CINCINNATI. O.. March 3.—The
refusal of tbe operators to grant the
demands of the United Mine Workers
for an Increase and an eight-hour
work day, at the i>i>enlng of the Joint
conference today, will affect the
Eastern and Middle States. The de
cision of tho operator» surprised the
unionists, as the leaders had predict
ed peace. Should tbe conference be
unable to agree a great strike will
probably tie up the bituminous coal
regions. A former conference on
similar question» recently held at
Toledo resulted In a deadlock. The
trouble will probably spread to the

committees of both organizations art
