"a CONCESSION TO HUMANITY"
How the Operators Regard the Arbitra
tion PROPOSAL.

How the Operators Regard the Arbitra.
ton Proposal.
Now York Oct. 14.-President George
r. Baer Of the Philadelphia & Reading
railroad, was later in the day inclined to
talk little. He said he had come to
attend the regular weekly meeting Of the
Temple Iron company.
DO you consider the proposition
submitted to the president in the nature
OF recession from the stand taken by
the operators?' he was asked.
L happen to have drown the PROPOSE
ton myself" Mr.. Baer replied, lat least
had q, considerable part in preparing it,
and I may state that 1t embodies my
opinions and views. Further than that
eAnnot say anything
ASKED what he thought would be the
result Of the offer made to the president,
he replied:
L am not prophet
Mr.. Baer was asked whether the posi-
ton looked to immediate resumption on
full time.
I don't care to discuss that he said.
President Oliphant of the Delaware &
Hudson was asked if the public would
not look upon the proposition of the
operators as a concession to the miners.
1T Is not concession to the miners,
he replied. 1T Is concession to human
ity. 1t is a move taken to relieve the dis
tress prevalent throughout the country.
The need of coal was a serious matter
to contemplate. If the season had been
summer instead of winter, such state
ment might not have been called for
President Fowler on being asked what
influences, If any, induced the operators
to submit the differences with their men
TO arbitration. replied:
1T was chiefly due to the pressure of
public opinion, rather you might say,
public necessity We recognized that the
public would suffer from a scarcity OF
coal If something was not done soon and
We concluded that it would be honorable
TO overlook in a measure the rights OF
the people that we represent in order that
a way out Of a serious predicament might
be found. Many schools were getting
ready to shut down and still greater hard
ships might be suffered
DO you regard the offer of the opera
tors to arbitrate a partial back dowr
by them"
Il suppose many persons would take Il
that way" was the answer.
John Markle, the independent operator
when asked why he did not sign the state
ment Offering arbitration, declared he
had nothing to say.

Mr.. Wilson Is Called For.

Indianapolis, Oct. 14.-W. B. Wilson, Sec
retary and treasurer of the mine workers,
left this afternoon to meet President Nit
chell at Wilkesbarre. He admitted there
was to be conference but refused to dis
cuss the proposal Of the operators. He had
a, talk with Mr.. Mitchell over the long dis
lance telephone but refused to discuss
what passed between them. 1t Is pre-
sumed, however, that Wilson was sum-
moned to Wilkesbarre. Wilson would not
say whether a call for convention would
be issued.

THE EVIL EYE

Chas. H Yale and Sidney r. Ellis spec
taeular potpouri, The Evil Eye" which
appears at the Crawford Friday. Satur-
day and Saturday matinee, November :
and S, is new in everything excepting the
name. and even that the managers have
juggled with, connecting a subtitle that
is even more complicated than the origi
nal. Then it read or the Many Merry
Mishaps OF Md and the Weird and Won
derful Wanderings OF Nod" Now it
reads "Or the Further Funny Freaks Of
Md and the Continued Comical Contor-
tons Of Nod" This alteration was con-
sidered necessary TO inform the public
that the characters Of Mid and Nod were
to be furthered in their fun making and
continued in their peculiar eccentricities.
In this new edition their antics are almost
indescribahle, for every moment they ap-
pear is filed with such rapid startling
mishaps that only the sight can fully ap-
preciate them.
The e Brothers Kennard impersonat
these two irrepressible rapskallions and
being diminutive twins in real life, find
these characters in the mimic world quite
agreeable. Nothing but praise this season
has greeted THE Evil Eye" and those
lovers of the theatre will voice the same
sentiments This is the result OF so aug
menting and increasing the entertaining
qualities of the performance, that one can
only wonder how It could be accomplished
and yet the best of the old features have
been retained. One of the great features
that is new is the Phasey Troupe Of six
teen young English maidens, their first
appearance in this country. The poetry
Of grace lives in every move of their MIN
bic feet and beauty in every curve OF
form and face.

80 nights at the Manhattan theatre. New

matte literature and has been declared
the best work OF its infinitely gifted
author. Her Lord and Master" is
problem play. but not OF the guilty wo-

lem OF love and marriage. and OF the
awakening Of the soul TO the realities of

impulse an English nobIeIran. man OF
