WANT GRAY COMMISSION tx
LOOK INTO CONDITIONS IN
HARD COAL FIELD.
WHITES CABINlT is DOOMED
RuMORS OF COMPLETE SMASH,
UP ARE EVERYWHERE
CURRENT.

New York, April 12.--The anthracite
operators at their conference with the
mine workers here yesterday declined
The proposition to have the Cancellation
board arbitrate all grievances submit
ted by the wage workers. They made
counter proposal that the commits
sion appointed by President Roosevelt
in 1902 be requested to decide whether
any changes in conditions in the hard
quire that the award of the commits
sion should be modified. The mine
owners limit the inquiry to two griev-
ances-wages and method for the
adjustment of complaints.
Are Still Far Apart.
Although both parties are now COM
mitted to arbitration, they are still
far apart. But confidence is expressed
on all sides that peaceful settlement
will be brought about. There is every
indication that the counter arbitration
will not be accepted by the miners as
presented, although they view with ia
vor the operators selection of the an
thracite strike commission. The old
tribunal will be accepted by President
Mitchell if he can induce the coal COM
panies to widen the scope of the in
quiry.
Disappointment to Miners.
The endeavor of the operators TO
eliminate all except two of the min
ers' grievances was a keen disappOint-
ment TO the men, and if their attitude
can be taken as an indication of their
action, they will fight hard to have
some of their other demands taken up,
such as an eight-hour day, the weigh
ing of coal and the check-off. If the
scale committee cannot come to an
agreement with the operators it is not
unlikely that a convention of the min
ers will be called to further instruct
the committee.

Resume of the Weeks
Proceedings.
T thursday.

Washington, April Elm the senate
Yesterday there was a re-echo of the
White House conference over railroad
rate legislation, and, while the discus
sion ended in good nature, for time
the feeling was somewhat intense.
The incident occurred at the close of
a speech by Mr.. Stone which was de
voted largely to a discussion of that
conference.
Mr.. Dolliver charged that other sen
ators had been in consultation with
the presidents of railway companies.
The intimation was resented by both
Mr.. Bailey and Mr. Foraker and they
demanded the names of senators re
ferred to. These Mr.. Dolliver declined
to give.
The postoffice appropriation bill,
following an immemorial custom.
was made the vehicle for number Of
speeches yesterday having no bearing
on the subject but of general interest
to the country. The rights of labor
were discussed by Mr.. Towne IN. "

Washington, April I'm making an
effort yesterday to get the senate to
agree upon a date for taking a vote on
the railway rate bill, Mr.. Tillman
made the important statement that
one week more probably will exhaust
the general debate. He failed how
ever, to secure the consent of Mr.
Aldrich, who said that he would not
agree to vote on the bill until it is
more nearly perfected During the
day there were three speeches on the
measure. The first was made by Mr.
Elkins, who, while saying that the sit
uatiOn demands legislation, indicated
many defects in the bill
Tariff, railway mail subsidy, de-
natured alcohol and enlarged postal
facilities for Western cities were the
features in the debate in the house
yesterday.

CAR RUNS OFF TREsTLE.
P!unqes Off the End at Full Speed and
Kills Two Men.

Chisholm, MINI, April 10. - Two
men were killed at the Monroe mine
last night, when a motor engine and
a, dump car ran off a sixty-fOot trestle
and the victims were thrown to the
ground below. George Dinko and
Stephen Lucas, the dead men, were
operating the motor and car from the
mine toward the end Of the trestle. As
the engine approached the end of the
trestle Lucas pulled the lever, but in
stead of turning off the power, as he
thought, he turned it on at full speed
and the engine, dragging the car on
which Dinko was riding, plunged over
the end of the trestle.

TESTIFIED FALSELY.
Witness Says Jones Admitted Giving
False Testimony Against Patrick.


New York April 12.-Corporal Alex
ander B. Stanberry of the Thirteenth
United States infantry testified yester-
day that Charles F. Jones, the valet of
William Marsh Rice, had admitted TO
him that he testified falsely in the trial
of Albert 7. Patrick, expecting that
the jury would d1sClodit his testimony
and allow Patrick to go free. Corporal
Stanberry declared also that Jones
had said that if he were sure that he
would receive only light sentence
for perjury he would come North and
tell the whole truth" The testimony
was given at hearing on the question
whether Patrick shall have new trial
on the charge of the murder of Rice.
Stanberry was brought from the Phil,

st. Petersburg April 10. = The
electoral college in twentyeight out OF
the fifty-one provinces in European
Russia yesterday elected 178 members
to the national parliament-about one
third of the entire membership-and
returns received up to midnight fndi-
cate that the widest hopes of the Lib
erals have been realized, the Consti
tutional Democrats and other pro
gressivists seemingly everywhere hav-
ing gained tremendous victory over
the Octoberists and other conservative
parties. AS far as is ascertainable
not single reactiOnary candidate
pulled through and nowhere did even
the Octoberists secure a triumph. The
majorities obtained by the radicals
clinch the character of the victory.
From the Volga to the border of Po-
land, and from the ice-bound coast of
Archangel to the Black sea, the story
is substantially the same.
Yesterdays results prove beyond
question that the calculations of the
government have been rudely upset
and that the opposition elements will
control the national parliament by a
decisive majority,

that could be heard for squares, the
five-story building at 622 Liberty ave
