Suit for Damages Contemplated.

1t is said that Mr.. Frederick r. Rus
sell is contemplating bringing suit
against the Washington, Alexandria and
Mount Vernon Railway Company for
damages in being put off train about a
month ago. Mr.. Russell AYERS that pre-
vious to this occurrence the company
had an office at st. Asaph where round
trip tickets to Washington and return
were sold for 25 cents; that the ticket
Office was abolished and when he offered
to pay the conductor the old price for q
round trip his application was refused.
Mr.. Russell declined to pay 10 cents for
a straight ticket, the train was stopped
and he was put off. Mr.. Russell claims

l further learned that those
who are using coal on an order
tor two or three tons, which they
believe an order that could be
filled under even these condi.
tions, get only one ton, and un.
less they are old customers, or of
some prominence, less than this.
Another demonstration of the
fact that the strike is being felt
is that the metropolis is about to
outrival Pittsburg as a dirty city.
In the absence of a supply of
anthracite the elevated roads are
forced to use soft coal aud as a
consequence there is consider
able complaint from the patrons
and the residents and business
people along the streets through
which they operate. The volume

New York, Oct,9. The most
interesting subjects here gener-

of President Mitchell. He has
been here two days and during
that time there have been two
long conferences at the Fifth
Avenue hotel. Soon after dinner
last evening he, with representa-
tives Of the Morgan interests,
repaired to his apartments and
closed the doors to the outside
world. 1t was but an hour or two
before dawn when the conference
broke and the lights in Mitch ellis
room were extinguished.
Today Mitchell was mum to all
newspaper men. At his break
fast table this morning he said /:

gravity Of the situation, and it
would give US great pleasure to
take action which would bring
this coal strike 10 an end in a
manner that would safeguard the
interests Of our constituents.
In proposing that there be an
immediate resumption of coal
mining upon conditions we sug-
gested in the conference at
the White House We believed
that we had gone more than half
way and had met your wishes.
Its unnecessary in this letter to
refer to the malicious assault made
upon us in the response of the
coal operators. We feel confident
that you must have been i'm
pressed with the fairness of our
proposition and the insincerity
of those who maligned us.
Having in mind our experience
with the coal operators in the
past we have no reason to feel
any degree of confidence in their
Willingness to do us justice in
the future and as much as they
have refused to accept the de-
cision of a tribunal selected by
you, and inasmuch as there is no
law through which you could
enforce the findings of the COM
mission you suggest, we respect
fully decline to advise our people
to return to work simply upon
the hope that the coal operators
might be induced or forced to
comply with the recommends
tions of your commissions.
AS stated above, we believe
that We went more than half way
In our proposal at Washington
and we do not feel that we should
be asked 10 make further sacri-
flee.
We appreciate your solicitude
for the people of our country who
are now and will be subjected to
great suffering and inconvenience
by a prolongation of the coal
strike, and we feel that the onus
of this terrible state of affairs
should be placed upon the side
which has refused to defer to
fair and impartial lnvestiga ton.
| am, Respectfully,
John Mitchell,
President U. M. w. of A.
No comment was made con-
cerrlng the letter of Mr.. Mitchell
by officials at the White House
today, although it can be said
that the president has not ex.
hausted all efforts in Bringing
about an end to the strike.
Nothing can be learned as to the
tnture intentions Of the president
IN this matter, and it Is stated
that the time has not yet come

"a o acres in the two farms, one
being known as the "DeSausure"
and the other as the"Reed" farm.
They consist of upland and fertile
bottom lands, besides woodland
and uncleared swamps.
The farms are divided into two
equal tracts, and rs convicts are
assigned to work each, making
about 16 acres for each convict
to cultivate. Systematic methods
are used, and to this is due much
OF the great results accomplished,
making these farms splendid OBJ
Ject lessons to every farmer in
the state. Most of the convicts
are negroes, the whites among
them being composed of mechan
les detailed especially for that
kind of work. Convicts are not
shackled, but there have been
but few attempts to escape. The
men are required to strictly OBJ
serve all rules, but humanity was
the guiding principle in making
them. They have to work hard,
but there are no complaints az
to cruelty on the part of the man

tract is devoted to cotton, the
other crops raised being corn,
