THE MINERS CALLED.
MITCHELL ORDERS MEETINGS
FOR VOTE Or CONFIDENCE.
Wants Miners to Say Whether They
Approve His Course, at White
House Conference.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct. THE con-
ference between Mr.. Mitchell and his
district presidents continued until
11:15 p. m. and at 1880 O'Clock, five
minutes before the. national president
left for Buffalo, he gave - tAe press
the following statement, wAiCh was
hurriedly prepared after he returned
from Philadelphia last nights
'Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct. 6, 1902.
ITO District Secretaries and All Mine
Workers in the Anthracite Field:
You have no doubt read in the
daily papers the proceedings OF the
conference at the White House last
Friday, in which your oficers pro
posed an immediate resumption Of
work if the operators would agree
with us to refer the questions at issue
in the strike TO the decision OF the
president of the United States and a
tribunal named by him. You have
noted the reply of the presidents Of
the coal carrying roads, in which
they responded to our overtures by
denouncing your union, its members
and officers in tne most vehement and
malicious manner possible. They also
declared that q large majority Of the
striker would return to work if
given military protection. and they
demanded that the president send
United States troops to the coal
fields.
in order to demonstrate to the
people of our country that the state
ments of the operators are unfounded
and hat the mine workers are law
abiding citizens, the officers Of all
local unions should call mass meet
ings Of all mca on strike, union and
non-union, such meetings to be held
in each mining town at 2 o'clock
Wednesday afternoon, Oct. 8. We
know that the mine workers are not
restrained from going to work by fear
of bodily harm; and if this is the
sentiment prevailing at the meetings,
resolutions should be adopted en-
phatically declaring the statements
Of the operators to be untrue.
Advice to Commit No Lawessness.
I'VE also a.-vise that acts OF law
Iessness by the coal and iron police
and by strikers ne denounced and the
services Of members Of the union ten
dered the local authorities to pre-
serve law and order.
Great care should be exercised
that those on strike do not permit
themselves 20 be provoked by the
coal and iron police into the commits
sion of overt acts. The operators,
falling to break the strike and de-
prive you Of your well earned victory.
are now attempting to array public
sentiment against you by MAXIM
false claims that reign OF terror
exists in the coal fields. Be steadfast
and true while this struggle for liv-
ing wages and American conditions
Of employment is going on, and we
have no hesitancy in saying that vic
tory will be achieved in the not dis
tant future. The heart Of the nation
beats in sympathy with you and ali
good citizens favor our cause.
Do not fail to have resolutions
drafted in plain, temperate language;
telegraph them at our expense to
President Mitchell's headquarters i'm
Hediately upon the adjournment oe
meetings.

Sargent Saw Roosevelt.

Philadelphia, Oct. 7.-2resiient
Mitchell, of the United Mine Work
ers of America, paid a mysterious
visit to this city yesterday, and after
remaining here about six hours re-
turned to Wilkesbarre. Mr.. Mitchell
arrived here on the Buffalo express
at 1928 a. N. He was unattended and
no person met him at the station. Mr..
Mitchell passed out of the railroad
station to the street and from that
time until he reappeared at the sta
ton, shortly after noon, his move
ments are unknown. He checked his
grip at the Reading Terminal and
again disappeared, returning about l
o'clock and taking his luncheon in the
station restaurant. He then boarded
a train at 2:3U o'clock for Wilkes
barre.
1t was later learned that President
Mitchell had met Carroll D. Wright,
commissioner Of labor, but all efforts
to locate Mr.. Wright proved futile.
AS Mr.. Mitchell was about to board
the train for Wilkesbarre he was
asked if he mad met an emissary from
the president or ii he had received
any communication from Mr.. Roose-
welt. He declined to answer all
queries excepting those referring to
the situation in the coal regions,
which he said was unchanged.
Wouldn Reveal What Transpired.
Wilkesbarre, Pa, OCT 7.-President
Mitchell, OF the United Mine Workers
OF America, slipped out Of town be-
fore dawn yesterday morning for Phil
adelphia, where ne met Carroll d.
Wright, United States commissioned
Of labor, who is President Roosevelt
personal representative on matters
pertaining to the anthracite coal
strike. Mr.. Mitchell returned here
last night unaccompanied and made
the simple statement that he had met
the labor commissioner. He refused
absolutely TO discuss bis visit to Phil
adelphia, declined To say where in
Philadelphia he net Mr.. Wright or
what passed between them. Suisse
1 nC lulOA ~ ACpA =
OF the Associated Press that he saw
other gentlemen while there, but de-
clined to disclose their identity.
On the strength that Mr.. Wright is
close to President Roosevelt there
was a general impression here that
the commissioner carried message
from the chief executive to Mr..
Mitchell. A rumor, which could not
be verified, was in circulation here
last night that President Roosevelt
has appealed to Mr.. Mitchell to end
the strike in the cause Of humanity.
There is no one here In Mr.. Mitchell's
confidence except his three district
presidents, and it is doubtful if they
knew that he was in Philadelphia
until they arrived here during the day
and found him absent.
Interest in Mr.. Mitchel's mysteri-
GUS trip was intense all day and even
ing about headquarters. All the local
district leaders called and scores OF
mine workers were also in evidence.
No one seemed to know anything and
all were of the belief that some sort
Of move was contemplated. Imme-
diately after the arrival Of the strike
leader he was besieged, but he re
fused to talk

California olive growers are prepar-
ing to harvest their crop. In every
orchard in the state the trees are
loaded with the fruit, and the acreage
devoted to the cultivation Of olives is
much larger this year than ever be-
fore. In recent years the yearly crop
of olives seldom ran over 1000 barrels,
Or. taking seven barrels to the ton,
about 286 tons. The growers who sell
their olives as they come from the
trees have formerly received $50 ton
for their product, or about three cents
a pound. 1t costs one cent pound to
pick the fruit, thus allowing the grow
ers $40 ton for their olives. This
year the total crop of the state will
reach 500 tons, or $500 barrels, an in
crease of $500 barrels over last year
The price this year has dropped 80 1-3
per cent. Olives now bring only $40
ton as they come from the tree, half
OF which goes to the pickers, thus al
lowing the growers only $40 a ton
