Looks Like Legislative Hall.

The joint committee of the Wyo-

United Mine Workers continued its
session this morning at Trades Assem-

Like Legislative Assembly.
The hall where this committee meets
resembles a state legislative assembly.
There are numerous packages of pa
pers resembling bills. In reality, how
ever, they are scales of wages of all
kinds, divided into various sections
and intended to meet the enormous
variations of conditions under which
coal Is mined in the state of Wyoming.
In the membership of the committee
sitting as the representatives Of the
Mine Workers are Japanese and Chi
nese and twelve other nationalities.
The task of framing an agreement that
will be satisfactory to the membership
of the union is rendered the more diff
ficult because Of the fact that at Rock
Springs mines, for instance, ~sixty-eight
different languages and dialects are
spoken, and almost every n of these
is found within the ranks of the organ
ization.
Will Reach Agreement.
The press committee announced
that while the task is arduous and ap-
parently slow, ultimately an amicable
agreement will be reached, and there
is a continuously decreasing probable.
