Kansas City, Mo-, July 22.-The
mine operators Of district rs Satur-
day afternoon yielded to the demands
of the miners for an increase of wages
in certain of the sub-districts of Mis-
souri, and the most serious points of
disagreement were thereby overcome.
The agreements reached conclude the
scale of wages for the entire state of
Missouri, excluding Barton, Bates and
Vernon counties and extending to
Leavenworth, Kan. The question of
u day wage scale for the engineers,
tiremen and blacksmiths employed
about the mines still remains to be
disposed of. There is still on this
point difference, but it is believed
that an amicable adjustment will be
reached.
