CHICAGO, July 2A-President John
Mitchell, of the United Mine Workers Of
America, said to-day that Judge Jackson's
decision would be laic before President
Roosevelt at once with protests and that
the President would be asked to intercede
in behalf of American citizenship The
cases will be carried to the United States
Supreme Court. President Mitchell said the
decision imperiled the rights of all Ameri-
cans in the courts.
President Mitchell left for WilkesDarre,
Pa, tonight where he will take charge of
the anthracite miners strike. He said he
was confident of success in winning the
strike because the men were standing solid
ly for their demands and not one had de-
serted the union so far he able to
learn. He said the miners were ready and
willing TO submit their side of the conten-
ton to any board of arbitration in the
country and were not at all fearful Of the
outcome.

LONDON, July al. Pierpont Morgan
was tonight the guest of honor at a re-
markable dinner given in the House of
Commons by Archibald White Maconochie,
member for the East division of Aberdeen
shire. On one side of the host sat Mr. Nor

Upton, Bart; Colonel Hunsicker, chair

many other leading English politicians and
business men, with a notable sprinkling of
Americans. The proceedings were informal
and the conversation peculiarly frank The
South African war, the international Yacht
races the shipping combine and King Ed
wards health were all discussed in turn.
Mr.. Morgan and Premier Balfour were
both particularly animated. One of those
present said 10 representative of the AS
ISOLATED Press:
1T was of the most remarka BILE
gatherings in which I ever took part
Practically a quorum of the Cabinet talked
over in the simplest. most open way the
leading American subjects which now
vitality concern both countries. To see Mr.
Morgan and Mr.. BalfOur together one could
scarcely imagine that the former had ever
been regarded as a DOGGY who threatened
England's commercial existence. If some
things which passed around that table
could be repeated IL would be an eye-Open-
er 10 those who are fOmenting commercial
rivalries between England and America"
From another source the representative
of the Associated Press learns that a feel
ing OF uneasinesS pervaded the diners with
regard 10 King Lfward's condition, even
leading members 0f the Cabinet displaying
nervousness lest his Majesty should be un-
able 10 fulfill his uties in the coronation
ceremony. This due TO no little extent
to the Statement - the doctors that the
King is not yet allowed to walk and TO the
somewhat natural apprehension that the
severe strain of a fortnight hence Will
prove too dangerous an undertaking.

old target ship Belle Isle, was once more
knocked 70 bits to-day by the modern guns

sisted of several hours fighting with nine
inch and siX-inch guns loaded with lyddite.
The Belle Isles bridge was blown up and
her deck was swept clear of its super
structure. The shells which burst IN Doard
raised clouds of fragments and splinters.
The Belle Isle was moored in a favorable
position and had been carefully armored
with modern plates. Every precaution had
been taken to prevent the results from be-
coming known, and In "A few days the
