CARROLL D. wRIGHT'S REPORT
The mi ssiOner of abOr's Re-
port On the Anthracite Miners
Strike Made Public.

Washington, Sept. 3.-1he report OF
Carroll ID. Wright, commissioner oil
labor, on the anthracite coal strike,
was made public Wednesday. Commits
sioner Wright finds that there is no
confidence existing between the en-
ployes and their employers This, he
believes, is one of ,.4e chief causes of
the difficulties between the operators
and miners. He suggests that it would
be reasonable and just for the opera
tors to concede at once a nine-hour
day for a period of six months as an
experiment. He suggests that there
should be organized a joint commit
teed on co%nciliation, composed of
representatives of the operators and
of a new union of anthracite en-
ployes, to which all grievances should
be referred Ior investigation, and
tlat their decision should be final and
binding upon all parties, and that
there should be no interference with
the n%on-union men.

Mr.. Craig signalled to the motorman
to stop, but he apparently paid no at
tention to the warning, and the car
came %plunging o n initswor of death.
A witness of the accident stated that
the motorman was speeding his car
in order to reach the club. The pres
i6ent. Gov. Crane and Secretary Cor
telyou were piled up in a heap. The
awe-stricken crowd which witnessed
the accident rushed to the presidents
carriage with no expectation that he
would be found alive. The president
was cut on the right side OF the face,
which is much swollen. Secret Serv-
ice Agent VIM Craig was killed out
right, and ID. J. Pratt, the driver of
the coach, sustained a fracture of
the skull, which it is feared will re-
suit fatally.
The Point OF Coli sion.
The accident happened at a point
about a mile and a half from this
city, neal the Pittsfiefld Country
club house. The president was en-
joying a coaching trip from Dalton,
NV = holilN. NhNit Nv BiN'i
dent spent the night, to Lenex, a dis
tance of 20 miles over the Berkshire
hills. The ear was in charge of Con-
ductor James Kelly, with Motorman
Luke ]. Madden on the front plat
form. The car struck the coach in the
rear and smashed in the back of the
vehicle, tipping it over and throwing
fits occupants to the ground. The car
was not badly damaged. Motorman
Madden and the conductor, Kelly,
were at once arrested and taken to
Pittsfield. Pratt, the driver of the
coach, was taken there also and
placed in the Pittsield hospital.
The Injuries Sustained.
The president, who in falling from
the coach, sustained only slight
bruises and a few scratches and Sec
rotary George b. Cortelyou, who suf-
fered similarly, with the exception
that he was cut on the head, with the
other members of the party, went to
the Country club. nearby, where their
wounds were dressed. In a short
time they proceeded to the Curtis ho-
tel, at Lenox, arriving there at II
o'clock. The president retained his
usual composure, although he was
solicitous for the rest of those in the
carriage. The excitement was in
tense and rumors flew thick and fast
that the president had been killed.
After remaining at the scene of the
accident an hour, the president de
termined to continue his journey tc
Stockbridge.
Proceeded TO s~tockbridge.
After a brief stop at Lenox, he was
driven to the train. In the next car
