MR. CORBIN’S POSITION.

A Reading (Pa.) dispatch says: “The breach between th? Reading Railroad Company and its striking miners seems to be widening. To-night the impression prevails Ihroughout the regions that they aro farther from a settlement of their difficulty than ever before

President Corbin’s refusal to see the committees of the strikers, his decisive answers to tne business people of Schuylkill County, that he will not treat with any body of men as a labor organization, are all looked upon as evidence that he has decided to defy the miners. Coil is getting scarcer daily, and many of the dealers are entirely out and can not supply the demands of their customers. ”

AUSTIN CORBIN.
