BAROXS WANT FEDERAL TROOPS.
President Has Request, Through Gov.
Stone, Under Consideration aud
COnsulIs Gen. Goblin on
Condition.

Wilkesharre, Pa. Oct. 10.-The un,
expected departurefrom Wilkesharre
OF Brigadier-General Goblin, com.
manding the third brigade, Pennsyl-
wanna National Guard, led TO the
report that he had Comet to Washing,
ton to confer with President RnoSe-
welt, who desires To know the real
situation in the strike region.
Some of Gen. Gobin's aides admit.
ted that he is in Washington, and
one of them said his visit was at the
request of the President and with the
consent OF Gov. Stone.
The reason assigned for the mis-
sion of Gen. Goblin is that the oper-
ators have informed GOV. Stone that
in their view. the force Of 10000 M
tional guardsmen ON duty will not
permit them "a open their mines and
break the backbone Of the strike.
This conclusion has been forced on
the operators, it is said, by the GER
tainty of serious trouble if the pres
ent plan OF attempting to open the
mines is carried out under the super
vision of the national guard.
Some of the operators here have
Joined in II note To the governor,
urging him to request federal aid,
and the terms OF the request have
been made known To the president.
President Roosevelt is said to have
sent for Gen, Goblin To learn the eX-
act condition of affairs in the strike
region.
The authority for this statement
is an operator who has been conspic-
uous in the strike since its beginning
- weeks ago.

them.

before he knew what had happened
his horse had fallen. He dropped
behind n tree and returned the fire,
killing Romero instantly. BY this

AGUINALDo SET FREE
Filipino Leader Given His Liberty by
General Chaffee.

Manila, July 7.-As a result OF the
proclamation OF amnesty Of July 4,
the guard Of American soldiers has
been withdrawn from the house where
Aguinaldo lived in Manila. and Lieu
tenant Johnson. Aguinaldo's custodian
brought the Filipino yesterday to see
General Chaffee. 1t was the first meet
ing between the American general and
the leader of the Filipino revolution
Lieutenant William Z. McKinlay, OF
the Ninth Cavalary, acted as inter
prefer.
Aguinaldo was told that he was
free to 60 anywhere he pleased, and
General Chaffee asked him il he had
any complaint to make OF American
discourtesy or harshness. AguinaldC
replied that he had no such complaint
to make. He told General Chaffee
that he was going to visit friends at
his home in Cavite Viejo, in Cavite
province, and inquired what protec
tion the American authorities would
afford him. He seemed to be afraid tC
venture out. General Chaffee replied
that Aguinaldo would get the same
protection as any other citizen.
The former Filipino leader then
asked General Chaffee to prevent the
courts from requiring him to testify
in civil suits. General Chaffee replied
that he had no authority to grant this
request, and advised Aguinaldo tC
make a social call upon Acting Civil
Governor Wright. This Aguinaldo
said he would do, but that he would
go at night, as he was timid about ap
pearing on the streets in daylight.
The release OF the former Filipino
leader has renewed speculation as tc
possible vengeance upon him by
friends Of General Luna and his other
enemies. General Luna was a Fill
pino leader whom Aguinaldo caused to
be killed In 1899.
