SENATOR HANNA'S POSITION
No Doubt But That Petition From $780,

If the Central Federation Union OF

Roosevelt to call Congress together in
special session TO take action to cad

semtling Of Congress before its regular
December term is net believed here.
One very good reason for this belief
is that Congress cogid 90 noIhi1g 70

pass resolutions urging its termination.
While these would be expressive CT the
national demand fer the cessation Of the

Corzress, Hands Ted


A compulsory arbitration Law might
be suggested, but it is not believed that
it could be passed, because even the Ia
Dor unions would be opposed to such
Legislation. Congress has no power over
either the miners or the coal operators.
so II is difsuIt to see what object will
be reached if the Federated Unions
carry out their reported intention.
Operators Dislike Hanna.
II this connection it is an interesting
fact, heretofore overlooked. that Sena-
tor Hanna position as chairman OF the
Civic Federation Is one or the reasons
for the failure OF the repeated efforts Of
that body to bring about arbitration Of
the coal strike. There is no love lost
between the coal operators and Senator
Hanna
When the coal strike Of 1900 was on.
during the campaign for the re-eIec-
zion of President Mckinley, Senator
Hanna declared 10 The operators thar
he Presidents election and the future
Of the Republican party depended upon
settlement Of the strike Ee mad
plea so effective and brought such pow
erfui pressure to bear that the operat-
ors were compelled to yield some o. 5be
points upon which they were contend
ing. Nov. in the present strike. It is
well known that Senator Hanna sym
pathizes with the miners AMI that b.
believes that the operators are n The
wrong.
Campaign Against Trusts.
With this antagonism 10 start with,
and the additional fact that the opera
tors do not feel so dependent upon the
Republican party now that it is prepar-
ing to make a campaign against the
trusts, 1t is thought possible that some
other man than Senator Hanna as
chairman Of The Civic Federation might
have achieved better results in the way
of arbitration
1t is perhaps a realization Of this that
caused Mr. Hanna in Buffalo yesterday
TO declare, sorrowfulIy. that he would
make no further efforts to end the
str lke. as he realized that they would
lie useless.

In 1877. Turner'S theatre which IS the

laundry. was the fashionable public han
Of Wichita. and IN that year an opera
company played in the theatre for the
entertainment Of the cowboys and the
farmers. jim Vigus. who lived near the
city. decided 70 attend the opera.
At one scene the hero and heroine did
not articulate well IN their singing and
it sounded as though the hero were say
ing TO the heroine: who stole that cart?
Who stole that cart2"
The heroine dropped on her knees.
Jim Vigus was becoming excited. HIS
eyes protruded out Of his head and rolled
down the sides Of his cheeks.
You stole ttat cart You stole that

above the head of the trembling heroine
That was more than gallant jim 6igus
