more year to run.
