Miners Cease Their Labors, | operatives, WORK MAY BE STOPPED ONLY A | FEW WEEKS. | DIFFERS FROM STRIKE Wen Will Be Left in Mines to Proteot Them Against Flooding—Referendum Vote of Bituminous Miners. Indianapoiis, Ind., March 3(—Noand thracite or bituminous coal will be taken from the mines of the country fomotrow by union miners, as a result | of the suspension which weut into fect at midoight tonight, due.to diffe ences over wages. Move than 400,000 miners, about 160,000 in the anthracite fleld and 266,000 in the bituminous, will take a vacdtion, which probably will last only a few weels. The cessation of work will be different ¥rom a striice, in that the miners will leave pump men and others at work to protect the mines from flooding or other treu- Dle due to a shutdown of the plants. Vote by Soft Coal Miners. The bituminous miners will be out only long enough for the wage agree- ment, which was reached in Cleveland, to be ratified by the miners by a refer- endum vote, for it is belleved the oagreement wiil be sanctioned by a large majority of the men. The sus- pension in the anthracite mines will be of longer duration, as no agreement has yvet been reached between the min- ers and operators. Over Two Weeks Required for Vote. Ballots for the referendum vote by the bituminous miners, it is sald, will be sent out from the national miners’ headquarters in this city as soon as| the nationa] president, John P. White, | and the other officials return here fm‘ Cleveland. It will take more than two weeks to take the vote, because | not all of the locals meet every week. Anthraoite Settlement Expected. Now that the bituminous miners and | ol have agreed on a wage con- tract for the next two years, it is be- | lieved the controversy in the anthra- | cite fields soon will be settled when | the miners and operators get together in Philadelphia. The demands made by both branches of the coal miners were somewhat similar, and it is ! thought the anthracite forces will com- | promise on practically the same terms | as have been agreed to in the bitum- | | inous industry. | Southern Miners May Work. The suspension does not aftect all of the mines in the south, as the unicn is not so sirong south of the Ohio river as it is In the northern states. It 1s said the miners will lose $1,000,000 ev- ery day they remain out, and that the suspension will cause a loss in coal production to the country of nearly 43,000,000 tons a month.
