At Elizabethtown, a Steam Whistle on

Was Blown Loudly, While
Empty Coal Wagons Were
Driven at Full Speed

LOUISVILLE, KY, Oct. 13.-Lousvile
tonight gave Governor Roosevelt an en-
thusiastic reception. The programme con-
Guided with a crowded meeting at the
Auditorium This was in contrast to the
greeting offered at Elzabethtown, the last
stop before the special reached this city.
AT that place the Governor suffered the
first indigmty thrust upon him in the
State.
No sooner had the Governor mounted
the platform with General Buckner and
other members OF his party than an at
tempt was made to break up the meeting.
Small boys carried Bryan banners in the
outskirts of the crowd and empty coal
wagons were driven d IuW speed through
the square. The steam whistle on d mill
c.ose by was blown loudly and half
hundred man or more shouted 'Hurrah
for Bryan" when the Governor began
speaking.
COULD NOT DOWN HIM.
Despite the fact YGat he had soreness of
his throat, whiclpshad compelled him to
shorten all his earlier speeches during the
day, the Governor proceeded to make hinl-
self heard in spite of the noise in the
crowd. Above the shIiek of the steam
whistle rang the words: Il call your at
tention to the attitude of Mr.. Bryan's
friends on the subject OF law and order
Then he waved,.his hand to the crowd
and continued: .sft is natural that the
men who have tried to deprive Kentucky
of free ballot should be opposed TO free
speech. It is not extraordinary that the
men who have stolen the Governorslp
and who seek to steal it again should not
dare hear the truth of history. but should
seek to gag an .s1,.artcan citizen even be-
fore he had uttered one word of his opin-
ions in political controversy.
The Governor was urged to permit
substitute to finish the programme. He
rejected the suggestion, however, and
spoke the full fifteen minutes allotted to
him, and was escorted to his train by
large crowd.
Just a put up job to break up the
meeting was Governor Rooseveit's com
ment when he returned to his car, ''but
guess got back al them"
When the train reached Louisville it
was stormed by an admiring, curious
surging mob. which followed the party to
the Gait House. Including the speech to-
night Governor Roosevelt has addressed
nine audiences in Kentucky since
o'clock. when he spoke a Henderson. To-
morrow he will rest quietly, reaching Lex
ington at 6 O'Clock Monday morning

1Br Associated Press.)

SCR ANTON. PA, October B.-The an
t.racite coal miners now on strike altei
, +,,o days, convention, late this afternoon
decided to accept the ten per cent. net ~
crease in wages offered by ule mine own
ers providing they will continue the pay
ment of the advance until next Aprli ana
Will abolish the sliding scale. II the op-
orators consider the proposition unaccepe-
shle the miners are willing TO arbitrate
tra questions at issue. They also decided
to continue the strike until the operators
agree to the conventions proposition.
The resolution says:
That this convention accept. an advance
Of 10 per cent, providing ule orefa,ots
will continue its payment untli 2PtH =
1901. and will abolish the sliding scaie ~
the Lehigl and Schuylklil regions tiie
scale Of wages in the two last ildiheo
districts to remain stationary at ~ pel
cent. above the present basis price, ana
tf1at the companies will agree to adjust
other grievances complained OF with COM
nlittees of their own employees.
SHOULD this proposition be unacceptanie
to the operators, We recommend tliaL
the convention propose that all questions
at issue be submitted to a fair ana M
pariaI board of arbitration. we Wsuiu
further recommend that under no circuH-
stances should there be a resumption OF
work at any OF the collieries until the
operators signify their acceptance OF this
proposition and you are notified officially
that the strike is ended and all return 10
work in body on the same day
LONG CONTEST PROBABLE
Judging from the unanimity OF the min
ers ir accepting the above resolution and
by the determined stand taken by the
operators, it is generally believed that a
lang contest between the strikers and rniEe
owners is not unlikely. There was great
enthusiasm in the convention when the
counter -proposton to the operators was
carried and three cheers were given for

CHICAGO, October 1S.-Chairman Jones,

ferring to Governor Roosevelt's association
of his name with private ownership in
trusts. said to-day:
ANY statement made by anybody that
1 am in any way connected with or in
terested in any organization that is in any
sense a trust is absolutely untrue. The
charge made that the American Cotton
Bale Company is a trust was the occasion
of a letter written by me, and published at
the time, in which ! stated the facts of
my connection with that company. That
letter explains everything and was pub
lshed and extensively circulated. If Mr..
Roosevelt mad wanted to inform himself, he
had the opportunity of doing SO. If he
is a sincere man, he will not, after reading
that letter, make the statement that the
American Cotton Bale Company is trust.
