Philadelphia, March IA. - The con-
ference between the subcommittee OF
the anthracite mine workers and the
operators to arrange new agreement
to go into effect at the expiration OF
the present working arrangement
came to an end late yesterday after
noon without result. While the pros
poets are not as bright as they were

the miners of the three anthracite
districts to be held In one Of the min

will follow another conference with
the operators before March 81. The

The miners leader. before yester-

Of America. II also, he said, must be
signed by the miners as officers of the
union, and not as representatives Of
the anthracite mine workers. II tho
miners support him in his attitude, It
looks as II there will be no agree
ment. as the operators since 1900
have been unalterably opposed to rec

There is possibility Of the men

ment and striking at the various col
lieries as grievances come up. IL they
are not adjusted by the superintcnd-
ents Of these mines. This. II Is point
