May Order General Strike.

Columbus, 0., July 25.—Secretary Patrick Mcßryde of the United Mineworkers of American has returned from Pittsburg. He says that if the demand there for an advance in wages on Aug. 3 is not conceded a strike will be the result. The Indiana miners are 'now out. He says: “If the Pittsburg operators grant the advance a similar advance will be granted in Ohio and Indiana. If the advance is not conceded and a strike is ordered in Pittsburg there can be no question that it will extend to Ohio, and, for my own part, I see nothing but the calling of the different state officials together and the ordering of a general stoppage of work.”
