The commissioners report more than
once their incapacity to make an award
on the demand of the miners for recog-

union is not a party to the submission.
Attention is called to the fact that Mr..
Mitchell appeared before the commission
as "the representative of the anthracite
coal mine workers." and not In his Off

the fact that the agreement to arbitrate

OF an act of congress we're filed at the
White House yesterday by Senator Nelson
on behalf OF SENATOR, Clapp.; e IL.
When Mayor Scott was In Washington
it was reported that he made strong
statement ;lto1 seerstary; Hitohcnck and
the Indian commissioner, alleging that
certain provisions Of the act providing for
the cession OF a portion of the Red Lake
lands were unfair to the Indians He pro-
tested against giving the state Of Mime
sofa the school lands In the eleven town
ships to be ceded under the act. twenty
two sections in all, valued at approx
mately $56,0O0. He stated that in his
opinion there was no justification what
ever. for giving the state these lands when
the supreme court had decided. that it was
not entitled to any lands in, the Indian
reservations under the school grant.
Clapp alleged that the province Of an In
dian agent military or civilian, is to ad-
minister the laws Of congress as he finds
them and not to criticise them nor i'm
pede their action in any way. -
He protests against Major Scott being
allowed to advise the Indians about the
acceptance or rejection of the act of con-
called to the White House to-day to con-
fer with the president about the matter
and Major Scott will be asked for an ex-
planation. > ,,... Xxx
Before jor Scott left Washington he
stated that all he wanted to have done by
the agent Of the department who pre-
sented the revised agreement to the In
dams was to have him explain every
detail to them with statement of how
the changes would affect them. He
stated also that he had no intention OF
advising the Indians to reject the treaty
because of the grant to the state, but as
he considers it to be his duty to protect
the Indians as far as he can in: his ca
pacity as agent. He insists that they
shall know all their rights. in relation tc
the proposed cession. +: ~-~ =. -.

The commission, however, takes a. DE-
cided position against, compulsory arbi-
tration. On this point they add a quite
lengthy commentary, which closes In the
following language:
..,rhe chief berefit to be derived from
the suggestion herein made lies in placing
the real facts and the responsibility Tor
such condition authoritatiyely before the
people, that the public opinion may cfys-S
talize and make its power felt .Could

been averted-certainly the suffering and
deprivation might have been greatly NIT
iEated.'
A Review Of the Strike.
These awards and recommendations con-
stitute the closing part Of the report. The
earlier pages, and by long odds the larger
portion of the report, are devoted to
review of the controversy which led to
the presidents action in appointing the
commission, to the appointment itself and
to the proceedings Of the commission dur
ing It's existence.
They review In a general way the pro
dution of anthracite coal. refer to the
small area of country in which it is pro-
duced and dwell at some length on the

The Strike Losses. >...a.,'.a
These losses they estimate as follows:
As to mine owners, S46,loo, 600; 10 tne
mine employees in~waees. $25. .o00. 900; to the
TRANSPORTATION companies, $2S,Oo0,OO0.
The commission says that in making the
: Investigation they have done, whatever II
was practicable to do to acquaint them
selves with the conditions which brought
about the strike and they make the fol-
lowing summary Of their work.
They have gone through mines and IN
spected the various conditions which the
production of anthracite coal involves;
they have visited the breakers, the engine
houses, and pumping stations; they have
examined the mahcinery by which the
mines are protected from water and fou
air; they have talked with the miners at
their work and in their homes, and they
have given attention to the economic. DO
nestle, scholastic and religious phases OF
their lives: they have listened to and di-
rected; the examination, and cross ex-
animation Of 35S witnessess they have CIV
en- free scope to. the counsel who repre-
sented the operators, the nop-union mer
and the miners and they have devoted ar
entire week to hearing their arguments.
The commissioners also say that while
there we're differences Of opinion among
themselves, there never has been a time
during the five months Of the existence Of
the commission when there was an unpleas'
