Mine Owners Call for Conference With Men in Strike Clash
Calumet Michigan July date. Governor Farris's plan for a conference in Lansing between copper mine operators and strikers is rejected by mine managers who oppose any recognition of the Western Federation of Miners.

Sentries report threats, stone-throwing, and one wounding at Isle Royale, amid a tense security situation and possible withdrawal of troops if talks fail.
