who seemed much incensed that the
president should take such a stand,
and after a conference 1t vas decided
that the works here will be closed

his predecessor, Mr.. Roosevelt, who
practically forced arbitration during
the memorable strike of anthracite
coal miners.
Since Special Agent Harry w. Hoag.
land was sent here to probe strike
conditions, and incidentally to probe
the peonage charges, 1t has been a
matter of much comment that Attor-
ney General George w. Wickersham
seemed to be cognizant Of very little
that was transpiring during the ex-
animation of witnesses. 1t now tran
spires that the reports of Agent Hoag-
land have been sent direct to the sec
Rotary Of the president, and that Mr..
Taft has been the directing power in
the entire probe.
Not only has the president been kept
Informed as TO the evidence produced
at the open examination. but he has
had his own secret ageINs upon the
ground, who have made confidential
reports to him. These reports are said
to uphold the peonage charges, and
when made public will show that the
imported workmen were under-fed;
that they we're hired under false pre-
lenses and that they were ~browbeaten

imported from Canada, and who, I'M
