Small Producers in Western

EVICTIONS SET FOR TODAY
EXPECTED TO BE DELAYED

1 Bu a Staff Correspondent
Washington. Pa.. July !U. Indica
tions are that the United Mine Work
ers of America nrc planning n surprise
en the soft coal operators who have
been trying te place the bituminous
fields of Southwestern Pennsylvania en
an open-shop bosh.
It was lenrncd tedny that under the
plans of Jehn I. Lewis. national, presi
dent of the union, the union lenders
expect te split the coal producers who
heretofore have been standing together.
Then they hope te sign wage agreements
with these operators willing te deal
ulth the unions.
The unions have worked out plans
by which they expect te Induce the
mailer companies te agree te the 1020
wage scale. The operators wanted te
go back te the 1017 scale. The unions,
it Is learned, bnse their plans en belief
that certain of the smnller operators
cannot stand the strain of n prolonged
fight for nn open shop.
Mr. Lewis, It Is understood, will
present his plan at n conference in
Philadelphia next Wednesday.
Small Operators Restive
The Pittsburgh Cenl Producers' As
sociation controls the' output in this
region, and of this association, the
Pittsburgh Ceal Company, with about
fixtj mines, 1b tl dominating factor,
representing about 00 per cent of the
'teniiiigp of the association. The Pitts
burgh Ceal Company was the principal
factor in the present effort te break the
strike by operating four selected mines
in this vicinity with the protection of
the National Guard, the Stote police,
n army of deputy sheriffs and the corps
of special coal and Iren police.
It is being made apparent, however,
that the campaign of the Pittsburgh
Ceal Company is net meeting with the
Miceess hoped for. Seme cenl is being
produced, but net en anything like a
ltlte scale. TIip four mines selected
for the open-shop demonstration hnve
failed te produce nn thing like the
normal tonnage.
The small operators are getting
restive. It Is understood they have en
tered into negotiations with Mr. Lewis
for separate agreements. In fact, it is
paid some of them already hnve definitely
agreed with Lewis te break away from
the producers' association.
El let Ions Net Expected Today
One Indication that the Xntlenal
Guard is contributing nothing te the
resumption of cenl mining is word from
the operators that many of them have
no intention of trjlng te import work
ers en nny Inrge scnle. They had been
billing te awnit the outcome of the ef
fort of the Pittsburgh Ceal Company
te break the strike and. of oeurFO. If
that effort hud been successful they
imply would have hired their old men
back. There are these among (he op
erators who frankly talk of being cenl
peer lets of coal land, but no divi
dends. Today was (lie dny when the Pitts
burgh Ceal Company wns (e evict the
miners from company homes nt the
Menteur Ne. 4 Mine. Hill Station, near
Canonsburg. It looked very much this
morning as If the evictions would be
aelajed for several days.
After a conversation yesterday with
General Manager Armstrong, of the
Pittsburgh Ceal Company, Father Jehn
J: Hughes, of St. Elizabeth's Catholic
Church, nt the Menteur mine, passed
the word among the miners te sit tight ;
fceget the Ideu from the talk with Arm
strong that the company would net start
Mictiens right awav. This nmv he
taken, of course, as evidence that the
company iins no great number of men
te put In the plnce of the union work
Ben and their fnmilles.
, Church Grounds for Tent Colony
Father Hughes bus made arrange
ments: for miners who may be evicted te
be housed in tents en the church's
grounds. One strike lender said that
ground for another tent coleur had been
leaned by one of the smnller operators.
The men are prepared te move out
quletlv If evicted. Mnny have elrendv
moved.
Yesterdny the Pittsburgh miners'
loed relief conference sent n truck lead
of previsions, bread, beans, ets.. te the
miners nt Menteur mine. This wns ac
companied by a banner, which was
spread en the front of Hie miners' head
quarters ami wbich rend:
'Hrend vs. Mullets Pittsburgh

Miners."

ar he was chaplain of the Sixth Divi
sion In France, the hiking Sixth. Father
Hughes can fight as well ns preach. Net
any gees by but that he offer.s te
roll up hln hIccvca and settle nn argu
ment with the lists. There me times,
'apt Father Hughes, when no ether kind
of logic will nvull. Just new, with the
threat of eviction in the air, ami with
ynairs nt a critical point, Father
llughes is bending all his efforts te keep
me men calm.

1 The Piesldent has been told, it was -snid,
that Mr. Jewell, In the union
, conference te he held tomorrow ut Chi
cago, would give his indersement te
I the settlement proposal.
1 Mr. Cujler nml Mr. Atterbury, it v
wns said, did net go se far as the
union head, but were said te have ad
vised the President that they would
ut least vote for Its ncceptnnce. It
I was said that Mr. Cuyler told the
President he would agree te present
'the executive's pie'Kisil.s te the rall-
wuy heads' conference tomorrow at
I New Yerk nnd In doing se expressed
the pcroenal belief that they ought te

Administration lenders snid they ex
pected n spirited debate In tomorrow's
session of the executives, but that the
I finel result would be e reluctant ac
ceptance of the President's proposals.
! It may be, ncierding te Administra

proposals and .vleldlug te the union de
mands for w niviug the men's seniority
