Mine Inspector Edward Boyle today
declared himself superintendent OF the
San Bois mine and said he would
continue in authority until the mine

in the pit since the explosion here

nunciation Of the lame methods em-
ployed by the company, and on COM

bosses for a lecture.
II do not want TO hear OF you men

the superintendent tells you to-" he
declared. "Tll have some sUperln-

necessary as a means of properly pro-

The San Bois coal company owns
three mines here. All are closed and
will not be opened only at Boyle's or
ders, The financial stringency of the
miners families was relieved today.

Counter Statements.

Two counter-slatements issued this
afternoon on behalf of the bnuml-
nous mine operators and mine work
ers tend TO strengthen the former
declarations that neither side will re-
cede from its position In the wage
scale controversy.
"Unless the operators offer us some
concession when we meet with them
again Tuesday" said President White
of the miners "a strike is certain. We
cannot accept the present contract.
We must have an increase In wages. -
Charles IL. Maurer, a Cleveland coal
opera.or and member OF the commit
tee said: 1--WE cannot possibly grant
the miners an increase in wages. At
the present scale of wages we can
scarcely compete with the chean, nom
union coal OF West Virginia. Strike
or no strike, we cannot concede a
raise. IL would bankrupt u.s."
