that he could not get a certificate while

IT WILL HIT THE
RAILROADS HARD
Mitchell May Order Big Strike of Coal
Miners if Dem ands Are
Not Met.

Indianapolis, Ind. Nov. 20.-Presi-
dent John Mitchell of the United Mine
Workers Of America said that lndica-
tons are that he will order strike
of all union miners employed by Ihe
SusQuehanna Coal company of Nanti-
coke Penn, and those working for the
Missouri Pacific, Missouri, Kansas (.
Texas and Cotton Belt & Iron Mount
ain roads in Missouri, Kansas, Arkan-
Sas and the Southwestern states. Last
Friday he forwarded formal letter to
Marion Williams, vice president of the
that the labor troubles of the
union miners employed by the COM
pany must be settled at once. presi-
dent Mitchell demands that the COM
pany either treat with it's own EN-
ployes or the representatives Of the
Union Mine Workers.
The trouble is not over wage scale,
but grew out of an order making the
miners round up their boxes with
coal.
Two of the Southwestern companies
TO whom the demands were sent have
replied, declining conference. They
are the Southwestern Fuel and I'M
Pacific Fuel company of ST. Louis.
In answer to those replies, President
Mitchell telegraphed:
The executive board instructs me to
say that unless a conference Is agreed
TO and fair terms of settlement accept
ed, all mines on the Missouri, Kansas
& Texas, Cotton Belt and Iron Mount
ain employing union labor Will be shut
down.
President Mitchell says:
I'VE will not finch from our posi-
ton. The anthracite fields of Pennsyl-
vania employ about 100000 men and our
strike, if ordered. will affect about 49,
600 or 10000 men, or over 10 per cent
The effect would be widespread, owing
to the unusual demands for anthracite
fuel everywhere. The Pennsylvania
railroad will be hit hard blow and
cannot say how many others will be
affected. The Southwestern strike
would bring about 5000 men out. I
will give the Susquehanna time enough
to answer by letter" .
President Mitchell this afternoon de-
cided to hold a conference in St. Louis
Thursday with the union coal operators
of the Belleville. ILL.,, district for the
purpose of cutting off all shipments Of
fuel by them to the railroad companies
involved in the contemplated South
western strike

: WAR REPORT.
1t VIII Be Kept Open to Await Philip
pine Developments


Washington, Nov. 2O.--The secretary
of war spent more than two hours with
the president to-day discussing his an
nuai report. on which report will be
based some of the most important sec
tons of the presidents message to
congress. 1t is understood that this
section will be held open as long as
possible awaiting developments in the
Philippine situation, which may change
the status of the situation almost any
day. The other sections of the message
are nearly completed, but to finish
the message before congress meets will
call for a large amount of hard work.
Owing to this fact it Is probable the
president will not be able to go to
Nashville to participate in the well
come home Of the Tennessee regiment
No definite determination has been
made, however If the trip is under
taken it will be made in the briefest
practicable time. There were a num-
Der of callers at the white house SEN
Rtor Plat Joined the president during
the 1atter's morning walk and came to
the white house with him. Secretary

return from the West. With him was
Senator Lodge, who had quite a long
visit with the president Senator Gull

Referred to by General Worthy Foreman
Chamberlain of Colorado.

Boston, Nov. 2o.-At this mornings
session of the general assembly of the
knights of Labor, General Worthy
Foreman /. D. Chamberlain of Colo
RADIO submitted his report in which he
referred to the achievements of the or
ganization and the hostility ercoun-
tered by its members. Two years ago,
he said. had some agitator proclaimed
that men walking quietly in the public
highways in broad daylight would be
shot down officially and that the chief
executive would send an assistant at
torney general of the republic and use
the power of the administration to de-
fend the murderers, he would have
been classed as a lunatic, and the man
who would have dared to predict the
horrors of the Wardner bull pen would
have been treated as an enemy Of the
republic.
On the subject of com bines the report
said that 1t was question how long it
would require the so-callsd trust COM
hiEations to absorb one another until
the state from necessity must reassume
control of the agricultural Industries
and all public utilities.
