HE IS FOR HOPKINS.
Colonel Roosevelt Wrote a Letter to
Illinois Legislator.

Springfield, Ill, March 11.-Repre-
sentative Cornelius I. Ton mas ex-
planned in the house a shift in his
vote on the senatorship to former
Senator Hopkins. He stated that he
had believed Senator Hopkins had not
been in harmony with the Roosevelt
administration and that he had writ
ten to Mr.. Roosevelt for information.
His reply was confidential, said
Representative Ton.
In response to demands of the
Democrats. he read the letter, which
was as follows:
white House. Washington. Feb.
l.. 1909.-My Dear Mr.. Ton: This
letter must be treated as confidential,
as it is not my business to interfere in
a state senatorial fight. But there is
no reason why I should not con-
fdentiaIIy answer your private ques
ton. Ny understanding is that the
popular vote at the primary declared
in favor of Senator Hopkins. That
being the case, it seems to me that it
is not good faith to fail to support him.
MY personal views about Senator Hop
kins are of no consequence, but as you
ask for them. I will say that he has
been one of the constant and loyal
supporters of the great majority of the
policies with which this administra-
ton has been identified and personally
1 earnestly hope for his reelection.
Sincerely yours,

perty, four miles east of Murray, gave

of the cavein. Warned by previous ex-
perience they had with them a long
pipe two inches in diameter. They
drove this tube through the debris to
secure ventilation and undertook to
burrOw out. Their digging was useless
for the loosened earth ran down faster
than they could remove it. At supper
time they We're missed and their pre-
dicament was soon learned. Ranchmen
and miner formed relief party which
set to work and labored heroically night
and day. Hope grew high as the barri-
cade was reduced to a few feet. only to
vanish as fresh masses of shale rum
bled down from the insecure roof. The
prisoners, although supplied with air
through the pipe, We're weak from
hunger, chilled by the water which rose
to their knees and terrified by the con-
Stant peril of instant burial.
When the rescuers had removed but

were no more retreats. Daylight final

delay, Mr.. Johnson told the imprisoned
men to stick their feet out. Muddy
boots appeared in the opening and in a
moment George Peterson was being
brushed and hugged by his friends.
Jerry, who was rescued in the same
manner, insisted on walking to the
works.

WANT MANY THINGS.
Demands Anthracite Miners Will
Make on Operators.

Philadelphia, March 11.-With a keen
desire to reach an early decision and
thus avoid suspension of work the
representatives of the United Mine
Workers of America and the presidents
of the coal carrying railroads met to-
day in the office of President Bier of
the Reading company and began nego-
tiations for new agreement to go into
erect at the expiration of the present
working agreement on March 81. Not
since the present organizations became
active in the anthracite regions of
Pennsylvania have the workmen and
the employers entered upon negotia-
tionS with a better feeling and with
better prospects of reaching a settle
ment without resorting to radical ac-
ton.
Thomas L. Lewis, national president
of the miners, who later met the hard
coal operators in formal conference for
the first time. arrived from the west
early today and before going to the
Joint meeting held formal conference
with the officers and executive board
members of the anthracite districts.
The demands of the anthracite min
ers as drafted at a convention in
Scranton last October and approved
by the national convention at Indian
apolis in January includes a demand
for the complete recognition of the
United Mine Workers of America, as
tracts: an hour day with no Teduc-
tion in wages; that all coal be mined
and paid for by the ton of 1000 pounds;
a definite and more uniform scale of
wages and prices for all classes of la
Dor at all collieries in the anthracite
region, and that all employees paid 81 80
or less per day shall receive a 10 per
cent advance and all employees paid
more than $1.50 and less than 81 per
day shall receive a 5 per cent advance;
that the contract shall be made for q
period of one year.
When the demands became known to
the operators several months ago they
made public a statement that the de-
mands would not be granted and
strongly intimated that they would ask
that the present three years agreement
be renewed. The present agreement is
the same as the working arrangement
made by the anthracite coal strike
commission in 1908
