MINE WORKERS

Rejection of All Demands
Has Caused Bitter Feeling
Another Attempt Today.

Outlook in the Coal Field ls

Demands Made.

Philadelphia, March IL. - Another
conference was held today at the
Reading terminal building here be-
tween representative Of the United
Mine Workers OF America and Of the
anthracite coal operators, the spokes-
man Of the former being President
Thomas L. Lewis, while President
George F. Bser Of the Reading took
the lead among the operators.
The operators remained firm In their
refusal TO accede to the demands OF
the men, and the mine workers xers
equally firm In declining to renew for
three years the wage agreement which
expires March 81.
President Lewis and his associates
were angry at the uneompromising att
titude taken by the operators and frees
ly admitted that great eoe3 strike
was likely to occur.
Following are the demands OF the
mine workers, which the operators re-
fused:
First-That an agreement shall be ne
gotiated between the Representatives zof
the miners and the operators of the an
thracite region, and all disputes arising
under the contract shall be adjusted an
provided for In the said agreement.
Second.-The coInplete recognition OF

VACCINATION PARTIES
ARE NOW QUITE THE FAD

For those who wish to be In the
swim the very latest wrinkle in this
city is vaccination parties. The idea
is to make an engagement to have
your family physician come to the
house. Then invite a number of
your friends and neighbors, who
wish to be vaccinated, and let the
doctor treat each. one in turn. An
ante room may be utilized for the
scene of operations, If desired.
After all have been inoculated
with the cowpox, and the physician
has left, the social feature comes in.
Luncheon or dinner may then be
served and music is always enjoya-
ble-that is good music. There need
be no fear of the labor unions be-
cause there are scabs in the room.
One such party was held at the
residence of well-known family in
lower High street last evening, and
others are in contemplation. In
formal dress is permissible for these
affairs. for short sleeves would
hardly be becoming.

MANDAMUS
REFUSED IN
De VITO CASE
Port Reading Man Fails to
Secure Writ to Amend
Records.
JUDGMENT FOR GIRL
MAY NOW BE PAID
Application Made to Supreme
Court by Robert Adrian,
De VitO'S Counsel.

The Supreme Court has denied the
defendant in the case of Elsie Hanson
vs.. Joseph De Vito, writ of manda-
mus to compel Justice Bergen, as Judge
of the circuit court, to- amend the rec.
ord. This is another victory for Joseph
b. Stricker, attorney for Elsie Hanson
in this famous case, and it is more than
likely that De VITO, the rich contractor
Of Port Reading, will settle the claim.
Joseph E. Stricker started suit for
Elsie Hanson, by her next friend, her
father, about May ], 1905. Hommann
& Strieker then represented the plain
tiff, by Mr.. Stricker. The defendant
was represented by Woodbridge &
March and Senator Robert Adrain.
Following that trial, verdict of SO 800
was given to Miss Hanson. A rule to
show cause why the verdict should not
be set aside as being excessive, was
denied and the matter was taken to the
Supreme Court, where the original YER
diet avs affirmed.
An application was afterwards made
to Justice Bergen for a rule to show
cause why the record should not be
amended and stay of execution issued,
was granted. An application, after
wards made to Justice Bergen to have
record in Middlesex County Circuit
Court amended from tort to contract,
was denied.
The property Of the defendant was
then advertised for sale and he made
application to the Supreme Court for
the writ of mandamus, which has been
refused and the Judgment will now most
likely be paid. The writ of mandamus
was to compel Justice Bergen, as cir
cult court judge to amend the record.
The defendant g object in seeking such
a writ was TO make new application
for writ of error. That cannot now
be done.

The woman who had been sought by
the police in Paterson and Jersey City
appeared in the rectory here and was

of the former housekeeper, was arrested
in Jersey City last night and brought

by the wounded housekeeper.
The sobbing of woman, as she
looked at the face of the priest in the
coffin yesterday, attracted the atten-
tion of Patrolman Schmidt, who was
guarding the body. The woman was
muttering something to herself in Polish
and the policeman asked a bystander
what she was saying. The man re-
piled that she had muttered, 81 can It

Schmidt took the woman to the police
station, where she said she was Mrs
Adam Sampson of 27 Jones street. She
said her husband told her on last Sun
day night that, standing IN the basement
of the church, he heard angry voices
coming from within, where there was
q meeting Of the young men of the
church. Threats against the life Of the
priest were shouted, and the husband
thought 1t was strange that the threats
should have been made in the church.
