LOTOS CLUB SOLD.
old Home. Which Cost $780,
900. Brings S7SO,OOO.

The old home Of the Lotos Club. Nos.
SIS and SIS Fifth avenue. sold yester-
day by The trustees of the club 10 a specu-
lative syndicate. comprising the Alliance
Realty Company. Heilner & Wolf and
Daniel B. Freedman. for about S7so.e00. The
site has a frontage of 50 feet and depth
of 10 feet. II is diagonally opposite the
Windsor Arcade. which occupies the en-
tire block front on the easterly side OF
the avenue from 46th to 9th street. ". d
J. Sloane leased last week the northerly
half Of the arcade plot. on which an eight
story building for the exclusive use of the
carpet and furniture house will be built.
Overtures TO lease the southerly half OF
the premises have been made by a num-
Der Of well known retail business con
Germs. and II is thought that one Of them
will get control Of il in the near future.
Abutting the old Lotos club site is the
Fifth Avenue Baptist Church. When plans
were being considered some months ago
for a s500On0 edifice TO replace the present
home OF the church. il was thought that
the church would buy the club property.
in order TO provide a Fifth avenue en-
trance for the proposed building. The
church, however. enlarged its site by
getting title TO parcels fronting in Sth
street
The Lotos Club decided 10 move further
uptown about four years ago. on October
% 1896. Jacob Nesdle. a well known specu-
lator. signed a contract TO purchase the
property for S75oeo0. Soon afterward Mr..
Neadle and the club figured in a legal dis
pute. due entirely 20 the plans for widen
ing Fifth avenue. II was smicably settled
by the club retaining ownership OF the
property.
The club paid about $4,000 for the prop
erty sixteen years ago. Its new home is
al Nos los and 10 West 57th street.

STATEMENT ISSUED
BY PRESIDENT LEWIS
Declares Miners Will Re-
turn to Work Tuesday.
Gives Their Views.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, April H.
The expected statement from Presi-
dent Lewis was issued by that official
soon after ! o'clock this afternoon. II
Is as follows:
1T Is 10 be regretted that the anthra-
cite operators and miners representa-
tives were unable to leach an agreement
in this city this week
The representatives, of the miners
organization, acting with authority from
the Scranton convention OF The anthra-
cite mine workers, decided to meet the
operators in a spirit of Cancellation and
absolute fairness.
The miners representatives finally
decided to accept the terms Of the award
of the strike commission and TO con-
tinue II for period Of three years,
with the following added thereto:
tirst-That where the wages Of en-
plOyes have been reduced during the
past three years. In violation of the
award OF the strike con omission, that
the rate of wages be restored TO that
flXsd by The strike commissions S award
Second-Ihat the right 20 hire and
discharge was recognized rs being eX-
elusively vested in the mine manager,
but that in case of discharge the rfsht
OF appeal should be recognized in order
that the question of discrimination
mi ht be determined.
should take place at any colliery during
the investigation and final adjustment
OF any differences that might arise be-
tween the employer and employe.
"Fourth-That the agreement should
be signed on behalf of the United Mine
workers OF the Anthracite Coal Region.
1T is said that the operators have
granted a concession. This 1 cannot un-
derstapd. as the operators refused to
agree to restore the wages of those men
which had been reduced during the past
three years In direct violation Of the
award OF the strike commission.
THE operators representatives refus-
ed likewise to permit the miners repre-
sentatlVes to sign any proposition on
beAalf Of the United Mine Workers OF
the Anthracite Region.
Great stress has been given TO the
strike commissions award by the
operators in stating that the award
did not provide for the signing of any
agreement with the United Mine
Workers Of thu anthracite region.
The representatives of the anthracite
United Mine Workers were a unit in
their position when presenting and de-
Tending propositions submitted 10 the
operators. T L LEWIS"
The Washington times., 1909-04-10

Washington's 100000. after the forty
penitentIal days Of Lent and the Incl
dental abstinence from many of the
pleasures Of society, turned out bright
and early today-some Of them to make
last preparations for the celebration Of
Easter and the return 10 the gayeties of
the waning season.
Although ola Winter, grim and gray
and grouchy, gave one short clod blast
from his storage plant UP on the Vir-
ginia and Maryland hills. and although
the thermometer showed but little mer-
curry In the tube, and the snow came
down with the Old Mans blast. il was
but the expiring breath of the Ruler Of
the Kingdom Of Ice, and a few minutes
after the first fake fell came the last
and the sun shone again.
Sun viii Shine.
1t will stay out. the weather man
thinks, for the rest OF today, and Will
be up very early with clear eye and
brain tomorrow to give US the best
spring sunshine he has I'm his shop.
Winter may take one more feeble bite
at Washington, but unless the weather
man is wrong again. Easter Sunday, a
little cool, will stjll be comfortable
enough for the display OF spring fash
ions.
In spite OF the chill breath of the
Old Man Of Ice which came down On
Washington several days ago, the dawn
of this the last day before Easter, cele-
brated all over the Christian world. saw
hundreds Of people up hong before their
usual time. and scores OF them were
vending their way to market and store
hours earlier thaa Is customary.
Even the Saturday market crowd was
surpassed and left far 5shind. The
early user of the street cars found him
self in almost evening rush OF intend
ing celebrators, bound down town to
make the last purchases for Sunday and
Easter.
Bringing In Produce.
The long line Of farmers wagons.
which creak and groan over the Vir-
ginia countryside and come trundling
down into the sleeping city every morn
ing save Sunday, wss longer and heav-
Ter laden and much more noisy than
ever this morning. for from all the
farms near Washington came dozens on
dozens Of eggs. chickens. ducks. vege-
tables. and even flowers. not the hot
house product.
By the time the big creaking wagons.
