Operators and Miners Fail TO
Reach Agreement

Philadelphia, March 13.-The con.
ference between the subcommittee OF
the anthracite mine workers and ope.
rators to arrange a new agreement to
go into effect at the expiration of the
present working arrangement came to
an end without result. While the
prospects are not as bright as they
We're for a peaceful settlement, there
is still hope that radical action by
either side will be avoided. The ey-
ecutive boards will issue a call for a
convention of the miners of the three
anthracite districts to be held in one
of the mining towns for the purpose
of considering plans for further action
and then will follow another confer
ence with the operators before March
81. The counter proposition of the
mining companies to eneW the present
agreement for another term of three
years will be placed before the ON
vention by the executive boards of
the workmen. National President

meeting that the suggestion for an.

COSTLY FIRE AT STANLEY
Property Valued at Thirty Thousand

$500.
The fire started in the furniture
store of Mark Miller and spread rapid
ly. The fire department was imme-
diately called out, and the boys did
heroic work. 1t was due largely to
their efforts that the main business
portion Of the town was saved. The
fire boys worked like Troians. Ed
Schulenberg, the new county commits
sioner, States Attorney Miller, John
Borden OF Minot and many others did
heroic work.
The destroyed buildings will be i'm.
