Wages Bitumin0us
Coal Miners at n. Y.

New York, Jan. 23.-(By A. P)-
A standard scale to be used in fixing
union wages and working conditions
for bituminous coal miners through
out the industry was agreed upon
here today by operator representa-
tives from the tri-state competitive
field and officials of the United Mine
Workers of America.
While the agreement was reached
in subcommittee. and needs ratifi-
cation by the whole joint conference
before it becomes a contract. this
formality is expected to be disposed
of at session called for tomorrow
morning.
Operators of Ohio, Indiana, and
Illinois. producing about So per cent
of the nations 500.000.O0O annual tom
mage, were parties to the agreement
which. when signed, will act as a
standard for determining wages and
working rules in the remaining Ga
per cent of mines in outlying states.
The only hint as to the contract
provisions came from Michael GAL
lagher. Ohio operator. and Joint
conference chairman, who said there
was no vital departure from the
'SA!hS VI Suo eAIStlnS agreement, ey.
piring next April. /.
This statement taken with unof-
fictal comment Of both sides tonight.
were:
Extension of the present scale of
$3.50 per eight hours for day work
and $1.0S per ton for contract min
ers
The contract to be Of one years
duration. instead of two years as
the union had sought.
The demand for a maximum e.
hour- 6-day-week. with time and
a half for overtime, and double time
FOR holidays dncluding Saturdavs1
and Sundays. was not pressed by the
miners. 1t was said.
IL was the general understanding
tonight that wariness of the Shere
man antitrust law, regarded with
considerable trepidation when the
conferences opened. because Of
pending indictments in federal
courts. was not to delay signatures
OF contract tomorrow.

the group of anarchists they believe
| responsible for the killing yesterday
of Marius Plateau. leader of the Roy
alist direct action gangs, by the girl
anarchist. Germaine Berthon.
Hundreds Of policemen. acting under
Is district chiefs. searched the rooms
of % persons known to be active anar-
cists. as. we'll as the offices of three
newspapers. La Fraternelle, LIE Liber-
taire and L'Union Anarchists.
The officers carried off quantities of
documents and letters but made no ar
rests. as far as known, although many
radicals we're placed under close sur
VIGILANCE in case they are wanted in the
near future.
Discovery of the torn bits Of a let
ter referring to anarchists being sus-
pected of the bomb outrage at the
Iaris home of the American ambassa-
dor. Myron T. Herrick, last October,
gave the police hope that they might
finally get clue to the guilty parties

a valid arrest in the case.
The assassination of Plateau caused
the royalist newspaper L'Action Fran

appeal was given first page position,
and the paper was bordered in black as
a sign Of mourning.
Mile. Berthon. who was apparently
not seriously wounded by the shot she
fired into her breast after killing Pla-
teau, gave the police sufficient informa-
ton to lead them to believe that the
crime was strictly political and was
instigated by an organization.
An inquiry also was begun today
with view to prosecution of the
group of royalists who sacked the Of
