 New York, Dec Exchanged with the task of effecting a scheme of plan and scope, the general committee ap- pointed yesterday at the labor and capital conference met to-day in pri- yate conference to take up the work. Among those in attendance were Os- car Strauss, Charles N. Schwab. $. k. Galloway, Charles A. Moore. Cornelius N. Bliss, Lewis Nixon, T. J. McCook, R. NJ. Easley, Samuel Gompers. John Mitchell, Frank Sargent and James Duncan. It was announced that a committee on plan and scope upon which Senator Hanna, Archbishop Ire land, Bishop Potter and Messrs Com pers, Nixon, Mitchell, Galloway, Sar- gent, Bliss, SchWab and Strauss had been named would present prelimi- nary report during the day, but all in- formation as to the nature of the re- port was withheld pending it's consid- nrai-inn IF G ct nh e ba H been 9 divergence of views, that the problem was an enormous one, that many of those working for a solution of the question have taken it up in practical way since the conference be- gan, and that the committee must give time and study to it's work before giving any report to the public.
 Before the meeting was opened to- day Chairman Strauss made q brief statement for publication. 1T cannot tell you anything about the plan for putting into practice the peaceful pro- jects of this confeernce," he said. We are at work on it and in due time it will be made public. I believe every man named on the committee will serve. All of the labor leaders have accepted an6. in this epoch mak- ing union of labor and capital no man call u6ily HIS SGIflceS lO d pEOJecL IulL means such q great good for his coln- try. The approval of the labor lead CTS means the cooperation of more than 2,O0O,OOO organized workers. As we progress in this work 1t becomes more apparent that the chief cause of trouble in the past 1las risen from mis- understanding. Never were truer words spoken than by John Mitchell yesterday when he, who has seen more strikes than any man of his age in the country, said that there never was a strike which could not have been averted if the opposing interests had first met and fairly considered their respective rights"
