ers the miners refused to 20 10 work to-
day, and the mines are idle. although the
miners convention had decided that the
men should work under the scale which
expired September 1 until new one was
made There was either a lack OF control
OF the men by the officers OF the union or
they failed to get word in intelligent shape
President Richards spent all day in the
telegraph office trying to straighten out
the trouble and get the men to work again
When the conference Of the Scale Com
r1ittee began again in Kansas City this
morning II was not known that in many
mines u +. men had struck OF their own
volition because. after fifty meetings in
Kansas City, no wage scale had been
formulated.
The first thing disclosed to-day was that
