United Mine Workers officials urged 2000 anthracite miners in Hazleton to approve a tentative contract ending a month-long strike.

Strike hurts economy yet coal outlook remains bright

The coal strike has shaved about 1.5 percentage points from second quarter growth and cost utilities and coal users millions weekly, yet industry leaders like Carl Bagge of the National Coal Association still see a strong, expanding market for coal. Utilities, steel producers, and railroads face inventories and price pressures as they await a settlement and pass higher costs to customers.
