PltUburg. July 18. Beyond the
lengthening of th miner' lines along
the rivers, there tu little change In
the strike situation yesterday. The '
Ironclad contracts which were in force
several mines la the Monontrahela
falley wtre swept ett of existence, and
the strike was made sreneral In tht
fourth iiool. The Chamounl, Apollo,
Jack Jones and O'Neill's Payette City
mines, which had been running with a
iglit force of men and under ironclads,
.re Idle. The men ,at the Chamounl
mine were the last lo lay down their
toolB. The miners along the river are
rejoicing over this Victory. The only
mine reported in operation In the ro
lon is the Qultable, at Webster, It Is
. atopic company, comprising about 75
itockholders, and they are mining their
awn coal. j
Tho niyth Coal dotapany has offered
the CO cent rate toWhelr men at the
lied Bird mine, bllt' the ofllcials win
not allow them to go work at present.
A mass meeting wal held at Payetta
City yesterday aftsfnoon, and plans
made to look after (lie strikers In this
and see that no m&ies resume. The
men In the Stlckel iffllow mines of thu
Washington Coal company also came
out yesterday, mnklng the suspension
complete In this district except at the
mines of the New York and Cleveland
Gas Coal company, where about 1,200
men are working. No effort has yet
been mnde to aret these diggers out,
and the miners at other plaees wlw
have laid down their tools are grumb
ling at the slowness of D Armitt's men
n Joining the movement. The hotheads
are advising drastlo measures. They
have been kept in pjieck so far, Vm
there Is no telling when the fever will
break out and a concerted move on
Sandy and Plum Creek made.
The greatest interest Is now maul-.
festad In the et-'heme to arbitrate the
strike question. I4abor commissioners
and ofllcial arbitrators of the several
states affected are mobollzing the city.
Tho slate Of Ohio Is the only one which,
has a regularly nppolnted bpan pf (if,
bltratop, It ex(stt) for Just such em
ergencies ne this, and Is naturally emi
nently well prepared for the work,

clans, who are also well able to act In
the capacity of nrbltrtUprs, The Ohio
board Is composed of S. N. Owen
(chairman) of Columbus, who was for
merly ohlof Justice of the supreme
court of Ohio, ex-Attorney Oeneral
John Little of Xenln, and Joseph
Dlshop of Columbus, formerly presi
dent of the Amalgamated association,
lho Indiana labor commissioners here
ur Jj, McCormaelt, exrpresldent of
the state Typographical union, and H.
Schmld of Indianapolis. James M.
Clark, Industrial statistician of Penn
sylvania, arrived from H&vrsburg yes
terday. The same culclals of the Btate
of West Virginia are expected to get
hero today. The Illinois commissioners
of labor, J, D, Keefe, J. D, GUI and II,
It. Colif, are on their way to Pittsburg,
and will meet the other commissioners
In this city tomorrow. Thus all the
states, with the exception of Kentucky
end Tennessee, where the strike Is on,
will he represented In the conferences
which are to he held here during the
next few days,
Invitations have been sent to the
coal operators of the Pittsburg district
to meet the arbitrators Informally and
talk over the matter of settllne; the
strike, James Young, representing the
M. A. JIanna mining Interests, came
on from Cleveland yesterday and waa
in consultation with the peacemakers.
One or two of the smaller operators
dropped In to look over the situation,
but no Important conference has yet
been held. It Is expected by the arbi
trators that a representative number
of tho local operators will bo gotten
together within tho next 24 hours.
However, persona who are well ac
quainted with the warring factions
that exist ampng the coa.1 operator
here say they will be hard to get to
gether in this move, although the ox
treme gravity of the outlook may have
the desired effect,
Those In touch with the situation say
thnt tho attempt at conciliation will
Blmply reopen the old discussion of
President De Armitt's position on the
neoeasity of a price differential to com
pete with the company stores. An oper
ator who did not wish IiIb name to be
used said: "Personally I think this plan
of conciliation will fall. President De
Armltt will hardly be prevailed upon
at this time to abandon the position
he has held for years. To effect a set
tlement it will be necessary for Mr.
De Armltt to come Into conference with
us and pledge himself to pay the same
prloe that we are paying for the bal
ance of the lake season, or longer. I do
not think he will agree to this. How
ever, If Mr. De Armltt agrees tp give
up the fight. I think a settlement could
be reached very speedily,"
Peace emissaries nailed at President
De Armitt's office yesterday, and It la
said he told them that It would be at
least a day or two beforo he could give
them a definite answer m to the course
of aetlon he proposed to follow If the
operators can be brought Into line on
the conference Idea, there will be no
obstacles Interposed by the miners,
There la a strong Indication of a coal
famine confronting the country within
the next ten days. It la claimed by
oonaervatlve operators that the mar
ketable aupply at present, which la
placed at 10,000,000 bushels, would 1m.
only able to meet the demands of the
market for about a month under ordi
nary conditions. With the scarcity of
coal already prevailing at the lake
ports, It Is claimed the supply will not
laat over two weeks at the longest. In
anticipation of such a condition of
affairs, the coal operators are not very
anxious to fill orders, and are holding
out for the advance In price that la
exDerted to result. The only source of
supply Is Trom tne river mn.f". ne u.e
railroads are confiscating for their own
use all the coal ready for shipment
along their lines. This order was Is
sued laet week, and with the exception
of permitting the railroad operators
filling orders for coaling vessels' at the
lake ports, no coal la allowed to leave
the district. With the supply limited
to the Monongahela district, the pros
pects of famine Is declared to be a
certainty.
There has been a marked Increase In
the price of coat within the past few
days, and It Is claimed that a 10-cent
rate per bushel in boat load lota will be
reached jwlthln the present week. The
retail dealers, as well as the operators
In general, concede that a famine Is
Imminent, and look for prices to ad
vance beyond the limit reached dur
ing the previous general strike of the
miners In 1894.
The operators of the 15 mines In
Marlon county, W. Va., which consti
tute the Patrmount coal region, on
which the result of the great miners'
strike rests, gave an advance of S cents
a ton yesterday to all men. This In
crease In wages, with the S cents given
the men laet Wednesday, brings the
price to 40 cents a ton running coal,
which Is 13 cents more on the ton than
the Pennsylvania miners are striking
for, when the difference of railroad
rates and cost of screening are taken
Into consideration. Notwithstanding
this advance, the sympathies of many
of the miners In that region are with
the strikers, and the organizers may
yet succeed In getting the men ctat.

MANY EMPLOYES UNNATURALIZED.
Only Forty Per Cent, of Men Employed
Inside and But Five Per Cent, of
Outside Workmen at the
Mines Have Naturalisa
tion Papers.
The work of putting the alien tax law in
operation in the collieries of the I'. A It. C.
I. Co. continues with persistent industry and
the canvass of the collieries in this district
will soon be completed. It has thus far
brought to light figures that prove quite in
teresting when taken iu comparison with
some of the polling lists. According to the
figures given by a well known official It
appeals that not half the men employed in
side tho 1. It. C. A I. Co. mines of this
district are naturalised citiisens, and the per
centage among men employed in outside
labor at the mines Is a great deal less. As
thus far accomplished the canvass shows
that about forty per ceut. of tlio men em
ployed inside the mines have secured natural
ization papers, while five per cent, is a fair
estimate of the naturalized men who are en
gaged in outside laW.and these people are not
only of the classes which are commonly
classified as foreigners iu this roginc, but In
clude many men beside the Poles, Lithu
anians, Hungarians and Slavs. A gentleman
who has seen one of the lists says tlmt
shuuld tlio production of naturalisation
papers be insisted upon at the polls on olec
tion day some candidates would fall short of
many votes that are generally counted upon.
Not a few are old men who havo lived in the
country so long and voted so often without
being challenged that they have almost for
gotten that naturalisation is essential to
citiBensliip, and some very amusing incidents
have taken place during the canvass. Many
of the old residents have put fortli claims
that their long residence makes them citi
zens. The canvass prosecuted by the P. A It.
company is a thorough one. All omployes
are required to give their ages, places of birth
nnd term of residence in this country. If
tho latter is sufficiently long to admit a
claim of oltlzcnship the naturaliza
tion papers are then called for,
and if they are not forthcoming
tlio employe is put on record as an aliun'
Notwithstanding the publicity the law has
been glvon of lato thore is a largo percentage
of pcoplo who are ignorant of the object of
tho canvass, nnd nt times somo men have not
only objected to givo Information, but havo
bceomo qnito indignant. "What do you
want to know that for?" asked ono man yes
terday, with somo feeling. "I must make a
record of it," said tlio foreman who was
making a canvass. "Well, I'll ask me mother
and I'll let you know next Sunday after
noon," repllod tlio man iu a singing tone.
Ho gavo the information nfter tho object was
more fully cxplniued. In somo instances it
Is vory difficult to got satisfactory answers to
Inquiries as lo dates, but as a whole the work
lias progressed vory successfully.
At a mooting held last night tho Mahanoy
City School Hoard decided to compell all

QUAY AND HASTINGS.

twern tlio Two.
H.utitisnunrt, July 13. Tho conference
between Senators Quay and Penrow and
Governor Hastings bore last week has given
riso to much political gossip. That Governor
Hastings will veto the llecker bill, which
provides that appointments made by the
.Mayor of Philadelphia must be confirmed by
fi threo-flfths vote of Select Couuoils, has
licen foreseen for somo timo. and tho tiemonnl
appeal mado by Senators Quay and Penrose
has evidently not shaken the Governor's
determination. As a matter or faot, the
Governor lias almost flatly refused to consider
mo pica made by tho United States Senators
in favor of tlio measure, which is vigorously
opposed by Mayor Warwick, David Martin
aud tlio Influences generally which have lieen
lighting Quay in Philadelphia and state
politics for the past five years.
Tne Uovemor gave out the following

was to Induce me to sign the Decker
bill, so-called, relating to Philadelphia,
and they were very urgent. When I
declined to make any promises Sen
ator Quay announced that he would
change his mind, and would become
an active candidate for United States

Don't get rattlel on the
price. rzi m't the only
thing whin you buy goods.
Sometimes the things that cost
most in the beginning are the
cheapest in the end. Our goods
don't cost much more at first,
but the cheapness is apparent
for all times to come. It's a
fact.though, in this queer world
of ours, that price is the only
thing that the smaller it is the
more attention it attracts. We
havea.lot of new GROCERIES
and the prices are very small.
