ANOTHER EFFORT
TO End STRIKE
Governor Stone COnffrS With
Railroad Employees
Would Assemble Legislature Ii lie
Thought II Would Pass Law
TO Settle Strike

Harrisburg, Pa, Sept. 5.-Governor
Stone was waited upon by a commit
tee from the State Legislative Board
of Railroad Employees of Pennsylvania
yesterday afternoon and requested to
take immediate steps to bring about
a settlement of the strike in the an
thracite coal regions, and, il neces-
sary, call an extra session of the legis-
lature for the enactment of a compul-
sorry arbitration bill that would end
the strike.
The committee presented to the
governor a signed statement setting
forth that the strike is causing much
distress among the anthracite miners
and their families, untold hardship to
millions of people, and proving disas-
trous to the business interests Of the
state. Milton Robinson, of the com
mittee, said that railroad employees
depend upon the coal traffic for four
ffths of their living, and that they
were not making as good wages as
they we're before the strike. He said
that the board was preparing a bill
which its members believed would end
the strike and prevent strikes in the
future if it should become a law.
Governor Stone replied that If, by
calling a special session of the legis-
lature, a law could be passed that
would be constitutional and would set.
tie this strike and prevent others, he
would not hesitate to call a special sss-
sion, but he must be satisfied that the
convening of the legislature would re
suit in the passage of a law that was
constitutional and would settle the
strike before he would call a special
session.
Governor Stone also said that he re
garded the strike of sufficient public
interest TO justify an extra session oi
the legislature at this stage and in the
light of its present status if that ses
sion of the legislature would solve tho
difficulty, but that he would not cal
a special session in the interest o
speculation or for political effect if NJ
satisfactory law could be passed ol
good come out of It.
The committee promised to submit
copy of its proposed bill to the gov
ernor as soon as It was drafted.
The governor said he would be yer!
glad to examine it carefully. and would
then give his answer as to the calling
of an extra session.
When the conference was over th'
members of the committee said tha
they were very well satisfied will
their reception at the hands of th'
governor, and that they thought hi
position was entirely right and proper
They also said that they believed tha
II the bill being drafted by the boar
should fill the requirements Of tn
case and shall not be open to an,
valid objection, the governor wouli
call an extra session for its passage.

WILL CONFER WITH soERs
Rumored They Will Make Further
Peace Demands.

London. Sept. 5.-The conference
which was to have taken place yester-
day at the colonial Office between Co
lonial Secretary Joseph Chamberlain
and the Boer Generals Botha, De Wet
and Delarey. has been postponed until
today. 1t will be strictly private
While It is firmly believed that Co
lonial Secretary Chamberlain has de-
clined any conference with the Boer
generals on the basis of a re-discus-
sion of the terms Of peace, the fact
that Lord Kitchener has been espe-
cially summoned to attend is regard
ed as an assurance that the confer
ence will not be entirely nugatory.
Many unauthorized versions of the
further demands Of the Boer generals
are current. The points most likely
to be discussed are the questions Of
repatriation and the admission Of the
Beers to representation in legislative
and executive councils. It is prob
able also that the Beers will seek an
increase in the amount of the grant
for rebuilding farms and some conces-
sions in the questions of education and
language.
