DIFFER ON WORKING TIME
Miners and Operators In Conferenct
at Seattle.
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 Is withdrawn.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.
CENTKAXJA, Wash.. Aug. 17. (Special.)
Montzer Bros., of Tenlno, have com
menced the erection of a new mill to re
place the one destroyed by fire a short
time ago. The new mill will have a ca
pacity of 125.000 feet of lumber a day, and
will be modern in every respect. It Is
expected that the mill will be cutting Its
own lumber In about 90 days, although
the mill will not be completed in less than,
four or five months
PORTLAND CONCERN BIDS
Offer of Warren Company for Pav
ing at Centralla.
CENTRALIA. Aug. 17. (Special.) At a
meeting of the Ctty Council -held this
week the bids for paving Tower avenue
with a bltullthic pavement were called
for. There was only one bid, namely,
from the Warren Construction Company,
of Portland. The company agrees to do
the work for 156.452.20. This is nearly 20
per cent higher than the City Engineer's
estimate, that being $45,572. The only
time stipulation was that the work shall
be finished before next July. A repre
sentative of the company stated that the
bid was the lowest price that the work
could be done for. The Council will prob
ably accept the bid. as the price of pav
ing is evidently going up.
