SEATTLE, Aug. 17. (Special.) Coal-producing corporations have sub mitted an alternative wage scale to the United Mine Workers, ottering to advance the wages of the men in the mines and to grant concessions in working conditions if the demand for an eight-hour day, based on the time the men enter the shaft. Is withdrawn. The operators' wane scale differs ma terially from the one presented by the union, but the average wage advance Is pretty close to the 15 per cent demand of .the United Mine Workers. The op erators have adopted a different pol icy of griding the men, and It Is over this question that the conference be tween the miners and the operators spent their time. It it declared positively that the' op erators will not agree to the eight hour rule proposed by the union. Tho mine ownera fought a similar proposal when it was made to the Legislature last Winter, and declared today that the acceptance of the miners' wage scale will mean the reduction of the coal output by fully 25 per cent, and would compel the operators to abro gate contracts for a big percentage of their output. Coal prices would also have to be advanced to meet the new conditions. The miners insist that the day shall commence at the time the men enter the ehafthouse, and that they shall be brought out of .the mine on company time. The operators today insisted that they will continue to recognize an eight-hour day, but time shall be computed from the minute the men reach the face of the workings, and that they shall remain at work taking out coal for eight hours. The companies do not concede the right of the men to a half hour for lunch on cbmpany time. With both, the miners' demands and the operators' alternatives before the conference, it is expected the question will be fought out and that a compro mise will be effected. The miners and operators expect to spend at least one moro week in conference before a wage schedule is signed. - Should the miners stand firm on their two demands, it is declared the oper ators will refuse to grant them, and danger of a serious strike. will occur. In anticipation of trouble or an ad vance in coal, heavy orders. for fuel are being placed, and many of the dealers and consumers are preparing to carry a big stock. - - Xew 31111 Replaces One Burned.
