of Union Officials,
MARCH ON l. A T M E r

SHAMOKIN, Pa, October 1-Although
sCperintendents of the numerous collieries
in this portion of the ninth United Mine
Workers district attempted to start up
their mines this morning few men went
to work A few business people expected
there would be a stampede of employees
of the Reading Coal and Iron Company to
go under ground on account of the COM
pany granting an increase of 10 per cent
on the net earnings of men and boys, but
they were disappointed
If anything less men showed up at the
Reading company's workings that at other
operations. owing to the strikers and their
leaders having canvaSsed the workmen
thoroughly after the posting yesterday OF
the company'S notices informing the
miners of the concession. The canvaSserS
pointed out that nothing was said about a
reasonable reduction on the cost of powder,
the tiss!&>~hr,ent of the sliding scale or the
granting of othtl'+Ian,srtant concessions.
Long before daybreak all of the Reading
company's men had determined not to go
to work 1t is generally agreed by most,
If not all of the strikers, that they will
not go 10 work until officially advised by
President Mitchell
There was no violence anywhere in the
district this morning. Committees of
strikers lined all avenues leading to the
mines to guard against men going TO work,
but as few left their homes the sentinels
had little or nothing to do.

GOOD WORDS FROM THE POPE.
He Approves This COuntry's Attitude
Toward the Church.

LONDON, October 1.-Archblshop Ireland,

I'm one of the audiences which he granted
me the Pope said:
1--WE are well pleased with the relations
Of the American government to the church
in Cuba and the Philippines. The American
government gives proof of good will, and
exhibits a spirit of justice and respect for
the liberty and rights of the church." y"
You will thank in my name the President
Of the republic for what is being done.

(the papal secretary OF state) my conversa-
tion with the pope the cardinal declared
such statements were what he personally
believed and knew to be true, and that
was at liberty to repeat them to the Amer-
can people. Furthermore, Cardinal Ram
polla said that on less than three differ
ent occasions petitions had been sent to the
Vatican in the name of the Filipino leaders
asking that direct official relations be open
ed between them and the Vatican. but the
Vatican has always refused to listen to
such petitions out of consideration for the
American government.

mai to the stories in recent circulation that

England and Illinois.

Secretary Gage has returned to Washing
ton after vacation spent in the New Eng

Treasury Department today. When asked
about the political situation, as viewed in

Il have not talked much politics. but the
few representative men with whom l did
talk exhibited the deepest interest in the
reelection of President Mckinley. and were
confident that SO far as the east, that is
New England, was concerned, the usual
majorities would be given. As the danger
in Illinois and Indiana has been magnified.

about those states. The issues are so great

mains unchanged this morning. All Of The
colieries, with the exception of the on at
Mocanaqua, employing 400 men, are tied
up, usual. 1t is apparent from the dec
larations of the strikers and their leaders
that no action will be taken on the attempt
of the mine owners to start their collieries
by offer of a 10 per cent increase in
wages until word comes from Pre-ident
Mitchell
No attempt was made to resume opera
tions at any of the idle mines and no no.
tices have been posted inviting the men to
return to work. The strikers are anxiously
awaiting news from the national officers
of the United Mine Workers.
A meeting of the general superintendents
or the Lackawanna, Wilkesbarre, Lehigh
Delaware and Hudson, Lehigh Valley Coke
Brothers and the individual operators will
be held here this afternoon. 1t is thought
formal offer will then be made to the miners
working in this vicinity. The terms will
probably De the same as those posted by
the Reading company-a 10 per cent in
crease in wages, with a promise to arbi-
trate other grievances if the men return to
work. There will be no formal recognition
of the miners union. If the men accept a
10 per cent increase all will be well and
good If not, the operators say the strike
is destined to go on.
AT strike headquarters it was given out
that the men will not take action no matter
what offer the co. ,panies make until Pres
ident Mitchell had been consulted. A great
many of the strikers are willing to accept
10 per cent increase, but they say they
will do nothing to antagoniZe the officers of
the United Mine Workers, since, in the
opinion of the strikers, they have conduct
ed affairs successfully so far.
1t is the Judgment of those here in a
position to know that a settlement of the
strike depended on President Mitchell waiv-
ing the right of the national executive
board through him to dictate what terms
shall be accepted and allowing the local
unions to decide the matter
