In accordance with an agreement reached last night, operators were ex- pected today to order superintendents of certain anthracite mines to come New York for instructions as to employment of union men for main- tenance of property while the strike is on. This action was taken, Mr. Murray said, in response to charges that the mine officials were discharging un- jon employes left in the mines as pump men, engineers, firemen and stock men, to replace them with non- union salaried foremen. Operators contend that violation of such pro- visions of the maintenance agree- ments were due to failure of superin- tendents to understand orders. aera ai, c RAL FIRST NINE WI The Central grade first team de- feated the second nine of the same school, 18 to 2, in a game played yes- terday.
