erance concluded his argument in the case
now before the United States Circuit court

solve the merger Of the Union and the

of numerous witnesses that the Union Pa

the transportation facilities of all the

PEORIA AGREEMENT WIN;

Chicago, Sept. 2.-Although rep
resentatives of the opposing sides in
the Illinois coal strike are said to
have reached an agreement on the es-
sential principles of a settlement
yesterday, there was no prospect that
the details would be adjusted at to-
days conference. The settlement
may require several days.
End Is I'm Sight.
Chicago, Sept. 2.-Following a con-
ference yesterday between committees
of the Illinois Coal Operators associa,
ton and the Illinois body of the Unit
ed Mine Workers of America, it was
announced that the end of the strike
of 10000 coal miners is in sight and
that today will probably see the end
Of the dispute which began on April 1.
Miners and operators have practically
come to an agreement based on the
Peoria contract, and all that remains
for the two committees is the arrange
ment of details in connection with the
settlement.
Not I'm Shape to Resume.
1t will take from two to three weeks
for some of the mines to renew COM
mercial operations after the signing up
of the agreement, as fire safety appli-
ances have to be installed in accord
ance with the new safety appliance
laws and number of the mines are in
bad condition as a result of damage by
water. The settlement will affect the
price of Chicago coal but little for the
price has not risen to any extent, but
there is a great shortage of storage
coal at present in the city and the re-
newal of work will assure a plentiful
supply, no matter what the price.
