LABOR COMMISSIONER
MAY SETTLE STRIKE
Law Under Which Federal
Aid May Be Invoked.
Ample Authority Believed Given to In
vestigate and Report-Interstate
Commission Without Power.

President Roosevelt made it known to
several of his callers yesterday that he
could not take steps toward the settle
ment of the anthracite coal strike in
the way suggested by the New York
Board of Trade and Transportation. He
gave as the reason OF his inability to
act in the present case the fact that the
law of 1883. under which the board sug-
gested that the President should pro-
coed. was repealed in 1898. President
Roosevelt. through Secretary Cortelyou.
sent a telegram to the board of trade to
this effect.
Another means of employing Federal
aid to settle the strike has been sug-
gested to the President This is the law
by which the Department of Labor was
authorized, which would allow Com
missioner of Labor Carroll d. Wright
to conduct an investigation into the coal
strike. and to make a report of his find
ings. Commissioner Wright is expected
to return to Washington today from
Massachusetts for the purpose OF dis
GUESSING the matter with the President.
There is a belief in some quarters that
ample authority exists to enable the De-
partment of Labor to examine into the
difficulty between the coal mine opera
tors and the miners. The following
clause of tine act of June 10, 1888, Great
ing the department, is quoted as provid-
ing the authority:
Charged to Investigate.
THE Commissioner of Labor is also
especially charged to investigate the
cause of, and the facts relating to, ali
controversies and disputes between en-
ployers and employees as they may oc-
cur, and which may tend to interfere
with the welfare Ct the people Of the
different States, and report thereon to
Congress"
Ii the commissioner should make az
investigation of the coal strike and
should not be able to make his report to
Congress before the coming adjourn
melt, 1t is believed that the report
might be made to the President. instead,
under the following paragraph of the
same Law:
He tthe Commissioner of Labor is
also authorized to make special reports
on particular subjects whenever required
to do so by the President or either House
of Congress, or when he shall think the
suhjec, in mis- charge REQUIRES it," ---
President Roosevelt in his telegram to
the Board of Trade and Transportation
said that although the law under which
the board had suggested that he proceed
had been repealed, he should be pleased
to see the committee in Washington.
Uutil 2 late hour it was his expectation
that the committee would be here today.
II is doubtful. however. whether the
President would have felt justified in ap-
pointing q Federal commission, as re-
quested. even If the Law of 1888 had not
been repealed. as its statutes were never
RI garded by Congress or Administration
officers as one of force or virility.
Chairman Knapp, of the Interstate
Commerce Commission, made the fol-
lowing statement yesterday:

STRIKERS HELD FOR CONTEMPT.
Judge Keller at Charleston, W. Va,
Imposes Fines.

In the miners contempt cases at Charles

John Richards and his associates guilty OF
contempt and fined them s. and costs each.
holding them committed until the fines
were paid or bail given. Richards is presI-

Judge Keller first decided the question of
Jurisdiction, holding that having jurisdic-
ton OF the nonresident parties against
whom the bill was filed gave the court ju-
risdictIon over anybody who was confed-
Grated with them. no matter where such
persons resided. The testimony, he said
clearly proved a confederation between the
defendants named in this case.
On the question Of what 1t took to consti-
tute violation Of the injunction order he
held that II did not require entry upon the
property forbidden, but that to go near
enough to 1t with such force as would have
the effect TO intimidats the men who
were at work in the mines was such vio-

When a number Of deputy sheriffs reached
the place the crowd dispersed. 1t is said
an attempt will be made to resume work
tomorrow.
The presidents of the local assemblies of
the United Mine Workers of the Wilkes
barre district met here today and adopted
resolutions condemning Rev. Father
O'Reilly Of Shenandoah for his criticism
of the officers Of the United Mine Work
ers. President Mitchell and the district
presidents were eulogized for their efforts
to better the condition of the miners.
President Mitchell addressed a personal
letter to the Shenandoah clergyman, taking
exceptions to certain remarks alleged to
have been made by him in his church
last Sunday. Rev. O'Reilly sent a curt re-
ply, saying that Mr.. Mitchell had no right
to criticise his sermons.

SPOKEN of as a democratic candidate for
governor Of Kentucky, and also for Presi-
dent Of the United States, caused sensa-
ton in political circles of the state tonight
by announcing that he was not a candidate
for the governorship, that he could not
fight machine, and that he could not hold
an office that could be purchased with
money In an address to the democrats of
the state he says, In part:
Since SO much has been said on the sub
ject without authorization of mine 1t seems
proper that should in some public manner
declare that I shall not be a candidate for
governor of Kentucky.
Although / have never had a machine I
am not stranger either to the character

1 lack some points of vantage in case I
wanted to construct a machine for my own
purpose. But no unclean dollar has ever

people to write Governor of Kentucky on
