MARKLE SAYS NO STRIKE
Coal Operator Says Miners Are Con-
tented With Labor Conditions.


Philadelphia, Seut. 14.-GeOrge B.
Markle. the well-knOwn coal operator,
whose collieries are in the vicinity OF
Hazleton. expressed the opinion at the
Bellevue Stratford that there is little
danger of a general strike at the mines
next spring. He said:
From present indications there is
little probability Of another serious
strike of the anthracite coal miners
next spring There may be disturb
ances among the labOrers around the
mines. which will affect the whole dis
trict but the miners themselves / do
not believe to have sufficient griev-
ances to warrant them in calling a
general strike.
miners themselves are in better
circumstances than ever before" he
said. ut is not from them that most
OF the former troubles have arisen. 1t
was principally from the men en-
ployed around the mines. Many Of
these were under the supervision Of
the experienced coal miners. In some
mines a system is used in which the
laborers worked for the miners and
these were operating under contract
to the owners, of course under the di-
rections of the mine superintendent"

THE PRESIDENT INDIGNANT
Denies Alleged Interview and Brands
CORRESPONDENT As Dishonorable.

Oyster Bay. L. l., Sept 14.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt has denounced as a
fabrication and as wholly without
foundation in truth the report Of an
interview with him regarding the
terms of peace between Russia and
Japan published in the Petit Parisien
of Paris and cabled TO America and
published here.
As soon as the purpOrted interview
was called to his attention, the presi-
dent directed Secretary Loeb to send
to the correspondent Of the Petit
Parisien, who was received at Saga
more Hill, the following telegram:
Oyster Bay, N. Y. Sept Is, 1905.
CASTOR Richard, Hotel Lafayette, New
York, n. Y.
THE president directs me to say to
you that the alleged interview with
him is not only an absolute fabrica-
ton, wholly without basis Of truth, but
that your conduct In obtaining permits
sion to see him under false pretenses
is thoroughly dishOnOrable. When you
came to see the president you inform
ed him that you were the grandson
of Marshal Augereau; that you had
been at the battle of Mukden with the
Russian army and with the Japanese
army afterwards; that you understood
thoroughly that you could have no in
terview of any kind, and that you
simply wished to pay respect to him.
Under these circumstances the presi-
dent received you and listened to your
account Of your experiences with the
Japanese and Russians, and spoke to
you also of the deeds Of Marshal
Augereau and Of Napoleon's other
generals.
The president had no conversation
with you about the terms Of peace
and your account Of your alleged in
terview with him Is a fabrication
from beginning 10 end without any
foundation in fact; and both your I'M
truthfulness and your obtaining per-
mission to see him under false pre-
lenses the president considers highly
dishonorable.

Terril, Aug. S.-The school board
of Lloyd township met for the purpose
of letting contracts on the seven routes
for the transportation of pupils to and
from the Central high school. The
routes were let by open bids and there
seemed to be plenty of candidates for
the jobs. The directors were well
pleased with the method Of open bids
as they get the pupils all transported
for the coming school year at greatly
reduced rates compared with other
years, thereby saving the district
something like $3.50 on that one item.
The Central high school is growing in
favor every year, and the expense Of
maintaining it are not much in excess
of the old method and the advantages
of this system are many, compared
with the old rural school house on the
lonely corner and attended possibly by
five or six small children. while the
older ones are away attending school
in some neighboring town, making
double taxation for their parents, and
not getting as good service as we are
at present.
