TRANSFERS STRIKE is AIR
Express Wagon Drivers Haven't
Gotten the order Through The
Joint Council Yet.

CHICAGO, Oct. 5.-Unless the pleadings of
the teamsters' joint council shall be needed
l 400 members of the Railway Express Driv-
ers' union will go on strike tomorrow morn
ing. The members Of the union at a meet
ing this afternoon by a practically unan-
imous vote decided to call an immediate
strike and their action was reported to the
joint council tonight for endorsement. The
council refused to sanction an immediate
strike and asked the men TO postpone ac-
tion for ten days. during which further ef-
fort might be made to bring about q peace
able solution Of the trouble.
The strike which was voted today is
aimed at all the express companies doing
business in Chicago. The companies re-
fuse to recognize the union or to pay the
scale demanded by the men. The men, on
the other hand. insist that their demands
shall be met. Neither side appears to be
willing to reeede from the position 1t has
taken. Unless the pleadings OF the Joint
council shall be needed every teamster en-
ployed by the express companies in Chicago
will quit work.
At a conference late tonight between the
Transfers Joint council and the executive
committee Of the Transfers union It was
decided to abide by the decision OF the
council and another effort will be made
to settle the dimculty poaceably. The men
we're anxious to go on strike tomorrow
morning, but after a good deal Of arguins
they were prevailed upon to withhold the
order to strike.

STRIKER HAS AN ARSENAL
Troopers Find His House Near scrnn-
ton Stocked with Plenty az
Ammunition.

SCRANTON. Pa, oct. 5.-Just before
daybreak this morning a squad Of Thir-
teenth regiment men, stationed near the
Grassy Island c%olliery. came across an
Italian striker named Giuseppe Papriello
proving about the outpost with a shot
gun. He fired in the direction in which
the soldiers were approaching. afterward
alleging he was shooting at a bird. Colonel
Watres had received word that Papricllo
was receiving arms and ammunition. and
this evening a detachment Of two COM
panies was sent to his house. Thc soldiers
found there 1900 rounds Of cartridges for
shotguns. No arms, however. were found.
Papriello was turned over to Sheriff Schadt.
Twice during last night s]entrios about
the Thirteenth's camp were stoned and
early in the evening a train bearing troops
from Olyphant to Birds Eye encountered g.
pile OF rocks and a felled tree across the
tracks. There Is a strong feeling prevs-
lent, especially among the businessmen.
that there should be a convention Of the
strikers called to pass on the Baer resolu-
tion, to pass to the courts any disagree
ment that cannot be satisfactorily adjusted
between the miners and the operators. The
operators declare that IL such convention
was held and a secret ballot taken on the
question of going back to work, the YER
dict would be almost unanimous.
Mine workers leaders say the PROPOSE
ton is a sham. intended to deceive the
public. 1t is wholly impracticable. they
say, and before the week is over locals
throughout the whole region will pass
resolutions commencing President Mitchell
for taking Il upon himself to ignore the
proposal.

MINERS THEIR HOPE

Continued from First Page.)
wish to escape the complication Of the
negotiations by heated public discussion at
this stage. That the parties 10 the confer
ence feel they have accomplished some
thing was made evident By the expressed
belief Of one Of the conferees that the
miners soon will be again at work.
VIII Not Resort 10 Violence.
One object of the conference was to cou-
slider some Of the propositions that have
been sent to the president for settling the
strike. These came from every section OF
the country and a large proportion from
men Of standing and reputation. At the
same time 1t is said that the suggestions
often are absurd and impracticsble. Others
Offering a possible solution already have
received attention.
Two constantly recurring propositions
for federal interference, one that United
States troops be sent into Pennsylvania
for the protection OF the men the operators
employ and the other that the mines be
seized by the general government are re-
1ected, no matter by whom urged. The
hrst conference developed the fact that
no federal interference by force was pos
sible and TO that conclusion the president
has firmly held. Some OF the impracticable
propositions made are offers to lease coal
mines In other sections OF the country to
the government so that It may furnish coal
to the people.
Mitchell Makes No Comment.
WILKEsBARRE. Pa. Oct. "a corre-
spondent Of the Associated Press tonight
asked President Mitchell. in the presence OF
Mr.. Weyle, what he heard from President
Roosevelt. and his reply was: why do
you ask? What have you hesrd?"
He was informed that the president and
his cabinet had held a long conference today
on the coal strike. and he was asked IL he
had heard from the presidents cabinet. His
answer this time was: II have not heard
from the cabinet"
Haze you heard directly or indirectly
from COMMISSIONS Wright"
II don't care to say anything"
Mr.. Mitchell was much interested in what
took place at Washington, but had nothing
to say regarding the proposed plans for
ending the strike.

tole France. one Of the most ardent cham
pions Of the revision Of the Dreyfus case.
NJ. France said that zola's work could be
compared only to that Of Tolstoi. but that
Tolstoi had built up a city OF resignation.
whereas the ideal Of zola had been work.
The speaker dwelt upon the democratic
aim OF the dead novelist's work. and then
burst into a powerful tribute 10 Zola's
part in the Dreyfus affair and a denun-
citation OF his enemies. He said he would
not maintain a cowardly silence over the
conn of bis friend, and spoke Of the sin
lister situation In the country. when the
pOpulace, excited by lies, believed it had
been betrayed and felt exaggerated. Then
lola wrote TO the president Of France that
terrible letter, In which he denounced for
gerry and felony. NJ. France then recalled
the wells Of rage and shouts Of death
which had pursued zola to the law court
during the long trial, which, he said. had
been judged in voluntary ignorance of the
case on false testimony and amid tho
rafting Of swords.
In those days. continued NJ. France,
many good citizens despaired Of the SAL
walton Of the fatherland and OF the moral
fortune OF the country, but all was saved;
Zola's courageous words had awakened
France. The consequences OF his action
were incalculable. A new order Of things
had been founded; better justice and a
deeper knowledge Of the rights OF all men
had come from his act"
Applause broke frequently from NJ.

crowd at the entrance OF the cemetery heard

majority of those who marched wore a red

Each delegation brought a wreath and de-
posted 1t beside the CONN. A deputation Of
miners In their working costumes carried
a bunch Of flowers fastened TO q pole. The
people plucked the flowers and ferns which
had strewn the coffin during the ceremony
and carried them away as souvenirs until
none was left. After the march past. the
coffin was placed in a temporary vault. The
proceedings were perfectly orderly until the

greatly excited, addressed a few words TO

lead to trouble, the police induced him and
Colonel Picquart to enter the lodge at the

the crowd had dispersed. A few scufies
occurred on the Boulevard de Flichy.
