Columbus, O., August 20.-The Ma
tional Executive Board of the United
Mine Workers adjourned to-day after
having issued the call for the confer
ence of organized labor to be held in
St, Louis August 3Oth. The board re-
fused the proposition Of the Pittsburg
operators for a conference to arbitrate
the wage dispute in that district,
claiming that such action would be
prejudicial to the interests of the min
ers at large. The board is ready TO
consider overtures for the arbitration
of the issues of the great strike only
when these overtures come from all
the operators in the competitive dis
trict, which includes Ohio, Indiana,
Illinois. West Virginia and Pennsylva-
MIA. The board has decided not to
deyiate from the established policy un-
til the result of the st. Louis confer
ence is known. The aggressive work
in the field will be continued and the
efforts to spread the strike in the West
Virginia district will be renewed.
The success or failure Of the strike
hangs upon the st. Louis conference,
the call for which has been endorsed
by Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, and j..
R. Sovereign, General Master Work
man Of the knights of Labor. They
maintain that the fight now being
waged by the miners is one Of common
interest TO organized labor throughout
the country.
At the st. Louis conference all labor
organizations will be asked 10 join
issues with the miners. The failure to
secure a general suspension in West
virginia Las greatly interfered with
the prospects Of success, as the coal
supplied from that and the few isolated
districts is meeting the limited de-
mand. The only hope of cutting off
this supply appears to lie in the refusal
of organized labor in the ordinary
channels of traffic and business to
handle or use this coal. If the object
of the st. Louis conference is accom-
plished the strike will be extended to
nearly every branch Of labor in the
country.
