Both Anthracite and Bituminous
Fields Are Threatened With Tie-up
on Account of Wage
Contracts.
Soft Coal Workers Are in Just as
Much Of Tangle As Are Those

WASHINGTON. March ia gen.
eral national coal strike, involving
100000 miners in both anthracite and
bituminous fields, il the anthracite in
terests fail to reach an agreement by
April /. was predicted today by
Chairman Wilson Of the house labor
committee.
THE public seems to have lost sight
of the fact entirely that the bitumin-
GUS coal miners have failed to sign
agreements" said Wilson, member
of the labor group in congress.
"The bituminous coal miners number
at least 100000 while the anthracite
miners number 10000. If the an
thracite men fail to agree, the strike
is certain to involve all of the bitumin-
GUS workers except possibly few
non-union men in the south. Personal
ly, however, believe agreements will
be reached
Wilson said his committee would
not act until after developments

Soft Coal Situation.
CLEVELAND, Ohio, March 19.--
Thirty-two representative operators
of the soft coal mines in Ohio, Penn
sylvania, Indiana and Illinois will
meet in executive session today to
/ frame their reply to the demands of
4 the miners. These are to be formal.
1ly presented tomorrow, when the
/ bituminous coal conference opens
here. 1t Is said the operators reply
will be an absolute refusal to accede
! to the demands of the miners for any
| increase in wages and will in fact,
be either a plea to allow the present
scale to stand or to cut it further
| down.
| Meanwhile the belief that there will
/ be at least a suspension" of thirty
1 days at the mines grows hourly. The
! Standard Oil CO. and the subsidiaries
Of the steel trust have docked i'm
mense quantities of soft coal. 1t is
presumed these Rockefeller and
| Morgan interests know better than
any in the land how the cards read.
The price of all grades is rising at
the rate of twenty-five cents a day and
/ spring discounts except that given in
iron-clad contracts, have been aban-
doned.
1 In the conference Wednesday sixty
| four men will participate. Half of
these will represent the operators and
half the miners. President John P.
/ White Of the United Mine Workers,
will preside. White has already call
ed a meeting of the policy" commit
/ tee of the union, to be held in this
city March %. This is to consider
what course shall be taken in the
event neither the anthracite or btu
minous operators make any overtures
/ to the miners.

Weather Conditions.

The northwestern depression has
passed eastward to the upper lake
region, the area of low pressures ex-
tending thence to western Kansas,
while the pressure remains high in
the eastern portion of the country.
These conditions have caused con
tinued warm weather from the Missis-
sippi valley eastward.
Following the depression an area
of high pressure has moved down from
Alberta into Montana, with low tenn
perature, and is causing colder wealth
er in the northern mountain and plat
eau regions, with snow in Montana.
Conditions indicate threatening,
colder weather for this section to-
night, and generally fair weather.

Baker Ground to Death.

Shenandoah, June H. Special:
Henry Peterson, baker in the Home
bakery here, met death yesterday by
being ground to pieces in the bread
mixer. His body choked the machin-
cry and the proprietor, alarmed at
the unwonted stiffness, began to
search for the cause. He soon locat-
ed Peterson's body in the mixer, the
bottom being filled with blood. 1t
is not known whether the tragedy
was with suicidal intent or entirely
accidental.
