MINERS MAKE
NEW DEMANDS
Eight.HOur Day for Engineers, Fire.
men and Pumpmen.
LOOKING TO A NATIONAL STRIKE.
The Executive Committee Of the United
Mineworkers Decides Not to Call Out
the Engineers, Plremeu and Pumpmen at
Present. But They May Be Called Out
After June 2

Wilkesbarre, Pa, (SpeciaD The
three anthracite executive committees OF
the United Mine Workers of America
at their joint meeting here, decided tc
permit the engineers, iremen and pump
men to remain at work, provided the coal
companies grant them an eight-hour day
at present wages. If these demands are
not granted by June the men shall then
suspend work,
Although the instructions issued to the
local unions do not specifically say that
the men shall cease work on that date It
the demand is not granted, they are SO
construed by the committeeman. This
action was taken after two sessions had
been held, which consumed the entire
day,
At present the engineers, fremen and
pump men work 10 hours day. Some
of the firemen work IL.
The action of the committees is not
as drastic as was looked for. Under the
instructions issued the protectors OF the
mines, if granted the concessions, can
remain at work no matter how long the
strike of the mine workers shall last
Some of the radical committeeman want
ed them called out, and kept out until all
the mine workers were satisfied, but the
conservative element was in the majority
AS some of the coal companies have
declared that they will fill the places OF
this class of employees at any cost, if thcy
are called out on strike. the prospects of 2
continuance Of the present peaceful con-
dition throughout the coal region are moi
bright.
