Three Anthracite Road Presi-

HAS BOTH SIDES OF TROUBLE
H. Declared His investigation Was
Practically over-Easley Said Civic
Federation Had Nothing Further to
Do With Settlement.

New York, June 11.-Late yester-
day afternoon Commissioner Wright
lad a two hours conference with
President Baer, of the Philadelphia
aud Reading railroad; President
Ciyphant, of the Delaware and Hud-
son company, and President Trues-
dale, of the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western road.
Mr.. Wright said that the books had
had been opened and he secured all
facts and figures and now had sufi
ciCnt information of both sides which
probably would not necessitate his
going to the coal fields. He declared
the investigation was practically over
He said he expected to spend last
evening with friends and would hold
no conference.

asked yesterday as to the process 0:

PRESIDENT CAN RERUKE COURT.
Eut He Could Not Compel IL to
Change Decision-Gen. Smith
May Be Cleared.

Washington, June 11.-Secretary
Root said yesterday that he had not
had time to consider the case Of Gen
eral ]. H. Smith, tried by court mar
tIal at Manila for alleged violations
Of the rules of war in the conduct of
the campaign Of Samar. He added
that as the Smith case was based
practically on the transactions which
led to the trial of Major L. w. T.
Waller, of the marine corps, by court
martial, charged with the alleged un-
lawful killing of Filipino prisoners,
he would probably await the receipt
of the record of that case before Civ
ing final consideration to tn eSmith
case. The Waller record is not ex-
pected to reach this city for several
weeks.
1t is said at the war department
that the Waller case is a closed Incl
dent but that the Smith case will
not be legally closed until it has been
finally acted upon by the president
The significance of this statement is
that it is still within the power OF
the president to return the case to
the court for reconsideration of the
evidence adduced, even though the
officer was acquitted by. the court, as
the press dispatches from Manila
have indicated. The court would not
be legally compelled to change its
findings, however, against it's own
judgment and it's adherence to a yer
dict Of mot guilty" would stand
despite the disapproval of the presi
dent, which in that case would b;
simply as rebuke to the court
without affecting the legal status o.
the accused.

There Is a class of men who are
seldom appreciated at their true
value. In this enlisted age they
are commonly called dad" 1t Is
dad who humps himself year In and
year out on the farm, In the Office
or workshop, In order that his boy
or girl may 60 away to school and
upon their return that the boy may
have a fine horse and top buggy
and the girl "a costly piano. 1t Is
dad who hustles and cultivates
great calloused knots on his hands
and becomes stoop shouldered In
order that his offspring may revel
In luxury and make tarnal fools of
themselves.
His sons and daughters have
learned at his expense to despise
his old fashioned ways. They Sc.
cretly laugh at the style of his Sun
day coat and hat. On Sunday when
his daughter has company and he
would like to sit In the parlor he Is
given In various ways to under
stand that his presence is-not de-
sirable, aud the old man goes out
into the kitchen and stays the re-
mainder of the afternoon. God
help the son or daughter who goes
back on dad: In the catalogue of
low down cussedness that of iu-
gratitude to ones parents Is the
most contemplate.
