BEGINS ITS WOKK
COAL ARITRATlON COMMISSION
HAS A HEARING.
Mitchell and Baer Briefly State
Their Respective Sides Of the
Questionable Latter Directing
to Mitchell as a Representative
Of the United Mine Workers.

Washington, u. c., Oct. 27.-The
arbitration commission met at 2
o'clock in the rooms of the interstate
commerce commission. The coal oper.
ators and President Mitchell, accom-.
panied by District President Fahey,
arrived about the same time, and the
opposing representatives seated them.
selves on opposite sides of the same
table. Shortly afterward Assistant Re.
corder Mosely appeared and announced
simply:
Gentlemen, the Commission"
The operators and Mitchell and Fahey
arose and stood while the members OF
the commission entered the room.
After calling the commission to order
Judge Gray, the president, briefly ex.
planned the situation, and said that he
would prefer to regard the case as SINH
lar to lawsuit, the miners being the
plaintiffs and the operators the defend
ants, and as both were present he
would like to hear from each.
Mitchell said that as plaintiff he
would be ready to present his testimony
next Monday. Judge Gray interrupted
and said: "All we want now is logi-
cal statement from each side and an
answer by the other, eliminating all ir.
relevant argument"
President Mitchell then made a state.
ment of few hundred words in length,
setting forth the claims of the United
Mine Wokers. He was followed by
President Baer of the Reading.
Baer began by objecting to the
presence of Mitchell at the conference
as president of the United Mine Work
ers before the commission. Baer said
that he would in no wise deal with that
organization, but that he had no objec.
tions to Mitchell's presence as repre-.
sentative of the miners of the anthra-
cite region. Baer announced that he
would urge as solution of the labor
problem an adoption of the readjust-
ment Of the sliding scale, which he
called a profit-sharihg system that gave
practical peace in the mining regions
for many years.
Mr.. Mitchell replied that the objec-
ton raised as to his status in the case
was not involved in tho case. He said
that he did not appear as representa-.
tive of the anthracite coal miners, and
distinctly RETAINED in his reply from
mentioning the union.
Presidents Baer and Thomas suggest.
ed to the commission that it immediate
ly proceed to the coal fields, in order
that 1t might be informed at the outset
as to conditions there.

Proof Against White Ants.

Seattle, Oct. 22.-Recent tests made
in the Philippines under federal juris-
diction have established the fact that
the hemlock from this state is the only
wood that white ants will not attack.
This is an important discovery, for
great difficulty has been experienced in
tropical countries with the ants, and
seemingly no wood impervious to their
attacks could be found. Lumbermen
are taking great deal of interest in
the report and believe eventually a
good demand for Washington hemlock
will result.

DEAD IN A DITCH.
Constable j. N. Wltite, of Dunsmuir
Probably Murdered.

Ashland, Or, Oct. 27.-There is con-
siderable excitement in Northern Cali
tornia over the discovery of the re-
mains of Constable J. N. White, Of
Dunsmuir, who, it is beiieved, was
murdered by hoboes. Scherer, pro-
prietor of the electric light company,
found the body of White, who was IS
years old, lying in the ditch that. serves
the company with power. There was
an ugly cash over his left temple, and
the back of his head was terribly
crushed.
The constable had been quite active
of late trying to rid the town of desper-
ate gangs of hoboes, who have been in
testing Dunsmuir.

RUSHING COAL TRAINS,
Roads Hurrying to Sup.
ply Market.

New York, Oct. 27.-With tracks
comparatively free from passenger
traffic, all the anthracite roads rushed
trains eastward on Sunday to fill the
gap in the coal marts caused by the
great strike. More than 10000 tons
reached the receiving yards and piers
in Jersey City and its neighborhood.
The coal will be divided into small lots
and put on the retail market with the
understanding that consumers shall not
be required to pay more than $3.50 for
a ton of it in any instance.
Some dealers even went so far as to
promise that they would sell it to the
poor at the rate of 10 cents bucket,
which really would be $500 ton.
Many dealers who still have coal bought
at high prices during the strike will
still charge $3.50 ton more than the
dealers who are handling the late
supply.

SMUGGLING CHINAMEN.
What Appears a Gigantic Con.
spiracy Has Come to Light.

w nat Appears uIAsdnttC OOu-
spiracy Has Come to Light.
Ell Paso, Tex, Oct. 2S.-What ap-
peared to be gigantic smuggling con-
spiracy for conveying contraband China
men from Mexico to California Las just
come to light. For the past six months
= half-dozen United States marshals
and secret service men have been work
ing on the case but the facts only be-
came public. 1t seems that the China
men have been slowed away in box cars
of outgoing freight trains and carried
as tar west as the California line.
For these services the Chinese agent
is said to have paid 800 for each man
struggled to Tuscon, and $3.50 for each
one carried to Yuma. 1t is reported
that certain trainmen had been dis
charged for participation in the con-
spiracy, but this report has not been
verified.

WEEKLY MARKET REVIEW.
cotton Breaks Heavily-Grain Mar.
kets a Shade Lower.

Cotton Breaks HeaviIy-Grain Mar
kets a Shade Lower.
Cotton bulls became discouraged
and sold out freely, causing a very
weak market. Early on Wednesday
July sold as low as S.s5c and August,
S.5Sc, which represented a decline of
q to 70 points, but by Thursday, the
loss had been nearly all, recovered. La
ter pressure was renewed with in
creased violence, and continued to the
close, which was weak at the lowest,
July, $3.50, August, S.43c. Il decline of
43 to A points. September lost SO
points, and October, o. The New
Orleans market suffered about the
same as New York.
Receipts small, especially at the in
terror points. The amount in sight for
the week was 64,979 bales, against So
426 last year. The weather was quite
favorable, and the new crop is GER
tainly receiving a good start.
The recent course of the market full
ly justifies the opinion expressed here
several times of late, that from now
on the amount of receipts would be of
minor Importance, and that the new
crop prospects would be the leading
factor in the market, with lower prices
if weather conditions were favorable.
1t must be remembered that cotton at
3 or 912c is high, and that very large
crop will make 1t low again. Nor is
speculation going to wait until a
large crop is reasonably assured. Bar
ring attempts at manipulation which
may or may not result successfully, it
seems unavoidable that the general
course of the market will be down.
ward until a much lower level of
prices is established unless crop pros
poets change for the worse
Grain markets were rather quiet,
and final quotations show only slight
changtS from those of the week before.
A feature was the relative weakness of
the more deferred deliveries in wheat
September dropping to as much as &c
under July. July wheat closed sc
lower at 74% @74Bc, September about
&c lower at 73Ac. July corn closed &c
lower at 61asc.
The bureau report on Monday was
quite bullish, especially as regards the
proportion of area abandoned. 1t in
Dictated a yield of winter wheat some
where near 100, 100000 bushels less than
last year. Moreover, it is expected the
area sown to spring wheat must show
a great decrease owing to unfavorable
planting conditions, and stocks of
wheat are decreasing very rapidly All
these, however, appear to have been
offset by recent fine weather, and re-
ported improvement in crops abroad.
OF course the volatile speculative tenn
per is mainly responsible for the fail
ure to advance under such preponder-
ating bullish influences. But this
temper proverbially changes with the
wind, and the prudent investor is rec
commended to avail of the easy spots
to buy little. There are lively times
ahead for the grain markets, both
wheat and corn, this summer.
