EVENTS OF DAY IN WEST SCRANTON fcOOAL MINERS BELIEVE STRIKE IS MOT PROBABLE. Stations on Which This Belief is Founded V.aduct Boomers Will Make an Effort to Get the Pro ject In Such Shape as to Enable the City to Get n Contribution from the D., L. & W. Company. Meeting of Webster Literary and Debating Society. The outcome of the conference of miners held In this city on Thursdny Is awaited with much Interest by the resi dent mine workers of West Scranton, and whatever the determination of the leaders might be, It Is safe tn predict that there will not bo a strike, us far as the mnjorlty of the Delaware, Lack awanna and Western company's em ployes arc concerned. The Tribune correspondent Interviewed a number of mine workers last evening and the gen eral sentiment was ncalnst a strike. It Is contended that while a differ ence of opinion exists regarding th powder question and other matters which have been under consideration for some time, the alleged grievances will not necessarily cause them to abandon their woik. Another argument which Is advanced asolnst a strike Is the fact that many of the employes on n property in thl.t vicinity and have large families de pendent upon them, and now that th" mines are working eight hours 11 day nnd six days a wvek, they aie In i poltlon to earn money to apply on In debtedness which was Incurred during the past two years when work was very slack. During lift? the mlneis averaged nbout eleven days u month and In lSis they worked on an average of fifteen days, and in 1S9'J about twenty days, nnd during the past thice months they have earned more money than at any lime In u similar peilod for several years. As far as equalizing the scale In the various collieries is concerned, It would be practically Impossible, It is said, as the existing conditions ate far from being similar. SLATTKRY FUNKRAL.
