Quite a Few Mines to Con-

Up until noon today there appar-
emily remained, about one half OF
North erns West Virginia signed up
with the United Mine Workers Of

panies signed up with the union be-
tween yesterday afternoon at 2.45
O'Clock and noon today:
# Those signing UP We're: Grasseiil

Quite few mines continued TO
work on non-union basis in North

Of the operators contend that they
will carry out that policy after the
majority OF the miners decided that
they would pursue that course.
These operators, it is said, are

haps tr1fle higher but do not
check off any money. In the Elkins
section no mines have signed up as
yet, according to reports received
here, and the operators there claim
thev will not until forced into the
union.
In spits along the Monongahela
Railway, efforts will be made to
continue to work on non-union
policy. Considerable tonnage in the
Clarksburg section has not signed
up. and some of it perhaps will not,
while the others probably will come
Through. The non-unlon stronghold
on the Morgantown & Kingwood
Railway apparently is holding its
own thus far.
The Northern West Virginia
Coal Operators Association as an
organization ha snot signed up with
the union but the signing continues

Cost About Evenly Divided
Between Miners and Op-

Rv II. n DUNLAP

What has the coal strike cost
Northern West Virginia? Even the
faintest idea startles one by the
wanton financial waste that has
followed in the wake of the great
est national coal strike that was
ever experienced and some Of the
hardships and Inconvenience can
not be measured in dollars and
cents. 5l 81
Money that was wasted as re-
suit of the coal strike in Northern
West Virginia if discreetly4 expend-
ed would build Fairmont the finest
water works and filtration plant in
miles of the best concrete roads
and perhaps build schoolhouse or
two, which are in great need in this
section, to throw in for good meas
ure.
Loss Thirty Millions.
Even approximations of the dead
loss in the coal strike in Northern
West Virginia are difficult to OBJ
tain 1t will probably range be-
tween S25 100000 and $30,000,000.
With it came the paralysis, Of bust
ness.
In the first place the United
Mine Workers Of America won a
sweeping victory, which was COM
pIete in all details, even to the
extent Of securing the same wage
scale, retention OF the check-off,
but at that the miners were the
greatest losers in dollars and cents.
{ The miners lost lit working
days up to and including Thursday
of this week, which may really be
regarded as the last day for whole
sale non-union operation. Coming
at time when the lake and other
seasonable coal business is on, it
is safe to assume that there would
have been at least ninety days of
work. In order to make allowance
for any 1iberality in the estimate
OF full! time allowed and for the
machine men and leaders who re-
ceive more in wages than the day
men it is assumed that 10000 min
ers received $3.50 day on the
average, which is the amount earn
ed by day men This would run
the enormous total of s13.600,000.
Operators Hard Hit.
On the other hand, the coal op-
orators of Northern West Virginia
have lost heavily also. The loss
sustained by operators will prob
ably aggregate five millions Of dol
lars During the strike it was
necessary to keep fans going regu-
1arly to prevent accumulations Of
dangerous gases. In addition, the
cleaning up of roof falls, damage
to electric wiring. and equipment
and deterioration, were items that
rapidly ran into the wrong side Of
the ledger Of operators. 1t cost
some companies as much as $4,000
a month, it is claimed.
The loss Of employment to the
railroad men, whose livelihood de-
pends on the coal movement out OF
Northern West Virginia, was a big
item. Scores of clerks and steno-
