CONFERENCE OF
STRIKE LEADERS

Hazelton, Pa, Oct. IA conference
which Ia believed to mark the begin
ming Of the end of the anthracite coal
miners strike. which enters upon its
fourth week tomorrow, was held at the
headquarters Of the United Mine
Workers here this afternoon. Those
present besides President Mitchell,
were Fred Dilcher of Ohio, a member
Of the executive board, and Presidents
T. d. Nichols Of District No. /, Lack
awanna and Wyoming valleys; James
Duffy, District No. Z. Lehigh valley:
John Fahey, District No. 8, Schuykill
valley.
Although no Information was given
out it Is known that the question OF
issuing call for joint convention
was the principal matter discussed. The
coming convention will be held at
Scranton unless something unforeseen
should arise between now and the time
of the issuing Of the call. Besides tax
ing mp the matter OF convention, II
10 understood that the question Of rep
resentation was also considered. The
three district presidents made full re-
ports ~ to the conditions a. they now
exist in the respective districts.
President Mitchell. after the confer
ence. said he would have something to
say tomorrow In regard to fhe conven-
tion. II the date has been hxed, only
Mr.. Mitchell and his colleagues know
II. +
OF course, the principal matter to
come before the miners will be the ac-
cep<Ancs Or rejecti0n Of the ten per

opesatofA President Mitchell said to-
day that not one 06Bcial of the mine

Z Most Of the mine owners who have
granted the wage concession DO mot
specify In their notices how long the
advance shall remain In force, and 1t
ID not unlikely that an attempt win be
made BY the miners In convention to
open negotiations looking to q conces-

MORE AID NEEDED
AT GALVESTON

Galveston, Oct. 7.-Miss Clara Bar
ton, president Of the National Red
Cross society, to-day issued a statement
to the manufacturers and business
men Of the country, in which abe ap-
peals to them for MD In the way Of ma
tertaI to be used In the building Of
homes for those who lost their al in
the recent storm. 1t IL addressed:
TO the manufacturers and dealers in
lumber, hardware, builders materials
and household goods. and to business
men in general Of the United States,
and says:
I'VE believe 1t is reliably stated that
there is not one house in the area of
the storm undamaged by 1t. A large
proportion of these persons formerly
occupying them are entirely without
homes or even shelter, save such per-
sons as nearly as destitute as them
selves can offer them temporarily, to
their great Inconvenience and cost.
THE number of this homeless class
is estimated Mt 5000 or more. Winter
Is less than two months away. Al
though mild climate still snow and
Ice are known here. II tents would
protect, which they will not, the sea
sand and the quicksand would not hold
them down; the first n0rther would
leave their occupants as unsheltered as
before; and hardships, colds, pneu-
mOnia and consumption would find
what the storm has left.
Some substantial shelter must be
had Mt once for these people.
"The havoc wrought by the storm In
Galveston at once was much larger in
loss Of life and property than at Johns
town, but the donations In money 60
far have aggregated one-third less for
both the city and mainland than waa
given at Johnstown. @
while the bountlful outpouring ol
the peoples generosity has enabled the
general relief committee and the Red
Cross to feed the hungry, ciothe the
naked, and render the streets Of Gal
weston partially passable, nothing has
as yet been done toward reinstating the
impoverished survivorsin houses where
they can escape disease and enjoy the
slight measure of the comforts Of
which the storm deprived them.
1T is for the purpose of awakening
the sympathies Of the American peo-
pie and further appealing to their
bountiful instincts to rescue these suf-
ferers from the hardships still con-
fronting them, that the foregoing state
ments have been put forth"

Critics who have complained for
years that theatrical managers never
gave native playwrights q chance
ought to be satisfied at last. Judging
from preliminary announcements and
from the nrst productions of new
plays already given the stage Is to be
almost monopolized during the coming
season by American-made dramas.
Practically every one Of the novels BY
American writer's which was success
ful during the last year has been dram
atised and awaits production BY q
star Of greater or less magnitude. The
result Of the season from . box-of,cs
standpoint should be fair test OF the
drawing power Of homemade dramas.

financially successful hereafter the
