BAER MAKES
HIS ARGUMENT
A Large Crowd Was in the
Court Room to Hear What
He Had to Say
MINE WORKERS ARRA|GNED
The President Of the Philadelphia
and Reading Railroad Said That
the United Mine Workers
Were a Monster Monopoly
Interested in a Rival
Business.

Philadelphia, Feb. 12.-With the ex-
pectation of hearing George F. Baer,
president of the Reading Coal Com
pany, ia.ake. .1ie closing argument
against the demand of the miners, the
largest crowd that has yet jammed in
to the United States circuit court
room, was present when the coal strike
commission opened it's session today
Many prominent men and women We're
among the throng which fought it's
way into the room. Former Congress-
man Wolverton, principal counsel for
the Philadelphia and Reading Coal
and Iron Company, who was making
his argument when the commission ad-
journed yesterday, concluded this
morning. Baer's argument was q long
and exhaustive statement of the opera
tors side of the case during which he
defended the right to organize for law
full business. He alleged that the mine
workers were responsible for lawless-
ness in the coal region, and said that a
uniform scale covering the whole an
thracite field was impracticable. He
said the chief objection to Mitchell's
organization was that it is foreign
organization interested in rival busi-
ness (bituminous mining). If Mitchell
the anthracite employees
there was no objection in
dealing with him. He claimed and
limited that the mine workers was
monopoly, and also that the.
civic federation had not dealt honestly
and justly by the operators. He gave
a comprehensive account of the diff
culties and the expense in the produc-
ton of anthracite.

THE OUTLOOK
FOR STATEHOOD
IS DISC0URAGING
Unless the Proposed Compromise Accepted New Mexico Arizona
May Have to Wait for a Good Many

among Democratic senators and unless
the four territories is agreed upon
there is great fear that New Mexico
and Arizona will have to wait many
years before their claims to statehood
will be recognized. The name of New
Mexico for the new state to be compos-
ed of New Mexico and Arizona is not
popular The talk is that the name of
Lincoln may be proposed and adopted.
The sentiment seems to be against New
Mexico, as 1t is thought best to give
