New York, April 1O.-A counter

Bitter Letter From Independents.
At the close of the meeting a copy
of a letter from Independent oper-
ators, who held a meeting at Wilkes
barre Monday, TO the operators COM
mittee was made public. This letter
exposed the conviction Of the inde-
pendent operators that any agreement
to arbitrate with the United Mine
Workers would be an unjustiiable sur
render to anarchy and mob violence.
The letter contained the following:
I'VE contend that it would be better
that our mines shall lie idle for years
than that we shall accede to the high
waymanlike demands of an organiza-
tion that lacks either the wish or the
ability to restrain it's members from
acts of violence that would disgrace
the much despised Russia"
The independents wrote that if the
operators committee could decide, in
Difference to public opinion, upon some
offer of arbitration that arbitration
should be by the same body that met
in 1902 and 1903 and that there should
be no submission of questions already
adjudicated, like the closed shop, col
lection of dues or the suggestion Of
any term less than five years during
which the award shall be binding. The
Independents also suggested that any
increase in the cost of production
should be added at once to the market
price of coal.

The troubles Of Rosina Prihoda Bosena,
the twenty-two-year-old Bohemian girl
who told Magistrate Breen in the Essex
Market court on Wednesday that she had
been held a prisoner since she landed in
this country, on June 10, cleared up in q
bunch yesterday. She left her alleged
imprisonment, received $50 which she had
deposited with her employer and s24 due
her for two months work, and, finally, she
was married to the ianc6 With whom she
had come to America.
The wedding ook place at 1 o'clock in
the Bohemian church Of Our Lady Of Per-
petual. Help and st. Alphonsus on Sixty
first street, between First and Second ave-
nues. The little green and blue and gold
nave looked Lonesome as the small wedding
party entered. Two small candles fickered
on the altar. There was no wedding marchs
no Grove Of congratulate ting friends. Pro-
baton Officer Anna Doyle n Michael
Landlich, Slavic interpreter in the Court
Of Special Sessions, stood behind the couple
as they knelt to exchange their vows. Be-
sides the priest and his acolyte the only
other living souls in the church were two
reporters and a colored scrubwoman, who
didn't stop her work for the ceremony.
After 10 was all over the small party took
an elevated train downtown again and a
call was made on the girls late employer,
Arthur Gottlieb, a jeweller, at 500 Grand
street. Miss Doyle said they had come
for the girls money, which Miss Yetta
Gottlieb had refused to surrender on the
preceding day. It was handed over and
the couple left for the bridegroom's home
at 9OA EaEt Seventy-frst street.
As in all weddings, the bridegroom was
