made, after which ii. is most likely

FAVOR MORE
ARBITRATION
Proposal Out of the West from
Mine Operators BituminOuS
Men Peace PIen.

NEW YORK. April Interest in
the labor troubles in the anthracite re-
gions is overshadowed by the PROPOSE
ton that came out of the west for the
arbitration of the differences existing
between the soft coal operators who
have not yet agreed TO the 1905 scale
and their miners.
The offer of the soft coal operators is
identical. word for word, except where
the term bituminous is substituted for
anthracite, with the one President
Mitchell presented TO the hard coal op-
orators here. The receipt of the propo-
sition caused quite II stir, Il there
was considerable speculation as TO how
the miners leader would receive his
own arbitration plan for another field.
He was much interested in the news,
but maintained his usual silence when
asked what he would do.
Within an hour of the receipt OF the
offer from j. II. Winder. the head of
the Ohio soft coal operators, he sent Il
reply TO the effect that he had no pow
CT to act OH the proposition, but would
submit ii to the International executive
board of the union at its meeting i'll
Indianapolis week after next. Mr..
Mitchell was asked what he thought of
Mr.. Winder's literary ability. and he
iokingly replied that he admired it
very much"
Leaders of the miners union who
were at headquarters did not think the
{pt,,nn tfo,ol nyarpfiN~a hazard wn1If
favor the proposition. A member of
the board said that conditions in the
soft coal regions are much different
from those in the anthracite fields. lie
pointed III that many operators had
already signed the 1903 scale and h a
the number is increasing each day.
Peace is now assured in the miners
situation so far as the soft coal fields
Of western Pennsylvania are concern
ed. The organization of the independ-
ent operators who were holding out
against. granting the advance demand
ed by the miners decided at Il meeting
last night to give up the struggle and
sign the miners wage scale of 1903.
Nothing developed in the anthracite
situation to clearly indicate what the
outcome of next Mondays meeting be
tween the subcommittee of the mine
owners and the union leaders will be.
1t was reported that the arbitration
offer of the miners would be fatty re
fused, but it was denied by those in
authority that Il final decision had been
arrived at. 1t was also reported that
the operators may accept arbitration,
but with a different sort of Il tribunal.
President Mitchell said his side has
nothing to do now but wait for the OPP
orators answer. 1t has practically
been settled that if the operators re-
fuse the arbitration offer Il call will go
out at once for a convention.
President Roosevelt has received a
telegram from John II. Winder at Co
lumbus, president of the bituminouS
operators of Ohio. a duplicate of which
was sent TO President Mitchell of the
miners union, proposing arbitration.
At the White House it was stated that
the telegram was sent to the president
for his information: that no reply is
expected and none will be sent.
