Barre evening telegram. (Barre, Vt.) 1898-19??, 1902-10-10

Mitchell of the United Mine Workers
OF America has refused to comply with
the appeal of President Roosevelt to
call the strike off. His letter to the
president, which has just been made
public at the White House, says that
the responsibility for the continuance
of the strike should be placed upon
those who have refused arbitration.
Following is the text of the letter:
Hon. Theodore Roosevelt. President of the
| United States, Washington. d. c.:
| Dear Sir-Hon. Carroll d. Wright has
no doubt reported to you the delivery of
your message to me last Monday and nv
statement to him that should take your
| suggestion under advisement although |
| did not look upon it with favor. Since
| that time ! have consulted with our dis
trlct presidents, who concur fully in my
views.
We desire to assure you again that we
feel keenly the responsibility of our posi-
ton and the gravity of the situation, and
IL would give us great pleasure to take
any action which would bring this coal
strike to an end in a manner that would
safeguard the interests of our constitu-
ents.
| In proposing that there be an immediate
resumption of coal mining upon the con-
dtlons we suggested in the conference at
the White House we believed that we
had gone more than half way and had
met your wishes. 1t is unnecessary in
TINS letter to refer to the malicious as
sault made upon us in the response of the
coal operators We feel confident that
YOU must have been impressed with the
fairness of our proposition and the insin-
certify of those who maligned U.s.
Having in mind our experience with the
he
reason to feel any degree of confidence in
their Willingness to do us justice in the
future and, inasmuch as they have re-
fused to accept the decision Of tribunal
selected by you and inasmuch as there
is no law through which you could en-
force the findings of the commission YOU
suggest we respectfully decline to ad-
wise our people to return to work simply
upon the hope that the coal operators
might be induced or forced to comply
with the recommendations of your com
mission.
went more than half way in our proposal
at Washington. and we do not feel that |
we should be asked to make further sac |
riflce. We appreciate your solcitude for |
the people OF our country, who are now |
and will be subjected to great suffering |
and inconvenience by prolongation of |
the coal strike and we feel that the onus
or this terrible state Of affairs should be
placed upon the side which has refused to
defer TO fair and impartial investigation.
am, respectfully,

Prominent Politicians and Noted La
Dor Leaders Meet In Separate Con-
ference, With Edward Laute rbach
Acting as an Intermediary For the
Two Parties-Assertion Made That
Strike Is Already Virtually Over.
Settlement Of Details Alone Being
Lacking.
J New York, Oct. lott is believed in
many quarters that the end of the great
anthracite coal strike is at least in
sight.
During the day what is asserted to
he the most momentous of the many
conferences since the strike began was
held in this city.
On the one side We're Governor h. b.
Odell. United States Senators Platt of
New York and Quay of Pennsylvania,
Edward Lauterb .ch and other pron-
nelt politicians. Mn the other side were
I John Mitchell, president of the United
Mine Workers union; District Presi-
dents Fahcy, Duffy and Nichols; Dan
lei J. keefe. president of the Interna-
! tional Longshoremen's union, and 9th
en- prominent labor leaders and mem
bcrs of the National Civic federation.
Acting as an intermediary for the two
sides was Edward Lauterbach.
Whatever the nature of the PROPOSE
ton. it was learned that the influence
OF the men who are trying to bring
about the settlement was brought to
bear directly on j. Pierpont Morgan.
His office was the channel through
which ran the currents of sentiment
from both sides.
The political confcrecs met in Sen
alor Platt's office, the labor conferoes
in the Equitable building. After Mr..
Mitchell had returned to his hotel from
The Equitable building he said;
AS a result of what | have Just |
done ! am going to have a conference !
with District Presidents Fahv. Duffy |
and Nichols Until after that confer
cnce | shall have nothing to say. and |
maybe not then.''
y prominent labor leader of this city
who is close friend of Mr.. MITCHELL
declares that the strike is practically 1
ended. All that remains. according TO
this gentleman. is ii settlement of de-
tails.

AGAINST RAILWAYS
American Association Discusses
Some Interesting Matters.
.Antagonism to Railway Interests Even
In the Courts and Before Juries.

ty-hrst annual meeting Of the Ameri-
can Street Railway association. Pres
ident Herbert vreeland Of the associa-
ton, who is the head of the Metropoli-
tan Street Railway company Of New
York, briefly replied to Mayor VIM.
Maybury's address OF welcome TO the
delegates, after which be severely ar
rsigned the present day attitude of the
public, of municipal assemblies and
state legislatures toward street railway
interests, He charged that notwith-
standing the fact that inviolsability Of
contract was one of the very funda-
mental principles Of American govern
ment, contracts between municipal
titles and street railway companies
were apparently to be binding only
upon the companies, the contracts be-
ing infringed constantly by new taxes
and new regulations.
Even in the courts and before
juries there is an attitude of antagon-
ism towards railway interests, 4" said
Mr.. vreelsnd, although in almost
any suit at law other than one affect.
ing our interests the first aim is to
procure an unbiased jury"
President Vreeland declared that
one Of the points street railway men
would have to gain in the near future
was the free interchange of freight
oars between electric and steam rail
roads. He showed that during the
year 1901 capital invested IN street
railways in the United States had been
increased by s477, 6O5,002 and the
mileage by 2,594 miles
The report of Secretary Treasurer
7. Q. Pennington showed that Of the
present membership of 19l companies
