Hope that anthracite operators
and miners might reconcile their
differences in time to avert suspen-

Lewis, president of the United Mine
Workers Of America told Samuel
Warriner, chairman of the anthra-
cite operators conference, that fur
ther negotiations were useless un-
til the operators abandoned their
opposition to increases, and adop-
tion of the check-off.
Mr.. Lewis communication was in
reply to Mr. WARMERS comment Of
last Thursday on the original Lew

breaking up of the scale conference
on the previous Tuesday.
Although the miners steadily
counselled against false hopes on
the strength of it, considerable in

Mr.. Lewis would take in replying.
! No further exchange between the
two sides appears likely soon.
Mr.. Lewis writing from the Hotel
Ambassador under date of yester-
day addressed Mr.. Warirner at the
operators headquarters, Philadel-
phia, as follows:
Ny Dear Mr.. Warriner:
/ acknowledge your favor Of the
sixth instant. I do not desire to
quibble over the fine shades Of
meaning affecting words and In

your Atlantic City conferees in
rentatives, including myself, that
they would reject any demand that
would disturb the factor Of mine
costs. In addition, they rejected the
request for the full recognition OF
the Union for some other mysteri-
Gus reason. Your letter confirms
the position of your committee. Be
it so. We do not have any further
inclination to further argue when
judgement has been given. I will
be glad to hear from you when YOU
abandon this position.
II note your reference to my pre-
vious comments upon arbitration.
1 can well understand your natural
irritation in the premises. I re.
ferred, of course, to the arbitration
proceedings of some years ago.
when the final decision of the arbi-
traitor was changed between twi.
light and dawn. You might, II YOU
wish, accept the preference as com.
pliment from the mine workers to Q
ski1lful adversary.

trate. Thanks for the offer. We
know that you think the medicine
would be good for us, but frankly
we have little faith in your diagno-

we do will modestly decline to ac-
