LONDON COMMENT.
Roosevelt and Morgan Come in For
Great Praise.


London. Oct 1.-THE presidents tri-
umph'' is the subject OF long dispatches
and editorial articles In all the morning
papers and tn some cases c0ngTatula tons
are also extended TO j. p. Morgan The
opinion expressed is q measure OF the
relief felt In England. The Standard says:
British consumers have more than an
altTuistic interest In the settlement OF
the strike. for. had u lasted another
month. the cost of coal must have risen
here to an unwelcome figure
The Daily News and the Daily Chron-
icle contend that President Roosevelts
action Is a great lesson for British states
men.
The Daily Telegraph says: American
trades unionism. by securing reference
to arbitration, has achieved a precedent
which may be far reaching. for IL sug-
gssts Enthusiastically that the spread OF
labor organization across the Atlantic
may prove TO be more rapid and power
ful check upon the trusts than either
tariff or federal amendment.
The Times. in an editorial articles. says:
at would be interesting TO know what
considerations President Roosevelt
pressed upon Mr. Mitchell in the final in
terview. They must have been weighty
ones 10 compel what is really an uneon-
ditional surrender and to convince Mr.
Mitchell that his game was hopeless.
In most quiet and unobtrusiye man
ner the president has done big and
entirely new thing. We are witnessing
not merely the ending of the coal strike,
but the definite entry OF poWertut gov
eminent upon a novel sphere of opera
ton President Roosevelt did not as
sumo HIS task as an amateur mediator.
He did not enter upon IL without count
Ing the cost or without the support or
conviction and ideas far out-running the
Ostensible subject matter OF his action.
His personal prestige and reputation are
enormously enhanced by the immediate
public service he has rendered and they
viii be UNNECESSARILY enhanced when the
American people grasp, as they rapidly
WILL the far larger issues involved in his
striking departure from precedent"
Then, referring 10 the dangers of trusts,
the article concludes with these words:
LET the Americans stick 10 their pres
ident and strengthen his hands. If there
Is any man who can show them the way
out OF the dangers threatening them that
man Is Roosevelt"
