Observers of labor union develop ment are noting, as a result of the re cent wage conference at Indianapolis, that at last the millionaire trade union has appeared. It lias just closed its first deal, as a millionaire labor con tractor, to man the bituminous coal mines of the country for one j’ear at an advauce of $50,000,000 in wages over the last year. The increase took effect the 1st of April. In round num bers 2(54,000 workers, not all of them members of the organization, share in the increase. The organization that has obtained such a settlement from the centralized bituminous coal interests of the coun try is the United Mine Workers of America, the first American labor union to become a millionaire in its treasury fund and lay plans to become a multi millionaire. It not only contracts for 264,000 men in the bituminous mines, but it wields the destiny of 400,000 hu man 1 M*ings in and around the mines of the country and of 1,000,000 more human beings in the miners’ homes. The $50,000,000 increase is based on the settlement reached in “ the Indi anapolis conference,” which began Jan. 29 and ended in the bituminous opera tors of the Pittsburg district, Ohio, In diana and Illinois signing a scale pro viding for increase in wages that aver age 16» * per cent. The men who had in their hands this supply of vitality realized that failure to reach an agreement meant a strike April 1 that would shut down at least all of tiie largest bituminous coal mines of the country. They knew that if these bituminous mines wore closed the industrial world, which was down to the daily production of the mines, would come to a complete standstill within four weeks at tiie longest; that millions of people would he affected, national calamity would be imminent and that the people would forever crush the party held responsible for the paralysis by quickly formed public sentiment. The representatives of the operators, realizing that demands of the miners for advances in keeping with increased cost of living would arouse public sentiment, which was already sot against tiie operators, offered an ad- vance of 10 per cent. The minors demanded 25 per cent and threatened to appeal to the public with a strike and lay before the peo ple, who had paid double prices for coal, the alleged enormous profits that had been realized l>y operators taking advantage of the coal shortage. A tidal wave threatened. By slow degrees the operators advanced conees- slons up to 16» -j per cent. “That is all. We can go before the people if you turn down a 1644 per cent advance." was their ultimatum, ami they stmsl firm. Mitchell realized that public senti ment is as shifting sand. He was not disposed to risk lasing its sympathy. Which, notwithstanding Its million treasury and army of workers, was the miners’ greatest asset. He said lie would report the offer hack to the 700 delegates. In a long session of the miners be hind guarded doors heated protests were made against acceptance. Mitch ell laid before the protesting delegates wh.ntg refusal mount He mtotmt wit u id i iu e puouc wouia not siop to con sider technical objections; that in spite of paralytic effect it would frame its decision and pledge support on the basis of tiie 16*4 per cent. A t the end of three hours Mitchell’s counsel pre vailed. The public bad been an effective arbiter. A $.50,000,000 increase scale was signed.—E. L. Lewis in Collier’s Weekly.
