over the outcome Of this affair; don't

ued. "We're willing to do our part, but
we want a full and complete share Of
the results of our labor, and we never
will be satisfied until we get IT.
Mr.. Lewis expressed confidence in
the outcome Of the suspension of work.
and said the miners will win out in all
their demands within thirty days in all
the fields, with the possible exception
Of Illinois and western Pennsylvania.
q Mr. Lewis said he did not look for
any shortage OF coal nor any suffering
among the men. The mines have had
big run for the last four months and
hnndSed9 OF thonsands Of tons Of coal
in excess Of the usual output are now
stored by the operators, he said.
Several Of the most extensive oper-
atQrs already have made offers for a
settlement, according to Mr.. Lewis, but
in each instance he has refused to ne
gotiate or permit them to reopen their
mines.

Steel Corporation Orders All Work on
Sabbath to Cease.
New York, April 2.-E. H. Gary,
chairman Of the finance committee Of
the steel trust, has sent a telegram to the
presidents Of the constituent. companies
to the effort that from now on the
working Of men on Sunday is to be
abandoned wherever possible
The corporation has 100000 men on
its pay rolls. The order means that
from now on, wherever the thing can
be arranged, each one of these en-
pioyes Is to be given one day in the
week for rest and recreation. The sac
srifice that the corporation is making is
indicated by the fact that heretofore
about one man in five of the 100000
has been working seven days each
week.
The order which Chairman Gary is
now enforcing was adopted by the fin
ancial committee April %, 1907, but
for one reason or another has remained
a dead letter.

him instantly. Gilbert. upon learning
that Neibert had discovered his action,
