GOV. STONES CONFERENCE.
All Those Present Maintain Secrec!
as to the Action Taken.

All Those Present Maintain Secrecy
as to the Action Taken.
Harrisburg, Pa, Sept. 13.-Gov. Stone
declined to-day to divulge the result of
his conference with President Mitchell
last night at the executive mansion.
The Governor said the conditions were
such that he did not feel justified in
making statement, except to repeat
that the strike was discussed with the
best of feeling. M. K. McMullin of
Pittsburg, who came here with Mr.
Finn to attend the conference went
East on an early morning train and it
is presumed he has gone to New York
to meet ]. P. Morgan and tell him
what occurred at the conference.
District President Nichols is the
only one of the strike leaders who re-
manned in Harrisburg after the con-
ference. He is as reticent as the 9TH
ers who were present and would say
nothing when asked if he thought the
meeting would result in a settlement
of the strike. All the persons who
were present evidently have determin-
ed to make no statement for fear that
they might say something that would
interfere with their plans for settling
the strike.

THE APPOINTMENT OF RAY:
PRETTY SMOOTH POLITICS on
FART OF PRESIDENT.

PIeases Senator Plat just as the
New York State Convention Is
About to Meet and Removes From
the Head of the judiciary Conn
mittee of the House a Man Who Is
Decidedly Opposed to the Presi-
dents Views ON Legislation for
Control of Trusts.
Washington, Sept. 1S.-President
alive Ray of New York to be United
States district Judge for the Northern
district of New York is causing a great
deal of comment among politicians in
Washington.
1t is regarded as one of the shrewd-
est political moves that the President
has made. His own choice for the
place was Attorney General Davies of
New York, but Senator Plat urged the
appointment Of Mr.. Ray, who has been
one of his most loyal friends and sup
porters in New York politics. By
yielding to Senator Plat on the eve
of the New York state convention, the
President has made unlikely any ac-
ton in that convention that would be
adverse to him.
More important, however, than its
bearing on New York politics is the
effect that the removal of Judge Ray
from the House OF Representatives
will probably have on the Presidents
chances of success in carrying out his
antitrust policy. Ever since the ele-
af 20 he l.
ership Mr. Ray has been chairman of
the House Committee on the Judiciary,
the committee to which are referred
all bills looking to the regulation of
the trusts and all resolutions propos-
ing to give Congress more power to
deal with the subject of trust regula-
ton.
1t is, therefore. of supreme impor-
lance to the President that he should
have at the head of this committee
man in sympathy with his policy. This
Mr.. Ray distinctly is not. He does
not believe that Congress has any
power, under the constitution as it now
stands, to adopt such legislation as
the President believes is necessary, and
he is not in favor of amending the
constitution so as to give Congress the
necessary power.
By appointing Mr.. Ray to the bench,
LneH, the HTeSlQSnI mas remover one
of the most formidable obstacles to
antitrust legislation. He has done
more, for the removal of Mr.. Ray adj
vances to the head of the committee, If
the usual course of giving a vacant
Craftsmanship to the senior member is
followed. Representative John j. Jen-
kins of Wisconsin, who is one of the
leading Republican advocates of the
regulation of the trusts. Mr.. Jenkins
was one of the leaders in the attempt
to get legislation through the last Con-
gress, and in the first session of the
present Congress one of his first acts
was to introduce a resolution proposing
an amendment to the constitution.
AS is indicated by his proposed con-
stitutional amendment. Mr. Jenkins is
not an advocate of halfway measures.
Ee would put all corporations engaged
in any way in an interstate business
completely under the control of Con-
gress. He would require them to be
chartered by the national government
instead of by the state governments,
and would destroy their character as
state organizations entirely. The
state legislatures, in fact, would have
no more control over them than they
have at present over the national
banks.

London, Sept. 13.-With the arrival
of King Edward and Queen Alexandra
at Balmoral, his majesty's GONZALES
cence is officially declared TO be COM
plete. The fact that the King has
already INDUCED in deer stalking and
is now busy with grouse driving, cou-
pied with the departure of the Queen
for Copenhagen, next week, indicates
the confidence of those in attendance
upon him that his health is fully re-
stored Indeed, the King is enjoying
better health than for years. The
yachting tour of their majesties
around the English and Scotch coasts
was a lazy, drifting cruise. stopping
at many spots hitherto unvisited by
them. Their reception everywhere
demonstrated their personal popular
ity.
London is even more deserted than
usual this season. The American ex-
odus, which has been in progress
since the coronation, reached the max
imum this week. With the steamers

gle cabin. Ma }szsss
Mrs. George Cornsvallisss West who
was formerly Lady Randolph Church
i'll, has been comparing American and
English society, and has come to the
conclusion that the American invasion
has worked something of a revolution
in the social sphere, and in dress. So
cially, she thinks the Americans have
made English society more exclusive
than it was formerly. She says the
Americans have spent vast sums in
entertaining and living on a scale of
magnificence almost unknown be-
lore. IhlS mas led the Eng
lish arbiters of fashion to adopt
Americas lavish ways. until only few
of the wealthiest social leaders are able
to keep uD with the American pace. AS
a result many of them are unable to
longer participate in the grander func-
tons and the effect on society as a
whole is towards exclusiveness. Mrs.
West maintains that English women
have a much greater opportunity than
their American sisters to engage in
public and political affairs. The Eng.
-lish woman occupies nearly all her
working hours, with meetings .and
functions of various kinds, many of
them of a semi-public nature. In poll
itics the influence of English women is
direct. whereas it is so limited among
American women as to be inapprecia-
BILE.
In regard to dress, Mrs. West says
the American women have not been
content with spending large sums on
their clothes, but have introduced so
much art in fit, color and design that
American make is now accepted as a
guaranty of excellence.

WAS 1T BARREN of RESULTSs
Mitchell Has Nothing to Say of Re-
suits of the Conference.

suits of the Conference.
Wilkesbarre, Pa, Sept. 13-Presi-
dent Mitchell went to Scranton this
evening. Before his departure he was
asked whether he had any statement
to make regarding his conference with
Gov. Stone early this morning, He
said he had none. The reticence of
the chief officer OF the miners union
weighs heavily on the business and in
dustrial interests of the strike region,
who were hopeful that the meeting be-
tween the Governor and President
Mitchell would result in some plan for
a settlement of the strike. The silence
of Mr.. Mitchell is interpreted to mean
that the Harrisburg conference was
barren of results.
There is more or less activity at all
the collieries in this region tonight,
and 1t is said that some of the COM
panies will make desperate efforts to
resume work at many of the collieries
on Monday. Fifty men were sent to
the Conyngham mine of the Delaware
and Hudson Company tonight. The
company expects TO start work with a
good force of miners on Monday The
coal operators say the conference be-
tween Gov. Stone and President Mitch
ell was merely friendly talk and that
neither party to the conference SUBJ
mitted a proposition. The operators
think the crisis will come next week,
and that a break in the ranks of the
strikers is among the possibilities.
At strike headquarters President
Mitchelrs subordinates claim the COM
panies are in no better position to
start their collieries now than they
were three months ago, and that there
will be no break in the ranks of the
strikers.

THE VALUE of CHARCOAL
Few People Know How Useful 1t Is
In Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that charcoal
is the safest and most efficient disin-
fectant and purifier in nature, but few
realize it's value when taken into the
human system for the same cleansing
purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take of 1t the better it is not
gases and impurities always present in
the stomach and intestines and carries
them out of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating on
ions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves the complexion. it whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural
and eminently safe cathartic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels: it
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another, but probably the best
charcoal and the most for the money
is in Stuart's Absorbent Lozenges:
they are composed of the finest pow
dered Willow charcoal. and other
harmless antiseptics in tablet form or
rather in the form of large. pleasant
