ANrHRAcIyE COAL SITUATION
Little Hope of Peace Among Men In.
 terestcJ,

terestcJ,
 Philadelphia, April 13.-There was but little hope for industrial peace in the anthracite region to-day among the men most interested in the coal stua- ton. One and all seemed convinced that nothing short of an unexpected in- tervention of some sort can now pre- vent coal strike, or rather the declar- ation on the part of the coming mine workers convention that strike exists
 It is regarded as settled, according to the general belief in the region that the mine operators have gone as far as they will go. Following was the word which came over the telephone to Scranton from New York to-day from an important official in one of the larg- est coal companies to the local office there:
 '"There will be no more concessions There will be not one Jot conceded by the operators. That is definite; that is settled. There will be no more counter propositions, just simple refusal to consider the miners latest proposition"

Lawyers of Both Sides Take More Hopeful vIew--Deposed Apostles Lawyers Not to File Bin in Equity --Dowie Promises to Retire Under Certain Conditions-Wants Five Per Cent. of $2O,oOO,OOO.

Certain COnuItiOns-WantB Five Fer
 Cent. of s2OOOO,OOO.
 Chicago, April 13.-Peaeefu settle- ment of the strife between John Alex ander Dowie and those of his followers who recently rebelled under the leader ship of Wilbur Flenn Voliva is in sight, according to statements made tonight by the legal advisors of both Dowie and Yoliva. After an all day conference, Emil c. Wetten, representing Dowie, tonight said:
 We are nearer a peaceful solution of this question tonight than we have been at any stage of the proceedings We have changed our minds relative to the filing of bill of equity, declaring the transfer of the ownership of the property of Zion City by Vollva to Deacon Alexander Granger to be void, and will await further developments. To-day, as a matter of formallty, we filed a paper in the circuit court de- claring that the power of attorney to General Overseer Voliva by John Alex ander Dowie was absolutely void, in asmuch as Voliva had not acted in ac- cordance with the instructions given him in reference to the execution of the powers delegated to him by Dowie.
 'Dowie, before the transfer, sent Vo- liva a telegram revoking the power ot attorney
 According to the contestants, the de- cision of the court on the validity of the telegraphic revocation of the power of attorney will decide in whom rests the control of the City of Zion. On this question Attorney Wetten said:
 "The telegraphic revocation of the power of attorney is absolutely legal, and will stand in any court of law"
 At the termination of to-days com ference, which was participated in by V. V. Barnes, legal adviser ot Zion City, Jacob Newman, counsel for Vo- liva, and Attorney Wetten, represent ing Dowie, MT. Newman said:
 "Dowie and his advisers admitted to- day that we had in our possession doc umentary evidence to the effect that Dowie and his advisers admit that ninety-five per cent. of the Zion prop critics belong to the Christian Catholic church, and he has acquiesced in the proposition that if he is given five per cent of this property, after he has been installed in temporary control both ee- clesiastical and financial, he will retire
 "In other words, DoWie desires to De vindicated, reinstalled with the full powers attending the first apostleship of the Christian Catholic church, whereupon he will issue an edict, de- claring that ninety-five percent Of the property of Zion City belongs to the church and that five percent belongs to Dowie. This would give to Dowie S1 ,OOO 900 and to the church SlS,OOO, 900,

RO8SEVELT'S CAREER
 SICNALIzED BY WEAKNESS
OUGHT NOT TO INSPIRE DEMO- CRATIC ADULATION SAYS
 STONE.

though Obtrusive, Audacious and
 Spectacular the President Has shown
 VacciIatiOn Instead of Steadiness and
 VainglOry Instead of Solid Worth
 Folk Says an Unprecedented POliti-
 cal Review is Going On.
 Kansas City, April 1S.-Fiye hundred Missouri democrats, including 150 Mis- sourl editors, attended banquet, to- night given by the Missouri State Dem- ocratic Press association to conamem- crate the birthday anniversary of Thomas Jefferson. The principal apeak- CTS were Governor Joseph w. Folk. United States Senator William J. Stone, Congressman Charles A. ToWne of New York, and Charles w. Knapp of the St. Louis Republic. All the speakers made a plea for party harmony in this state and predicted that at the next election Missouri would again be found in the democratic column.
 Senator Stone averred that President Roosevelt's administration ought not to inspire democratic adulation. He add ed: Although obtrusive, audacious and spectacular, Roosevelts career, as view it, has been signalized by weak ness, not strength; by vaccillation not steadfastness; by vainglory, not sold worth. For whatever he may do that is right give credit l am neither for him nor against him; I simply take him for what he is. will support him when he is right, but I shall not court him with blandishments. nor swell his van- ity by blowing upon him the incense or ffattery. I am democrat and under the banner of that grand old party l am content to stay.
 Governor Folk said in part: Jefferson announced the cardinal doctrine of true democracy when he declared for equal rights to all; special privileges to none. This maxim expresses every es- sential element of true democracy It comes to us to-day as a message from the past for it applies to the conditions to-day with even greater force than when it was first announced by the father of democracy. That was one of the first declarations against what is known in modern times as graft. Graft in it's last analysts is a special privi- lege either exercised contrary to law or one the law itself may give.
 An unprecedented political revival Is going on in the United States today on this subject The next few years will be distinguished as the time in which the reign of the special privilege is brought to an end and the doctrine of equal rights fixed in national politics and in the conscience of mankind. There are some who are appalled, by the exposures of official venality and private depravity and are disposed to exclaim in a spirit of dismay, 70 tenn pora. o mores." To my mind the most hopeful sign of the continuance of gov- ernment by the people is these very ex- | posures"
