FEDERATION ISSUE RAISED Managers Say Union's Sole Object , Was to Force Itself on Kmployes, 11 Company and State Men Fa- or Compulsory Arbitration. KL, PASO, Tex., Oct. 23. Conferences here between the managers of the cop per mines In the Clifton district of Arizona and representatives of the striking miners were abandoned today as hopeless. Formal statements were Issued by both sides. The mine man agers charged failure to the Western Federation of Miners. The miners say the conference was "farcical" from the beginning and that the managers never Intended to bring about a settlement. "With unvarying persistency," says the managers' statement, "the destruc tive influence of the "Western Federa tion of Miners has attended each de velopment of the situation which the Federation agitators forced upon the community that la now stricken. "The recently concluded conferences between the mine managers and the - wtrtkers committee suDDlled the final links of evidence, which proved that the western federations sole object was to force its organization upon em. ployes, mine managers and the State of Arizona. At these conferences the Federation's demands Invariably were woven into the Issues to such an ex tent that the mine managers were dow- erless to act in the interests of their old employes. Men W arned Against Union. "The mine managers called commit tees of their old employes for confer ences, the committees to be chosen from the various mining departments by the men themselves.. These committees met Tne three mine managers in Clifton on August 28. They were told that no Rood would come of affiliation with the Western Federation of Miners, that the companies reaffirmed tTTeir policy of advancing wages when conditions warranted such increase. Advances en Joyed by the men in the past would be amplified in the future, but such changes could not be arranged while the existing agitation of the Western .federation of Miners prevailed and nnne tne agitators and organizers re tnained in the district." The miners, in their statement, de clare the situation clearly demonstrates the necessity of compulsory arbitration laws. The strike, the statement de clares, is costing employes of the dis trict and the stockholders about $10,000 an nour. i ney add: "Under a fair proposition for settle went, the mines miirht resume nnnra. tlons tomorrow.
