Debs case. These considerations
were called to the attention OF the
president and the attorney genera
last June.
The anthracite coal companies are
making every effort to mine coal as
rapidly as possible. They are ODD
structed by the failure OF the STATE
authorities to fully protect those VINO
desire to work for them and by the
failure of the national government TO
enforce the statute under which the
mine workers association has been
already held to De illegal AS soon
as action Of that sort Is effectively
taken there can be no doubt that the
supply of coal AyiIl be ample.
Thomas P. Fowler, president New
York, Ontario and Western Railway
company, briefly stated that he sup
ported the statements Of the other
operators, but later on would make a
statement.
The president asked Mr.. Mitchell
If he had anything further to say.
Mr.. Mitchell said:
Mitchell renies Operators Charges.
The charge made by the gentlemen
that 20 murders have been committed
in the anthracite coal regions during
the present strike is untrue. If they
will name the men and will show that
they have committed the murders
will resign my position. That is a
fair proposition. Mr. President, that
is fair example Of how our organiza-
ton and our people are maligned.
The truth Of the matter is, as far as
l know, there have been seven deaths
unfortunately. No one regrets them
more than l do. Three OF them were
committed by the coal and iron police,
and no one else has been charged
with them. Goo knows the miners
do not escape being charged with
everything done there. They speak
about burnings. There was a reward
offered for burning. l can bring al
fidavits of hundred people If neces-
sary that the lightning caused one
burning that they charged to the
United Mine Workers. Mr.. President,
I have admitted on more than one
occasion that there has been some
lawlessness, but will say that large
portion Of such lawlessness has been
provoked by criminals who have been
brought into the anthracite regions to
recruit the coal and iron police. l
want to say, Mr.. President that feel
very keenlv the attacks made upon
me and my people, but / came here
with the intention of doing nothing
and saying nothing that would affect
reconciliation.
The Operators Said mo-"
The president then asked the rep
resentatives of the anthracite CON-
panies whether they would accept
Mr.. Mitchelps proposition. They an!
swered No" In response to q
further question from the president
they stated that they would have no
dealings whatever with Mr.. Mitchell
looking toward a settlement Of the
question at issue, and that they had
no other proposition to make save
what was contained in the statement
of Mr.. Baer, which, in effect, was
that if any man chose to resume work
and had a difficulty with his employer,
both should leave the settlement OF
the question to the judge Of the court
of common pleas in the district IN
which the mine was located.
At about o'clock the conference
was brought to a close without ag~ee-

DIR. GEORGES ADDRESS.
Former President of Geneva College
 Spoke to Men at Y. M. c. A.


 Those who were present at the meeting for men at the Young Mems Christian Association building Sunday afternoon enjoyed a rare treat pr. H. H. George of Pittsburg, Pa, formerly President of the Geneva College. addressed the meeting, taking for the basis of his remarks the words, Behold. I stand at the door and knock" His address p! owed him to be a thorough scholar and an able and inter- esting speaker. He held the attenti nof every man present until he was through. and after the meeting was closed almost very mar present came forward to ex- press his apprec ation of his earnest and practical address.
 The new thing in the physical depart m6 mt that is exciting the keenest interest among the ne nrbers Is the game of bas- ket ball. This game was invented at the Springfield Training School in 1901, and was the result of a deliberate effort to devise an interesting athle tic game with a minimum of objectionable features, and has been a great success Heretofore the Association gymnasium has been too mall to permit the game to be played but in the new gymnasium this will be one of the strong attractions. Tonight at B o'clock the gymnasium class will meet and engage in what promises to be the favorIte sport of the members, the game of basket ball.

your delegate was honored with a place on the Resolutions Committee. She had brought with her the resolutions on Children's Elaborate Entertainments, presented by the Mothers Union of Montgomery at the last annual conven- ton of the State Federation, and unan- imously adopted by that body. No reso- lutions were offered from the floor. but all were sent to the committee; 50, as a member of. the committee, your delegate was in "a position to urge the acceptance of this resolution. All members of the committee except one were, from the first, heartily in favor of it's acceptance. 'hnd this salady, ia Philadelphia woman of character end influence, was won to its acceptance by.a. change of the last clause. She thought 1t wise-and she is right not to make any protest against the &C., ton of the press in regard to these enter- tainments. And SO, after the preamble, the last clause as adopted by the Moth- CTS Congress- now reads: Resolved, That we depiore such entertainments and all other unnecessary display. and would urge simplicity in the lives of our chil- dren.''
