q PITTSBURGH, April 2l.-Dlstrict
President Patrick Dolan and Secretary
William Warner. OF the miners organi-
cation, had an important conference
with President W. p. De Arinit, OF the
New York and Cleveland Gas Coal Com
pany. The recognized price for digging
coal IN this district Is 10 cents ton, al
though there are a number OF operators
who are having coal mined at less fig-
ures. Included among the latter Is the
New York and Cleveland Company. The
lsaders contended that II Mr.. De Armlt
pays the price the others VIII follow,
while he claims to have assisted In every
wny to bring about a uniform condition
OF affairs.
During the conference the condition OF
AFFAIRS were carefully discussed. Mr..
De ArmIt explaining that he could not
pay the rate fixed and hold his trade, as
his competitors are having coal mined
at a lower rate. The discussion on the
subject continued for an hour. when It
was decided to meet again on Thursday
President Dolan, In speaking Of the
conference to a reporter for the Chronl-
Gle Telegraph. said: "Mr. De Armlt is
only paying "a cents for mining; while at
the majority Of the mines 70 cents Is be-
ing paid. The Pittsburgh and Chicago
Gas Coal Company and the first pool
mines Of F. L. Robbins are paying go
cents, and they have contract With the
tllggers. They agree, however, to waive
the contract and pay 20 cents " the New
York and Cleveland does. We have an
unwritten contract between Mr.. De Ar
nit, the miners officials and operators.
that, In my opinion, should be carried
out. The committee OF ten has agreed
TO reimburse the New York and Cleve-
land Company for any losses they may
sustain by paying the 7O-cent rate. We
viii resort to all fair means to bring
the price up to that figure, and II we DO
not succeed there Is nothing else to do
hut TO meet the mining rate paid at the
pits OF the New York and Cleveland Gas
coal Company. Under the contract this
company has with It's men the price for
digging shall be 10 cents n ton less than
Il paid for pick mining at any pit In the
district. II the price cannot be ad-
Vanced, the only way to bring about uni-
fOrmlty Is TO keep dropping the rate so
often ns that company lowers the pay OF
the men. am still hoping that It will
not be necessary to resort 10 this plan,
as the miners are not receiving more
than living wages now"
The plan proposed by Mr.. Dolnn was
suggested by National Secretary Pat
rick McBryde at the December join com
yentIon. He said It would be q hardship
for the diEFers for u time, but after uht-
formity had been established 1t would
not be difiicult matter to advance
