Appeal to the President.

President Roosevelt received a tele'
gram from w. D. Haywood, secretary
of the Western Federation OF Miners.
urging him to institute an investiga.
ton of the present serious condition
of affairs in the Cripple Creek mining
district of Colorado.
Beyond the mere statement that
the telegram had been received and
that no answer yet had been sent to it,
no official information is obtanable at
the White House What action, il
any at all, the President may take is
not even intimated.
At least twice heretofore in the last
six months the President has been
requested to interfere in the Colorado
troubles, but declined, after mature
consideration. because he had no legal
power to take action in the matter.
1t is regarded by those in close touch
with him to be unlikely that the Presi-
dent will interfere in any way with
the action Of the constituted au
thorities of the State of Colorado.
