PROSPECT OF
ENDING THE STRIKE

HaZelton, Pa. Oct. S.-Thc issuing of
the call to-day by President Mitchell of
the United Mine Workers, for joint
convention of the anthracite miners to
be held ut Scranton next Friday for the
purpose of deciding whether to accept
or to reject the ten per cent. net in-
crease in wages offered by the Oper
atOrs. is Il long stride in the direction
of bringing the great coal miners strike
to Il close.
1t is believed the convention will not
be Il long one and it is expected that
the strikers will almost unanimously
accept the advance in wages. There is
however a probability that by the i'll
PRODUCTION of a proposition to abolish
the sliding scale and another to have
the operators agree to Il yearly wage
contract. the termination of the strike
may be somewhat delayed.
None of the operators who could be
seen here to-day would have anything
to say in regard to the convention call,
which is as follows:
''In view of the fact that the mine
operators have posted notices offering
an advance in wages formerly paid
and believing ii our plain duty to con-
suit your WISHES as 10 our future ac-
tion we deem it advisable to ask you
to select delegates to represent you in
convention.
You are therefore notified that II
convention will be held at Scranton.
Pennsylvania. beginning Friday. Octo-
Der 18th at 10 Il. IN.
1.-The basis of representation will be
one vote for each 100 persons on strike.
or if desired. one delegate may repre-
sent as many as 800 mine workers. but
no delegate will be allowed to cast
more than five votes.
Each delegate should have crelen-
tinls signed by the chairman and sec
retary of the meeting at which he is
elected, and whenever possible creden-
tials should bear the seal of the local
union
President Mitchell refused to say
anything rs TO what the convention
would probably decide to do in the mat
ter of the ten per cent. net increase.

sixty Soldiers Captured,

Manila. Oct S.-The report of the cap

to General Macarthur and Admiral
Kempf from Marinduque island, but
details are lacking The Yorktown's
relief column landed at Torrios, on the
Martinique coast and marched to San

of the captured party, without cncoun-
tering the enemy or learning anything
definite regarding the captivcs except
that they had entirely disappeared.

high official in Porto Rico says
that eighteen months ago there were
known to be three thousand cases of
smallpox on the island; in the past
sight months not a single death from
the disease has been reported to the
board OF health. What has wrought
the change? The answer may be read
IN the fact that the names Of nearly
eight hundred thousand persons are
recorded on the vaccination list Of the

that the abolishment of the sliding
