Wilkes Barre oct. Presi Dent Mitchell s hurried visit to new York bears fruit the end of the mine workers strike seems a Long Way off and the Prospect of sul Lucient Coal be ing mined to satisfy the Public de Mand is extremely poor. Every local Union of the miners Organiza Tion throughout the hard Coal Belt held special meetings either last night or to Day and resolved to re main on strike the mine owners rant them some concessions. And while the reports of these meet inst came pouring into Wilkes Barre president Mitchell dictated a letter to the president of the l United states in which he gave his answer to th-5 proposition that the strikers return to work and i ust to have their condition improved through an investigating committee. What the answer of the miners chief is he refused to divulge but it is difficult to conceive that wit i the replies of the Loc Al unions piled around him he could do otherwise than respect Cully in Cline the president s proposition. Or. Mitchell sent his letter to washing ton before he had heard from All the locals and at a o clock in the after noon accompanied by the three District presidents left for new to Ork.
