MINERS AND OPERATORS.
Are Meeting in Joint Session to Avoid
A Coal Strike.

Indianapolis, Ind. March PA
joint scale committee of a joint con-
ference of coal operators and miners
in the central competitive field went
into session today There were "a
men present when called TO order in
executive session. This conference
has for it's object the arrival at an
agreement and adoption of a wage
scale.
New York, March 21.-The demand
of the Antracite miners for a read
justment of wages and conditions in
the anthracite field, would, if granted
mean a veritabie revolution in mining
conditions according to a statement
issued by the operators committee of
seven today. The statement declares
it a mistake to assume an eight hour
day and a ten percent increase is the
sum total of the demands of the
miners.
"A new and uniform scale" says
the statement would place every
man on the same basis, increasing
the wages of some men AS much as
$50 percent and the average increase
under the uniform scale would be 80
percent for outside men. The propos-
ed schedule would mean a veritable
revolution in mining conditions.
