WASHINGTON, D. c.. Oct. S.-Though

that must be attended to- Judge VII

D. Flood were the unfortunate pair
whose duties made 1t necessary for them
to work through the departments to-day.
This is, at all times, the meanest part
of a Congressman's work, but on holi-
day like this, when all the departments
are closed and the whole city is turned
over to the G. A. R., 1t is almost hope
less. Both the Virginians, however, e1-

what they accomplished, as they were
lucky enough by calling early to find

WILKDSPARRE, PA, October s.-Un-
less President M,rcheu,s hurried s1sit
10 New York bears fruit. the end Of the.
mine workers strike seems long
way of. and Lhe prospects of sufficient
coal being mined to satisfy the pubic
demand is extremely poor.
Every local union OF the miners or
2anization throughout the hard coal belt
held special meetings. either last night
or to-day and resolved TO remain on
strike until the mine owners grant them
some concession. And while the reports
OF these meetings came pouring into
Wiikcsbarre President Mitchell dictated
q letter TO the President of the United
States. in which he gave his answer to.
the proposition that the strikers return
TO work and trust TO have their condt-.
tion improved through an investigating
commission What the. answer of the
miners chief is he refused TO
diyulge. but it is difficult to conceive
that with the replies of the local unions
piled around him. he could do otherwise
than respectfully decline the Presidents
proposition. Mr.. Mitchell sent his letter
TO Washington before he had heard from
all the locals. and at 5 o'clock in the
afternoon. accompanied by the three dis
trict presidents, left for New York
IT was a busy day for the miners. Of
