MINE WORKERS ARE RESTLESS Dissatisfied With Delays of Conciliation Board. Stand Taken by the Opera tors' Representatives Is Not Conducive to Peace in the Anthracite Region It is believed that the breach between the members of the Anthracite Concilia tion Board is daily widening, and the thousands of mine workers who are looking up to these men to act upon their grievances are much disturbed over the present outlook. The stand taken by the three representatives of the oporators, in refusing to recognize the credentials of the miners' represent atives, on the ground that the non union men were not given a voice in the selection, is lookod upon raerety as a pretext to aggravate the situation and to give the miners considerable unneces sary trouble. A dozen or more serious strikes are threatened because of the action of the representatives of the operators In throw ing technicalities in the face of settle ment of tho grievances. The rights of men to refer the appointment of their representatives on the Conciliation Hoard to the executive boards of tho three districts of the union are also at Issue. For the past few weeks the three dis trict presidents have made personal ap peals to the toeu with vital grievances to withhold'action, pending the decision of the Conciliation Board, before which it was proposed to lay them at an early date. The delay occasioned by President Baer In the Beading's announcement of the operators' appointments, coupled with tho indirect refusal of several com panies to guarantee an increase in wages growing out of tho advanced prices received for coal at tidewater in accordance with tho Strike Commission's award (which made it possible for the miners to share in tho profits accruing from a rise in the market), first occa- sioned general unrest. Then came the action of the oper ators* representatives in refusing to ac cept the credentials of the miners' rep resentatives on the board, on tho ground that they do not represent tho local or ganizations at the various collieries. Under those conditions there have gathered clouds far more dense than those noted before tbo big strike. The miners take the view that tho op erators have violated the conditions im posed by tho award of President Roose velt's commission, and that they will be justified in resorting to any drastic measure to meet the situatiou. The action of tho operators' represen tatives In refusing to meet the district FREELAND, PA., MONDAY, JUNE 1, 1903. presidents has intensified the feeling of discontent, and an outbreak may occur at any time. After their return from the conference with President Mitchell at Buffalo It Is expected that the district loaders will call the exocetive boards into a confer ence at Wilkesbarre on Tuesday and take definite steps looking toward a set tlement of the threatening difficulties. YESTERDAYS CONFERENCE. President John Mitchell, of the Unit ed Mine Workers of America, held a c >nferenca at Buffalo yesterday with the three miners' representatives on the recently organized Board of Conciliation. With disputes piling up and no means of settlement in sight the miners again turned to Mr. Mitchell for advice and yesterday's conference was the result. "I hope for an amicable outcome to various disputes now pending in the an thracite coal regions," said Mr. Mitchell after the conference, which lasted four hours. "Some of them are of consider able Importance. The miners think certain operators are not living up to the provisions of the award made by President Roosevelt's commission. None of the cases involved attempt to lower the actual rate of wages, but things have been so changed that the miners cannot make as much money as former ly. It Is a question of the interpreta tion of certain parts of the award." Weddings of the Week. At Bethlehem at 4 o'clock this after noon the marriage of VV. Guy Sensen bach, editor of the Progress, and Miss Carolyn Wuenshe. of Bethlehem, will be solemnized at the home of the bride's parents, Rev. aud Mrs. Wuenshe. The ceremony will be performed by Rev.

BASE BALL Owing to inclement weather only one of the two games scheduled to be played by the Tigers and Drifton came off at the local park on Saturday. The wet grounds made it impossible to play In the morning, but the diamond* and field were in good condition for the afternoon contest, which was won by the Tigers by a score of 18 to 13 * VanAken and Gallagher were the battery for the home team and did good work. The visitors started out with McGlnty and Boyle, but the former gave way in the second inning to Baskin. The fielding on both sides was not up to the standard. An audience of over 000 was present and Burgess Martin opened the game. At McAdoo yesterday afternoon the Tigers easily defeated the representa tive club of that town by a score of 12 to 4. Reed and Gallagher were the Tigers battery. The Freeland boys outplayed their opponents at every point of the game. The Highflyers defeated the Merry wells yesterday by a score of 8 to 2.

Atkinson, of Philadelphia. lie is a dentist. Judges of superior court, Charles Hey drlck, Erie, aud Halfreid Leach, Pitts burg. Memorial Day in Town. Freeland's observance of Memorial Day was not up to the standard estab lished by the celebtatlons of former years. This was partly accounted for by the heavy downpour of rain in the morning, which dampened the spirits of many who intended to assist In making the demonstration a creditable affair. The ranks of the societies which par ticipated in the parade were not as well filled as they should have been, and this portion of the celebration was not a success. At Freeland cemetery the order of exercises was carried out as announced in previous issues, and the program was fulfilled to the letter. The Tigers picnic at the Public park during the afternoon and evening was largely attended and the large crowd enjoyed itself as well as the damp ground and chilly weather would per mit. The field day exercises and races were declared off, on account of the weather. Deaths of Children. Annie Polka, aged (5 years, a daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Polka, of South Centre street, died at the Miners hospital yesterday morning.
