CAL PEAE WATS (UPON CONVENTION - WF TE MINES Union Leaders Seek Instruc- @ons but Keep Way to Pur- “ther Negotiations Open. DO NOT EXPECT STRIKE. Miners Will Meet on May 14 to Act Upon the Compro- mise Offered. ‘There te no possibility of a strike tn the anthracite coal region of Pennsyl- ‘ama before the convention, decided pen yesterday by the Minera’ General ‘ Conference Committee, is held and the Gonference Committes has returned to New York to reopen negotiations with the operators, according to Senator William B. Green, acting for Preal- Gent John P. White. “The committee witi go to Wilkes Barre to receive instructions,” said Mr Sar. last night before leaving for the Facite fields. ‘That convention “way instruct us to accept the com- Promise agreement recommended by the Joint sub-committees, but refused by the general committee of the miners. Again, it may instruct us to ask for eertain further concessions, such a8 the sliding scale, further recognition of 1 the union or a shorter term contract, or } all three. "We have not broken off negotiations. Im fect, we adjourned the Joint confer- ence last Thursday s@ernoon subject to a call for another meecitg, This be- Ing the case, the most t! vention can do will be to instruct the general committee to demand certain things, and failing to get them to issue an ultl- matum to the operators and declare a atrike. ‘Phe convention ts going to do nothing eo abrupt and discourteous as to declare @ strike before every effort has been made to get the operators to see things our way. WAY FOR NEGOTIATION STILL KEPT OPEN. “Ae a matter of fact, the operators ‘have not sald they would not make fur- they had nothing to suggest. Their at- we could not dec! strike without @t least one more conferonce with them without forfelting pudiic sympathy. 4 “The convention canont assume that the operators would not grant further concessions rather than have the miners strike until they have replied to an ‘uftimatum from us, stating that we will strike unless we get them.” GPollowing a meetig of the Miners’ Conference Committee together with the Tri-district Executive Board at the Barlington Hotel yesterday afternoon, at “which it was decided to put the ‘whole question up to @ convention to be hela 14 at Wilkes-Barre for instric- tions eting President Green made the following formal statement: “There seems to be a wrong impres- lon prevailing with respect to the work and authority of the Joint sub-commit- tee of four operators and four miners. They were appointed by the full com- mittee of twenty, with power to make retommendations only, Tho statement by Mr. Baer at the meeting at Phila- Welphia, suggesting the sub-committee, makes this perfectly platn. Our general committee has not approved the sub- committee's recommendation, Now we will hold a convention of the Anthracite Mino Workers at Wilkes-Barre on May M, at which thne the entire matter will o submitted to them. Our future course will be decided then. We have not Broken off negotiations with the opera- tors, but expect to meet again and hope to reach an agreement.” ‘The operators also issued a statement fn which they repeated much of what they said on Thursday and intimated nt that they expected the committce to persuade the convention to accept the : compromise agreement, ‘The operatora refrained carefully from closing negotlat! however, and are still open to a susgestion from the miners and another conference to dis une ft. CONVENTION WILL DECIDE COURSE OF ACTION. ‘The convention at Wilkes-Barre will De attended by one or more delegates fram each local in the anthracite fleld and will be participated in by 800 to 1,000 delegates. ‘While it is admitted that there is a radical element among the miners which wilt want trouble, the Conference Com- tittee believes the convention will be Wominated by the cooler heads and the worst that can como of it will be in- structions to the committee to secure certain things or Issue a strike ultl- matum. The three things which it is be- fieved will be demanded will be the 10 per cent. flat increase, offered with the addition of the sliding scale of 1 er cent, increase on the miner's earnings for every five-cent advance fn the price at tilewater above $4.50 ® ton for coal, and at least a modified ‘crm of the “check-out system,” by which the operators will hold out of a the union dues of the workers, ‘thug forcing about 140,000 men benefit by the agreement to support the union, whether they want to or not.

And Yet, You Grouchy Wives, Alimony Ie But a Sort of Old Age Pen- sion, an Indemnity for Superannuated Sex Attractions. By Nixola Greeley-Smith. “Women have to be loved. They muat have atten- tion paid them. 4 woman won't stand for nep- lect. This causes) half of the do- meastio troudles of the country. The average man is too much wrapped up in work. He leaves the woman a practical prisoner in her home and, of course, she cultivates a ‘grouch.’" In these words Judge .Newcomer of Chicago's Court of Domestic Re- lations sentenced a husband ar raigned before him to take a week off from his business and begin an- other courtship of his wife. “Little dinners, theatres and flow ers,” formed part of the judicial pro- gramme of courtship as outlined by the learned Chicago Justice. And if. some Now York Solon will adopt the prescription and apply {t to the neg- lected wives who appear as complain- ants before him ho will find himself | suddenly and exceedingly popular. For the Chicago rectpe sounds ex- tremely well. It presents just one dim- culty to those who delve below its swect and plausible surface, namely this: HOW CAN HE LAY OFF AND MAKE MONEY? If a man takes a week off from his Dusiness to devote himself to taking his wite to the theatre, ‘Sittle suppers. &c,, where is he to got the money for the tickets and the meat {t out of the savings’ bank, cago jurist might reply, but so many of us haven't any savings bank ac- counts, And of course the problem suggests another question. Tf a man's wife didn't care eo much for ttle suppers, theatres &o., would he have to make so much money? Con- sequently would he bo “so much wrapped up in his work that he leaves; the woman a practloal prisoner in her own home? And if the wife cultivated economy a little more, would she “cul- tlvate a grouch” so much? I don’t mean that wives ought to in- dulgo in the comte opera folly of going to market with baskets on thelr arms. After all, a wife's time should be worth a little more than that of the delivery boy with which carrying home her purchases may enable the merchants to dispense. BUSINESS OF BEING A WOMAN IS A MISTAKE. But, in my opinion, “half the domeatic troubles of the countr; which Judge Newcomer attributes to “neglectful hus- bands” are due to a general ferhinine acceptance of Miss Ida Tarbell’s frank and brutal phrase “the business of being @ woman.” “Being © woman should not be ® business. Because women have made it #0 for centuries, because #0 many of them still refuse to see that they must take up the white woman's burden of self- support, they cultivate “nerves,” “grouches” and xeglectfal hus- bands. At least three-quarters of the women in the United States marry with the notion that they are, so many shrinking Iphigenias, permitting themselves to be sacrificed on the altar of man's love, I have to call it love in deference to what they consider refinement. Inol- dentally, I believe that if these women could get a faint perception of the crass vulgarity of what they term finement” in themselves and othe: that most depraved word in the lish language could be stamped from their minds and burnt out of the dlc tionary, there would be an immediate betterment of marital conditions throughout the country, If we have any doubt of the attitude of the strangely condescending and re- luctant wife, let us consider the phrase with which she most commonly describes her husband's conduct; withered flower.” Of course, she Has had ten years of her husband's life—the same ten years she has given him. Of course, he has had just as time to wither as she, but nothing, that’s diferent. And the same “refinement” which prompts her to discuss her most intimate domestic relations with two dosen women friends permite her to go iuto court amd ask for alimony. Specifically eliminating amounts paid for the maintinance of minor children—and no one disputes that Hi sam mv sid nity for superannuated sea attrac- tone? And yet, perfectty “refined women clamor for it and, even try to put their former husbands in jail for not paying them a sex pension or hale them before & judge after the fashion of the Chicago woman whose husband has just been ordered to court her over again. ‘With what youthful ardor, passionate pursuits he will be able to infuse his love-making by order of court! Nevertheless, his wife may like it. So many women, even when they know that Love is dead, like to have him em- balmed or as in this instance get an order of court for the exhumation of the body. But rolling Cupid on a barrel to inance respiration has never been much of # success. Perhaps Chicago's judicial specialist may have better tact. Let's hope #0, anyway. —_——___ RECORD FOR PUNCTUALITY ‘LED TO SAVING HIS LIFE. Ship Fireman Failed to Return on Time and Searchers Find Him Injured in Dock. Wiliam Fitzgerald owes his life to his record for punctuality. He is twen- ty-two and a fireman on the steamship Florizel, now lying in the d:y dock at the foot of Dwight etreet, Erie Basin, Brooklyn. When he did not return from leave at midnight his comrades ‘Were #0 surprised at an occurrence #0 unusual with him that they began a search for him, About 1.30 o'clock this morning they found him half dead at the bottom of the dock. Fitzgerald left the vessel about 9 o'glock for an evening ashgre and was to be back at 12. His comrades had been hunting for him about an hour when Robert De Mars, @ watchman, suggested a search of the dock on the chance that the young fireman had slipped off the narrow gangplank con- necting the ship with the dock edge. ‘There was two feet of water on the bottom of the dock and Fitzgerald was iscovered sitting in it with @ sprained ankle and other injuries sustained in his twenty-five-foot fall, but suffering chiefly from immersion, Had he been fn the water much longer he would have died, Dr. Lesser said, as he hur- ried with him to the Long Island Col- lege Hospital.
