ordered the picket appeared in force

Mine Operators Charge the Strikers with
Playing In Bad Faith.
Bay City, Mich, July S.-Mining op-
orators of Michigan met in this city
yesterday afternoon and presented an
ultimatum to the miners, notifying
them through President Williams that
the propositions submitted at the re-
cent meeting in Saginaw must be ac-
cepted by July II, or they would be
withdrawn. At the Saginaw meeting
the operators and miners committees
agreed upon scale which was to be
submitted to the local unions.
The operators say they supposed
this scale was to be voted on at once,
but instead the miners deferred action
until July 20-after the national con-
vention. This, the operators declare,
is bad faith on the part of the miners,
and they want action before that date.
A letter embodying their ultimatum
