47,000 MINERS MAY RETURN
OHIO WORKERS ARE EXPECTED
TO GO TO WORK.
That Is Declaration of State President
Of Union-Date of Resumption
to Be April IS or IS.

Columbus, O., Apr. lit is very
probable that $4,000 miners who are
now idle in Ohio will resume work
about April Is or 16, following the con-
ference of the miners and operators at
Toledo next Tuesday, declared Will
liam Green, state president of the min
ers, Friday.
ut is very probable that the opera
tors and the miners will reach an
agreement at Toledo and that the old
wage scale that was in effect up to
April 1 will be readopted."
President Green said that the min
ers' officials and the operators have
had several conferences and that there
seems to be no hesitancy on the part
of the operators to sign the agreement.
1T will mean the renewal of the
harmonious relations existing between
the four states in the sixth district
that existed since 1898 until the break
came two years ago when the joint
interstate movement was dissolved"
All of the locals will send delegates,
and there will probably be $50 from
Ohio at the conference. A total of
500 delegates for the miners are ex-
pected from the four states. The big
question before the assembly will be
the renewal of the wage scale that ex-
pired March 81 last and the resump.
ton of the mines in this district.
