Washington Connor Writes of the
Situation.
He Suggests that Capital and Labor
Unite. ? Miners, Operators and
Railroads Should Fix Prices
, and Wages and Make a
Binding Agreement.
During tho past two years thcro has
been severe competition in the bitumi?
nous coal trade, resulting iu a reduction
in the price of coal to a point where
there was but little profit for the rail
toads which carried it. tho mine owners
and operators who produced it or for the
miners whose wages wore dependent
^tipou tho price received for coal. Those
three largo interests have alike suffered
from a warfare which has been both
foolish and needless.
Last March tho Ohio railroads aurl
operators took tho initiative toward
bringing about a settlement of tho diffi?
culty by tho formation of an alliance
between tho operators and tho coul car?
riers for tho purposo of securing better
results for all parties in interest, to es?
tablish uniform rates on tho railroads,
secure stability of prices for the coal
and through these means prevent tiny
fnrthor redaction in the pay of the min?
ers and ultimately to increase their
wages as tho price of coal was advanced.
The Ohio Coal association, which wns
formed last March, is well organized
for this work ami secures noity of ac?
tion in the Ohio district. That its for?
mation was a wise stop cannot be ques?
tioned. Tho railroads fur over a year,
owing to tho fierce competition which
existed, had beon cutting prices from l'O
to 40 por cent below Holiodnlo ratos.
This organization bus auccocdcd in re?
storing rates to tho established sched?
ule and by so doing will add from 20 to
40 per cent to the net revenue of tho
roads which belong to it on ull tho coal
they carry.
An obstacle to keeping up t he miners'
wagos has recently boon encountered by
the action of tho Pennsylvania anil West
Virginia operators, who have been per?
sistent iu trying to drive the pay of
? miners to the lowest possible point.
When the p eat strikt-of 1894 was set
tlod, an agreement was laude that tho
miners should receive 00 cents pur ton
in Ohio and 69 cents per ton in Penn?
sylvania. The Ohio operators have faith?
fully lived up to their agreement and
paid 00 cents throughout the year, not?
withstanding that during that time they
know tho Pittsburg district had violated
its agreement and was underselling Ohio
in the market, which it was able to do
on account of paying lower wages to tho
minors.
There has boon established for yearn n
differential of 9 cents per ton between
tho Ohio and Pittsbiu-g districts in the
prico paid tho minor. This is tho result
of n difference in the size of screens used
in tho two districts. If both districts
used the same sized screens, the wages
for miners would be the same, but so
long ao this is not the case the differen?
tial must bo maintained.
The Pittsburg operators having been
successful iu reducing the pay of a large
number of their minors during the year
1894, owing to the great nnnibor of un?
employed, nl-o this year opposed to a
restoration to tho juices agreed upon in
1894. Tho result is that, while the Ohio
operators arc in favor of either continu?
ing the wages of last year or i veil ad?
vancing to higher prices, they am unable
to carry out their wishes, but must es?
tablish a rato per ton which will be 9
cents less than that paid in the Pitts
burg district, tho 9 cents being tho dif?
ferential which I have referred to.
There, are times when capital justly
oomplaius that it has not been fairly
troatcd by labor. There c:m bo no such
complaint made by the Pittsburg opera?
tors. In this instance it is labor that has
been mndo to suffer through the short
sighted selfishness of a few individuals
and corporations.
In 1892 West Virginia, Pennsylvania
and Ohio worked under an interstate
agreement. Miners were then receiving
in Ohio 70 cents per ton and in Penn?
sylvania 79 cents por ton. Tho railroads
obtained satisfactory rates for the trans?
portation of coal, and tho operators and
mine owners made more money than
they have any time since. Tho results
of this agreement and combination were
bo beneuoinl and satisfactory to all in?
terests that it is impossible to lind a
reaeou why tho samo policy should not
have been carried out in tho following
year 3.
Tho present situation could bo greatly
Improved by extending an interstate or?
ganization so that it would include tho
Illinois and Indiana districts. Such a
combination should not bo looked upon
as a trust, as it would In no sense bo
one and would not bo formed to advance
prices, but only to maintain uniform
prices in tho various districts.
There would bo jnBt as much sense in
some of tho street railways of Now York
cutting down their fares to 3 cents for
the purposo of taking business away
from other liucs as there is in tho cut?
ting of tho prices at which coal is sold
or reduciug the wages paid to the min?
ers. With tho street railways it would
?imply result in forcing the other lines
to mako a similar reduction. Tho effect
is the sanio in the coal trade. The man?
agers of tho street railway* have intel?
ligence enough to soo that a profitable
Iraaiueai can bo done only by tho main?
tenance of the C cent fare, fcioino of thu
?1 operators have not yet developed
bat amount of intelligence, J
' nlttte*. and womnutiejoHS S?$
i,v ? ??"JitVSft.itti..
even signed contracts cutting agreed
upon prices, uuoh contracts being given
under a pledge of secrecy, have been re?
sponsible for the low prices for bitumi?
nous coal for tho past two years.
When competition of this kind is once
started, it does not stop until it ap?
proaches the point of actual cost of pro?
duction, and this is generally followed
by an attempt to reduce wages so that
the competition may bo carried still fur?
ther.
It seems to uio that thorp is no busi?
ness in this country where the remedy
is so plain as in tho bituminous trade.
It is possible for oapitul and labor to
nnito in such a manner that both will
racwiva theit fair share of tho results.
There Is no question that tho yearly con?
flict is injurious to all concerned, and
there is likewise no question that thuso
yearly conflicts enn bo avoided.
It rests with tho conservative and in?
telligent men in the ranks of labor and
among the operators anil railroad muu
ugers to bring al>out an organization
which will prevent any trouble in tho
future. Snchiuj oi|rftnizatit)u ?houltl em?
brace West Viriinia. Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois. The Inter?
state association should fix the miners'
wages for tho minors in tho various
districts. It should also establish tho
price for cool and tho rates for carrying.
Thru iu each district there should be a
local organi*ntion, like that of the Ohio
Coal association, to take charge of ques?
tions which belong to that district alone,
suchas the staking of sales and contracts
and receiving the proceeds. This power
should be added to that which is already
possessed by the Ohio association.
Formerly there existed an interstate
orgunitvttioii embracing Pennsylvania,
Ohio. West Virgiuia, Indiana and Illi?
nois, and tho results were profitable to
all interested?i. o., tho r.iiltoads and
thpir employees, tho mine owners and
their employees.
Today the chief opposition to reviving
it foenvs to he tho Operators in Peunsyl
vania, who have openly declared them?
selves against any agreement either of
tho minoowiievsor organization of mine
labor.
A good commencement to an inter?
state agreement is found among the
jperators of Ohio, who scent to ho gen?
erally in favor of It, and who have made
frequent efforts during the past year
among the. Pennsylvania operators to re?
establish the interstate compact, because
it gave tho best returns to all concerned,
including labor. It was with this in
viow that tho Ohio operators faithfully
carried out tho 18H4 agreement, and in
the fuco of Pennsylvania having reduced
its labor to the lowost'point ever reached.
There should bo no difficulty iu arriv?
ing at an agreement with the national
miners' organization n.s to what would
be fair wages l'Or tho minors in tho va?
rious districts. Thon the agreement
should proviae a scale of wages for tho
miners which would advance and de?
cline with tho price of coal. I believe
that such a scale is in existence today in
Wales and has Iwon found to work to
the satisfaction of both the mine owner
and the miner. The Reading railroad
at one time worked under ench n system
and fouud it .satisfactory.
In Wald on auditing of tho sales
takes place every tit) days, and the aver?
age price determines the price paid the
minor. Tho books of the various associa?
tions should be open to tho inspection of
tho representatives of the railways, the
operators and the miners' organization,
so that there could be uo question as to
whether the agreement was being faith?
fully carried out.
The Ohio operators deserve great
credit for tho stand they have always
taken in favor of higher wages for the
miners and also for the honorable man?
ner in which they have lived up to the
agreement they have made with tho
miners'organisation. Iwi>.li I could say
u.s mnch for tho operators of the Pitts
burg district.
It Booms to tuo that the labor leaders
in tho minors' organization made n se?
rious mistake in 1SU-1 when, they ordered
ft strike not only in the district which
refused to pay tho wages demanded, but
also iu districts where tho operators
wore willing to concede what the min?
ers asked, and where they had always
received fair treatment. Had they at
that timo confined their strike to the
districts which insisted upon low wages
their expenses wonid< have been much
less, and they would hava hnd a larger
fund at their command by being able to
draw more heavily upon the miners who
would have been at work in t ho districts
which were not opposed to the rate then
demanded.
Tho rates which have always been
recognized as being fair between the va?
rious state* are to give the miners in Il?
linois, Indiana and Ohio the same pay,
while Pennsylvania and West Virginia
uro on tho same basis, w hich is il cents
higher per tun than the three states first
mentioned, it being estimated that on
account of the difforoilt sized screens
usod 0 miner can earn in a day's work
tho same amount of wages iu any of tho
states when this basis is maintained.?
