Confer ence Today With Little Hope of Agreement Operators Pre pare for Struggle. INDIANAPOLIS. March 56. The United Mineworkers of America, through John Mitchell, president of-the organization; T. Lewis, vice-president, and Herman G. Perry, of the Illinois miners, today pre sented to the coal operators in the execu tive session of the Joint scale committee of the central competitive district their ultimatum on the dispute over the wage Fcale. The demand of the miners, as stated in liidr ultimatum, is for a restoration of Jlie wape scale of 1903, which is an in wnso of 5.55 per cent. Upon the receipt t the ultimatum, the operators secured an adjournment of the committee until tomorrow, when it is expected a definite answer will be given. It is anticipated that this reply will be a refusal, and the committee will report a disagreement to ih joint conference of miners and opcra ter.. The fight in that case will be con tinued on the floor of the joint conven tion. Tcmiglit there is little prospect of an airroenient. The feeling tonight is that the miners under no circumstances will uliow one district to sign even the ad vance scale demanded unless it is paid In all the four states of the central com pelUlvo field. Reports are coming to the miners dcle cntejs from their local unions -at the coal companies are taking preliminary stps'to gn on a strike basis. They are calling in xhf miners account books, according to tcso reports, withdrawing credit from the miners at company" stores, pressing collections, and in some cases threatening eviction. Reports that the companies arc building stockades arc without founda tion, but the mines are being put In thn liest possible condition for a. shutdown. Hh-en should an agreement be reached for all fields, the bituminous and most of the anthracite mines will close Saturday night, many of them to remain closed for 60 days. The local managers are letting their man know this, and in many cases telling them that a strike may as well come as far as they arc concerned. Truck-drivers May Strike.
