Operators Refuse to Negotiate
Until the Shooters Bill Is
Withdrawn
is ACCOMPLISHED
Apparently No Chance for Peace
Agreement in the Near Future in the
Bituminous Resion-sub Committee
Which Has Been WransIing Owe. the
Scale Adjourns.

indianapolis, Ind. Feb. 5.-The breai
winch mas been impending between thf
Eltuninous operators and miners cam,
yesterday. The subcommittee which
has been wranging over the scale 70.
nearly week adjourned yesterday
afternoon as far from. an agreement as
ever. The split came over the shooters
bill now pending in The Indiana legisla-
ture. The Indiana operators too a
determined stand that. until this bill Is
withdrawn, all negotiations for the
scale must cease.
Unless the miners decide to adopt 4
| different course in a general convention
called for today, peace in the soft-coal
| fields seems to be a very distant eventu-
atty.
a member of the committee admitted
| last night that nothing had been accom-
| plished and the committee would so re-
port in the convention.
The shooters bill. which saddles onto
the Indiana operators the expense and
responsibility of hiring shooters to do
all of the blasting in the Indiana mines.
doomed up yesterday morning as the
greatest obstacle in the way of wage
agreement to regulate the coal mines OF
Pennsylvania.
The deliberations in the sub-scale
committee meetings reached point
last night where the Indiana operators
blocked the way until the shooters bill
should be withdrawn or the miners en-
ployed in Indiana SHOULD make an al
lowance to cover the cost of the shoot
ers.
At 1880 the operators gave their I'LL
timatum that they were thru, and the
miners would have to withdraw the
Objectionable legislation or block the
agreement. The miners at once went
into executive session. AT the same time
the Ohio operators notified the miners
that they would not agree to a run of
mine basis, and that they would rathe.
have no scale than adopt a basis that
has given trouble IN Illinois, and from
which the Illinois operators want to get
away.
The Pennsylvania operators also de-
clared against the run of mine. and the
miners on lHe committee Sussesleu eiidl
they had better go into general conven-
ton again. An opera; or said at the adj
journment of the scale committee:
''rl1c situation is critical one. but !
still believe that the miners will listen
to reason and accept a 10 per cent adj
vance. and abandon all the other de-
mands of their scale. We are ready to
concede this advance. but we want
higher differential, and will be satisfied
with the scale we are now operating
under on that point. But the run of
mine and the cents differential be-
tween pick and machine mined coal are
out of the question, and will never be
concede. The call for general con-
ference tomorrow means that we are
where we We're when we be-
gan last Thursday"

Hair Pullinu Cause for Divorce.

Davenport, Feb. 5.-The charges in a
suit for divorce commenced by Mrs.
Emma Fryer against her husband, JOS
eph Fryer, are that he had at times a
penchant for pulling out quantities of
her hair, and that he has amused him
self at other times by knocking out
numbers of her teeth. She believes from
these specifications and also from the
statement that on one occasion her hus-
band struck her and knocked her down,
that he is guilty of cruel and inhuman
treatment, and that she is entitled to all
the relief the court can give her, and
that is what she asked for.

had gotten pretty low in the kitchen
stove and l.. Wetzel, who resides with
the Kruger family. poured oil from the
oil can on the fire. when the can ig-
nited and exploded in his hand burn
ing his hands and singeing eyebrows,

explosion threw Mrs. Kruger and baby
ms arms out of the next room window.
The fire was quickly eXtinguished
Considerable complaint has been made
on the oil recently and numerous lamp

rigid inspection should be made and
better protection given to life and
property.
