NEW YORK, March 7:-operators
and miners OF the bttuminous coal

terday agreed on a wage increase for
soft coal diggers hoped to complete
their work today. Two important mat
ters that remained to be disposed of
before the subcommittee Of miners
and operators report to the full con.

are whether the wage contract shall
run two or. four years and the question
OF referring internal grievances to the
district for settlement.
The miners today are elated over
the granting OF an increase in wages
estimated at about $s,000.000 year.
To what extent the public will figure
in the cost OF producing coal, it is
too early to say. It.is known, however,
that the United States Steel corpora
tion, which takes considerable am
cunt of tonnage of the Pittsburgh Coal
company, the largest soft coal COM
pany in the country, will pay the ad-
vance OF coal it purchases from the
concern, as 1t; has a contract pledS.A g

burgh company has to give labor.
Other companies, it is said, have sim
liar contracts.
