Miners' arbitration plan proposed by Mitchell group
The miners and operators met to consider arbitration to settle wage and employment disputes. A board of arbitration chaired by Judge George Gray or his appointee would issue a final, binding decision effective from April 1, 1906 to March 31, 1908, with workers to resume work pending the decision. Judge Gray declined comment on serving as umpire. Separately, William H. Woods of Brighton pledges not to raise coal prices while wholesale dealers hold prices steady, detailing his actions and pricing in Boston markets.
