Must Live In HazIeton.

The love which the D. S. & s. Rail-
road officials have for Freeland has been
shown agaiu by the order notifying the
crew OF train No. l that they must reside
In Hazleton hereafter II they wish to
retain their work on that road. A new
schedule went into effect yesterday and
one OF tho change. made was the dis
continuance OF tho train leaving Drifton
at $40 a. m. This train will hereafter
start from Roam and end its run al that
place.
The new arrangement is a result OF
efforts OF the railroad employees to secure
extra pay for working overtime. The
crew OF train train No. will be permit
ted to make only twelve hours per day In
the future, whereas under the old ruies
they made fourteen hours.
The men affected by the change are
Ben Reynolds, Henry Tully, ?. H.
Hanlon, Peter McHugh and Patrick
Gallagher.
The new order will be a great incon-
venience to the mem bers OF the crew,
some Of whom own their own homes in
town

Freeland's Pretty Girls.

From the White Haven Journal.
There are two or three young men or
overgrown kids" in town that should
remove their trunks to Freeland without
delay. BY so doing they may save
themselves an arm or leg, which they
are bound to lose sooner or later, if they
continue the practice of escorting the
silk mill girls into the passenger train
every evening. These ardentloyers are
not satisfied with chewing the rag" on
the platform for fifteen minutes before
the train arrives, but they follow the
girls into the coach and remain there
until the train starts out with their
darlings. 1t is common thing to see
these fellows hop off the train like lot
of grass-hoppers, anywhere from Smiths
hotel to Rhunke's back yard,
or course no one can blame the boys
for becoming smitten with the dear
girls from over the mountain, but they
are to be both pitied and blamed for
risking their lives by jumping off trains
every night.
Move your trunks to Freeland, boys,
where the pretty girls reside.

Quoted by the proper officers with the
employers.
Even the breaker and mine boy trou-
bles could be controlled with an agree
ment. Our organization has denonstrat-
ed its responsibility, and its ability to
carry ont its agreements. In the soft
coal fields, where such an agreement
exists, has it been violated? We have
always kept good faith there. We will
do 1t in the anthracite regions. 1t is a
matter of honor with our organization.
sin the absence OF an agreement we
are under no obligations to keep the men
At work. We can under any circum-
stances call them out any day in the
month. II we had an agreement and
should violate it we would not deserve
the respect nor the contidenc OF any
American citizen"
President Mitchell does not expect the
big operators to ba represented at the
conference. He said he had telegraph
ed and written all OF them, and while
some had answered there was nothing
to indicate they would be represented.
He hoped, however, for the harmony
and good will Of tho anthracite regions
they would have representatives at
Hazleton this week.

MITCHELL INTERVIEWED.

II do not regard the offer of the oper-
ators as satisfactory" said President
Mitchell at Scranton yesterday after
noon. Il consider that the proper way
to adjust wages and insure uninterrupt-
ed employment, as warranted by trade
demands, is for the operators to have a
conference with their employees through
the latter's representatives. Last fall
during the strike the mine owners took
the position that the men were not or
ganized, that they could give no guaran-
tee that an agreement made would be
kept unbroken. That is not true today.
All the mine workers Of the anthracite
coal fields are now practically organized.
"Thc percentage who are not yet
members is so small as not to be worth
calculating. 1t has been charged by
mine owners that where our organlza-
tIon is strong strikes are most frequent,
and in substantiation they had pointed
to the anthracite regions.
IF strikes have been more frequent
it is simply because there is no agree
ment between the operators and the
union. II we had such agreement there
would be no such violation of contract
The men would be required to obey its
provisions. II there have been any
strike troubles the past few months they
have been due to the mine owners fail
ing to carry out their part OF tho proposi
tion we made to them and which they
accepted
Agreements made and signed will in
sure uninterrupted employment. There
will be no 'iolation OF contract, and
wherever strikes occur we would be in
position to Immediately order our mon
back to work and the trouble would DO

OPERATORS
POST NOTICES
Increase to Continue Until
April /, 1902.
Advance of 10 Per Cent
Will Remain in Force An
other Year Companies
Will Not Meet Men.

The close relations existing between
the anthracite coal carrying companies
through the community OF interests
between them was eXemplifed by their
concert Of action on Saturday in posting
notices throus shout the anthracite region
that the 10 per cent advance in wages
and other concessions made to the
miners in October, 1900, would be con-
tinued until April /, 1902, and that local
differences would be adjusted with the
employees Of the respective colieries.
This action on the part OF the com
panies, 1t is understood, was determined
upon fully week or ten days ago. and
was done to anticipate any action on the
part OF the United Mine Workers OF
America. at their convention at Halle
ton this week, and to avoid a conference
demanded by the miners with tho opera
tors.
This construction At lea It, is put upon
their action by President Mitchell OF tho
United Mine Workers Of America, who
when advised OF what had been done,
said: This is q new move on the part
OF the operators. and it seems that they
do not intend to meet the United Mine
Workers in conference next week"
President Mitchell is further quoted as
saying that the continuation Of the 10
per cent advance to the miners would
not be at all satisfactory.
The notices posted at the different
collieries differ but little in the wording
The following is a copy OF the Lshigh
Valley Coal Company's notice:
The 10 per cent advance in wages
and other concessions made by the com
pany on November 1, 1900, as per notice
posted, will be continued to April l,
1902. Local differences will be adjusted
with our employees at the respective
collieriss."
The companies posting notices include
all the big corporations and a majority
OF the individual operators, except
Markle & Co. The latter run is expect
ed to make its announcement soon.
The coal companies controlled by the
Pennsylvania Railroad posted no notices,
but word was communicated through
the superintendents to the miners that
the present scale of wages would be
maintained.
While the officials of the big coal com
psnies are very reticent, it is known to
an absolute certainty that they have de-
termined not to confer with the miners
in convention. In fact, the request
made by President Mitchell, of the
United Mine Workers, to the officials OF
tho companies to send a representative
to the conference has been entirely ig-
nored, and In only one or two instances
has his request been recognized even by
a negative reply.

THEATR RICAL.

"The Missouri Girl" which comes to
Freeland tomorrow evening, has a
hold on the theatre going public
that is the envy Of all the other amuse-
ment promoters. Mr.. Raymond seems
to have struck the popular chord, and
year after year this attraction goes over
the same territory, and invariably to
crowded houses. Other plays come and
go, but The Missouri Girl' is here to
stay. The reason of this extraordinary
success is due to the fact that the play
contains all the better elements of the
several classes Of stage productions.
1t has good strong plot for the more
seriously inclined, exciting, sensational
cIimaxes for lovers of melodrama, plenty
OF comedy for those that enjoy that kind
of entertainment, strong specialties to
interest the vaudeville "cranks," a
carload of magnificent scenery to please
those who enjoy the spectacular lovely
gowns and costumes to please the ladies',
and withal production that is complete
in every detail. Furthermore, Mr.. Fred
Raymond is well know rs one of the
foremost comedians of the present time,
and has never yet disappointed an audi
ence by giving bad performance.

Sausalito Resident Believes He Knew
Persons Who Hired Boat and
Disappeared

SAN RAFAEL, Oct. 1O.-The identity of
the two men who hired a boat from
Charles Forrest at Sausalito yesterday
which was later found empty and float
ing in the bay has probably been estab-
lished.
this afternoon and stated that he knew
both men. He said they were John Muir
phv, q man interested in the saloon bust
ness in San Francisco, and E. Mullaney,
a young man employed. in a poolroom in
that CITY Mullaney said:
II was with both of them before they
took the boat We had several drinks
together They came over from the city
and PLAYED several races before they went
fshing. I knew the boat they had and
am nositive However, I do not believe
that they are drowned. Both are power
full swimmers, and L believe they could
M1jIlaney is the only one in Sausalito
who pretends to know anything about the
missing men. 1t is such a common thing
for men to hire boats at this season that
no attention is paid to such matter. 1t
has occasionally occurred, and may be
probable in the present instance, that the
men went ashore and sent the boat adrift.
Parties have done this several times in
the past.
