The. strike situation took a decisive turn Tuseday toward a settle. ment by the action of the Illincis oper- ators agreeing to an adjustment of the scale on a satisfactory basis to the miners. The aspect of affairs was changed somewhat in the Pittsburg district as a resolt of the operators meeting in the chamber of commerce, which had quite as much bearing up on the prospective ending of the strike as the conference between the miners’ officials and operators in Illinois. The IHinois districts refused to send representatives on the operators’ side to the Cleveland conferemee, which was largely responsible for the lsilnre of negotiations. Francis Lo Robbins, the Pittsburg operator, Tuesday re ceived three telagrams from as many different operators of llinois armouge- ing that a satisfactory agree would be reached between the miners ‘and operators, and stating that Presi- dent McBride looked settlement.

Kerr, reopened Monday morning and will continge in session until the requisite number of days for : anplotedd, The injunction was to restrain the nuns from teaching in the garb of their religious order, and was successful, as the directors have elec “ted the following teachers in their places: - Miss McGlade and Miss Mary Dougherty of Portage: Mise Mary O'Malley and Miss Kate Mc- Miss Margaret Lloyd and Miss Annie Anstead of Gallitzin. Mr. Kerr, when seen in Pittsburg in reference to the action of the directors, “Tl am pleased that the board has taken this action, as there is no inten- tion on my part to deprive the district of its share of the state appropriation. Our whole contention was and always has been against the sisters being pér- mitted to teach in the public schools. “If an opinion is handed down in oar favor, as far as I am concerned, I am satisfied if nothing be said concerning the appropriations used to pay the nuns in the past. What we are looking to is the future, and it is our parpose to prevent any further attempt on the paft of the nuns to resume teaching in their religious garb. It is a question of principle with ns and not one of money, and I have every reason to believe we will eventually win.” Indastricus Firemen, i On Friday the members of the Pat- old Marks saw mill sitnated on Lang ave- nue, at the rear of the borough lot, which greatly xzdds to the appearance of that immediate vicinity.
