A CONCLUSION ARRIVED AT
IL the Boggs Run Coal Miners strIke-A
Conference.


Conference.
Secretary P. McBryde, of the Miners
National Progressive Union, arrived in
the city yesterday morning from head
quarters at Columbus, the object of his
coming being to confer with the operators
of the Boggs' Run Mining Company in
reference to the trouble at their mines.
During the morning Mr. McBryde and
State Organizer NJ. F. Moran went down
to MoundsvilIe to ascertain the state OF
affairs at tie mines there in order TO give
Mr.. Mcbride an idea OF what would be q
fair and equitable arrangement for the
Boggs' run folks.
The conference was held during the
afternoon, Messrs. ]. J. Jones and Philip
Koontz being present for the company and
Messrs. McBryde Moran and VIM. Hercules
on behalf of the men. The conference last
ed at least three hours. The operators stated
that sometime before the strike commit
tee OF miners had waited upon them and
an agreement was made that they would
work for 80 cents car, and on this agreement
they had based their contracts, and they
could not afford to pay any advance under
the circumstances. On the other hand
only one miner could be found who
said such sn agreement had ever
been made. Mr.. McBryde made the point
that it would be folly on the part cf com
psny to make contracts under euch an ar
rsngement, being aware of the fact that
the miners in all railroad banks receive an
advance Of five cents per ton on November
first. The matter was discussed from both
sides and at last tacit agreement was ar
rived at, and Mr.. McBryde was requested
to draw up the agreement in proper form,
which he did, and Mr.. Moran will present
it to the operators to-day for their concur
renee and signatures, as Secretary Nc
Bryde LETT for home last evening.
The agreement to be presented will read
as follows:
THAT the minimum price TO be paid for
mining by the Boggs Run Coal Company
shall be 80 cents per car of % bushels.
THAT in order to determine whether the
miners are entitled to an advance in the
present price Of mining l5O eents)r com
mittee Of two shall be appointed-one by
the miners and one by ihs company, and
said committee shall visit the mines within
such radius Of Boges Run mine as shall
be mutually agreed upon. They shall also
prepare a scale as TO the percentage of
lump, nut coal and slack at the mines
visited by them.
'If the average percentage of nut coal
and slack, as shown by the scale, shall
demand more than so cents per car Of 80
bushels, then the said company shall pay
such advance over 80 cents per car, OF
shall place their miners on an equality
with the men in the mides visited. The
terms Of this agreement do not allow any
reduction below 80 cents per car"
Mr.. McBryde was Of the opinion that
this ia a very fair compromise. under the
circumstances. OF course, this agreement
has no bearing on the 5 cents ton ad-
vance which takes place November 1st.

voters have to ride miles over roogh IOads

WASHINGTON, October $50 many
false and ridiculous statements have been
made about my fathers health" said &T.
Walker Blaine to-day, as be emerged from
the room in which tie Secretary OF State
aud himself had been engaged all day in
hearing the charges against Consul Reed
Lewis Of TaDg'er, 'that the only comment
I deshe to make, is that neither Mr.
Blaine nor any OF bis family or friends
will lske further notice Of any such sensa-
iional and III iustifsble publications"
Some of the friends Of the Secretary,
however, are not quite so reticent. 1t Is
stated with pOsiuveness that Mr.. K K
Hitt, formerly Assistant Secretary under

M these points are pointed cut TO Mr
Blaine's friends here as conclusively es-
tab ishing the falsity Of the publication.
I. is further pointed out that Mr
B.aiue's own letter to Chairman Jones
quoted in the article itself, refutes the
statement made, because therein Mr..
Blaine speaks OF reasons given to Mr.
Jones m0rs than year previously for de-
Ginning The nomination, and the whole
text of the letter, instead of being tinged

choadriRc, was buoyant with hope and
