HOW STRIKE
MAY BE ENDED
AN .INGENIOUS SCHEME TOR
RAISING WAGES.
No Increased Cost to the Consumer,
No Embrtrassment to the Mine
Owner President Bncr's Principal
Arguments Met Efforts of a prom,
inent business Man to So Justice
to Both Sides to the Controversy.
Plan by Which Ho, Would End
the Present Struggle.
"Miles of literature have been spun
since the coal strike was Inaugurated
seventeen weeks ago," said a well
known business man yesterday to
a Tribune man. "Acres of white
paper," ho continued, "have been
spoiled with denunciation and dia
tribe fioiu both sides to the con
troversy hut few, If any, practical sug
gestions have been made as to how
the miners und the operators might
settle their differences and restore
peace and prosperity to themselves and
the community.
".Somehow the Impression Is nbrond
that In resisting the 'demands of the
men tho mine owners are actuated by
mere obstlnncy; that they arc wilfully
deaf to advice nnd Impervious to rea
son; that their one great object Is to
destroy the organization of the United
Mine Workers by starving Its member's
Into submission but such suspicions
are not founded In common sense; they
are far-fetched because there Is not
one Iota of any published statement oft
any representative of the mine owners'
to justify such n conclusion.
"To believe some current llternture
one must regard President Baer singly
and alone as the onl,y obstacle to a.
speedy settlement of the coal strike.
1 "To credit the news from-the other
side and to not know the man, one
must suspect John Mitchell ns an am
bitious young man who Is leading a
cause which he believed to have been
lost before It was begun. Neither side
is wholly right; neither wholly wrong.
BOTH SIDES OF THE STRIKE.
"I believe that the contending forces
have a sufficiency of the strike and that
a better understanding by each of tho
rights of the other Is all that Is neces
sary to bring to a speedy termination
the unpleasantness now existing. In
the published statements of President
Baer there does not appear any denial
of any lawful right to which the mine
worker Is entitled. Now it President
Mitchell will proclaim. the legal right
of the mine owners to operate their
mines in every lawful manner, includ
ing the right to employ and discharge
men for cause, with assent to members
of the United Mine workers to resume
their former positions I believe it would
be a matter of only a very short time
until a substantial readjustment of con
ditions and wages is made in favor of
the men.
"It seems to be a foregone conclu
sion that this will be a very long strike,
unless the mine workers return to work
on the basis of unconditional surrender.
And in doing so I candidly believe that
no sacrifice of principle would bo made
and much good would bo almost cer
tain to follow. Let mo offer some rea
soning for my conclusions. In the lir.st
place, employers, like other people, aie
not in the best condition to be liberal
when business Is not prosperous. As
Is well known tho schedule of prices for
coal takes 50 cents per ton off the win
ter price on the first day of April In
each year. This reduced price rfses
through the month of April. On the
first days of May, June, July, August
and September the price Is advanced
ten cents per ton, and tho price is then
fixed for the seven months from Sept.
1 to April 1. It is thus evident that
when the strike was declared coal was
after selling for a month at the lowest
price of tho year, and at the time the
operations ceased only one advance of
ten cents had been made.
GOOD TIME FOR SUSPENSION.
"With coal selling In May at 40 cents
per ton less than the winter prices
Is there not good reason for the mine
owners to prefer a suspension of oper
ations rather than submit to demands
which would result in great loss be
sides possible ruin to many individual
operators. It Is an easy mutter to
offer plans and methods for the con
duct of another's business. Let tho
result be success or failure, the pro
moter mny win, but cannot lose.
"Usually the fellow who Is most pro
line In suggestions for spending tho
capital of another has very little to
show for tho wisdom applied to his
own business. All parties concerned
might as well face tho question square
ly, and tho sooner tho better. Neither
corporations nor individuals can afford
to conduct any kind of business at a
loss for any great length of time and
every employer must have a liberal
margin of prollt to conduct his affairs
successfully and to provide against pos
sible losses, accidents, wear and tear
and the thousand and one Items of
expense that cannot be calculated on
tho cost of the product. The mlno
owners' profit at the end of a year is
very often formed in tho good fortune
he has had In escape from costly ac
cidents. So I think it must bo admit
ted that the coal operator Is entitled
to some prollt on his output of coal ns
well as his chance of escape from ac
cidents! NO SACRIFICE OF PRINCIPLE.
"I have stated that no saciillco of
principle would result from an uncon
ditional surrender- of tho men nt this
time. My reasons for this statement
are based on tho presumption that
prosperity makes nil men liberal, and
I have commence that tho mlno owners
aro not different from employers In
other lines of trade nnd commerce,
There Is a beautiful precedent thnt
gives a basis for this rensonlng In the
action of tho United States Steel cor
poration In the case of theAmulgu
mated Steel Workers, when the latter,
after a long and bitter contest, were
vanquished and overthrown, returned
to work, wero most handsomely treat
ed to a voluntary advunce In wages by
their high-minded victors, and today
they aro enjoying the fiults for which
they fought and lost. Ho, too, 1 be
lleve thnt If tho mine workeis return
to work, local grievances will bo ad.
Justed. When, tho mines uro put nto
successful operation, some of the heavy
losses resulting from tho strike aro met
und a period of prosperity Is entered
upon, the mine woikers muy expect
treatment blmtlar to that received by
the Amalgamated Steel Workers.
"In this connection I venture to sug
t,?St a plan for compromise on tho fol.
low'ng basis;

of January, February and March. To
April wages no addition fpr the reason
that April coal will be sold at 50 cents
per ton off tho winter prices. For
May- coal an advance of 10 cents per
ton being mado to tho selling price, tho
mine worker to got the benefit of this
In an addition of 2 per cent, to his
wages, In Juno an additional 2 per
cent., In July 2 per cent, in August 2
per cent., nnd in September 2 per cent.,
making the addition in September 10
per cent., and this lo rcmnin every
month until April following, when the
10 per cent, would again be taken off
and mado up nt the rate of 2 per cent,
per month until tho 10 per cent. Is
again reached, and so continue.
WOULD SEEM EQUITABLE.
"If the coal operators can afford to
do this the plan would seem to be most'
equitable and the mlno workers would
be getting the full benefit of the winter
prices on coal. When It Is known that
this advance of f0 cents per ton ap
plies only to prepared sizes, or sizes
above pea coal, which average only
about 60 per cent, of the output, and
also that anthracite coal Is sold at the
mines on the basis of Co per cent, of
tidewater prices, it will be readily seen
that the mine worker, receives all that
comes from the advance on winter
coal."
PHILLIPS NOMINATED.
He Is the Candidate of the Demo
crats of the Second Legis
lative District.
The Democrats of tho Second legis
lative district, at a convention held at
the St. Charles hotel yesterday after
noon, nominated Fred J. Phillips, com
mon councilman of the Eleventh ward,
as their candidate for legislature In that
district. He had no opposition, tho
candidate having been selected at a
meeting of Democratic leaders Monday
evening, when John C. Itoche was in
duced to retire from the contest.
J. F. Hammes, chairman of the dis
trict standing committee, called tho
convention to order, and Edward J.
McNally wa3 elected secretary. The
credentials of the delegates were re
ceived and the roll of the convention
prepared.
The chairman appointed a committee
on resolutions consisting of John J.
Fahey, Sheriff C. II. Schadt and Mar
tin Cnddcn, nnd the temporary organi
zation was then made permanent. Tho
report of the committee on resolutions
was read by Mr. Fahey and adopted.
They condemned tho Republican party
endorsed the Democratic state candi
dates and concluded ns follows:
Wo sympathize with tho miners In their
efforts to proeuro more favorable treat
ment from their employers. We earnestly
hope that a basis of settlement mny soon
be found which will amicably ndjust nil
differences and avoid future conflicts.
Tho pence, wclfaro nnd prospeiity of the
country depend upon harmonious rela
tions existing between thoso who hire
and thoo who fell labor. Tho necessities
of all forms of industrial and commercial
enterprises acknowledge that a primary
condition of social contentment nnd busi
ness activity is that capital and labor
shall wotk In concert and for cacli others
advantage,
Chairman Hammes asked for nomina
tions for tho legislature, and Mnrtln
Cadden presented tho name of Fred J.
Phillips. That was the only nomina
tion, and on motion of Martin Fer
guson, of the Thirteenth ward, Mr.
Phillips was chosen by acclamation.
Ho thanked tho delegates and then
said: "If elected I promise to do
everything I can to help tho Democrat
ic party."
"Not forgetting tho miners," amend-
i Martin Ferguson, of tho Thirteenth
.ard. "Of course," answered Phillips.

SETTLEMENT OP THE
DEAN-H0WELL CASES
The Equity, Conslpracy and Orphans
Court Proceedings Are Satis
factorily Compromised.
The legal proceedings brought by
Mrs. Jennie Howell-Denn against her
brother, Franklin Howell, wero ended
yesterday at a meeting of the parties
and their attorneys In the law offices
of O'Brien & Martin.
On this week's equity list appeared
the case In which' Mrs. Dean sought to
compel her brother to make an ac
counting with reference to certain
property their father had left to them,
Franklin being named as the trustee.
It was alleged by Mrs. Dean In her bill
that her brother had squandered up
wards of $150,000 that belonged to her.
These charges were denied by Mr.
Howell, Then there was a conspiracy
case In which Mrs. Dean sued to re
cover damages fiom her brother and
Thomas Bevan who she charged with
Inspiring the lunacy proceedings
against her,
Pioceedlngs were also pending in the
orphans court where Mrs. Dean filed
117 exceptions to the report of Franklin
Howell as tho executor of his father'3
estate.
In view of the unpleasant disclosures
that would follow a public trial of any
of these cases the parties got together
and compiomised their differences In a
way that Is highly satisfactory to both
sides and puts un end to the unplensant
Incidents that have followed so thickly
In the train of the sensational marriage
of Mrs. Dean.
Mr. Howell was represented at the
settlement by Attorney M. J. Martin
and Mrs. Dean by Attorneys I. H.
Burns and Layton Shock.
