ARBITRATION MIDDLE GROUND.
Ray of Hope to Which the President Is
Turninu.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. II. =
President Roosevelt is seeking every
method by which there may be federal
action in settling the coal strike. HIS
cabinet advisors have been requested
to look carefully into the laws which
may have bearing on the subject and
see If there is any statute under which
he can proceed. So far nothing has
been found.
There is one ray of hope, but it is
rather faint in view Of the attitude of
the coal operators. This is that some
mutual ground of arbitration may be
found. The miners are willing to con-
sent to arbitration Of all questions.
The operators admitted the principle
of arbitration to a limited extent in Of
fering to submit Individual cases of
disputes between employers and en-
plcyes to the courts of common pleas
III the districts where the disputes oc-
cur. What the president and his adj
visors are trying to ascertain is wheth-
err a middle ground of arbitration may
not be agreed upon. This plan, even
though it does not now give hope OF
success, is the only one In sight at
present Those who have discussed
the matter with the president think
that as the situation grows more acute
both parties, in the interest of public
welfare, may be induced to accept it or
something of similar nature.
That the president is very much in
earnest is shown from the conferences
on the subject that continue at the
White house. No official statement
could be obtained as to the progress OF
the administration work, although it
was admitted that there was a great
DEAL going on, which it would be in
expedient to make public at this time.
No intimation was given as to whether
the remark referred to the conferences
at the White house or other negotia-
tons.

secured clerkship in the recorders
Office, but after some time he quit the
pen and engaged in carpentering. Lat
er he gave that up and became an eX-
press messenger. In the meantime he
had been studying civil engineering and
in 1871 went to Indiana, where he Sc
cured the position of deputy surveyor
of Allen county, and a short time af-
terward became a division engineer of
the Cincinnati, Richmond and Fort
Wayne railroad. BY the resignation of
the chief engineer of the road he could
have succeeded to that position, but
by this time he had decided to study
law and make that his life profession.
He was then twenty three years Of
age. He came to Chicago and entered
the office of Mcclellan & Hedges and
two years later was admitted to the
bar.
Mr.. Cummins made his home in Chi
cago until 1878, when he removed to
Des Moines, Iowa. He did not be-
come prominent in politics until 1887,
when he was selected on account of his
personal popularity to lead an anti
prohibition fight as an independent,
and defeated the Republican candidate
for the Legislature. In 1896 he became
a member of the national Republican
committee, on which he served for four
years, and on Jan. 16, 1902, was in
augurated governor of Iowa. His chief
ambition at present is the United
States senate, and he makes open
avowal that he will land there. In
1894 he was a candidate for the po
sition, but was defeated by the late
Senator Gear, and he again entered
the field against Congressman Dolliver,
but the inside manipulation of the par
ty forces had decided that the latter
should be the winner.
On the tariff issue Mr.. Cummins has
always been less hidebound than his
party leaders. In his inaugural address
last January he virtually announced
his belief that the remedy for trust
evils was practical free trade.

Albert B. Cummins, governor of
Iowa, has been known to the country
for number of years and now, be-
cause Of recent events, has attained
distinct national recognition. The
iowa idea" as a tariff suggestion for
Republicans is undoubtedly the result
of his efforts and influence, and to its
embodiment in the party platform is
said to be due the refusal of Speaker
Henderson to accept a denomination for
congress in the Third Iowa district.
This position of Iowa that party safety
lies in a revision Of the tariff SO eff
fective as to deprive trusts of at least
a portion of their shelter has startled
the Republican leaders, for its eX-
preston Of popular sentiment which
they were anxious to suppress and
eliminate from the impending cam
paign. Gov. Cummins, however, Is the
kind of man to see that 1t shall not
be kept down, for he has strong and
aggressive personality, decided ability
and a capacity to hold and control
friends. He Is a well-equipped lawyer,
forceful and resourceful politician
and courageous in the expression Of his
views.
Albert B. Cummins was born at Car
michael, Greene county, Pa, Feb. Is,
1850, of Scotch Irish parents. He is
one of ten children, eight of whom are
living. and there has not been a death
in the family for the past forty years.
His family possessed little means, and
from the beginning his life had to be
strenuous. His living, his college, his
engineering and his legal education
were all self-earned. AS a boy he
passed through the public schools of
his native town and later entered the
Waynesburg academy. Having COM
leted his education there he followed
the much quoted advice of Horace
Greeley and started for the West. This
was in 1862 when he was nineteen
years DID, and Elkader, Iowa, was the
first place to strike his fancy as a loca-
ton in which to grow up. There he

Northwest at ITO a. M, was held up
five miles out of the city, about 1870
o'clock this morning.
Three men, all masked, boarded the
engine after waving lanterns and caus-
ing the engineer to stop the train. The
engineer and fireman were forced to
leave the cab and accompanied the rob-
bers to the express car. The express
messenger refused to open the door
and it was badly wrecked by dynamite,
but the messenger, William Lupton,
was uninjured. The big safe was blown
and the supposition is the robbers Sc
cured the contents, said to be valued
at $4,000. Only three shots were fired
and that was to brighten inquisitive
passengers and the brakeman who got
off to learn what was the trouble. The
train was brought back to Lincoln.
Trainmen say the robbers, after rifiine
the safe, slipped away in a corn field.
They believe there were more than the

salient facts of the era they are living
in as they are oblivious of legal obliga-
lions.
"ln these days of combinations by
capital on a scale and to an extent as
startling as 1t is unprecedented, can
they possibly imagine that labor is to
be denied an equivalent right of COM
bination? If they do it is only an
other instance of their complete indif-
ference to the law of the land.
"In 1894 receivers of a railroad were
brought into court on claim that Ia
borerS ought not to be discharged be-
cause of membership of a labor union.
Though the court was a federal court,
it sat in Pennsylvania, and the petit
TONERS got nothing from that court.
But what followed? In a year or two
Pennsylvania made it criminal Of
Tense to deprive a man Of work be-
cause he belonged to a labor union. In
1898 congress not only did the same
thing, but, in a statute providing for
the arbitration of labor disputes, eX-
pressly made labor organizations par
ties to such arbitration. This was in
addition to the previous legislation by
congress encouraging and providing
for the incorporation of labor unions.
In ignoring them, therefore, the coal
operators simply ignore and condemn
the law of the land.
Repuhlicanism Should Be Displaced.
'In the political campaign now going
on Republican orators are sure to wax
eloquent in deprecating change. To all
such oratory, while there are many
good answers, there is one that is con-
elusive.
Law supreme and equal for all men
is to the American people what the ark
Of the covenant was to the Jews of old.
While we have it, we need not fear for
our safety; when we lose 1t, we are far
advanced on the high road to ruin.
Hence If we would not enter upon that
road, change and the displacement of
Republicanism cannot come too soon or
too decisively."

lock at o'clock this morning. The
posse in pursuit of the robbers had
reached Ashland this evening without
having secured clue to the men and
are continuing the search.
Out With Bloodhounds.
Detective Malone with his blood
hounds is tonight at Louisville, Cass
county, thirty-five miles away, to which
place he followed seemingly positive
trail. He made one arrest there this
evening, but the suspect proved an
alibi.
There were four robbers, one Of
whom remained at some distance from
the scene Of the holdup, guarding the
horse and buggy in which they all es-
capped with the plumber. It is evident
the robbers separated, two on foot go
ing north and the others in the buggy
travelling eastward. Town marshals
and county sheriffs for forty miles
around Lincoln are on the outlook.
Estimates on the amount secured
from the Adams express safe range all
the way from $4,000 to $4,000. The
only authoritative statement is from
General Superintendent Calvert, of the
Burlington, who is positive the robbers
did not get over $4,000.
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1902-10-12

three robbers seen. Officials Of the
Burlington have, offered reward Of
$1,000 for the capture of the gang.
Heavy Load to Carry.
The booty Of the robbers consisted
principally of gold coin. This made the
burden of the robbers exceedingly
heavy and accounts for the broad trail
discovered by Chief Hoagland. The
robbery was originally planned to take
place at ST. Joseph and the railroad
men were on the lookout. One of the
men in the plot tipped" the deal oft
to the company and this. probably ac-
counts for the shifting of the crime to
Lincoln.
Messenger Lupton concealed a large
amount of money contained In the local
safe, placing it under the stove. The
money contained in the through safe
was in gold and silver mostly, and was
carried away in a mail pouch. The rob-
bers made their escape in two rigs, both
of which they had stolen. One had
two horses attached and the other was
a single rig. The railroad and express
officials have a good description Of the
vehicles and horses and a fair descrip-
ton of the men. One of the rigs Is
thought to have passed through Have

Saws We Should Turn to Briquettes.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct IA
report upon the manufacture of
briquettes comes from Frank Mason,
consul general at Berlin, who feels
that the time is ripe, in view of the
great Pennsylvania coal strike and the
consequent scarcity Of anthracite, for
Americans to take up the manufacture
Of this substitute fuel.
Mr.. Mason says there are eighty
nine manufacturers of this fuel in
Germany, many of them producing
more than 100000 tons annually. Mr..
Mason shows that briquettes may be
produced from brown coal or carbon
lied peat with or without binder, or
from the waste of soft coal, the result
being smooth, glistening briquettes of
black or dark brown color, which are
practically snokeless and leave only
a reddish brown ash. From the abund-
ance of the material in America, Mr..
Mason says 1t seems the fuel might be
manufactured very cheapely as sub
stit11te for anthracite.

one that will be improved by talking"
It was stated on excellent authority
