Wheeling, W. Va.,Aug. 24.- The strik■ers suffered further losses in the Kanawha valley in the Upper Loup creek regrion and along New river Tuesday. New river mines loaded 600 cars of coal Monday which is a big day's work for normal conditions. In Kanawha 200 more men went to work Tuesday which leaves very few men out. Fairmont increased its output and the Norfolk and Western región shows no sign of a Etrike. Leader Rae in the Fairmont region Tuesday established flve camps of miners. The men will march from camp to camp making visits, holding this to be their right and their interpretation of the injunction given by Judge Goff. It is not likely these marches will be allowed, however. The danger of a coal famine in the Wheeling district has been greatly reduced by the Peddling mines over in eastern Ohio gomg to work, this being their usual market. The strike at Corinth has caused the loss of 1,000,000 brick that were half burned when the miners refused to furnish any more coal.
