MINERS Nv URGENT APPEAL
TO ACCEPT ARB/ZRl4ZION

| identical, they are nevertheless reci-
procal each is dependent upon the
other, and under our form OF govern
nent one cannot prosper without the
other.
The proposition submitted for your
consideration may have Objectionable
features and its detail may not meet
with the unanimous approval of our peo-
pie, but it Is immeasurably better as
now presented than when originally of
fered by the representatives of coal cor
porations. l am firm in my conviction
that the prompt acceptance of this pro-
posal will secure to the anthracite mine
workers and those dependent upon them
a greater measure of justice than they
could attain by continuing the conflict.
| believe that the prompt acceptance OF
this proposition will secure to the mine
workers greater degree of Justice than
they have enjoyed in the past.
Urged to Accept Arbitration.
The people await with anxious ex-
peCIdDCy Ine results vi NOui W.

upon you. and friends and foes alike
demand the submission of the issues in
volved in this strike to the tribunal
named by the President of the United
States.
That there are discordant elements in
this convention; that there are dissat-
isfied ones at home, | am fully aware;
but, gentlemen. with all the earne3tness
of which l am possessed, I urge that
you give your approval to the actor: of
your executive officers, who nave rec

HIGH PRICE ASKED FOR BEER
Only the Rich in south Africa Can
AFFORD TO Buy the Amber
Fluid.

LONDON. Sept. 19.-The British trade
journals continue to comment on American
enterprise in South Africa and the extent
which American machinery dominates the
market. The Engineer says American firms
at johannesburg are completely supplanting
the English firms at Capetown. chiefly by
carrying a large stock and making quick
delivery.
Recent advices from johannesburg show
that South Africa at present is the dearest
place in the world to live. A correspond
emit writes that it is high time to sound
a note Of warning and check the premature
influx Of people which promises TO lead
to great difficulties and serious distress.
The worst sufferers, 1t is added, are women
workers, teachers, typewriters and shop
girls, who are met with the almost In
variable reply that mo single woman
dodgers are admitted"
Rents increase every month and families
OF moderate means have to spend from
40 TO so per cent OF their income to secure
the merest accommodation which decency
requires.
The price Of all food are exorbitsnt and
beer costs 81 a bottle. Wages are about
the same as before the war. The CORE
~spondent asserts that a clerk In London
on a salary Of $3.50 a year is more fortunate
than one in South Africa at 1920.

CAR THIEVES TO BE Fooled
Improvement IL Patented on Car
Locks and Seals that Cannot BE
Tempered with.

SIOUX FALLS, s. d., Sept. 13.-(speeial.)
&C. F. Flynn, agent of the Chicago &
Northwestern Railroad company at Miller,
has developed into an inventor. He has
Just been granted q patent upon a device
to be known as the Standard cRrlock and
seal. 7...4
1t is said to be a great improvement
over the present methods of locking and
sealing freight cars, and promises to
make Flynn a millionaire. The locks
and seals at present in use enable car
thieves to break the seal, carry away what
goods they want and then ressal the plum
dered car. making it impossible for rail-
road authorities to locate the place where
the robbery was committed.
Cars equipped witt the lock and seal in
vented by Flynn cannot be robbed without
completely breaking the seal, and thieves
could not reseal a car without detection.
1t will dispense entirely with the sealing
press. and will cause a great saving in
time, as It Is easily and quickly adjusted.
The new lock and seal 1T is said, will cost
fully so per cent less than the locks and
seals nov In use.@
Flynn has spent several years perfecting
the{ device. and win depart for Chicago
in a few days to arrange for the manufae-
ture OF the locks and seals, which will
at once be brought to the attention Of the
proper officers OF the various great rail-
road systems.

David J. Hill, assistant secretary of state.

OF the three is acceptable. The impress
sion here is that Mr.. Tower is tho most
likely to be appointed. Submitting a list
Of m instead of q single one is quite
outside Of diplomatic custom. Usually only
one name is proposed.
Mr.. White returns from Switzerland next
week and will probably remain here until
he presents his letters of recall to Emperor

.BoER TACTICS IN MANEUVERS
New system of wireless TeIeGrRphy IL
Also One of the German Army
Novelties.

BERLIN, Sept. 1.-two novelties at. the
army maneuvers, just ended, were wireless
telegraphy and Boer tactics. The results
of the wireless experiments seem com
pletely satisfactory and in the opinion of
the military, chiefs will enormously. AFFECT
the transmission of intelligence during bat
tie.
The system used was neither the Slabyn
or the Marconi, and a description OF the
apparatus is not available because visitors
at the maneuvers when they came close to
the stations were requested to retire. The
exterior of the apparatus is simply a GU
,bioal iron box, about three feet each way.
mounted on a wagon resembling a gun
carriage and drawn by four horses.
The messages sent were caught on a wire
attached to a small balloon several hun
dred feet above the carriage, These. sta
lions we're moved freely about the field, the
horses sometimes going at a trot. The oper-
ators used a key producing q shrill, me-
talIic sound audible for a hundred yards.
The cavalry corps, in making the detour
yesterday kept constantly in touch with
headquarters through the wireless tele-
graph, enabling the corps to hasten the
movement of the men. 1t will now be pos
slble to deliver coordinate attacks by
widely separated divisions in a way hitherto
impossible.
Boer tactics were used extensively dur
ing the third day Of the m~aneuvers, when
the infantry deployed in open order, ad-
vanced regardless OF regular formation,
each man or squad taking advantage Of ir-
regularities of the ground for cover and
running forward in small sections, instead
OF in a whole line sitting down again and
once more advancing. The artillery also,
instead Of being massed on prominent
points. where guns and gunners would be-
come targets for the enemy's guns, was
placed in selected, covered locations, each
battery taking position without regard to
alignment with the others.

TAKE LUNCH WITH PRESIDENT
Postmaster General Payne. DR.. Albert

r' Are Favored Guests.

OYSTER BAY. L. l., Sept. 1S.-The presi-
dent had as his guests at luncheon today
Postmaster General Payne, DR.. Albert Shaw,
editor Of the Review of Reviews, and
Colonel and Mrs. Arthur Lee.
Colonel Lee is a member OF the British
House or Parliament AMI was formerly the
military attache OF the British embassy in
this country. In that capacity he was pres
emit at the battle OF Santiago.
Postmaster General Payne discussed de-
partmental affairs with the president. A
number of decisions we're reached which
viii be announced In the near future from
washington. The coming campaign and the
general political situation were talked over.
Mr.. Payne left on an afternoon train for
New York. Colonel Lee is an intimate
friend Of the president and HIS visit was
purely social. He will sail Tuesday for
England.
Everything is in readiness for the recep-
tion to be rendered by the president to the
people OF Nassau county Monday afternoon.
The rain of the past two days has dam
aged the decorations on the different build
ings to some extent, but this will be over
looked II Monday should prove to be a
good day. Several hundred large Ameri-
can flags will be stretched across the road
lCduiuB u OdkalhOIC AAhh' nv IA hioh
to the Roosevelt road a large banner will
be stretched bearing the word Welcome"
surrounded by flags.
Many yachts are expected to be in the
harbor on Monday, among them being those
Of Frank J. Gould and George wilmot. 1t
is expected hat large parties will come
over on these yachts.
When the president issued his invitations
for this reception he thought that only a
few ~neighbors would come. his idea being
to shake hands with the people about here
who have known him for many years. Now
that so many people are coming it will be
necessary to make the reception a more
formal aiair than had been at hrst in
tended, but 1t is stated that 1t is not in
tended as a public function, simply being
designed to AFFORD q chance for the presi-
dents ~neighbors to see him and shake his
hand. II Is said the ministers will request
the saloonkeepers to close their places OF
business on the day OF the reception.
Secretary Cortelyou left this afternoon
for Washington, where he will complete ar
engagements for the presidents northwest

CHICAGO, Sept. IA most important
decision against the Chicago Board Of Trade
Was rendered today by Judge Axel Chitrsds
in the "Jhly oats corner" Injunction cases.
Not only does the opinion Of the court. IL
sustained by the higher tribunal, put an end
to all corners in commodities on this ex-
change, but it strikes at the very life of
the Institution as now organized. The di-
rectors for all time have had their powers
so curtailed that they can no longer adjud-
icate upon property rights Of the members
OF the association. Judge Chitraus goes

vision for succession Of membership and he
asks the pertinent question; What viii

Of the abnormal curiosity exhibited a let

asking an intercession with the officers
that she might be a witness at the execu-
ton. Another letter from the reser-
walton stated that the doomed man was en-
titled to some representation from among
his own people, and demanded two tickets
into the enclosure. The writer gives the
prisoners name as "Loves-the-war." u
The prisoner says little. He plays SOL

gis is his Official spiritual advisor, as he is
a communicate of the Episcopal church.
