This action was taken at a session of the Senate held for the sole purpose ad vancing first-reading bills.
The session was Bhort, but few members attending, and was the first occasion of two meetings in one day this session. The most important bill which -passed either house was the 'measure- formulated by the Senate Finance Committee increas ing the license taxes on dealers in intoxi cating It went through the upper house entirely without. opposition.

Toledo, Feb. 3. Hope of an amica ble adjustment was expressed by Thomas L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers, while acting as temporary chairman of the joint wage scale conference of the operators and miners of the Ohio, Indi ana and Pennsylvania district, which opened here this afternoon. He said I hope that we will proceed calmly, dis passionately and deliberately, and that we will be able to arrive at a proper and In telligent settlement of any differences ex isting." John H.
Jones, president of the Pitts burg-Buffalo Coal Company, and one of the principal operators present, expressed a be-J ner tnat a peaceable agreement will be reached and a strike avoided. After a disposition of preliminary busi ness the conference adjourned until tomor row morning to await the report of the credentials committee, which deadlocked on the question of admitting the Illinois miners in the absence of the operators of that State. The miners arrived here at noon, after closing their convention at Indian apolis with an all-night session. A few scattering "noes" on the motion to make President Lewis temporary chairman of the conference were the only echo of the controversy just finished in the miners' con vention. President Lewis made an unqualified declaration for the repeal of "so-called anti-conspiracy laws which, he said, circ*mscribed the operators, so that they "con stantly dread being dragged Into the courts.
He said that when the miners and operators get together for the uplifting of the Industry, there will be less risk of invest ment and more safety for the workmen. He said a demand should be made of the rail roads that they pay the mine owners more money for the coal they consume, that the mine owners might 6pend more money for the protection of their employes. There is an initial difference between miners and operators amounting to 20 cents a ton. The miners in their convention at Indian apolls made a demand for a wage increase from 90 cents to $1 a ton. While they have out formulated their demand, it has been generally understood that the operators want a decrease of 10 cents a ton, declaring an Increase impossible under existing circ*mstances.
Any agreement here will be a basis of settlement in all other bituminous districts. As the prime issue, theoperators, those of Ohio leading, are expected to force to some conclusion the 12 years project of organizing the non-union field of West Virginia as a preliminary to increasing or maintaining present They assert that they cannot continue to compete with the West Virginia operators and that the non-union fields of Kentucky and West Virginia are also becoming a strong factor in this competition. The demands include an absolute eight-hour day, time-and-a-half for overtime, holidays and Sundays and a two-year Ohio mine operators signed a memorial to be presented to the officials 6f the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad asking for as good car service as that eaid to be. furnished West Virginia. It Is said that a committee will visit Baltimore for this purpose immediately after the close of the wage conference, and that if this move falls, the operators contemplate laying their grievances before the Federal Government.
