EXPECT TO SETTLE
COAL CONTROVERSY
Counter Proposition to be Submitted
AS an Opening Wedge to End
the Trouble.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service
NEW YORK, March 9-It was
learned here this evening that when
the anthracite coal operators meet
the scale committee of the miners
next Thursday, after rejecting the
original demands of the men. they
will probably submit a counter prop
osition which will provide for GER
tain increases in pay for certain
classes of work While it is not be-
lieved the new offer will be in any
way acceptable to the miners, it is
believed it will open the way for
general negotiations.
While the situation is serious, it was
stated by operators familiar with the
situation tonight they believed the
difficulty would be adjusted by agree
ing to extend the old agreement until
IA new one could be negotiated.

M'BR|DE SISTERS
BADLY SCARED.
Attempted Robbery Of Millinery Es-
Enlistment Causes Ladies' to
Scream for the Police
Friday Night.
THROUGH THE TRANsoM
Robbers Opened Safe and Entered
Living Rooms but Were Brighten
ed OFF by Cries
Of Victims.

A shout for police" Friday night
about $50 o'clock startled homeward
bound theatre-goers and brought Off
GERS on the run to the Mcbride mil
linery establishment on Main street.
The Misses Mcbride were discover
ed in a state of nervous collapse as a
result of scare by burglars in their
rooms above their store. An investi-
CATION proved that the robbers had
entered the room formerly occupied
by McCoy's millinery store and
from there had gained entrance to the
Benner Tea Co In the Benner store
they had calmly drawn UP chairs and
partaken OF variety Of fruits be-
fore continuing operations. After fin
ishing their lunch they had procured
big dry goods box and, climbing on
it, had effected an entrance to the
Mcbride store. There, they had look
ed over the store and opened the
safe, which was unlocked. and ran.
sacked the different compartments.
All the money had fortunately been
removed from the safe early in the
evening SO they had their trouble
there for nothing.
Evidently thinking there was no
one at home they proceeded up the
stairs to the living rooms of the
Misses Mcbride. Before going up
stairs they took the precaution to
lock the door leading from the store
to the stairway in order to keep any
of the returning occupants from sur.
prising them at their work.
| Miss Mcbride and her sister were
sitting at the front window with the
! lights out watching the street, when
| a noise in the bathroom sartled her
| Looking up she was momentarily
blinded by flashlight carried by the
robber. Although badly frightened
she demanded of him what he wanted
and evidently frightened the desper
1 ado as much as she was. for he turn
ed around and made off down the
/ back stairs and out into the alley.
The ladies at once raised cry TO,
+, the police who responded immediate
i y. No clue was left by the thieves but
