Yesterday before Judge Ray, In the United

The government strongly opposed the

end OF March. the suspension 10 continue
until an agreement was reached on the
new demands OF the mine workers. one Of
the most prominent coal dealers I'm the city.
Who has followed the situation both at the
mines and in the city, said that for num-
bers OF weeks many large manufacturing
establishments. which consume great guam
titles of coal all the year. had been laying
in extra supplies OF anthracite, IN prepara-
ton for the shutdown.
The conferences over the demands are
expected to begin on February q. in this
city" he said That will be only pre-
liminary conference. and II IL taken as a
sure thing that when the agreement ex-
pires. at the end OF March. the conferences
will be n long way from being ended. The
minets will not strike on April II the
conferences are still going on, at least in
the ordinary sense. They will simply sus-
pend work pending the outcome OF the con-
ferences.
THE operators do not want a strike, and
Il Is assumed they will be ready 10 do any
thing in reason to avert a strike. The sit
uation has changed since the strike OF 1902
At that time the miners, while not working
all the year round, could mine more coal
than was needed, and there was a large
surplus on hand Since that time the con-
sumption OF anthracite has increased 80
