The operators also asserted that additional ~ organized mines in the New River ard Kanawha districts in that ' State, were expected to open trday. In the great bituminous fields of Pennsylvania, Qhio, Indiana, and Illinois, the miners were apparently determined to remain idle un- til a settlement of the controversy over wages and hours is reached by the con- ference at Washington of operators and officials of the United Mine Workers of America.
