The leading event I or course the eonsammatton f the strike in tbe Bcranton reg-ien. 80 far as It cnrerns as, the strike Is or very little eeeount, that Is antees aadae advantage Is taken of the situation by the operators. The immediate effort will beta steady prts at this port, bat there will be no ne cessity whatever for a great Use la prices, tbe more especially m the season Is pretty well over and ear ecal retrioa ran devote Itself almost exelustvely to tippljfo W? PUT and. Line fer the winter, But even tht ??eW Tiirk market need not he mrtch (Test, d at present, as there is an abundance or stock Already on hand at all the main depots. Of course it will tie t) the imtrest of the New York companies tj make a great raloe in the price, so that all the coal wlc!i they have now on hand, and which they have rained at a low rate, may be sold at high prices and at a large profit. Under the circumstances the company is under the imputation of being concerned in bringing ijout toe strike, wnlcu is undoubtedly to their in terests. And not only sfe ITiey directly interests L It is charged upon them In addition that tltey are always endeavoring to crush out individual opera tors by an abnormal state of the market, either one way r tbe other, and such a state of things they can always bring about by reason or their pover as owners both of the no lues aud of the transportation facilities. In their endeavors In this direction they have been particularly successful, at least In then own particular region. Previous t the atrike the men inSchnylkl'l, dls MtlsDrd with what they called the -'miserably low rate ef wages," were procuring travelling tickets, and were making off in large numbers to Cue upper regions In the hope of obtaining work at the higher rate there paid. Hut the sudden and severe lower ing or the rate of wages In the latter region has sud denly put a stop to all such intentions, and those who thought to better themselves now remain In Schuylkill, where they are mostly content to work for what they can get. That the Scranton men shon'.d strike at the great reduction in wages which was suddenly put upon them was not to be wondered at, though strikes are always to be deprecated and avoided If the com pany made the great deduction with the expecta tion of leaving room ror a compromise, they were for once mistaken In their calculations, and we are heartily glad of It. Hut if they purposely fixed the rate so low In order to precipitate the strike for their own interest, we are sorry that the men Uavo fallen into the trap thus set for them. The coal trade ought not to be arbitrarily ruled by a combination either on the aide of men or employers, and any thing looking towards the thwarting of the unjust demands on either side Is to be welcomed by all who are in any way Interested In the trade. A more just system than that in vogue will be more easily obtained when the present arrangement is per sonally fonnd to work dlssatisfactorlly to all parties, And this state It Is hoped Is now nearly attained. The striking parties are the men employed by the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western, the Dela ware and Hudson, and the Pennsylvania Coal Companies. Why those belonging to the last two have joined the strike is not known, as It was only tbe Lackawanna Company that proposed to reduce wages. The strike In the regions worked by these companies Is general, and some collieries have topped In other regions, not on account of strikes, bat from want of orders.
