NEW YORK, August 21.-For the next
few days the attention of the people of the
eastern section Of this country will be CEN
tered on the little group of railway presi-
dents and finanCiers who meet in this city
and who at word settle the coal
strike. VIII they do it? Present informal
tiOn, drawn from the most authentic
sources. is that they will not. except upon
their own terms. Those terms as hereto
fore pointed out, are the absolute ignoring
of the miners organization and the return
of the men to work old conditions, thus
presenting a virtual acknowledgment that
the strike is lost.
The public clamors for arbitration; the
railway presidents say that arbitration in
wolves the essence of the proposition
recognizing of the union. President Baer
of the Reading railway and President
TrueSdale of the Lackawanna have both
asserted within fOrty-eight hours in
mistakable language that the efforts to
settle the strike for political reasons will
be absolutely ignored. They do not care
snap for the political eXigenCies of Senator
Quay and the republican managers of
Pennsylvania They declare that this is a
question involving the future dividends of
their roads and the protection of the inter
eStS of their stockholders.

posed plaza were constructed it would favor
certain business house and do the city little or
good
President Cantor arguing in favor of the pro-
posed ordinance asserted that it made little diff
ference whether the ordinance were passed or
not If we don't pass it," said Mr. Cantor,
the Rapid Transit Commissioners will begin
condemnation proceedings. Then the Subway
Construction Company will get the benefit of 1t
