Pittsburg, Pa, July 2S.-Eighty-nine
coal companies and mines in the Pitts
burg district were represented at the
coal operators uniformity" meeting
here Tuesday. The operators who
ship by river and those owning mines
in the Westmoreland field were not
present The river operators held a
meeting at the coal exchange in the at
ternoon and decided to take no part in
the uniformity" movement. Very
little was accomplished at the two ses-
sions. The old uniformity" agree
ment with some new clauses inserted
was reported by committee and the
meeting today will take up the agree
ment by clauses for discussion. Other
changes in conditions since 1896 war
rant different provisions. Committees
will be appointed to draw up clauses
that will cover the points at issue.
The only sensational incident in
Tuesdays sessions occurred when Col.
w. +. llend presented a minority re-
port ON the "unitofmity" agreement,
denourcing the procedure Of
the meeting in severe terms
and boiling the conference.
When he got to the meeting he
learned that the strike would not be
taken into consideration or discussed
in connection with uniformity" In
the evening Gen. Little and others
called on Rend at his hotel and asked
that he reconsider his action and en-
ter the conference again to insure the
success of the meeting. He replied
that he would cordially endorse and
cooperate in any plan the conference
might agree upon if so per cent. of
the district operators would give their
consent to the same. He believes it
is impossible to secure 81 per cent.

and is willing to do as SO per cent Of
the operators wish The entire pro-
ceedings of Tuesday were unsatisfac-
tory and it is difficult to see how the
strike is to be settled under the pres
ent plan of procedure. The general
situation throughout the striking dis
tricts is unchanged.
