MINE OPERATORS CONFER.
Consideration Of the Wage Scale Con-
tinueo in Secret Sc sion.

CLEVELAND, O., May 16-The mine
operators met again in the chamber OF
commerce rooms at 10 o'clock today to
consider their side of the wage question.
At this meeting, which was presided over
by Mr. johnson of Columbus, o., a report
was called for by Mr.. Chapman of Jack
son county, Penn, from the members
present at the Pennsylvania operators
meeting last night. Mr.. Robbins, as the
representative of that meeting, announced
that the Pennsylvania operators
have agreed upon "A rate of 60 cents for the
Pennsylvania and Sc cents for the Hooking
valley district. He was asked by Mr..
Chapman if that was the action of the
Pennsylvania delegates, or whether the
ten Pittsburg delegates still held aloof
from the agreement. His reply to that
was: 1T was the action OF last nights
meeting, and was, | think, the
unanimous sentiment of that meeting"
Mr.. Robbins then said he would
like to know if that was satisiac-
tory to the Ohio operators. One of
the prominent Ohio operators on behalf of
the mine operators of the state replied
that he believed that would he
entirely satisfactory for Ohio and
cooperate with Pennsylvania to secure
that end. Mr.. Robbins then moved that
"A committee of five members representing
each state disappointed TO agree upon scale
of wages TO be presented TO the convention
arranged satisfactorily to each state upon
that basis.
This was agreed to, and the committee
went into session on the wage schedule.
At the afternoon session the scale COM
mittee made its report aud the entire
afternoon was devoted in secret TO dis
cusson of that report. The convention
got no further than the conditions of the
scale, all os which, with the exception of
one, were agreed to. The one condition
upon which an agreement was not reached
was passed over for want Of time. The
scale is not made public as yet, neither
are the conditions given out. but it is said
the convention has thus far been unani-
nous in indorsiug the work of the scale
committee.
The operators met tonight and received
the report of their representatives on the
joint scale committee, which was that no
agreement could be reached with the
miners committee. The operators APP
proved their action in the committee and
gave them vote of confidence. Therefore
the wage question will be thrown back on
the general convention tomorrow morn

CHICAGO. May 16.-The Western Passen-
ger association lines have struck another
small snag in the settlement OF their emil
grant troubles, and it may delay the
amicable results which all of the lines
have been counting upon for the last week.
Passenger Traffic Manager White of the

of the agreement which allows to- the
Southern Pacific percentage OF the emil
grant business of Colorado is not as 1t
should be. and he believes the business
should be given TO the Atchison. This has
made it necessary that the other lines &C.
lay their meeting until the re-
turn Of Mr.. White from the racine
coast, which will be on Friday
of this week An adjournment OF the
association meeting was taken until that
day. 1t is confidently expected thaI 1ue

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE.
Miners Of England and the Continent
Meet IN Rabel-Inangle.

BERLIN, May 16.-Scenes of protracted
confusion are witnessed daily at the
miners international conference owing to
the many different languages used by the
Populations. The British deputation to-
day elected delegate John Wilson as the
principal chairman, the Germans chose
Delegate Struntz TO preside over the Ger
man section, and the French delegates
selected Delegate Lamedin. Upon the
lstter's refusal to take a seat upon the
platform, Chairman Wilson called upon
Delegate Abraham to speak on behalf of
the Welsh miners. Mr.. Abraham was
greeted with storm of protests
which rendered it impossible for
him to make himself heard. The
German interpreter, Ledebur, objected to
the ruling of the chair and resigned his
position. Delegate Wladstein. a member
of the Christian Catholic Workman's club
of Silesia, protested against the election of
the German chairman of the day, Dele
gate Struntz, on the ground that the lat
ter was socialist. Delegate Wladstein
also protested against the spirit of social
Ism prevalent among the delegates at the
congress; the men he represented were
loyal TO Emperor William and the pope. A
great uproar followed, during which dele
gate Convey of the British contingent
shouted that if this sort OF thing was to
continue they had all better 90 home.
This caused an additional uproar aud the
exchange of many bitter remarks The
Germans, who desired u chairman of some
other nationality than that of Mr.. Wilson,
proposed Lamedin, the French delegate.
Herr Liebknecht, the Socialist leader act.
Ing as interpreter, succeeded in smoothing
over the troubles and the congress adjourn
ed for half an hour in which TO consider
the situation.
When the session was resumed Princi-
pal Chairman Wilson declared that the
British delegation desired to further the
general interests OF the miners of Europe.
All were equal and the British delegates
did not seek 10 monopolize the Influence
Mr.. Wilson proposed that the congress
should elect u president for the day, each
section choosing a vice-chRirman.
y M. Lsmedin WAS chosen president for the
day by unanimous vote and Interpreter
Ledeber, after a satisfactory explanation,
resumed his functions.
President Lamedin eulogized the British
delegates for their frank declarations, and
Delegate Abraham addressed the congress
on the subject of the Welsh miners and
their condition. Mr. Abraham asserted
that the miners of Wales We're in favor of
having the mines inspected by practical
miners and were also In favor of eight
hours per day as a uniform days labor and
of bank to bank work. The present condi-
ton Of the Welsh miners was 30 per cent
above the standard of 1889: but there had
been great influx OF labor this year.
