MUTUAL DISTRUST'
Carroll D. Wright Says It Is the
Cause Of the Coal Region
Troubles.
He Suggests a New Miners Union
p g and a Board of Con-
Citation.

Washington, Sept. A. The re-
port Of Carroll D. Wright, the
commissioner Of labor, who was desig-
mated by the president last June to in
the coal strike, has aroused great in
terest. ..~
Mr.. Wright says that the demands of
the miners as given him by John Mitchell
in writing are as follows:
irst-An increase of 20 per cent to the miners
paid by the tonz-that is, for men performing
of all the miners.
.second-A reduction of 20 per cent in the time
of per diem employees. The mines are opera ted
about 200 days per year, ten hours per day. This
demand, if .grantedSawould result in reducing the
day to eight. hours GO per cent?, so that the
same pay; hence an equivalent of 20 per cent
increase In the earnings. no increase in the rates

ton which payment is based for all coal mined
apply in any district where weighing coal would
be practicable, and to those miners who are paid
by the quantity and not to those paid by the day
These demands having been rejected
the miners agreed to accept one-half-
that is to say, 10 per cent increase in the
manner, and 10 per cent decrease in the
working day. They also offered to leave
| the whole matter to arbitration and in
vestigation and accept the result. Thi!
also was refused. Mr.. Wright says:
| Nearly all of the operators have confidence
| in the ability of the miners union to control it
| own members.
Some of the operators do not hesitate to say
and it is believed that this statement is favorabl
| regarded by some of the union off1cers-that n
| great progress will be made towards more peace
full condition in the mining regions until the an
| thraacite miners have union of their oWn no
| complicated with that of the bituminous Goa
| miners.
| All the operators whom met disclaimed dis
tinctly that they had any antagonism to labo
| unions as such. They do object, and most seri
| ousy to some of the methods adopted by tn
unions, and they feel that when asked to max
contracts with the unions the latter should pu
themselves in position to be pecuniarily respon
| sible for carrying out such contracts.
Mr. Wright cites evidence to show tina
there is no confidence existing between
| the employees and their employers. ant
