THE OHIO MINERS.
They Decided to Make Permanent the
One Per Cent. Assessment.

Columbus, o., Jan. 16.-The Ohio
miners convention Friday decided to
make permanent the enc per cent. as
sessments on earnings of miners for
a relief or defense fund. Fifteen thou
sand dollars is to be kept available at
all times for immediate needs.
The initiation fee for inexperienced
men was raised to $40 with a view to
the checking of the influx Of foreign
ers to the mines OF Ohio.
The convention refused to concur IL
a resolution presented by the Colum
bus Trades and Labor Assembly con
demning the coal carrying and coal
producing combinations of the state.
President Haskins advised the miners
to keep out of the controversy, as {
fight for cheaper coal did not mean
less profits for mining companies or
railroads, but cheaper wages for min
ers.
Before adjourning Friday evening
the convention adopted the report Of
the scale committee, but it will not be
made public until presented to the ma
tiOnal convention at indianapolis. Ac-
ton on the scale question was taken
in secret session. 1t is understood the
present prices for mining are reafiirm-
ed and the delegates to the national
convention instructed to oppose any
reduction. The Ohio delegates leave
Saturday for Indianapolis.
AS a result of overproduction Of
Ohio coal, operators have reduced the
price of coal at the mines from 10 to
25 cents per ton within the last week.
The prevailing price for lump coal al
the mines now is $3.50 per ton. Some
CT the large operators who have been
selling only to the steam trade say
they are now in a position to compete
for domestic trade, but deny that any
war in prices is being waged against
the smaller operators

The Convention Promises to Be

After a Session of Ten Days the Work.

sion With the Operators of She
Central Competitive Field.

promises to be a most interesting con-
vention Of the United Mine Workers
Of America convened in this city Mon
day. The thing that makes the out
look for the convention more interest.
ing than ordinarily is the fact that
within the last two months there has
been apparently precOncerted move
on the part Of several of the operators
to cut wages at the rate of ten cents a
ton. A conflict between operators and
miners seems probable
The convention opened at 10 o'clock
Monday morning in Tomlinson hall
with about 1000 delegates from all
parts of the country According to the
bylaws of the United Mine Workers
there will be one vote for 100 men,
delegate shall have more than five
votes. The convention Of the miners
will remain in session for ten days,
and then the miners will enter into
joint convention with the operators Of
the central competitive field There
will be about 800 of these operators
present, representing Western Penn
sylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois.
This joint conference is for the pur-,
pose of arranging a wage scale for the
miners OF the central competitive
fields. It will probably last about ten
days
The first thing on the program Mon
day morning was the address of well
come by Mayor Hoffman, to which
President John Mitchell responded
The response to the address of vel
come will be followed by the report of
the committee en- credentials and the
annual address of President Mitchell.
Then will come William B. Wilson, the
auditing committee and the tellers,
who will announce the result Of the
vote for executive officers. 1t is I'M
derstood, however, that there has been
no opposition to the present officers,
and it is thought that their reelection
is assured.
The address of President Mitchell
and the annual reports of Vice Presi-
dent Lewis and Secretary Wilson may
not be reached before Tuesday morn
ing. President Mitchell said Monday
morning he thought that would be the
case.
: There are in the United States 450,-

aow $4,000 on strike. Ten thousand Of
these are in the west, 5000 in the Mey-

one place the boat swcrved to one side,
raking the heads of the persons in the

farther forward to escape striking their
heads. This lowered one end of the
boat. and the water began to flow in
