 Wilkesbarre, March 2S.-Seten large coal companies, with 125 simi- lar corporations of lesser quantity of output on one hand and about 168, 900 miners on the other, comprises the two principal elements in the anthra- cite controversy, on the eve of a dis astrous struggle now believed to be inevita bIe.
 Of the nine demands formulated by the mine workers, negotia tions for ad- justment are expected by a partial concession of one of them. This is schedule five which calls for an ad- vance of 20 per cent. on the present rate of wages, the pivotal point around which ultimate peace will re- turn.
 It is not possible to give the exact amount the miners demands would add to the company payroll. The the demand is now a variable quan- tity, depending on the company and character of work.

 Three demands, [, 8 and 9, while desired on the part of the men, will be neglible factors in the final adjust ment. These the miners will waive. Demand four has for its object the abolition of the conciliation board, a council created by the anthracite st,i Ike committee in 1902. It and de-

 Miss Byington and her assistant were invited here to examine the methods of charity dealing in this city and to report thereon.

 Both Judge Kane and Father Judge are understood heartily to approve the work of all the present employees of the board. Such being the case it is naturally supposed that they will vote to retain them and the only un- known factor in this situation is the forthcoming report of Miss Byington.

Employees of the Charities depart ment enjoyed the very pleasant sen- sation today of man who sits over a dynamite bomb and watches the fuse sizzle For something is schedul- ed to "break'' tomorrow afternoon when the Charities board meets to elect a new superintendent of poor and a pharmacist, to succeed Joseph V. Brennan, and possibly to make changes in the present staff of em- ployes.
 That no changes will he made if Judge Patrick Kane and Father Mat thew Judge hold out tor the present employees, goes without saying, for the two Democratic members of the board have the power of holding over' all present employees if they see fit to do so. By the rules of the Charities board, three concurrent votes are required for an election and these cannot be obtained without the consent of the two Democratic com missioners.
 As the men concerned are Demo- crats, with the exception of Merle c. Cowles, who is a Republican and safe anyway, it would naturally seem that the two Democratic commissioners will retain the present employees. Such is by no means the settled program, however, and the answer lies in the
