OPERATORS AND MINERS WRANCLE
 ACRIMONIOUSLy
CContinued From Page One.)

President Lewis sharply denied charges of bad faith over the coal strike and the negotiations and Wm. Green, secretary-treasurer of the Mine Workers Union, took exception to Secretary Wilson's statement of Fri day that a sixty per cent. increase in coal miners wages was impossible. Green said that the Federal govern ment should see that the miners got that much increase to allow them an American standard of living.
 Speaking on behalf of operators outside the central competitive field, F. W. Lukens, president of the Southwestern Interstate Coal Opera tors association, proposed returning to the old policy of allowing the basic scale to be negotiated by the opera tors and miners in the central com petitive fields.
 Because outlying operators are not organized, Mir. Lukens said that no time should be wasted, but that pub lie interest in an early settlement makes it desirable to continue as in the past.
 MT. Lukens' statement imm ediately brought from MT. Lewis a charge of bad faith.
 Charging that the operators in the outlying districts had led miners and IIe DuDI-C to Del1eNe lIdI tIlGy "eI S ready to negotiate with the miners, Mir. Lewis exclaimed:
 ''Ye gods, is there no more good faith left in man? Are the mine workers of America to be the ever lasting victims of bad faith on the part of the people with whom they have to deal?''
 After announcing his acceptance of the secretary's suggestion, MT. Lewis said:
 T want to express my utter amazement at the attitude of the coal operators as stated by their spokes- man, MT. Lukens. If there is any one thing which has crystalized pub lie sentiment against the miner oper- ators it has been the oft-re3terated cry that the outlying operators had not been presented with demands by their workers although they stood ready and willing to negotiate a wage scale.
 "We stand here withssp potless robes, ready to negotiate scale in the vari- ous states outside the central compe- titive fields. MT. Lukens proposed to the governor of Missouri that they were ready to negotiate with the miners in Missouri, but Governor Gardiner wired me in protest, and the governors of West Virginia and other lates have done likewise"

WORKERS ARE
 WAITING FOR NEW AGREEMENT
(Continued From Page One. )

(COntinued From Page One.)
 Improvement in the general situa- ton was shown today in Wyoming, however, 1000 miners agreeing to re- turn to work at once under settle ment of the controversy between miners and operators. Colorado and Alabama showed some coal produc- ton.
 In the great Illinois fields virtually no work had been done since the strike was called more than two weeks ago, and resumption of work, union leaders said, was conditional on an agreement at Washington meet ing the Illinois miners demands for 60 per cent. increased wages and a 30-hour week.
 No union mines in the Pennsylvania district were expected to operate to- day, though the non-union miners were reported operating at normal capacity. In the West Virginia union fields the situation was said to be in a state of ''orderly chaos." In some mines where production had been re stunned, new walkOuts occurred yester- day.
 Because of little mining done in the Indiana district and little prospect for early resumption. the fuel situation there today was regarded as becom- ing alarming, with Q similar cOndi- ton prevailing in Kansas, where il fly O,0O0 union miners would go back to work.
 In the Ohio fields little coal was expected to be hoisted earlier than next week by the forty thousand union men

YANKEES WILL
 NOT TRAIN ON

New York, Nov. 15-A report came out of California yesterday that the Yankees may train in Fresno, Cal, next spring with the San Francisco Seals as training partners. The story said that Fresno could have the two clubs provided 1t fitted up a first class ball field and provided accom- mdatons for a hundred persons.
 Harry Sparrow, business manager of the Tanks, yesterday declared that either Fresno or the San Francisco club would have to guarantee some thing of still greater importance - namely the long green.
 "A representative of the San Fran cisco club came to see me c the sub ject of having the Yankees train in California next spring. said Spar row. 'I told him it would be a fine thing, provided they gave us a guar antee sufficient to cover the big ex- pense of taking a ball club, with all ! it's spring crop of youngsters, to Cali fornia. I mentioned a pretty stiff sum, and I guess that is the end of it. There is a possibility of us going out there in 1921, but little prospect of a California trip next spring."
