COAL DEALERS ANXIOUS.

Been Holding in Reserve.

Been Holding in Reserve.
NEW YORK. October 15.-The coal ope-
rators generally to-day were exceedingly
avcrse to discussing the coal situation
in any way. To those to whom the ques-
ton was put: won't YOU assent to a
change in the personnel Of the arbitration
commission proposed to deal with the
matters in dispute between the strikers
and the operators?" the answers Of the
various presidents may be summarized
in the reply made by President Trues-
dale. of the LaclSawanna, who said: II
would consider it highly improper to talk
about the matter at the present time.
Some coal dealers who were holding
anthracite yesterday at a certain price
per ton. averaging about SIS. to-day are
asking bids for coal which they have been
holding in reserve.

(Engineering News

(EnSlneerlnS NeWS.)
A combined water power and water sup
ply development is projected at Catskill,
N. Y 1t is proposed to impound the wat
tiers of Kaaterskill creek. to form lake
with an elevation of 325 feet, which will
furnish sufficient storage to equalize the
flow Of the stream throughout The year.
With ultimate development, 1t is esti-
mated that some 4OOO-horse-power can
be procured, and an immediae market
exists for it in neighboring towns ana
villages, and in the city of Hudson, just
across the Hudson river. From the water
thus stored a supply Of portable water
of high excellence may. be furnished to
the villages of Catskill and Athens, which

PRESIDENT FOR UNION LABOR
Secretary moody Says Roosevelt
stands for Organization by
Workmen.

KANSAS CITY, No., Oct. 15.-secretary
OF the Navy Moody addressed a big repub-
lican meeting In Kansas city, Kan, to-
night.
He gave q history of the coal strike and
said:
The strike feeling increased in bitterness
and we In the east grew a~pprehensive OF
the prospects for winter. Appeals were
made to the president, and after much de-
liberation and after consulting with his ad-
vtsers the president decided to make an et-
fort to compromise the difficulty.
The coal operators have apparently re-
scented the Interference of the president
in the coal strike. but / say IL is too late
to complain of the Organization OF labor.
Organized labor. like organized capital, Is
here to stay. and the administration Of
President Roosevelt stands for organized
labor. We believe that the voices OF both
organizations must be listened to-. both
must yield obedience to the laws OF the
land.
Mr.. Moody declared the constitution did
not contemplate that the army could be
used as a police force by the president. in
referring to the demand Of the operators
that United States troops be called In to
protect property. and" he said, '1f the
president had granted this demand he
would have been subject to impeachment"

Of President.

PITTsFIELD, Mass, Oct. 15.-The finding
In the inquest following the accident in
which President Roosevelts b~odyguard,
William Craig. was killed here last Septem-
Der, filed today, says that the unlawful
acts of James I. Kelly. conductor. and Eu-

that the ofhclals OF the road had given
any orders for II to be run otherwise than

and water consumers which has
been formed in this valley is a
step in the right direction to bring
about the ultimate settlement of
the water question. 1t seems to
us that it is now time for every
farmer and ditch owner in this
valley and Smith Valley to lay
aside all animosity towards each
other, join the association and put
their shoulders to the wheel and
shove the proposition of water
storage along. Not only every
farmer in these two vallies, but
every business man in the COM
munity should be member of the
association and lend what aid he
can towards the consummation of
a project which will, if carried out,
make of these two valleys one of
the finest. largest and most pros
porous agricultural districts on the
coast, and an ideal location for the
homeseeker.
1t is, of course, understood that
the first object of the association
to effect a settlement in the least
expensive way of the suit now
pending, wherein Miller & Lux
are plaintiffs and all the balance
of the farmers in the valley de-
PENDANTS. This suit is now in the
Circuit Court. There is much
speculation as to what the result
would be if carried to a termina-
ton. 1t is the opinion of every
attorney who has been consulted
the matter that the termination
of the present suit would simply
decide the right of Miller & Lux
as to that OF all the defendants
that is to say, it would establish
no rights as between the defend
ants themselves. AS the perpetu-
alton of the rights of all of the
defendants, as we'll as those of
Miller & Lux, is the end sought,
it seems to lis that the present
suit can result in very little good.
We have been informed that if
the present suit was out of the
way and the ditch owners would
all act in unison, that friendly
suit could be brought in the Dis
trict Court by one individual
against all the others, and that
decision in such case would vir-
tually perpetuate the rights of
every ditch owner in both vallies
up to the present time. This is
just what is wanted by all those
who are disposed to act fairly in
the matter. Surprising this is the
correct plan to pursue the first
work of the association should be
to get every ditch owner to become
member of the association.
With the great majority of the
people standing as unit the asso-
citation would, we believe, have
very little trouble, with the prop
er explanation an assurance, in
getting Miller & Lux to withdraw
the present suit and to stand in
for measure that would be bene-
fetal to all. Without practically
solid body for a conference in
the matter the plaintiff in the
present suit would probably not
recede step.
With the suit out of the way
and everybody's right perpetuated
the next step would be the estab-
lishment of an Irrigation District,
the storage of flood water and the
construction of a canal system
throughout the vallies which
would furnish water to every irri-
gable acre of land in them. This
