NO SUBSIDIARY SILVER.
Action Of the Philippine Commission
as to Coinage.

Information received here is to the effect
that the Philippine commission has de-
cided not to complicate the temporary
financial system of the Philippines by coin
ing subsidiary silver, as authorized by the
provisions of the bill passed by the last
Congress for the civil government of the
islands. The commission has reached the
conclusion that subsidiary silver would add
to the unsatisfactory conditions already in
existence. The commission prefers to again
submit to Congress the needs of a gold
standard system for the islands and to in
sist upon that. The commission wants a
gold reserve for the redemption of silver
collars and other silver similar to the
financial system of this country The COM
mission year ago recommended the coin
age OF silver dollars redeemable in gold.
Ihe House passed gold standard bill and
the Senate free silver measure The out
come of the disagreement was a provision
to allow the coinage of subsidiary silver.

to Be Heard.

The interstate commerce commission will
tomorrow hear arguments in the case Of
s. Marten agt. the Louisville and Nashville
Railway Company. In this case the COM
plainant alleges that the defendants rates

troit, Mich, are % cents per 100 lbs, while
for the longer distance from Nashville the
rate is 20 cents per 100 lbs. thereby SUBJ
jecting the complainant, his traffic and the
location from which he makes shipments to
undue and unreasonable prejudice and dis
advantage and gives similar shipments from
Nashville and to that locality undue and
unreasonable preference and advantage.
which is in violation of sections 1, and 4
of the act to regulate commerce.
The argument in this case before the COM

MINERS BEGIN WORK
Clearing Up Before Resump-
tion Tomorrow.
SOME TURNED AWAY
THEIR PLACES HELD BY NON
UNION MEN.
They Are Mostly Men Employed
About the Steam Plants
at the Mines.
SOME TURNED AWAY

WILKESBARRE, Pa, October 22-Thou-
sands of men began work today repairing
the mines and placing the colieries in con-
ditiOn for the general resumption of coal
mining, which will take place throughout
the anthracite region tomorrow. Those
men who directly engaged In cutting
and hauling coal Will not, under the decision
Of the convention. return to the mines until
tomorrow
While there We're thousands of men who
were able to again begin earning their daily
bread today, there were hundreds who were
disappointed when they applied TO the su-
perintendents of the colieres where they
were formerly employed. They were prin-
cipally steam men, engineers, firemen and
pump runners who struck on June for
eight-hour day and also to help the miners
win their battle. These men wanted their
old places back, but in many instances the
company officials refused to discharge those
who stood by them during the strike. There
were many in the Wyoming valley, how
ever, who were fortunate enough to find
employment.
Companies Will Not Discriminate.
The company officials maintain they will
not discriminate against union or non-union
men, and that work will be given all when
there are vacancies. During the strike the
companies We're compelled to employ many
incompetent men to help keep the mines
free from water or from Squeezing as
the result of the lack of proper timbering.
The majority of these Workmen are still In
the employ of the companies, and the
strikers feel they will gradually be dis
missed and the more competent workmen
engaged.
A mine worker who came into the union
headquarters from South WIkesbarre 10
day said:
The superintendents are turning down a
good many men on the ground that they
are not needed. This is only a bluff and
they will be glad to get men in a day
or two. The workmen they have are in
most cases green and won't be tolerated
about the collieries when the mines begin
working full time to catch up with th
take the risk of having men killed or mines
wrecked through the mistake of some new
man"
Status of Non-Union Men.
Although the strike is over, the path of
the non-union workman is still a thorny
one. They ere disiked by the unionists
and it is not expected the relations between
them Will be improved when they get into
the mines together. Reports were received
here today that scores of the non-union
men have given up their positions ana are
leaving the region.
President Mitchell today began the work
OF preparing the miners side of the case
for presentation to the arbitration commls-
sion. He will be the leading represen .ative
of the workmen before the tribunal and
will gather around him such experts in an
thracite mining as will be necessary to
properly present his case to the conmls-
sion. He said today he did not knox when
he would make his first appearance before
the commission.

ONLY A CRAZY MAN.
Report of Anarchist at Elysee Palace
Greatly Exaggerated.

PARIS, October 22.-The police commits
sary attached TO the Elysee Palace says the
report published In the Figaro this morning
of the alleged attempt of'a dangerous an
archist to seek an opportunity to assassinate
President Loubet, is much exaggerated. The
facts are that man of unbalanced mind
late on Monday evening tried TO climb the
railing in front of one of the gates of the
Elysee, beside sentry box. The sentry or
dered him away. The man talked incoher-
emily and finally had to be removed No
revolver or poignard was found on him.

o'BRIEN PRoDS BALFOUR.
President Roosevelt's Letter to Irish
League Convention Cited.

LONDON, October 22.-William OBrien
created a great deal of excitement among
his fellow nationalists in the house of COM
mons today by questioning Premier Balfour
regarding President Roosevelt's letter to
the convention Of the United Irish League
at Boston, Mass. Mr.. O'Brien asked the
premier if he had observed that Mr.. Roose
welt sent a letter and whether in view Of
future friendly relations between the
United States and Great Britain he could
make any announcement that this country
was not indisposed to learn wisdom regard
ing Irish affairs from the head of a great
and friendly nation.
The speaker promptly ruled the question
out of order. to the evident chagrin of the
nationalists, whose excitement increased
Mr.. O'Brien continued to press his point.
He urged that this letter of the President
was an international fact of the first i'm
portance to the future of Great Britain,
and that it would not be a friendly thing
to the head of a great nation that his letter
should be treated if the house of COM
mons was disposed to ''avenge an insult to
the chief secretary for Ireland and his re
movabes."
The speaker maintained his ruling, and
Mr.. OBrien tried to move an adjour nent
of the house to discuss the matter, It the
speaker ruled that it was not a matter of
definite Importance.
BOSTON, October 22.-Following is the
text of the letter sent by the Presidents
secretary to the United Irish League at it's
convention in this city:
WHITE HOUSE.
WASHINGTON, October 16. 1902.
Dear Sir: Your communication of recent
date has been received. and in reply | would
state that while the President very much
appreciates the cordial invitation extended
to him by your league, he regrets that his
public duties will prevent him from being
present on the occasion to which you refer.
Owing to the pressure upon his time Incl
dent to the preparation of his annual mes
sage to Congress, he Is at present unable to
accept any invitations.
Permit me in the Presidents behalf to
thank you, and through You the members
of your organization. for this courtesy, and
believe me very truly yours.

Interstate Commissions Action
Against Southern Lines.

The interstate commerce commission Is
going slowly in its action against railroads
of the south that are alleged to have vio-

The commission is exercising every posi-
BILE care in order to have the notice Of the
complaint served on the defendant railroad
companies contain the exact corporate
name Of each company, in order that no
technicality. with attendant annoying de-
lays, may be urged by the defendants. The
slightest deviation from the exact corporate
name of company would be sufficient 20
delay the entire hearing until the notice
should be given over again. 1t Is expected
the notice of the complaint will be issued
to the companies In a few days. It will
give the railroads twenty days to make
answer at the end of which time the COM
mission will fix time and place for the
hearing. On account Of the presence Of so
