MINERS T0 VOTE 0N PAY DEMAND:
 STRIKE FAVORED

SEATTLE, Sept. 23.-Union coal miners throughout the state of Washington have been ordered to hold a referendum on the question of striking to enforce demand that recent advance in wages be made retroactive to August Is.
 The operators were served with an ultimatum early this week. the men declaring that they would call a general strike today unless the operators consented to the demand made upon them. In their answer the operators explained that the coal mined during the period covered by the demand had been sold and that compliance with the demand would mean flat loss of nearly $100,O00. with no chance to recover.
 Union miners employed by the day were granted an increase of $50 last week, and it is now de- manded that the advance be made retroactive to August 16.
 At conference held on Tuesday between miners and representatives of the operators, there appeared to be little hope of averting a strike. At a late hour last night, however, it was decided to put the question up to the locals through the medium of referendum and arrangements are now being made to take the vote. There appears to be strong sentiment in favor of striking.
