Talk With Mitchell.

President Mitchell said tonight of
the result of the convention:
The action of the delegates in ac-
cepting an advance of 10 per cent pro
vided they receive assurance that the
advance will continue in force until
April 1, next year demonstrates that
the miners are considerable of the pub
lie interests involved and are dispos-
ed to be conciliatory, and let the mine
owners refuse to join hands with the
miners in bringing the strike to a
close.
The responsibility of the suffering
that will entail on the poor in the large
eastern cities will rest entirely with
the operators. The operators. have
now an opportunity to prove that the
proposition offered by them was made
In good faith. If they are willing to
pay 10 per cent advance they certain

END IS IN SIGHT
COAL MINERS WILL ACCEPT OF.
FER OF OPERATORS
CONDlTIONALLY.
Demand That the Sliding Scale Be
Abolished and That the 10 Per
Cent Increases Cover a Definite
Period-President Mitchell Ex-
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. of Convention.

Scranton, Pa, Oct. 13.-The conven-
ton of striking coal miners today
agreed upon a conditional acceptance
of the operators offer of a 10 per cent
increase in wages. While this action
will not end the strike at once ii
greatly clears the situation and opens
the way for peace by representing to
the operators a definite proposition
from the miners Offering terms con
siderably better than the ~latter's orig
inal demands. The agreement reach
ed was practically unanimous n was
accompanied with a recommendation
that the men stay ont until the opera
tors accept their form of settlement.
The peace conditions are embodic
in the following report of the commit
tee on resolutions, which was adopted
by the convention
Whereas, The anthracite coal OPP
orators have posted notices offering
an advance of 10 per cen over the
wages formerly paid, and have sig
nitied their Willingness to adjust the
grievances of their employees. and
Whereas. They have failed to
specify the length of time this ad-
vance would remain in force, and have
failed to abolish the sliding scale
method of determining wages, we
would recommend:
That this convention accept an adj
vance of 10 per cent, providing the OPP
orators will continue its payment I'M
til April |. 1901. and will abolish the
sliding scale in the Lehigh and Schuy-
kill regions, the scale of wage in the
two last named districts to remain
stationary at 10 per cent above the
present basis of price, and hat the
companies will agree to adjust other
grievances complained of with the
committees of their own employees.
Should this proposition be unac
ceptable to the operators, we recon-
mend that the convention propose
that all questions at issue be submit
ted to a fair and impartial board of
arbitration.
I'VE would rather recommend that
under no circumstances whatever,
should there be n resumption of work
at any of the collieries until the OPP
orators signify their acceptance of this
proposition, and you are notified Off
cially that the strike is ended, and all
return to work in a body on the same
day"
