AWAITING THE OPERATORS.
Mitchell Says Large Companies Have
Failed To Act, Since seran-
ton Convention.

Hazelton. Pa. Oct 22.-When PresI-
dent Mitchell. of the United Mine
Workers. was asked by a representa-
tive of the Associated Press what he
had to say in regard to q settlement Of
the anthracite coal miners strike he
said
AS there. appears to be some Gispo-
sition on the part of the public to place
the responsibility for the prolonga-
ton Of this strike on the shoulders of
the mine workers. speaking for them
| want to say that when the Scranton
convention accepted the 10 per cent adj
vance III wages, providing the operat-
ors abolished the sliding scale and
guaranteed the payment of the adj
vance until April T. the miners had
met the operators more than half way.
They had shown q eeneilatory spirit
and 7 know of no good reasons why
the proposition should not have been
accepted by the operators.
AS a consequence. the responsibility
for the continuation of the strike rests
slowly upon the failure Of the operat-
ors to treat the proposition of their en-
ploEes considerably. The public
should understand that unsatisfactory
who make the reduction in the price
of powder a part of the advance of 10
per cent, that even this proposition has
not been offered by very large num-
Der Of the coal producing companies
in the anthracite region. and until all
companies guarantee the payment of
tho 10 per cent advance above the
rate of wages paid III September until
y ] ia a ciS.ip 81
Scranton convention the miners are
powcrlesa to act. I want to repeat
again. that there can he no partial or
sectional settlement of this strike
THE large companies in the Iehigh
region that have refused to move at
all since the Scranton convention was
held are Coke Bros one of the largest
coal producers in the Lehigh region:
G. r, Markle & Co. the Lehigh and
Wilkeshafre company, the Lehigh Coal
and Navigation company and Il large
number of smaller companies There
Is also considerable number of coal
companies n the Lackawanna and
Wyoming regions that have not guar
anteed the payment of the 10 per cent
advance until April l. The only dis
triet that has accepted the terms of
the Scranton convention in full is No.
9, better known as the Schuylkill dis
trict
"Companies which produce about Go
per cent Of the total production Of the
anthracite coal fields have guaranteed
the payment of the 10 per cent adj
vance and have abolished the sliding
scale"
When Mr.. Ntitchell was asked what
he would do II all the companipS were
to post notices he said. "When all the
companies have posted notices. then I
will have something to say.
When il was suggested to him that
there might he break in the ranks of
the strikers If the contest was to con-
tinue much longer he said that not one
man VIII go back to the mines until
they are officially notified to return.

WILLING TO ACCEPT.
A Scranton Leader Says Men
Are Satisfied.
CAN'T DICTATE TO OPERATORS.
1t Is Not For Them to Say How the Ten
Per Cent Advance should BE Paid.
Mitchell Biames Operators For Pro-
1ongatlon of Trouble.

Scranton, Pa, Oct. 22.--A meeting Of
the presidents Of the Scranton local
unions Of the United Mine Workers
was held in this city to discuss
the ACCESSIBILITY OF taking aggressive
steps toward closing up the washeries
1t was decided to let the matter rest
for q while. The fact that the end Of
the strike rs generally believed to be at
hand ilHpelled the meeting 10 refrain
from making this move, which is gen
orally conceded, would be attended
with the possibility of disorder and
which would have a tendency to do
more harm 70 the cause than the oper-
alton Of the washeries
The general situation was discussed
and one of the presidents at the con-
clusi0n of the meeting stated that in
his judgment the men would be per-
fectly satisfied to accept the 10 per
cent offer with the powder clause in
cluded.
"All that we can expect to enforce
is that we get the 10 per cent said
he. 1T is hardly the thing for us to
think we can also dictate to the com
panies how they shall pay the adj
vance"

HANNA CLAIMS SOUTH DAKOTA.
Said He Believed Mckinley Would Also
Carry Nebraska.

Chicago, Oct 22.-Senators Hanna
and Frye arrived here from Omaha,
Neb., where the concluding meetings
Were held Of their tour last week al
Minnesota, South Dakota and Nebras-
ka. Senator Frye will probably leave
here today for New York, while Sena-
tor Hanna will devote most of the
coming week to speechmaking in Chi
cago with Joliet. Ills, and Milwaukee,
Wis, also on his itinerary Senator
Hanna was almost worn out from his
weeks travelling and was suffering
considerably from rheumatism. He
was driven to his apartments immedi-
ately on his arrival.
Il have taken South Dakota out of
the doubtful column" said Senator
Hanna. There is no doubt in my
mind that its electoral vote will be cast
for Mckinley. OF course, surface in
dications are all one can go by on a
trip of that kind, but the immense
crowds ! talked to. and the warm
greetings | received, leave no other
opinion possible. Personally / thor
oughly believe Nebraska will also go
for Mckinley"

Leaving Pittsburg Mr.. Bryan imme

room of the sleeper, where he rested
during the afternoon. At the various

William L. WILSON.

II In the death OF William l.. w llson
a life was closed which, Tor purity,
elevation Of purpose, and self sacrt
ficing devotion to public duty, may
well challenge comparison with that
of any American of our time. The
commanding position in his party
which came to Mr. Wilson at crit
ical period in its history came TO
him solely as tribute to his ability
his sincerity, his zeal tor the prin
ciples he represented, and the per-
sonal regard and confidence which
he 50 universally inspired In some
respects, his attainment OF such a
position was literally unique. Not
only did he practice none Of the arts
OF the professional politicians, but
his personality wa devoid OF most
Of those attributes which are usual
~ thought necessary to the acqnir
ing OF high political eminenee n our
country. He was a man Of extreme
" slight physique. and Of little OF
no magnetism There was an en-
gazing friendliness, simplicity and
good humor about him that was GER
tainly attractive, and the total alb
senee OF any kiHd Of pfetension went
lar to making those with whom he
came in contact feel kindly toward
him ,but he was anything but edusiye'
aud indeed was given to expressing
far less than his real feelings in per
sonal intercourse. Moreover, he was
the scholar in politics in far
truer sense than that IN which these
words are usually applied; for he
was not merely a man in politics
who had once been a scholar, but
man who retained the tastes and
habits of true scholar and indus
trious reader throughout his career.
No tribute more striking to the
high worth of Mr. Wilson could be
cited than the universal respect in
which he has been held in spite of
the belief honestly entertained By SO
many that he represented not only
mistaken but an infinitely disastrous
economic policy No better proof
can he given than this to the youth
of America that character and solid
ability can triumph against all odds,
and achieve reward far more graf
living than can he attained hy the
most speeious qualities OF by the
most skiIltul Intrigue To those
who knew Mr. Wilson's life, howe9
er, this but expresses a small part
Of what his career signifies
In the example Of such men, and
in their emulation By the rising gen
GRAFTON, lies the chief hope OF this
great Republic; for it is he exam
pie of stainless integrity, anainch-
ing courage, and steady devotion to
the truest ideals of American citizen
