Anthracite Strike
Probably Will Be
Adjusted Soon

y CLEVELAND. o., March 3o--Prac-
ticaily the whole coal sltuatiofhN dis
turbed by the anthracite and bitufninods
miners wage disputes, today was put on
basis whereby 1t Is thought all differ
enees will be settled amlcably. with only
a short suspension OF work.
The announcement from Philadelphia
that the anthracite operators and miners
will confer in Philadelphia on April 10
TO secure terms Of new wage agree
ment thus reopening their pegotiations
broken off in New York, on March lS,
was followed by the signing on the part
OF the bitumlnous operators and miners
OF an agreement whose chief provision is
for an increase in pay to the men OF
cents a ton. AS II Is less than the
miners asked, It. too, will have to be
submitted to a referendum vote of the
union before II may become effective.
This, the miners say. will entail short
suspension in the bitumionus fields.
