languid and business on a small scale.
Prices hung suspended about the low

New York, April 6.-Pending the con-
sideration by the anthracite operators
OF the offer OF the mine workers of Eastern
Pennsylvania to arbitrate the differences
existing between them, the coal workers
will make no move, but will simply wait
until Monday for the mine owners reply.
The operators are busily engaged on the
miners proposition While they have
practically agreed as to how they shall
meet the offer, they will not draw up
formal answer until the members of the
subcommittee have consulted all inter
csts involved. The sentiment of the sub
committee of the operators is distinctly
apainst the acceptance of the miners
offer. at least in its present shape
The scale committee of the miners held
a brief session today and took up the situa-
tion in the anthracite fields After the
meeting most of the members OF the COM
mittee returned TO their homes. where
they will meet the presidents of the local
unions in the respective districts TO re-
ceive reports Of local conditions

miners arbitration offer and will attempt

President Mitchell Of the United Mine
Workers Of America has proposed arbitra.
ton as the means of settling the dlitcf-
ences which exist between the anthracite
coal operators and miners, and oi aVerung
the threatened strike Of l65OOO miners.
The proposition came unexpectedly yes
terday at the meeting in New York oi the
subcommittee of seven. each represent
ting the operators and miners. 1t took
the operators by surprise and they asked
for an adjournment until Monday IN order
to prepare their reply.
Atchell's plan is TO refer al differences
to a Board of Arbitration composed OF the
members Of the present Board of Con
ciliation with Judge George Gray OF Della
ware OF any other person Judge Gray may
appoint. as chairman and umpire, the de-
cisiun of the board. so far as il influences
wages to be effective from April lst. 1906,
and to remain in force until March Sd, 1905
with the added qualification that the
miners are to 90 back to work as soon as
the operators accept the proposition and
remain az work pending the decision OF the
arbitration board.
The operators, through their press
agent. last night issued a statement object
ing TO the plan, reviewing the history OF
the troubles in 1902 and, while not making
any definite statement. plainly forecast
ing a refusal of the proposition. Judge
Gray refuses TO discuss the question in any
way.
Advices from three anthracite districts
Of the State are to the effect that the prop
position is disappointment both to the
operators and miners. and that the latter
believe that it will be rejected by the
operators. This feeling is particularly
| strong in Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, Shame
kin and other important points in the
region Many of the workmen declare
they will remain out Of the mines until D
final decision is reached
Judge Gray was asked by reporer o
Every Evening, today if he would
consent to head an arbitration board /
miners and operators would unite in re
questing him to. "I cannot say a wor'
about IT, he said. 81 do not know
anything about the suggestion excep
what / read in the newspapers Neithe
miners nor operators have communi
Gated with me about it, and under th
circumstances / cannot discuss the sui
ject."
