co BACK TO WORK
Miners and Operators In Anthracite
Coal Field Have Reached an
Agreement at Last.
CONTINUE FOR THREE YEARS
Have Consented to Accept Strike Commits.
siOn's Award Which Was Owners
First PrOpOsltiOn--Los in Pro-
duCtiOn 100000 Tons.

New York, May S.-After carrying
on negotiations for nearly tire
months the subcommittee represent
ing the anthracite mine worker
and operators Of Eastern Pennsylvania
Monday agreed to continue the aware
Of the strike commission for another
three years or until March 81, 1909
and the men will return to work al
soon as practicable, probably Mon.
day. All miners who have not com.
mitted violence against persons OIL
property will be reemployed and nc
one will be Disseminated against
because Of any action they may have
taken in the strike movement. The
agreement is subject to the ratification
Of the tri-dlstrict convention Of mine
workers at Scranton Tuesday, but
there Is not the slightest doubt that
the delegates will approve the action
Of their representatives.
This outcome Of the dispute which
threatened to develop into long, Bit
ter struggle and paralyze a great In
dustry was looked upon with consld-
cradle satisfaction by the coal road
presidents. as the agreement entered
into is their first proposition made
early In March In reply to the mine
workers original demands.
The miners had little to say regard.

tween operators and the miners AND
they look upon It as a step forward in
their efforts to have regular agree
ments with their employers
While the compact entered into Mon
day was predicted last week. the
agreement was not reached without a
ilnal struggle on the part Of the min
ers to get something more, President
Mitchell, in stating to the operators
the action of the Scranton convention,
asked that the proposed agreement be
made for two years. In arguing for
the two-year term he said the cost Of
living might increase considerably In
three years and that other changes in
the mining industry might come that
would make the present wage scale
unfair to the men. The operators in
their reply said they felt that any
contingency that might arise was COW
cred BY the award Of the strike COM
mission and they concluded by asking
that the award be continued for three
years This was then agreed to.
In taking up the question Of dis
elimination against some Of the men,
Il was the intention Of the mine own
srs to take back only such men as they
chose to re-employ, but President Nit
ehell contested this point so strongly
that the operators withdrew e.

San Francisco, May 8.--After

the reconstruction Of the city. Thu
one great problem with which the
officials, military and civil, feel they
now have to deal Is that of collect.
Ing the refugees and getting them
into the smallest possible number Of
large camps. Incidentally the ques-
ton of sanitation is involved, for with
the people scattered everywhere, and
come of them Of far from clean
habits, 1t is practically impossible to
prevent them from violating the re-
gulations, whereas If they can be CEN
tralized all can be carefully watched
ind the slovenly ones can be forced
10 properly protect their habitations
cad the ground Immediately surround
ing the sites of their shelters. 1t is
proposed TO organize modal camp
at Hamilton square. Monday morning
every available able-bodied man in
this camp was routed cut at an early
hour and set to work cleaning up the
place. Not so much as a scrap If pa
per Is to be allowed to lay about.
Engineer Dunn declares that the
camp will be kept in perfect sanitary
condition and If the male campers do
not wish to turn out every morning
as cleaning squad they had better
arrive at a system by which no dirt
or rubbish will be left about.
At Mondays meeting of the finance
committee DR.. Devine, representing
the National Red Cross and Major
Febiger, who Is In charge of the con-
solidated relief stations, were author
lied to work out plan by which res
taurants under their auspices would be

which the city has been divided by |
the army authorities. Hot meals at
fifteen cents each are to be served at
these eating places, and the plan is
eventually 10 dispense with the matter

meals will be for worthy persons and

FUNDAMENTAL Law STANDS.
With a Hostile Parliament About "a
Assemble Russian PlutOcracy
Curtails Its Power.

st. Petersburg, May 8.-Another Of
the Kaleidoscope changes in the po-
litical situation to which Russia Ia
becoming accustomed occurred late
Monday night when, with utter unex-
pectedness, the draft of the fundamen-
tai law which was supposed to have
persisted with the White regime was
officially promulgated and made the
parment basis Of the Russian state,
unalterable except on the initiative of
Emperor Nicholas or his successors.
Though the draft of the fundamental
law has undergone considerable edit
ing and numerous changes have been
made In it, in essence 1t remains iden-
tical with the project telegraphed to
the Associated Press on April "a,
which evoked a storm Of anger and
condemnation by the dominant Lib
eral party. Published at the present
instant when the people had been led
to believe that the unpopular draft
had been dropped and when the dis
missal of the old cabinet was accepted
as an indication of the desire on the
part Of the government to join hands
with the national parliament, the news
will arouse still greater indignation
and threatens to undo all the work
Of Prof. Milukoff and the other con-
stitutional democratic leaders in the
cause of moderation.
The only modification in the Con
stitution" as published, which meets
with favor is the elimination Of the
provision empowering the emperor to
fix salaries and pensions of officials
thereby subjecting even the judiciary
to the possibility Of undue financial
influence. All the other changes are
in the direction Of further buttressing
the imperial power, protecting the
crown lands and properties from in

egates present and they had no
more to say about the selection of

tail. A thousand good and true men
