NEW YORK — (By the Asso
ciated Press) — Weary of the
Sherman anti-trust law and mind
ful of indictments still pending in
the Indiana court of U. S. District
VJudge A. B. Anderson, union
chiefs and coal operators on the
second day of their conference,
here indicated they would “wait
for advice from the Federal coal
commission" before proceeding-
to negotiate a new wage scale
hasqd on the tri- state competitive
field they mapped out Thursday.
These indictments loomed big.
Apparently they were the only ob
Stacies to an early signature of
basic contracts covering 180,000,-
000 tons of annual production in
Indiana and Illinois—enough to
control wages throughout the oth
er 64 per cent of, the bituminous
mines in the nation with their an
nual output of 320,000.000 tons.
After more than a year of con
troversy, five months of which
was actual strike, owners and
workers had agreed Thursday, in
one short session, upon the tri
state competitive field base.
Wages were not expected to be
come a contention, since both
sides favored continuation of the
existing' scales
All that remained in doubt was
whether the United mine workers
of America would be able to win
its demand that the pact extend
over two years, with the opera
tors insisting on a one year con
tract. In the meantime, the con
ferees had expected to hear from
the National coal commission at
Washington. Approval, would be
taken to mean that the adihnistra
tion sanctions competitive efild
agreements 1 between the union
and operating groups; that the
anti-trust indictments in Judge
Anderson’s court might not be pro
secuted. For the commission to
disapprove would be interpreted*
adversely with new indictments,
possible or prosecution of the
dormant ones.
It was generally understood that
until the Federal coal commission
indicated its attitude by signing
the conference here would pro
ceed to a point of actually signing
Contracts arid then mark time.
The operators particularly have
emphasized their weariness of a
second experience with the Sher
man law.
The first business before the
convention Friday was to be the
presentation by the miners of de
mands they want incorporated in
the new- agreement. The princi
pal one, they have disclosed, is
the two year clause. Others were
characterized by the leaders as
already well known or of relative
ly small importance. Operators
are expected to receive the de
mands and caucas, returning with
the proi>osed counter demands.
Negroes Arrested
For Resisting. Law
Gus Hill and Willie Freeman,
colored, were lodged in the Clarke
county jail Thursday on a charge
of interfering with an officer of
the law. Dr. C. C. Strickland,
I newly elected bailiff of the dis
trict, went down on “smoky row”
I to serve a dispossessory warrant
{and the two made threats that
j prevented * him from serving the
warrant and the arrests followed.
Bail fer the two negroes was
placed at $500 each and they are
still in jail awaiting a hearing or
someone to sign the bond.

MIDDLING 28 HC
The highest point of the season
in the local cotton ,market was
reached Friday when the close
middling grade was quoted at 28
1-4 cents a pound. Many cotton
men are predicting thirty cents a
pound cotton on the strength of
the advances that have been made
within the past few days and the
new high levels that are being
reached regularly.
The quotation of 28 1-4 cents a
pound. Friday represented an ad-
vnace of a quarter of a cent pound,
or $1.25 a bale over the quotation
.of Thursday, which was 28 cents a
} pound.
NEW YORK COTTON
NEW YORK — The increasing
activity of the British textile in
dustry was the dominating factor
in the cotton market again at the
opening Friday. The cables re
ported a continued increase in the
Manchester turnover with pros
pects for a good business with
both India and China and private
advices said there had been fur
ther sales of spot cotton in the
Liverpool market to Russia. The
market here opened steady at un
changed prices to an advance of
12 points with all the old crop
months* selling up to or above the
28 cent level in response to higher
cables. There was heavy realiz
ing at 2S.15 for March and 28.40
for May but it was absorbed on
slight setbacks • and the market
held very steady during the early
trading. New England Mill in
terests are reported buyers here
at the opening while there was also
buying for Liverpool and Japanese
account.
Disposition to take profits for
over the week end seemed to be
Increased by reports of unsettled
weather in Northwest Texas with
min at Sulphur Springs and a bet
ter outlook for the breaking of
the drought. These groups were
particularly reflected by the course
of October contracts which sold
off to 26.35 or 15 points net lower
while May worked 11 points lower
to 28.17. Except for realizing,
very little pressure was in evi
dence however, and the undertone
of the market was steady af noon
when trading was oompar.vilely
quiet and prices showed rallies
of several points from the lowt.st
The market firmed up again
during the early afternoon on
bullish week-end figures and' cov
ering by early sellers for a reac
tion. Prices made new ' high
ground for the day and season
with May selling at 28.45, around
2 o’clock or about 13 to 17 pbints
higher. r. .
