COAL OPERATORS AND

Illinois Conference at Springfield Like

Agreement.

Springfield, ILL.,, July Claiming
that certain features embraced in
new set of propositions advanced by
the Illinois coal operators executive
board to the executive board of the
United Mine Workers of Illinois, in
joint conference here, are perversion
of the intentions of the shot firers' law
and amount to a virtual substitute
therefor. the indications are that the
two organizations will not be able to
get together and that the conference
will be broken up without reaching an
agreement. 1t is asserted that defini-
tions of the duties of shot firers are at
a complete variance with the letter of
the law and impose on them labor not
contemplated The operators claim,
however that while the law is not spe-
cifiC. its scope is general enough TO
embrace all requirements in the agree
meDt they have drafted. Judge Gray's
decision is now before the joint boards.
IL, however. is sealed and neither OF
the disputants knows its contents. In

agree on wage scale. Judge Gray s
