 mines to get out with all speed the coal for which the people are suffering.
 To adopt this course means the con- tinuance of the policy of exerting moral suasion to end the strike. It is certain that thus far the president has not found a single one of his constitutional advisers who could suggest any depart ure from this policy; no one could find method sanctioned by law or consti- tuition which promised relief and in- volved the use of duress against either the operators or the miners.
 So it is believed that to-day's confer ence was called by the president with the purpose of putting in exact shape the details of a plan, conceived in it's rough outlines even before the depart ure of President Mitchell last Friday af- ternoon from the mixed conference. The three hours spent in consultation to- l day were none too long to put into form twin propositions, one to the miners organization and the other to Governor Stone and the fact that Secretary Cor telyou was called on to prepare one or more statements at the direction of the president is taken as an indication that messages were sent out at the end of 1 the conference to-day and that the re- | ticence of all the parties is eXplainable perhaps by their desire to avoid the dis courtesy of publishing the nature of
 these before they are received by the
 persons to whom they are addressed as well as by wish to escape the compii- cation of the negotiations by heated public discussion at this stage. That
 the parties to the conference feel that | they have accomplished something was
 made evident by the expression of one | of belief that the miners soon will be | again at work.

 Two constantly recurring propositions 1 for federal interference, one that Unit
 ed States troops be sent into Pennsyl' vania for the protection of the men the operators employ and the other that the
 mines be seized by the general govern
 ment, are rejected no matter by whom urged. The first conference developed
 the fact that no federal interference by
 force was possible, and to that conclu'

days. The tea plant in nature is an un- dergrowth in dense forests. Under cul- tivation therefore, it has to be shaded from the sun until it is several months old, when it is. removed to the open field. In it's third year 1t yields small crop, and reaches full bearing in the ten year.
 Plenty of water is required. with irri- gation to help out the rain supply, and a temperature that rarely falls below 25 degrees Fahrenheit.

been produced there. In fact, about 5000 pounds of black tea of high grade
 were obtained from the Pnehurst plan tation last year and sold. But hitherto the problem of making green tea has defied solution, the labor required be- ing too expensive when the processes were performed by hand. It was a
 question of devising machine which
 should do the work cheaply and well, and only short time ago was this fin- ally accomplished.
 There are vast areas in the South available for tea culture, with plenty of pickaninnies to pick the leaves from the bushes, and Secretary of Agricul- ture Wilson believes that before very long there will be tea gardens all over that part of the country The industry
 affords an easy occupation for women and children. and there is no reason why people should not add tea growing
 to the production of flowers and vegeta-
 bles. Tea bushes might be substituted in the form of hedges for fences. and

SIXTH MONTH OF STRIKE.
No Material Chauge-Mttcheli Denies
 OperatOrs' Statements.

OperatOrs' Statements. ming of the six months of strike shows
 no material change in the situation.
 The operators told President Roosevelt
 on Friday that 17O0O men are at work and that 15 per cent. of the normal coal production is being mined. Mr. Mitchell then denied that such a num- Der Of men are mining coal. He said the operators are including in the 17000 | all the engineers, firemen and pump runners (of whom there are about g., 0OO), fire bosses, foremen, carpenters, clerks and all other employees. He al- so denied that 15 per cent. of the nor- nal production is being sent to market and said if the statement were true, the operators owe it to the public to sell the coal at normal prices instead of charging dealers $15 to $20 a ton.' While the superintendents hereabouts will not talk of future plans, there is an impression among citizens generally that a strong effort will be made this week by the coal companies to resume operations. The officials of these com panies have all along maintained that men are ready to return to work but | fear personal violence. MT. Mitchell says he has no apprehension of the strikers breaking away. He claims the companies are keeping constant without success.
 At Drifton, he said, the coal con- pany officials had made a canvass of
 that community and found only one boy, the son of a non-union man, who was willing to return.
 The three anthracite district presi- dents will arrive here tomorrow for a conference with their chief To-mor- row night the four will leave for Buff
 falo, where they will meet committee | from the National Association of Man ufacturers, which organization hopes to be able to devise some plan by which the mining of coal can be resumed. There was a rumor here tonight that while at Buffalo the strike leaders will hold conference with bituminous op- orators, but this was denied by MT Mitchell National Secretary Wilson of the miners union will also attend the meeting.
 A telegram was received at strike headquarters to-day announcing that the strike of the employees of the Kama waha and Hooking Valley Coal com- pany, numbering between 5,G00 and G. 900 men in West Virginia, has ended satisfactory to both sides. The men, it was announced at strike headquarters will receive their pay monthly, have been granted a nine hour day, will be paid by the weight of 2,000 pounds to the ton, will have the right to employ their own check weighmen, and will not be compelled to deal in company stores.

 Through our consuls abroad, the gov- ernment has been obtaining seeds of valuable varieties of teas from China Japan. India and Ceylon, and 50 acres of tea bushes are now under cultivation at Pinehurst. Better black tea is be- ing produced there than any now im- ported but up to now a satisfactory green tea has seemed to be unattain- able, economically. Nevertheless, green tea and black tea are manufactured from the same leaves, and the experts were satisfied that the problem would be solved sooner or later. They got at it finally by finding out the makeup of a tea leaf and the causes of the changes

BAER,S PROPOSITION.
Feeling That Miners Should Have
 Chance tO Consider It.

Scranton, Pa, Oct. 5.-There is a strong feeling prevalent here, especially among the business men, that there should be a convention of the strikers called to pass upon the Baer proposi- tion to refer to the district courts any dispute that cannot be satisfactorily ad- justed between the miner and his em- ployyer. The operators declare that if such a convention was held and secret ballot taken the vote in favor of going back to work on those terms would be almost unanimous.
 Mine workers leaders say the propo- sition Is sham intended to deceive the public.
 It is wholly impracticable, they say and before the week is over locals throughout the whole region will pass resolutions commenting President Mitchell for taking it upon himself to ignore the proposal.

TEA GROWING IN THIS COUNTRY.

Government experts have just made a discovery which is destined, so they say, to make the United States a great tea producing country driving foreign brands of the aromatic leaf out of the American market to a great extent, at all events. They have found out how to manufacture green teas by machin- cry, and have ascertained incidentally the great secret that Is at the bottom of the perfect cup of tea.
 Congress having recently given $10,- 900 for the purpose, they are going on with the experiments, the most i'm portant object of which is to show that the southern states can grow for 50 cents a pound better tea than can be imported for $5 a pound. Tea growing experiments have been in progress un- der government auspices, for the last 13 years at Pinehurst, near Summerville, S. C., and some very fine black tea has

RIGHT TO DISCHARGE

Washington, Sept. 2s.-Counsel for
Miss Rebecca J. Taylor. who was dis
missed recently from the war depart
ment as a result of her public criti-
cisms Of the administration policy in
the Philippines, today filed a demurrer
10 Secretary Roots answer to her Pc
tition for a mandamus to compel the
secretary to restore her 10 clerkship.
She alleges that her removal was with
out just cause or authority of law; that
1t was because OF her political opin-
ions and that a clerk has vested rights
to the office until removed by the prop
er authorities acting within the range
OF their authority. which she disputes
in this case. Her demurrer contends
that no head OF an executive depart
nent Is empowered to remove subor-
dinate In violation of the laws OF con-
gress or the rules of the president.

thirty-three different points. He first
charged that the three defenses pre-

lenses. and could properly be made in

Tense, the judge said that the boy was

son to believe that he was in bodily
danger when he fired the fatal shot. In
regard 10 the justification plea, he
charged the jury that Miss Coates was
a relative Of Kaighn's within the scope
Of the statutes. and that plea was COM

competent, and that If there was any

Of not guilty should be rendered.
