HELL
ACCEPTED

Iession, which lasted hours and Is
minutes. There was come opposition
manifested in the rceeting against
certain features CT the plan, but after
a full discussion of the Objectionable
parts a unanimous vote was taken to
recommend to the convention on the
acceptance Of the proposition. AS the
conference was held behind closed
doors and a bond of secrecy was
placed on every man present, the
specific objections were not officially
announced. These are the same ex-
ecutive boards which, on May s last,
ordered the strike to begin, which &C.
ton was approved. in the face Of Mr..
Mitchelps opposition. by the Halle
ton convention a few days later. 1t
Is expected that some objection will
be raised on the floor OF the conven-
ton but the officers Of the union are
confident that opposition will disap-
pear when President Mitchell ex-
plains all the features OF the modified
proposition to the delegates.
A question was raised yesterday as
to whether Commissioner Wright, who
VIII be the recorder 81 tie c5mmIs-
sion. shall have the right to vote In
case the six other members OF the
board are equally divided on any
question in connection with settle
ment. Mr.. Mitcheh, when asked, did
not appear to be sure that he had not.
and other officials Of the union were
also uncertain of Mr.. Wright's status.
The matter CT the term Of years that
the agreement shall. be in force was
also a source of much inquiry. The
union was strongly opposed to the
operators fixing the term OF years.
| Cne district president said this fea-
ture had been left to the discretion
OF the commission, as suggested in
Mr.. MitchelPs proposition, while other
officials did not know anything about
1t. President Mitchell, for some rea
son, did not care to discuss any fea
I ture of the arbitration agreement
while the matter was still in the
hands OF the miners.
May All Resume by Thursday.
If the plans of the strike leaders
are not disarranged a general resump.
ton of mining will take place about
next Thursday. 1t is expected the
convention will last two days and that
there will be an interval of one day
from the time the convention adjourns
until the time set for the men to go
back to the mines. If the convention
should be in session on Wednesday,
it is probable that resumption would
not take place until Friday. There
will not be much work at first for all
the strikers. as it is the intention of
the companies not to dismiss the non
union men who have stood by them

during the strife. The organization
will take care Of such other men as
are unable TO Immediately find work.
1t is estimated that all the strikers
will not find work until two or three
months have elapsed. This is due TO
the condition Of the mines. Some Of
them are wholly or partially flooded
and others need repairs.
It was lively day around strike
headquarters. From early morning
until after the announcement was
made that a convention would be
called a crowd was congTegated at
the place Dir. Mitchell spent an ex-
tremely busy day. II the morning he
had many callers. who congratulated
him, and n the afternoon he was en-
gagged with the three district boards
kilograms CT congratulation from all
parts Ct the country came TO the lead
ers CT the miners during the day.
