THE COAL MINERS WIN GREAT STRIKE. 1 Operators Accept all Condi? tions of Miners?A Great Victory For Labor. Philadelphia, Oct 17 ?Tbo great strike of the anthracite mine workers of Pennsylvania, which began Sept. 17, practically ended today when the Philadelphia and Reading Coal and Iron company, and the Lehigb Valley Coal company agreed to abolish the sliding scale in their respective regions and to grant an advance in wagea of 10 per cent, net, the ad? vance to remsin in operation until Apiii 1, 1901, or thereafter. This action meets the demands of the Soranton miners1 convention The deoiaion was arrived at after a con? ference between representatives of the individual coal operators sod the large ooal carrying companies The conference began yesterday. Today's action was the colmina tioo of the recent meeting of the in? dividual operators at Scran ton, follow iog the mine workers1 convention in the eame city. Nearly all of the collieries^ in the coal region bad, previous to the mine workers1 con ventioo, posted notices grading an advance of 10 per cent. The mine workers io considering this demand? ed that the sliding scale in the Lehigb and Sebuylkill districts be abolished, the increase to be guaranteed until April 1, 1901, and all other differ ences be submitted to arbitration The individual operators agreed to everything and the appointment of a committee to induce the Reading and the Lehigb companies to abolish the eliding scale and make the wage Inoreaae permanent followed It is conceded thst the reault of today's conference ia a complete victory for the men. All the demands of their convention are acceded to and as one of the individual operatora put it after the conference, the operators go a little farther in agreeing to main? tain the wage advance after April 1 Tbia same operator, who required that bia name be not used, aaid in apeaking of the conference : "Its all up to the miners now. We have agreed to everything and noth? ing remains now but for tbem to return to work as soon aa the notices are poated by the colliery managers These noticea will be practically almilar to the Reading company's notice, the phraseology only being changed 1 look for a resumption of operations by Monday at the latest. Tbe conference was entirely bsrmoni oos and every pbrsse of tbe strike aituation was gone over " Tbe Resding company's notice reads : "It hereby withdraws tbe notice posted Oct 3, 1900, and, to bring about practical uniformity in tbe advance of wages in tbe several ooal regiona, givee notice that it will suspend tbe operation of the sliding aoale, will psy 10 per cent sdvauce 6n September wages till April 1, 1901, and thereafter until further notice ; and will take up with its mine employes any grievances which they may have." ?aanrja? ???

D Nieb?ll, Dis trict Secretary John T Dempsey and National Organizer Dilcber, of the United Mine Workers, have all been quoted as saying that tbe reasons of the Scrauton convention contemplated a straight advance of 10 per cent for all parts ot the region ai <i that the matter of having this increase made up io part of a decrease iu tbe cost of powder, iu these upper regions where powder is 6old for $2 75 a keg, was not to be agreed to Tbe powder question, they one and all said, was left out of the present negotiations with tbe understanding that it should form one of the griev ances to bo adjusted in tbe confer? ence which tbe offer says tbe operat? ors agree to have with their men to "lake up any grievances they may have." President Mitchell when informed by telephone of the action of the operators, stated that ho would have to decline to discuss its probable effect in reaching a settlement uutil he had given tbe matter careful con sideration. He would not ssy wheth er or not it would be possible to desl with the difficulty without calling another convention. GENERAL BULLER EXCUSES HIMSELF.
