DISSATISFIED MINERS.
'finite of Sttiuton No. 7 Held n Meet
ing Yesterday.
Vllkcs-Harre, Sent. P.O. The minora
employed at tho No. 7 colliery of the
Lehigh and YVllkes-Uurre Coal com
pany have for some time been dis
satisfied with their treatment by the
mine olllcials who, they claim, have
been docking them excessively. They
nlso claim they are compelled to erect
brattice work nnd receive no compen
sation for their work.
With the Idea of formulating a list
of grievances to be presented to the
company several hundred of the em
ployes held a meeting yesterday morn
ing, and discussed the questions under
consideration and later a committee of
peven was unpointed to wait on Wil
liam Thomas, the mine foreman, and
present their grievances. Mr. Thomas
received the committee quite cordially
but said he was unable to grant their
lequest. as in the first place lie did
not consider the dockage exorbitant, as
out of CIS cars of coal hoisted out of
the shaft yesterday, only six quarters
had been docked for light loading, and
the remainder of tho dockage was on
account of slate and dirt. As the
men's crlevnnce was that they had
been docked for light loading, this part
of their grievance was met and sot
aside. The men, however, claim they
ore being excessively docked nnd com
plain of the docking boss.
Regarding the second article of the
men's grievance, Mr. Thomas said that
was n matter In which he could not
help them. lie said: "We have been
and still are paying you for setting
props, and ns the only reason we have
for placing props is tn furnish you
"with something to nail the brattice to,
I, think wo nre doing all that can be
expected, and If you refuse to place
brattice or props at the same rates as
at present I can see only one way out
of tho difllculty and that Is to declare
your chambers Idle whenever gas Is
found and hnve them remain Idle un
til I can send company men to do the
work."
This ended the interview and the
commute returned to the Umpire base
bull srounds. where the meeting had
been held nnd where the majority ot
the miners were still waiting t hear
the report.
It was agreed that the grievances be
put in writing and presented to Super
intendent Iawall with a request that
he give tho matter his personal atten
tion and have the grievances adjusted.
The men are ot the opinion that Mr.
Lawall will see that Justice Is done.

THE MARKETS.
Wnll Street ltnvtcn
New York, Sept. 30. There was no
sign of anything in today's stock mar
ket to give encouragement to the hope
of those who profess to believe that the
market has run Its course so far ns
reaction Is concerned and Is ready to
resume its upward course. The char-,
ncter of the dealings did not differ in
any respect from those of yesterday.
Prices were raided down with great
facility and the dec.'lnes Invited large
offerings. Tho slight rallies which oc
curred a few times, on the contrary,
led to an almost total cessation of ac
tivity and the upward course of prices
was halting and difficult. The net de
cline achieved today is very much
greater than that of yestertfay only
because the bears reserved their great
est efforts for the last half hour of
trading, leaving no opportunity for re
covery before the close. This was ap
parently owing to an excess of con
fidence on the part of the bears, who
were content to leave their short con
tracts uncovered over nlcht, instead
of realizing immediately. The market
continued almost wholly profesional
and the dealings seemed to be con
fined to the room traders, except where
the sharp declines uncovered orders
placed to stop losses. Total sales were
393,200.
