NEW YORK, April 10.-There was
a sharp and general decline in stocks

is usually the rule, in market such
as has lately existed on the stock
possibly over stimulated incomes
from series of disappointing news
announcements, none of them very
disquieting in itself, but their influ-
ence being cumulative. Nobody seem
ed concerned about the rise in call
money and yesterdays low condition
estimate was easily enough explained
away.
When, however, today's budget of

fluke at the Illinois primaries and

the first decline since last December
it was wholly natural that the STOCK
market should recede.
The stock market opened weak with
some declines of / to 2A points on
the first transactions, this being fol-
lowed by a further fall of point or
more in active stocks Around midday
the market was rather aggressively
supported and considerable part of
the early losses are recovered, but
in the final hour the downward move
ment was resumed and the lowest
prices of the day We're reached, At
no time was the market demoralized.
The reaction was conducted in an
orderly fashion and some of the
active stocks were bid up sharply
from the lowest, just before the
markets close.

REAL STRIKE MAY
COME IN MINES
Conference Between Minors and
Operators is Resumed at
Noon Today

SoHieFSHCS 6etWeeH MihcFS ana
Operators is Resumed at
Noon Today.
United Press Leased Wire Service
PHILADELPHIA, April 10-When
the joint conference of the operators
committee and the anthracite miners
reopened at noon today it was the
general impression that several meet
ings would be necessary before a set
Element is reached Both sides went
into the meeting outwardly uncom-
promising, but it was reported that
the operators and miners had agreed
te' compromise on ten per cent wage
| increase. Any settlement must be
submitted to the rank and file of the
miners for approval.
/ Whether an early resumption of
work in the anthracite fields, suspen-
sion in which since April 1, has al
ready resulted in heavy financial
loss, may be expected depended, it
vas said, on the recognition of the
union issue. President White, of the
miners, stated that without recogni-
ton of the union the ten per cent wage
increase would not result in settle
ment. He declared that unless all OF
the original demands of the men were
granted there was likely to be real
strike. The operators came to the
conference direct from meeting in
New York which is said to have de-
cided against recognition President
Baer spokesman of the operators, is
known to be nnqualifiedly opposed to
recognizing the United Miners. 1t
was this position, in the face of the
known tendency of some of the own
ers to unbend, that led to report
that Baer would resign from the com
mittee. His closest friends today de-
MED this report.
In the conference today, President
White pointed out that the meeting
virtually recognized the union. He
argued that the recognition should be
made real and formal as in the case of
the bituminous miners who were re-
Gently granted five per cent wage in
crease and who have long enjoyed
recognition.
Despite the avowed antagcnism of
this issue, the conferees were optimis-
tic about an agreement being reached
soon President White said he look
eG for an early settlement. The other
side knew the mems power now, he
said, because the suspension order is
sued April /, had completely tied UP
the mines.
John Mitchell, who conducted the
last strike, is expected to arrive to-
night for a conference with White.
The miners say there is no signif-
canoe in Mitchell's visit aside from his
advisory capacity He is known to
have the respect of the operators and
his coming encouraged the miners.
