entire legal contingent of the Depart

prosecute the Standard Oil Company
for accepting rebates from the trunk

brought as the result of the investiga-

the Commissioner of Corporations, who
together with his assistants, secured
evidence which not only shows that the
trust has demanded and received re-
bates on its shipments, but which is
strong enough to enable the govern

The outcome of a dispute, which
threatened to develop into a long, bit
ter struggle and paralyze a great indus
try was looked upon with considerable
satisfaction by the coal road presidents,
as the agreement entered into is the
first proposition made early in March,
in reply to the mine workers Original
demands.
The miners had little to say regard
ing the agreement, except that it was
the best they could get. They pointed
out, however, that the agreement en-
tered into is the first agreement that
has ever been signed between the Oper-
ators and miners, and they look upor
it as step forward in their efforts tC
have regular agreements with theii
employers.

ceiving rebates, it is declared that the
government has also enough evidence
to enable it to prove that this great
trust has conspired to ruin the business
of its competitors. There will not be
a prosecution on the charge of con-
spiracy, but the action will be brought
against the trust for receiving rebates
in violation of the Elkins anti-rebate
law.
This law provides that the penalty
for each violation is a fine of $1,000,
and as the government has evidence of
many violations the fine, if conviction
is secured, will be heavy one, but out
of all proportion to the amount Of trib-
ute that has been extracted from the
people by the trust. 1t has not yet
been decided where the prosecution
will be brought. The law provides
that the action must be begun in the
United States Circuit Court for the
district in which it is charged the vio-
lation took place.
The Department of Justice will there
fore be able to act in almost any State
in the Union, but it is likely that the
prosecution will be brought in New
York State, Pennsylvania or Indiana,
where the principal operations of the
trust are carried on.
Attorney-General Moody declines to
discuss the plans, but it will be some
weeks before the case against the
trust can be prepared, and it is more
than likely that it will not be presented
in any court until next fall, as the
Circuit Courts will take a recess in a
short time until the fall terms begin.

RHODE ISLAND

NAVY TUGS TO The RESCUE

Norfolk, Va, May 6.-The United
States battleship Rhode Island is ashore
at York Spit, in the bay, at the mouth
of York River.
The big sea fighter, which was bound
| from Boston to Yorktown for target
practice, is reported hard aground.
Tugs from the Navy Yard have been
sent to the scene.
The news of the stranding of the
ship was received by wireless from the
Rhode Island in message to the sta
tion at the Navy Yard, asking that as
sistance be sent at once.
The naval tugs Uncas, Hercules and
Mohawk who hurried to the scene. All
of the tugs are powerful, and the Un-
cas-, which is attached to the North At
lantic squadron, is one Of the most
powerful wrecking tugs in the navy.
If the naval tugs fail to float the bat
tleship other wrecking tugs will be
sent.
At the time the Rhode Island went
ashore a stiff breeze was blowing and
there was some sea on. Late last night
the wind freshened and veered to the
northwest, the wind increased, and the
sea was running high. 1t is not be-
lieved, however, that the vessel is in
any great danger.
The Rhode Island is new addition
to the navy. She had been taking a
spin over the Cape Ann course, off the
Massachusetts coast, and was, it is
said, ordered to proceed to Yorktown.
She entered the Capes yesterday
morning, and was proceeding up the
bay, when in some manner unknown
here she ran hard aground at York Spit,
the scene of other groundings.
Off York Spit there are numerous
shoals which extend far out near the
main channel. The shoals are marked
with buoys. The weather may have
been thick at the time, and this may
account for the stranding of the bat
tleship.
Being weighted down with heavy
armament, ammunition and stores, and
carrying large crew, the vessel is be-
lieved to be stuck deep in the mud.
Unless a high tide floats the vessel
with the assistance of the tugs she will
necessarily have to be lightened.
In the event that the battleship is
successfully floated she will be brought
to the Navy Yard to be placed in dry
dock to determine the extent of the
damages. AS is usual in such cases a
naval board of inquiry will be called to
meet to fix the responsibility of the
grounding of the ship.
The Rhode Island went into commits
sion on April II of this year at the Bos-
ton Navy Yard.

New York, May 7.-After carrying
on negotiations for nearly three months
the subcommittee representing the
anthracite mine workers and operators
of Eastern Pennsylvania today agreed
to continue the award of the strike
commission for another thsee years
and the men will return to work as
soon as practicable, probably Monday.
All miners who have not committed
violence against persons or property,
will be re-employed, and no one will
be Disseminated against because of any
activity he may have taken in the
strike movement. The agreement is
subject to the ratification of the tri-
district convention Of mine workers at
Scranton tomorrow, but there is not
the slightest doubt that the delegates
will approve the action of their repre-
sentatives.

MINERS WILL
RETURN TO WORK
Mine Workers and Operators Of East
ern Pennsylvania Agree.
ROAD PRESIDENTS SEEM SATISFIED
Miners Have Little to Say, Except That il
Was the Best They Could Get, But Look
Upon it as Step Forward.

Scranton, Pa, May 5.-There Will
be no strike of the miners of the anthra-
cite coal fields providing the operators
will agree to give every man his old
place and reinstate those who have
been dismissed because they obeyed
the suspension order of John Mitchell.
On the advice of President Mitchell,
representing the sub-scale committee,
the miners convention today unaml-
mously voted to adopt the first PROPOSE
tion of the operators, continuation OF
the award of the anthracite coal strike
commission, with the modification that
the terms for which it is to continue
shall be mutually agreed upon. The
operators suggestion that it should be
at least three years.
The action of the committee for the
request for a conference on Monday
was telegraphed by President Mitchell
to Chairman Geo. F. Baer, OF the
operators committee and an answer
was received agreeing to conference
at 2 O'Clock at their offices in New
York City.
The only matters to be discussed at
the conference are the time the award
shall be and the provision that there
shall be no discrimination against the
men who obeyed the mine workers sus-
pension order. 1t is practically certain
that the operators will not accede to
any suggestion for two year agree
ment, as that would throw the next
conference into the presidential year
and as the miners will not want long
term agreement the chances are that
three year agreement will be eventu-
ally entered upon. An intimation has
reached here from President Baer that
the operators will not discriminate
against the miners now on suspension,
and the local representatives Of the
coal companies say the same thing. II
looks, therefore, as though strike
had been averted and the miners will
return to work probably on Monday,
May IA.
The news that the convention hac
decreed against the strike was received
with great Joy throughout this region.
Since the delegates began to arrive
in Scranton on Wednesday it was felt
that the result of the convention woulc
be the Transforming of the suspension
into strike, when it did come would
be long one, attended by much disor-
der.
New York, May AFTER carrying
on negotiations for nearly three months
the subcommittee representing the
anthracite mine workers and operators
of Eastern Pennsylvania today agreed
to continue the award of the strike
commission for another thsee years
