proposed that he shall act because he IS president. Any interference on his rart except by the request of both par ties would be construed into threat to use the great power of his office to coerce one side or the ether.
 If that were really so the action would be interference and not arbitra- tion If both sides should make re- quest that the president should select m arbitration committee he would be glad to do so. If such a request should be made with the agreement that the miners should be permitted to return to work pending the decision and both abide by the finding of the committee, the finding to be effective from the time the men went to work, the president would be glad to select such a com nittee. Unless both sides make the re- quest voluntarily he will not feel al liberty to interfere.

New York September Ex-Governor William A. Stone of Pennsylvania, who made an effort today to see what could be done toward ending the anthracite coal strike returned to Harrisburg, Pa. tonight without apparently having been able to accomplish a settlement.
 It was rumored that the governor s visit had proven successful, but George w. Perkins of J. P. Morgan & Co. de- nied tonight that there was any change in the situation. Word to the same et- feet was received by long-distance tele- phone from President Truesdale of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western railroad, who is out of town.
 Governor Stone was accompanied to the city by Attorney General Fikin of Pennsylvania and Senator Flynn of Ioittsburg. The three held a confer ence of several hours duration with r. A. B. Widener of Philadelphia in the offices of the United States Steel corporation.
 After the conference Widener wen' to see J. F. Morgan at the latter's office and asked him to use his influence tc end the strike. Ten minutes later h. returned to his fellow confsrees and told them that MT. Morgan had de- clined to interfere.
 President George r. Baer of tht Reading. President w. II. Truesdaie oi the I.ackawanna and President Thomas P. Fowler of the New York. Ontario and Western railroad held an informa conference. After it was oyer Presi- dent Fowler said the situation had beer gone over thoroughly in an informa way. MT. Fowler declared emphatlcal- ly there was no change in the atttud' of the operators and nothing could enc the strike but the unconditional sur render Of the miners.

Through Which Two Other Roads May Reach the Coast via Denver.

Chicago. September 9-The Denver gateway of the Union Pacific, which has remained closed since 1896, has been thrown open to the Rock Island road both for freight and passenger traffic and. to the Burlington for freight traf- lie.

 An official of the Hartman lines stat ed that there was nothing to be sald regarding the matter except that the Denver gateway was now wide open and that it remained for the Rock lsl- land officials to say how extensively 1t would be used for Pacific coast busi- ness. The new agreement regardlhs traffic was entered into early in Augusl. !. but had been kept a close secret unti! today.

Ten Members of One Family Wrong
fully Accused.
New York. April 19.-Dr. NJ. Neu-
staeder Of this city today received a
Cablegram from Vienna giving notice of
the release from prison of the SchEur
family, ten memb ers Of which have
been confined near there for some
time, on the charge of having murdered
Schulim Schnur-
The story of the charge, as told by
the doctor, is that the young man sup
posed to have been murdered was
about to become a Christian convert,
and to marry a Christian girl, nOtwith-
standing that he came from a well
known Jewish family of DOmrow, Ga
iicia. His parents, to avoid the con-
sequences of his proposed change of
faith. sent him to a brother in this
country and after his disappearance
were accused by the Christian peas
ants of the neighbOrhood with having
murdered him. They were arrested
and taken to jail in chains.
News of this reached the brother
here. and a committee was selected to
arrange to send the young man back,
in order to prove their innocence.
The committee, of which the doctor
was chairman, raised enough money
to carry ont its purpose, and announces
that young Schnur has already left
this country in care of an American.
