COAL MEN S0RGAN
PREDICTS STRIKE
NEITHER WoRkMEN OR THE
OPERATORS ARE SEEKING
ANY DIFFICULTIES

Scranton, July s-The Black Dia-
mond, Of Chicago, a paper said to rel
fleet the views of the anthracite coal
operators, says this week:
"A struggle between the miners and
the operators is inevitable, as neither
side is satisfied. The sooner 1t occurs
and is over with the better.
Relative to this article President
John Mitchell, of the Miners Union,
said today:
III the miners and operators are
unable to reach an agreement at the
expiration OF the present agreement,
It win be because of some unwise
stand. | know that the miners do not
want a strike and don't think that the
operators do 1t is a fact that the op.
orators are storing much coal It is
also true that they always do more
at this time or year, but believe they
are storing now in greater quantities
than usually. Whether they are do
ing this for an aggressive action or to
be on the defensive, cannot say"
rs there really ais much dissatis
faction over the Cancellation Board as
has been represented2' was asked.
No, | don't thing 80, Mr.. Mitchell
answered. Il feel that the Concilia-
ton Board has done some noble work
II has certainly prevented numerous
strikes. 1t certainly has NOT disturbed
the discipline at the mines. 1t is ma
tural for men who hold one view to
feel keenly the defeat of losoing a
stand before the Cancellation Board
but those who accept arbitration
should be able TO see the situation in
the proper light"

DEMOCRAT BURNED OUT
One Man Burned to Death and Prop erty Loss is Estimated at
 About $1so,oOo.

Little Rock, July 24 The new plant of the Arkansas Democrat Company, conceded to be one of the best equipped in the South, was completely destroyed by fire last night. The loss is about S180,- 000; insurance in the neighborhood of S100, GOO.
 Dan Taylor, a stereotyper, who slept in the stereotyping room on the third floor, lost his life in the fire. His body was recovered to- day. The fire is supposed to have started in the basement and is be- lieved to be of incendiary origin. The vault, heavy brick structure passing through the building from the basement to the roof, with doors on each floor was completely gutted, and all the books and valu- able papers of the company, in cluding book accounts amounting to about S15,000 was a complete loss.
 Among the other great losses sustained is a mass of State print ing, some of which was about ready for delivery. This was stored in the bindery on the sec ond floor, and consisted of two volumes of Arkansas Supreme Court reports and the acts of the last legislature, all of which must now be printed from the begin hing.
 The new building was a three story and basement brick struc- ture, built especially for a com plete printing establishment with the bindery in connection. It was occupied last fall, and in all par ticulars was as finely equipped and arranged as any printing plant in the South.
 The loss is estimated by w. s. Mitchell, president of the com pany, at about $1S0,000, all told, and the insurance about SI00,000.
