MINERS AccEPr REpucrIoN.
John Mitchell, However, Believes 1t Is
Unjust,

Philadelphia, July 0-Shortly before
noon yesterday at a meeting between
officers Of the Pennsylvania Soft Coal
Miners union and the mine operators
the miners agreed to consent to a redue.
ton IN wages What this reduction is
% be has not been decided upon. John
Mitchell, the miners leader, reached here
yesterday afternoon to take part in the
adjustment Mr. Mitchell said he could
see no justice in the demands Of the
operators Of the bitumnous mines In
Pennsylvania that the miners agree to d
reduction Ia wages from GO cents to 50
cents per ton for mining coal He said
that he spoke only from a cursory ex-
animation Of the reasons advanced by
the operators, but that he could see no
reason for a request for modification
Of The wage scale while a contract was
ia force
"The claim that the operators cannot
afford TO pay sixty-six cents because Of
competition with the operators Of West
Virginia, whose miners are working for
from forty to fifty cents, does not seem
to me just" said Mr. Mitchell "sincs
the miners themselves would certainly
not be given an advance in wages If the
conditions were reversed and the West
Virginia operators were paying higher
wages than the operators in Pennsyl-
vania. The miners here, if they had
contract, would not be justified in asking
for an increase The anthracite strike
furnished a good example Of this. The
fact that no anthracite WAS being mined
made the price Of soft coal 90 eonsid-
erably higher than II had been, and yet
the soft coal miners were not given
more money for mining coal on account
Of this. No; cotract is contract,
and both parties to On agreement should
observe its conditions while It Is IN
force"
