Conner Men Get Bonus.

The wolverine and Mohawk Copper
Mining companies, Calumet, Mich, in
paying their 1,200 employees on July
81 included an extra check for 5 per
cent of the total wages of June as a
bonus because of the high price at
which copper is selling. 1t came as a
surprise to the men. 1t was unofficial
ly announced that the two companies
might continue to pay the same bonus
every month while copper remains at
20 cents a pound or better. 1t was
said that several other mining compa-
nies will follow this example.

company ut Yonkers. ~ Y, were agree
ably surprised when they received
their pay envelopes on July % to find
in them slips announcing 10 per cent
increase in wages. The increase aggre-
gates $4,000 a week and brings the
company's weekly payroll up to about
100000 The mills have been running
only four days a week for some time.
but ii is expected that full time opera

The increase is said TO have been or
dered by Alexander Smith Cochran,
well known in yachting circles, who is
the controlling director. He has been
participating more actively in the af-
fairs of the company of late. The in
crease restores wage scale which eX-
listed up TO two years ago, when it was
announced that general business con
ditions necessitated a cut.
Part time operation of the mills had
been caused to some extent by inabili-
ty to get enough dyestuffs after the

HOPE FOR AGREEMENT.

United Mine Workers Not Preparing
For Strike Next Spring.
President John P. White of the Unit
cd Mine Workers of America recently
gave out a statement in which he de-
clared that the miners of the anthra-
cite fields were not preparing for
strike at the expiration of the present
agreement. His statement follows:
Articles appearing in certain newspa-
pers during the last few days, for the
most part published a great distance
from the anthracite industry, contain
ing the information that the anthra-
cite mine workers are making huge
preparations for big strike at the ex-
piration of the present agreement,
March 81. 1916, are absolutely un-
founded
The campaign now being conducted
in the anthracite region is for the sole
purpose of uniting the men of the
mines as members of the United Mine
Workers of America. When the an
thracite miners have perfected their
organization | am of the belief that the
union will be sufficiently strong and
efficient to command the respect and
recognition it deserves.
/ have every reason to feel assured
that the operators, like the miners,
want to be fair, and consequently
am at a loss to understand why the at
tempt in some quarters is being made
to misrepresent the real purpose of our
present membership campaign.
The international officials nor dis
trict officials have formulated any
plans that contemplate a strike at the
expiration of the agreement. We are,
on the other hand, hopeful that we will
enjoy the opportunity to meet the OPP
orators in conference and reach a fair
agreement, embracing needed reforms
and betterments that we feel quite
confident the general condition of the
industry will permit. The public
should not become alarmed at the sto-
ries of strike nature, for the mission
of the United Mine Workers is one of
peace. and predict that such will be
the outcome of our negotiations when
we meet the operators.
