OPERATORS SCARED.
Uneasy Lest They Be Not Able to In.
crease Coal Output.

New York Oct 9.--It develops now
that the coal operators are getting
scared over the strike situation. Out
wardly they announce their belief in
an increase in the output of the mines
under the protection of the Pennsyl
vania militia. AS to the per cent OF
such increase they give no figures,
which is the vital thing. Their uneasi-
ness arises over the fact that the ac-
tion of GOV. Stone has given them ev--
erything they asked. and it now de-
wolves upon them to mine coal. A 10
or Is per cent gain in the output will
not met demands II they are unable
to produce coal they will find themsel-
yes in an awkward position and one
which will cause uneasiness here.
Openly they have no criticism for
the Presidents efforts to bring about
an end to the strike. But among their
friends they say the good intentions of
the President have solidifed the min
ers and rendered strong the probability
they will not return to work. The
onus, therefore, of coal famine will
rest upon the operators, representing
capital

the miners almost unanimously voted
against returning to work he notified
the President that the strike must go
on. to the end.
Men Refuse to Resume Work.
Yesterday was the day set aside for
the men to vote on the strike. Their
voice was raised in one great chorus OF
determination to stay out A flood of
resolutions poured into the headquar-
tiers at Wilkesbarre, as the result of
mass meetings of every local in the
anthracite field, from Pottsville to
Forest City. Summed up, they de-
clared the confidence of the members
in President Mitchell and in district
officials, protested against the sending
of troops and the statement of the op--
orators that if proper protection was
afforded the mines could be started
up, and also declared against the
wholesale charges of violence.
In addition they proffered their SER
vices in the interest of the peace, and
declared that if the United States
troops were added to the militia al
ready in the field not a miner would
return to work.
The resolutions forwarded to Mr.
Mitchell varied in length from ten
words to as many hundred. Locals
124 and 1876 took the record for brew
ity, the first reading:
"We will stand firm and trust i'm.
plicitly in your leadership"
The second: Union voted to con-
tinue on strike regardless of the pres
ence of the soldiers.

Rumors in New York That End of
Strike is Near.


New York. Oct. 9.-The presence in
this city today of President Mitchell
and several prominent men who have
been more or less identified in recent
efforts to settle the coal strike has led
to many rumors that such end has
been attained or that negotiations
which hold fair promise of settle
ment were under way. 1t has been i'm
possible, however, to verify these re-
ports Mitchell himself, after a busy
morning and secret conference with
unknown parties, positively declined to
make any statement. Several of the
most prominent coal operators, when
questioned, replied that so far as they
knew nothing had been done. Sena-
tors Quay, Penrose and Platt We're in
conference during the forenoon but
are reticent as to the cause of their
council in the latter's office.

Mitchell has refused to comply with

went more than half way toward a
settlement in their proposal at the

not feel they should be asked to make
any further sacrifice.

me last Monday and my statement to
him that | should take your suggestion
under advisement. although | did not
look upon it with favor. Since that
lime have consulted with our district

views.
Feel Responsibility.
eve desire to assure to you again
that We feel keenly the responsibility
OF our position and the gravity of the
situation and it would give us great
pleasure to take any action which
would bring this coal strike to an end
in manner that would safeguard the
interests of our constituents.
Gone Half Way.
s.In proposing that there be imme-
Giate resumption of coal mining upon
the conditions we suggested in the
conference at the White House, we
believed that we had gone more than
half way and had met your wishes
1t is unnecessary in this letter to refer
to the malicious assault made upon us
. In the response of the coal operators
4 We feelR confident that you must have
been impressed with the fairness OF
our proposition, made in sincerity to
those who maligned us. Having in
mind our experience with the
coal operators in the past, we have
no reason to feel any degree OF conn
dence in their willingness to do lis

as they have refused to accept the de

and inasmuch as there is no law
through which you could enforce the
findings of the commission you sug

Dur people to return to work simply
upon the hope that the coal operators
might be induced or forced to comply
With the recommendations of youl
commission.
"As stated above, we believe that
we went more than half way in oul
proposal at Washington and do moi
teel that we should be asked to make
further sacrifice.
