DEADLOCK IN CONFERENCE.
Iowa Miaers ana Operators Fail I,
Agree.

Des Moines, March 1.--After a two
days session the operators and miners
are no nearer a settlement of their DIFF
ferences than they We're before their
joint conference. AT the meeting yester-
day the miners made public their de-
mands and the operators presented a
scale of prices tn which they asked the
miners TO agree. The two scales are
very. very wide apart and the prospects
are not bright for compromise. The
offer of the operators was read at an
open meeting of the opposing factions
and ii was greeted with derision by the
miners. while the reading of the scale
demanded by the miners was received
by the operators in manner no more
encouraging for an amicable adjust
ment of the differences.
The miners demand something like a
25 per cent increase in prices, and the
operators offered to concede an adj
vance of per cent. In other words,
the miners insist upon mine run scale,
which means that they should be paid
for all coal mined before 1T is screened,
while the operators are only willing to
pay for the coal which does not go thru
the screens after it is taken from the
mines.
The two propositions We're referred tc
the scale committees representing the
two organizations Immediately after
their reading, and then followed a john
conference of the committees. Abso-
lutely nothing was accomplished al
this session, unless it was to engendei
hard feelings The miners stood like 6
solid wall for their scale and the OPP
orators We're equally obdurate. Neither
side offered concessions and when thu
meeting adjourned the breach wa:
greatly widened between the employer:
and employees.
Charles Norris, a prominent De-
Moines operator, after the adjournment
said: I'VE adjourned to meet tomorrow
but I don't believe it will be possible I,
reach an agreement. We might as vel
have adjourned for good, for the de
mands OF the miners are so unjust ans
exorbitant as to make 1t financial sui
eide for the operators to seriously con
template granting such an increase.
