continued hardening in the price of
cotton, business on the cloth market
at the week end was firmer and more
active. The total of the weeks bust
ness was fair. Miscellaneous demands
were steady and principally from In
dia, although the offers were difficult
to negotiate. The China inquiry was
meager but some of the lesser outlets
purchased more freely. South Africa
bought moderately.
The firmness in the price of yarns
acts as a check on business. There
was some miscellaneous inquiry. Pur-
chases were mostly for immediate re-
quirements.

COULD NOT REACH
AN AGREEMENT
Coal Strike Matters Must Be
Settled by the Com

(By Associated loress.)

WASHINGTON, November 25.-All
prospects for an understanding between
the United Mine Workers and the coal
operators, outside the anthracite coal
strike commission, came to a sudden ter.
minadon late this afternoon through the
receipt Of dispatch to Wayne Mac
Veag, representing the Pennsylvania
Coal Company and the Hillside Coal aid
Iron Company. notifying him that at
meeting Of the anthracite coal road men
in New York to-day it had been de-
cided not to grant an interview to Mr.
Mitchell and his associates which had
been suggested for Friday next
The announcement, coming as it did
after an all-days conference in this city
between Mr.. MacVeagh and Mr.. Mitchell
and his associates, attended part of the
time by Carroll D. Wright. in an en-
deavor to adjust some details of the pro-
posed agreement between the operators
and the miners, completely surprised
everyone here.
From statements made by Clarence S.
Darrow early in the day the impression
had spread that a complete agreement
would be affected at to-day's conference.
but when the meeting broke up Mr..
Darrow read to the newspaper men in
the corridor outside of his room in VIII.
lard's Hotel a statement which made it
clear that no final agreement had been
reached and that no further confer
ence were likely.
The statement was as follows:
THE conference today was simply
continuation of the conferences held at
Scranton and with precisely the same
object-that of trying to reach a basis!
of hopeful discussion for an amicaole
settlement-A1r. MacVea 9Th has not been
in Scranton since Thursday, and some
matters developed as to whether a fur
ther conference might be useful before
either the operat tors or the representa-
tives of the miners approach the serious
task of formulating definite agreement
for their signatures. =
