SPRINGFIELD, Ills, June l. The confer
ence Of coal operators of Illinois called to
attempt a settlement of the strike ad-
journed sine die without having accom-
pllshed anything to break the strike. The
conference passed resolutions deploring
the fact that the southern operators re-
fused to meet with those from northern
Illinois, and announcing that the latter
were ready to fix a scale satisfactory to
all.
Charles Ridgely, president of the Con-
solidated mines, fatty refused to enter
the conference, and sent word to that eff
feet. The members criticized Mr. Ridgely
severely claiming settlement could be
effected at tli- meeting II he would go in.
c. NJ. Swallow, representing the Danvllle
field, said he would speak in behalf Of his
section, that they would not enter the
conference because the Consolidated mines
were not in. II Ridgely would come into
the conference he would allow the Dan
vile field to agree to anything that might
be done. Mr.. Swallow also stated that he
had been authorized also to speak in like
manner for the fields in central and south
| ern Illinois.
r. w. Tracey, Of this city, deplored the
| failure Of the conference, saying: eve are
not conquered by the miners but by the
operators, and can do nothing unless
every operator in Illinois agrees to do
somsthing with u.s."
Several Of the operators were seen after
the conference adjourned, and the concen-
sus of their opinion is now every man
for himself"
The southern Illinois operators say they
will go home and try and effect settle
| ment with their own men on the best
| terms they can secure, They are angry at
the northern operators, and President
Ridgely in particular, and say if it had not
been for Ridgely the entire matter would
have been settled. State President Craw-
ford and National President Mcbride, OF
the Miners Federation, say they can make
no statement as to what will now be done
| They said they would not like to be re
sponsible for any future actions of the
men. They were out to stay if it stopped
every engine in the United States and
every cook stove in the land. They had
offered a flag of truce and done all in theil
power, they said, toward effecting a set
tlement, and had been repulsed. The
whole matter was with the operators, and
they were u blame for all future pro
ceedings. . ..-..... .... ..
