THE COAL MINERS STRIKE.
Extent of the Trouble. Loss of Wages.
Cause of the Strike.
Philadelphia, Sept., Ii. The order
of President Mitchell calling out the
miner in tbe anthracite coal region of
Peenniylvhnta - recall the last great
Hrlke in the tame dlttrlct three yeart
ago, which was practically ended by tbe
'.ragedy at Lattlmer, in which twenlj
one miner were killed and over fifty
wounded by Deputy 8berlfft. The strike
inaugurated today by the United Mine
Worker will for t'le time being term!
nate operation In the most productive
hard-coal field In the world.
Tbe mine employes In the anthracite
district of Pennsylvania number about
143,000. Tbe membership of the. nnlon
is not known to a certainty, but the
leaden claim that about 80 per cent, of
the minors are organized. The nnlon
men do not anticipate any difficulty
hi Inducing tbe unorganised miners to
strike.
Tbe ooal basins extend over an area of
about 470 square mile and are diatrl-
bated throughout several counties. Tbe
average production from tbe entire dls
trtct is 79,000,000 ton a year.
The closing of th mine I expected
to reduce th regular ooal production
about 78 per McL, leaving free only tb
Reading Ooal and Iron Company' pro-
duclloa of 20.8 per cent, of the total
output of th region and 8.68 per eent.
of th Lehigh Valley's production.
Should th ttrlk eoatlnn oyer a pe
riod of two month, th lot la wag
will amount to 800,000j lost to ra'
roada, 30,000.000, and loss to sum
operator, f'30,000,w00. Officer of
miner' anion estimate that th organi
sation ha a cash balance of $1,000,080
ia th treasury with which to conduct
th ttrlke. . v ; .
. Ia their demands the miners ask the
correction of meay evil, th mora Im
portant of which an tb following:
. Abolition of th company store) re
duction la the pile of powder to 1.80
kg abolition of company doctors; semi
