the mine operators III the region.
What the outcoIne of the convention
will be * all Il matter of speculation
anu the opInions expressed by labof
leaders are widely divergt Mt.
The delegates to the convention have
all sorts Of instructions from their To-
cal unions on the proposition of the
operators. Ii is learned that most of
ineIu Ill vote to reject the 10 per cent.
increase unless the operators make
furt her concessions. Many of th.-
miners will not favor the advance un-
- the operators give a guarantee
hat the Increases will be kept in force
or a fixed length OF time, others want
he union recognized before they will
accept the proposition. while not n
few insist upon concessions in the
other grievances.
The belief is general that in the ab-
sence of any uniform instructions
among the delegates. the chances of n
settlement 10y this convention are
rather slight. 1t Is. the impression of
several labor leaders that at least a
second convention will have to be hell
before any definite action viii be "a

of the contest.
