Miners Of Different oplnisa. 40 80 IA.
On.r of Coal Presidents.

wilkesbarre. Oct. i5.-From a
thorough canvass OF the situation as
II now exists there is every Indication
for believing that the new arbitration
plan proposed by the presidents OF the
coal companies for ending the miners
strike will not be accepted In its pres
ent form. There Is n division OF opin-
ion among the etrikers, bat there Is
no doubt that a majority feel that the
offer to have the president Of the Unit
ed States select an arbitration COM
mission along the lines suggested by
the operators is not fair and that Il
unduly limits the president In making
up the board The miners, Il Is safe
20 say. will abide by the advice OF their
national president In whose Judgment
they have the utmost confidence
The rank and file OF the miners view
the new proposals in different lights.
Those who are opposed TO accepting
the new offer look upon the operators
latest move as a counter proposition
10 Mr. Mlichell's offer to arbltrate.
made in the temporary white House
al Washington. They compare the
two offers and pick out what they al
lege 20 De many flaws. Their greatest
objection TO Il Is that the operators die
tate to the president from what class
OF men ne shall select the arbitrators
and they charge the operators With
lack OF faith In the president when
they do not give him a free hand %
pick the men he wants. Another OBJ
lection to II Is that the president IS
limited TO four men In selecting the
jurist OF the commission. Neither are
they sure. they say. that labor would
be represented. because the proposal
docs not specifically say so, and they
add that they have no assurance that
"A man OF prominence. eminent az a
sociologlst" would cover this objection.
A great many OF the strikers think
the proposition should be accepted and
that the miners should trust 20 Presl-
dent Roosevelt and that he woulG do
the best ne can under the conditions
land down by the coal presidents. An
argument is made that Mr. Mitchell
could not well afford 20 turn down the
proposition after already Offering 90

members OF the commlsslo 10 "a be-

East Lynne" Coming

Familiar as the play of East

there is a certain charm about il that

of literary merit has ever been claim
ed for the play; its strength seems to
lie i'm Il faithful portrayal of the com
monest emotions of the human heart.
This, perhaps, explains in a measure

plays il well. Her costumes, made
for her in Paris. by NJ. Felix the cele-
brated man milliner, will be Il special

is naturally far above the average
repetorie limit in point of individual
and collective merit, each artist being

manner acceptable to all. Much care
has been bestowed upon the costumes
and scenic appointments of the play,
and a smooth. delightful performance
