NO AGREEMENT REACHED.
Miners and Operators Fail to Reach
an Understanding at the Con-
ference at Coal Creek.

Knoxville, Tenn, July 2S.-The coal
miners and operators are still in con-
ference at Coal Creek without having
reached any agreement as to the next
years wage scale. 1t is authoritative
ly stated that the miners have made
demand for an increase of 10 per
cent, but the operators so far have
made no reply as to what amount, if
any, will be granted. The indications
are that some result will soon be
reached.
Out of the large number of mines in
the Coal Creek district only one is
represented by an operator. All the
operators here who failed to attend
the first meeting were notified to be
here, but none responded.
