Cant Find Any one of Her Children.

Can't FIND Any one OF Her Chiidren.
Mrs. Mary Elvira Gillespie has been
admitted to the hospital in Denver at
the age of 81. She is the mother of 81
children. She is very reticent about
her life, but says all her children were
born in twenty years following her
marriage to Col. William Gillespie of
Virginia. During the war and but a
year before the death of her husband
in the battle of Vicksburg the fifteen
pairs of twins were born. All but a
few of them lived, she says, but as
soon as they were able to go they
were turned loose TO shift for them
selves. Mrs. Gillespie does not know
where a single one of her progeny
lives.-Pittsburg Dispatch.

New Roads First Car.

The first car for use on the Wilkes
barre and Hazleton Railway has ar
rived and is attracting much attention.
1t is As feet long and is divided into two
sections, one for baggage, the other for
passengers. The baggage, part is fitted
up much the same as steam baggage
cars, with sliding doors at either side.
The passenger part is fitted up with
adjustable cane chairs arranged as in
the ordinary passenger coaches. 1t al
so contains a toilet room and water
tank. A saw, pick, axe, etc., are in a
glass case, easily reached in event of
accident.
Instead of the signal bell for starting
and stopping as used on the ordinary
trolley cars there is an air attachment,
and instead of the motorman standing
directly In the middle of the front of
the car to operate, there is private
apartment at the left. The wheels at
either end are guarded by wood fend-
er resembling steam engine cowcatch-
er 1t was built by the Brill Company,
Philadelphia, and its numbe is 2o2.
Work on the big tunnel has about
been completed. Most OF the men have
been dismissed and those who remain to
finish the balance of the work to be
performed will conclude tomorrow. The
electric road is completed from Halle
Park, where 1t connects with the Lehigh
Traction road, as far as the Hazletou
side of the tunnel.

All strikers who have not been dis
placed by machinery or whose positions
have not been filed, but who are on the
discharged list because of their alleged
connection with disorder or agitation,
are not to be reinstated.
When the subcommittee made Its re-
port this afternoon of the conference
with Mr.. Smith, the general committee
representing the employees unanimously
rejected the proposition and decided to
continue the strike.
So far as could be learned from the
strikers the action OF the committee In
rejecting such an unfair plan of settle
ment meets with the general approval
Of the men, and there is no longer any
doubt but that Coke Bros & Co.'s COL
leries will remain idle until the officials
prepare and offer . reasonable PROPOSE
tion.
Drlfton company's strikers are anx-
lous to bring about settlement of
their differences with their employers,
bat they are more anxious that any
settlement to which they are party
shall be fair and just and devoid of
phrases which can be afterward used to
nullify the seeming fairness OF the
plan.
Negotiations have now reached a
stage where brains are heeded on the
company's side. If the officials In
charge have not the ability to grapple
with the situation they should step
aside, temporarily at least, and give the
power to adjust the dispute to men
who are not prejudIced against those
with whom they must deal.
A move In the right direction now
means peace, a misstep means war, and
II the latter must come the strikers will
not be the first to cry for qnarter.
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1902-11-24

The latest proposition made by Coke
Bros. & Co. to their striking employees
was officially rejected this afternoon.
The substance of the proposition
which today met the fate OF its prede-
cessors was: II will employ all men
who are mentioned as being displaced
(by machinery, and by men actually en-
ployed) and will divide the work In
their line between them"
This is signed by Superintendent L. C.
Smith and was given to the striking en-
ployes' committee on Friday.
At meeting of the ommittee on Sat
urday the ambiguous wording OF the
proposition was the subject Of much
discussion, and a subcommittee was
chosen to call upon the superintendent
to ascertain exactly what was meant.
The subcommittee performed its
duty at o'clock this morning. The
phrase relating to the division OF work
was explained by Mr.. Smith to mean
that the strikers will not divide the
work at the collieries with those who
are now filling their positions, but with
each other only at positions in their line
not now filled by workman.
To illustrate this more clearly the
case of the twenty-five blacklisted
steam men at Drifton may be taken
Their positions are filled by probably
eighteen non-unionists. The twenty-five
strikers will be re.employed and each
on his turn will work at one OF the four
untitled positions. This would give
each striking steam man at Drifton
three to four days work month, while
the non-unionst will continue to have
steady employment.
The cases Of employees In other depart
ments would be, according to the propo-
stion, disposed OF in similar manner.

COMPROMISE PLAN.
Miners and Operators Likely to Agree
Upon Terms of Settlement.


The Anthracite Coal Strike Commits
sion adjourned on Saturday until De-
cember 8, and it is the expectation that
when the arbitrators again meet an
agreement will have been reached for
submission to and approval of the conf
missioners. Attorneys on both sides
predict that the commissioners will
make only one more trip to Scranton.
Wayne MacVeagh, whose visit to j.
Pierpont Morgan in New York had so
much to do with the commissions sub
sequent important proposal, said that
all the presidents of the coal companies
who had signed the letter suggesting
the appointment of the commission had
approved the general outlines OF the
plan OF settlement, leaving details of all
kinds for future adjustment.
Mr.. MacVeagh added that he could
not doubt that agreements satisfactory
to both parties would soon be reached,
and ii so the credit of the settlement
would be due to the conciiatory attitude
OF the presidents OF the coal companies,
as we'll as of Mr.. Mitchell and his coun-
sci, Mr.. Darrow and Mr.. Lloyd.
The original suggestion of friendly
conference, Mr.. MacVeagh said, came
from Judge Gray, speaking for the whole
commission.
Before the arbtrators adjourned a sub
or "conciliation" com mittee was appoint
ed In order that the wishes of the com
mission may be officially voiced with re-
gard to any matter that might arise in
the interval. The commissioners want
it understood that whatever is agreed
upon must have their full approval.
In connection with the committee,
which is made up Of Commissioners
Watkins, Parker and Clark, the com
mission Saturday afternoon called into
conference as many attorneys represent
Ing all the parties as could be gathered
on short notice, and stated to them its
attitude.
The proposition was made on COM
promise basis and negotiations, it is ex-
pected, will at once be entered upon,
with reasonable hope OF a settlement
with the aid of the arbitrators. The
rough proposition, which is to form the
basis OF negotiations, is 10 per cent
increase In wages, nine hour day, and
trade agreements between the miners
and the companies by whom they are
employed. The only one of the four
demands not touched upon is that OF
the weighing OF coal by the legal ton.
While both sides have expressed the
willingness to settle their differences
among themselves, it is not to be con-
strued that it carries with it the accep-
tance OF the terms proposed. They are
mentioned only as basis, 1t is under
stood, from which settlement is to be
effected. 1t is possible that the fonnda-
tion already laid can be wrecked by
either party holding out too strongly
against some question.
From New York comes a report that
the latest proposition to settle the strike
outside of the commission was the
direct result Of the oustng Of Alfred
Walter as president of the Lehigh Val
ley Railroad.
1t is said that Mr.. Walter would have
told plain truths on the witness stand
that might have seriously embarrassed
the operators. Mr.. Walter refuses to
discuss this report.
