Ratch- ford, president of the United Mine Workers of America, who is attending aspecial meeting of the officers of the National Federation of Labor, gave out the following statement to-day: To-day will see about 75,000 miners resume work in the bituminous coal fields of the cen- tral states. The strike generally ends to-da ‘This is the middle of the 12th week of its dura- tion. It was brought to a close at our conven- tion held at Columbus, O., on the 8th to the 11th of the present month, the ten days’ time being given to allow miners and operators to come together in Illinois and West Virginia to meet the prices ftixed—65 cents a ton in Pittsburgh, 56 cents in Ohio and Indiana—the same to tnue till the end of December. The mining situation is not likely to disturbed again until the beginning of next ye we hope to be able to settle wave differences amicably and without the necessity of a strike. I om well satisfied with the agreement reached, and feel that it is the greatest victory gained by the trades unions for years. Of course, the victory is not altogether one of the miners. While they have done the striking, trades unions and organized bodies have supplied the necessaries without which the miners could not possibly succeed. It is a victory for organ- ized labor and not for any particu we want our friends who have helped us to feel that it is their victory as well as ours. I feel rateful for the assistan en us by the ‘an Federation of Labor and the kindly disposition shown us at all times by Mr. Gom persand the members of his executive com- mittee. re Asked as to the situation in West Virginia and Illinois, Ratchford said: My advices from West Virginia are to the that our miners are standing firm, are pleases hthe agreement reached and evinew a determination to fight their battle to theend. Our purpose is to bring the miners and operators of that state together in a joint convention, thata uniform mining price may ve fixed and paid for the same vein of coal, and a fair relative price for other veins within the state. As to Illinois, a convention of the Mlinois miners is being held now. I have not had any advices from there, but can safely pre- dict what they will do. They will continue the strugyie until fair prices are established. iltnots Miners still Out. Sr. Louis, Sept. 21.—Pursuant to an agreement reached at the mass meet- ing of the miners at Belleville, IL, Sunday, work was resumed at a num- ber of additional mines in the Belle- ville district to-day.
