oe, Eh Operators Blame Miners for Delany. New York, April 24—Representa- tives of the anthracite coal operators announced that they have received the following letter from President Mit- clination to submit all the differences between the operators and the miners to arbitration: “George F. Baer, Chairman. “Dear Sir—Your favor dated April 17 is received. Replying will say that I have called a meeting of the commit tee representing the anthracite miners to be held at Wilkes-Barre Wednesday morning, April 25, at which the com- munication signed by you and your as sociates will be submitted for the con- sideration of the committee. At the | Standard and compartment sleepers with adjournment of the meeting I shall communicate with you further. “JOHN MITCHELL.” The following, entitled “statement ca behalf of the anthracite operators” but not signed was also given out: “When Mr. Mitchell presented his plan of arbitration on April 12 the op erators informed him then and there that it could not be accepted. They also notified him that a detailed reply would be ready on April 17. The af: fairs of a rival industry, however, de manded Mr. Mitchell's attention in In- dianapolis on April 16 and it was not until April 21 that he could even ac knowledge the operators letter of the 17th. “Jt should be very definitely under stood that the delay in these negotia- tions is not caused by the operators. They handed their formal reply to the miners original demands to Mr. Mit chell’s committee on March 9. But in order to take up the controversy with the bituminous operators Mr. Mitchell had to leave New York on March 10, and he was absorbed with questions relating entirely to the soft coal fields until March 81. On March 29, with out any warning or further discussion, a strike to begin April 1 in the entire anthracite industry was ordered from Indianapolis, the soft coal miners headquarters. Not until April 3 was Mr. Mitchell again able to meet the | anthracite operators. | “Now, once more, from April 12 tc April 25, the affairs of the anthracite region must be neglected while the bituminous dispute is taken up. Each industry alternately waits while efforts are being made to fix terms with its rival. Meanwhile the antbracite mines are idle and some 150,000 men are led to sacrifice their wages. The strike has been in progress now for over three weeks, and exactly 36 days have been lost in these negotiations since March 9 by reason of the demands upon the miners leader by the compet: ing bituminous industry.” MINERS TO DECIDE Advisability of Ordering a Strike Will be Left to Them. i ’ilkes-Barre, Pa., April 24—T. D | Nicholl, W. H. Dettrey and John Fa | hey, presidents representing districts | Nos. 1, 7 and 9 of the anthracite re glon, arrived here and National Pres! dent John Mitchell is expected tc reach here Wednesday. It is said that the miners’ committee are to meet here also on Wednesday 01 Thursday, but no attempt will be made to recpen negotiations with the operators. The whole matter will be left to a decision of the mine workers, who will be asked to vote on the ad visability of a strike. MANY DEAD IN MINE DISASTER Dust Explosion in Coloradc Shaft Kille Twenty-two. Trinidad, Col, April 23.—As the re sult of a dust explosion in a mine of the Colorado Iron and Fuel company, 40 miles west of Trinidad, 22 miners are known to be dead and one other ie missing. There were 40 men in the mine at the time of the explosion. Seventeen miners who were working 3700 feet from the entrance escaped uninjured through another opening. The explo sion occurred in rooms 3 and 4 near the main entrance, and was the result of a windy shot, which ignited the dust. An order for 22 coffins has been received by a local undertaking estab: lishment here, as many bodies as have been taken out. The mine was not badly damaged, and work can be re sumed in a couple of days. The mine gave employment to 180 men Miners {from adjacent camps are assisting the rescue.
