HARD COAL DECISION
HANGING IN BALANCE
fBy Associated Press)

NEW YORK, April 29.--The fate of
the anthracite wage negotiations ap-
peared today to rest with the mine
operators representatives on the sub
committee appointed to negotiate a
new agreement for the hard coal re-
gion.
Rejection by the miners of the oper-
atOrs offer of a wage increase of ap-
prONlmately Is per cent, or arbitra-
ton by a board named by President
Wilson, left the negotiations in dead
lock last night.
Representatives of the miners, be-
fore going into session with the oper-
ators today, declared that they had
no further suggestion to offer and
would stand on their demands as pre-.
Sented. The operators did not indi.
cate whether they would have any
thing new to offer.
