| successive stations were TO the observer
an instructive sight. as the crowds, II
many varying moods, were swayed un:
! der the spell of the Presidents words
! When stop was made there was in
! variably rush of several hundred per
sons who fastened to sean every window
of the train, asking Where's the Presi
| dent %
Eager to See the President.
The rear platform habit seemed to be
little knogn at most of the rural sta
tions, and consequently there was great
| preliminary agitation shown lest eacl
native should miss the particular plat
| form down which the President might
| step to ingle with the crowd But as
this customary method of county cleo
tioneering is not followed by the IA
tons Chief Magistrate each towns in

posite The rear platform.
The Evidences of wonderment were al
ways I'll st apparent. Everyone wanted
to know what sort OF man was the
intimately by reading of him, yet whom
they had never seen and most of them,
never Tould again.
They looked. They were pleased with
the Presidents s rugged looks and aggres-
sive manner. This was especially pleas
ing tc the mountaineers of Kentucky.
Tennessee. and North Carolina. They
listened. They heard words and senii-
ments which seemed good to them al |
they heartily approved.
Want Another Visit Soon. :.
When the President told them that a
good American is the one who does his
duty wherever he happens to live or
whatever he happens to do, each indi-
vidual promptly recognized 1t as "A per-
sonal tribute 10 his own local career
and we'll ordered life. and was corre-
spondingly grateful that his worth was
so readily recognized. But when Mr.
Roosevelt told them how pleased he was
to look into their faces and see their
prosperity. and how glad he was to meet
them. they took off their hats 10 him and
added Il rapid-iire voley of: Thanks
TO yer. Kernel" Were glad toe"
Come again soon" and the like.
IN Ohio the President told the people
he did intend to come soon again on his
next trip. In the Southern States he ex-
pressed The hope that he could make an
other tour down that way, and from his
expressions OF interest in the people,
their progress and general development.

and Virginia, and touching two other
Maryland. at the very begin
ming of the trip, and Georgia, when the
Presidential party made the sightsee-
ing trip TO Chickamauga Park. Though
the greetings TO the President were
hearty at every stop along the whole
route, the enthusiasm for the President
was more marked at the latter points
on the journey.
A Warm Southern Welcome
The Southern crowds were much
more spontaneous than their fellow
countrymen up in West Virginia. At
Wheeling, as related In dispatches to
The Times from the Presidential train,
the complicated local political situation
was in the public mind. The popular
greeting along the line of the parade was
most cordial. but not of the vocferous
kind which prevailed further down in
Dixie land.
The Chattanooga visit. the main stop
of the tour. was one continuous round
of activity The Presidents busy Sun
day of sightseeing was succeeded by
effusive popular greetings the next day
at the Locomotive Firemen's conven-
ton. along the line of the parade and at
the courthouse review and speech
Knoxville's Bad Fortune.
Rain of the cloudburst fashion made
the Knoxville stop trife less comfort
able than 1t would otherwise have been,
but the President did not seem to mind
the downpour in the least. The pro-
gram was carried out in full and the
only local disappointment was that the
Presidents speech had to be cut short.
The Tennesseeans expressed considerable
envy of the fortunate Wheeling people.
to whom the President spoke for forty
one minutes. The Knoxville address
was barely fifteen.
The Land of the Sky seemed to have
been specially groomed by Dame Nature

To Meet the Governor.

President Mitchell will speak In Phila
delphia on Friday night, and on Satur-
day morning Will go to Harrisburg ant
meet the governor
As to what action IS proposed President
Mitchell will not talk. nor will he say
what the miners would accept If Gov
ernor Stone succeeded in effecting a
settlement Of the strike. Whether Gov
ernor Stone has a proposition to lay
before him that comes with the sanction
of J. Pierpont Morgan Is another question
that he cannot answer.
There were many rumors about the
region today that the operators were TO
post notices offering a 10 per cent in
crease TO the men individually IL they
return to work on Monday, but this was
denied by the operators here. and Presi-
dnt Mitchell said that he knew nothing
about it. Nor did he know what might
be done in the event of such an offer,
He stated again that convention of
the mine workers would have to con-
slider any question of settlement that was
proposed. and that the strike could not
be ended until the convention ended it.
Great Hope Prevails.
Today was marked by the great nope
that prevailed throughout the region
among the strikers that the end OF the
strike is in sight and that in few days
the news will come. Everything waited
on the verifcation of the rumor. and
in all circles the interest was great
Today ten more arrests were made
for completely in the rioting at Maltby
on Monday and the murder of Sisani

given hearing tomorrow.

fact that President Mitchell stated last
night that he would be glad to meet
Governor Stone or any representatives
OF the operators. and confer With them
regarding an honorable settlement OF
the strike, that they would ask him to
meet the governor al his convenience.
Colonel Richardson, who is Governor
stones right hand man. was then dis
patched to this city.
Mr.. Mitchell evidently expected us
coming. and as soon as he reached the
headquarters he was shown to Mr..
Mitchelrs office and spent ten minutes
with him.
