NEW SCALE FUTILE.

Mines Remain Out.

UNIONTOWN, Pa. August 25.-The
new wage scale posted recently in
Fayette county granting miners an
increase. has had little effect upon the
strikers. according to reports today
from operating companies. Practically
all union locals in the coke region
have decided to remain out until
recognition of the United Mine Work
ers is granted.
A few men have returned to work.
no general movement back to the
mines. The H. c. Frick Coke Com
pany, subsidiary of the United States
Steel Corporation and the w. ].
Rainey Company, big independent, re-
port slight gains in their forces.
Many miners are being brought into
the region from other states, and pro-
duction of coal, as a result, has in
creased. Last week. mines on the Bal
timore and Ohio loaded 500 cars more
than the week before. Production is
the highest since the strike started.
A new turn in eviction of the fami
lies of strikers was recorded at Sher-
iff l. |. Shaw's office today. The
Eviction squad journeyed to Foot
dale to eject fifteen families. Eight
were evicted. but, the deputies re-
ported, the other seven decided to re-
turn to work rather than be put out
of company houses. Tent colonies
throughout the coke region, where
strikers and their families have
found shelter reported increased pop
ulations daily.
The strike situation during the last
three days has been exceptionally
quiet.

By the Associated Press.
DRESDEN, August 25.-A Ger

rived from Cork yesterday, was first
removed to st. Vincents Hospital,
where Arthur Griffith died SO recent
ly. and then, last night. to the city
hall. where the body will lie in state
until Sunday. The funeral has been
set for Monday morning. with solemn

RAISE IN DISTRICT
ESTIMATES LIKELY
Commissioners Compile Ad-

at Hearing.

Although the bureau OF the budget
has fixed s24,50o,0oo as the limit be-
yond which the Districts estimates
must not go, the Commissioners are
hopeful of having that limit raised
at the hearing which Budget Director
Lord has promised to give them next
month.
The city heads will comply with
the direction to reduce the Districts
budget to s24.50o,0 900. but they are
compiling a supplemental list of the
more important projects. including
street Improvements, which have been
eliminated in the process of pruning.
Hearing After September Is.
This supplemental list win accom-
pany the regular estimates to the
Treasury Department on September
IS, and shortly thereafter Gen. Lord
will hear arguments from the city
fathers on the necessity for the ad-
ditional items.
District officials are banking their
hope of obtaining more money lCr

inspection which either Gen. LORD or
one of his assistants will make of
the streets of the city.
1t is felt at the District building
that such an inspection Will be sur
ficient argument in itself to convince
any one that the highways are not
what they should be in the capital OF
the nation.
Item Cut 100000.
When the estimates were original
IL framed they included s1,2oo,ooo
for new street paving, in addition to
the regular lump sums for repairs to
streets and for upkeep of suburban
roads.

! new streets had to be cut nearly
million dollars.
