anthracite Wage Farley
To Resume Here Today

The conferences between the hard coal
operators and miners officials that
have been in progress for two weeks
will be resumed at o'clock this after
noon at the Union League Club.
Philip Murray, president Of the
United Mine Workers Of America, said
yesterday at Hotel Pennsylvania that
he did not think even the small per-
ccntage of miners that refused to an
swer the strike call in various sections
OF the country, notably in the Altoona
district and in West Virginia, Colora-
do, Kentucky and Alabama, would re-
main in the mines very long.
I'VE expect all of these men to 60
out in few days." Mr.. Murray said,
$50 that the mine shutdown will be
the few thousands in the remote sec
tions who refused to drop their picks
with the rest do not make very much
difference in the grand total"
He said that efforts to unionize the
100000 men who responded to the
strike call on Saturday, but who did
not belong to the United Mine Workers
of America, were being made. and he
expected they would join the union be-
fore the end Of the strike.
"We are going into the meeting to-
morrow afternoon" Mr.. Murray said,
with our demands unsltered. We shall
continue to present them. There has
been no further word from Washing
ton, so far as ! know, and we expect to
settle the questions involved ourselves" "
Regarding the situation in District
No. 2, in Pennsylvania, where the op-
orators claim to have an agreement
with the miners that provided for wage
meetings prior to the agreements ex-
piration, F. E. Herman, president of
the Clearfeld Bituminous Coal Corpo-
ration, said yesterday that the union
was responsible for failing to hold such
meetings.
The Clearfeld company is subsidi-
airy of the New York Central Railroad.

the operators have said it will, hitting
the smaller communities first. Some
industries in small towns, he said, have
only supply of from nve to ten DAYS.
hlle the miners are prepared to act
to reileVe any public suffering or dis
tress resulting from the strike. they
VIII not act in behalf of such indus
tries as they are commercial and have
assummer such hazards, their leader
said.
The miners do not seek government
intervention, but they do seek to hold
the operators to their promise and also
a thorough investigation Of the coal
industry, Mr.. Lewis declared. He ex-
poets to remain in Washington until
Wednesday, when he will return to
New York for several days to partici-
pate in the anthracite negotiations. He
will go to Indianapolis at the end Of
the week, according to present plans.

Report on Textile Industry
Seven ear Loss to Labor Put
at S7S6.32l.00O

The Labor Bureau, Inc, yesterday
issued a statement of the profits and
wages Of the textile industry over
period of years in an effort to show
that there had been marked decline
in the relative figures to date.
The figures, which the bureau says
are taken from the census reports, al
though they indicate that the return to
labor had been growing smaller, never
theless show that last year the per-
centage was higher in the proportion
of 65 per cent to labor and 35 per cent
to the operators. The share than went
to the owners last year was $158,952,-
0OO Labor got 1892, 900.
Over the entire period from 1914 to
1921, the statement shows, the loss to
labor, figuring on the 1914 purchasing
power Of tbs dollar, was s75s, ,32l, 900.

held, however. it being forecast that
the 100 per cent tie-up in the state will
most likely persist throughout most Of
the summer, even with a separate
agreement as the final outcome.
In all the towns and villages Of the
coal country the inhabitants went about
their usual Sunday routine, with no
hint that $4,000 men in the state arc
thrown idle by the strike.
No hint of disorder in southern Ili-
no1s because of the strike was reported
to-day, although several instances Of
shootings within the mining districts
have been reported since the strike be-
came effective. In no case could these
be traced to ill-feeling between tho
men and the employers. Each of such
cases was attributable to a coalbina-
tion of too much enthusiasm coupled
with too much moonshinc.

Speciol Dispatch TO The Tribune

W1LKES-BARRE, Pa, April 2.-Rad-
ical propaganda, put out under tho
name Of the Industrial Workers of the
World, is flooding the anthracite field
Hard coal operators and conservative
union leaders are denounced and in
fan matory posters call on the strikers
to join zone big union" From union
leaders and coal operators comes the
report that professional agitators are
in the field taking advantage of the
anthracite situation to spread Bolshe-
v,k doctrines. A few reports have been
made to the state police of aliens pur-
chasing guns and pistols. Local unions
are taking notice of the danger, and
many Of them have called their mem
bcrship together to warn them against
permitting the Red menace to take root
in the coal fields.
From one end of the field to another
the Reds are active. The doctrine of
the Communist is being preached open
ly where it is possible and under cover
when occasion demands it.
The anthracite miners expect that
their troubles will be over within six
weeks. They believe they will get at
least a renewal Of their present con-
tract and insist they will stand by the
leaders and continue the strike indef-
initely if the operators make any effort
to cut wages II per cent.
A fire is raging in the Butler colliery
Of the Pennsylvania Coal Company
This fire was started, it is believed, by
bootleggers who had a still in part of
the workings. The fire has gained con-
siderable headway. Union leaders is
sued a permit to strikers to engage in
fire fighting and three squads of men
have been placed at work.

HAzLEToN, Pa, April 2:-one Of
the matters to come up at the confer

they resume their negotiations on a
new wage agreement, probably will be
in connection with the dismissal Of

who were supposed to remain on duty

and replaced them with foremen and

Thomas Kennedy, president of the
United Mine Workers of the Hazleton
district and chairman of the anthracite
scale committee, is expected to ask the
operators to give instructions that the
engineers and other exempted from the
suspension order are not to be dis

 the game with them having trim med the local Kaceys, 6 to 1. The To- cal team proved a sad disappointment to those who expected to see some
 sort of game as the local team played like a bunch of school kids especially in the field. Balls hitt to

 Gaw had nothing on the ball ex- cept the trade mark and for the first five innings the Fitchburg warriors swung their clubs for 13 hits and pounded across 6 runs. After the fifth the local team began to collect them selves and settle down to play base

 There is no question abou. it that a great thing in Mexico City, he said, the Mexicans know Johnson and think he is the last word in fighting ability. They believe he can best Dempsey and they would turn out by thousands to see him do it.
 "The fight is no impossibility. But I don't suppose I'll promote it. I've wired Kearns by radio and I'll ad- init that the reason came to this country now was to see Kearns, Demp- sey and Billy Gibson.
