Washington.-Pr Wilson told
J. i. Welborn. president of the Colo
rado Fdel and Iron Company, that he
believed it to be the duty of the oper
atcrs in Colorado to accept the basis
fer the settlement of the strike pro.
posed By Federal mediators. Welborn
told the President that the operators
objected to several points in the plan
but the President asked that they re-
cogsider the question.
In answer to the objections of Wei
born. the President declared he could
not act az the umpire between the op-
orators and the miners and that he
felt it the duty of the operators to ac-
cept the plan already adopted by the
miners.
The continuance of Federal troops
in Colorado was discussed and later it
was said the President would with
draw the troops unless satisfactory
settlement was reached. This was not
verified, however, in official quarters.
The President had expected to re-
ceive a committee representing the in
dependent coal operators involved in
the strike. Welborn tod MIN that
the other operators were unable to be
present, but would write The Presi-
dent asked that Welborn tell the other
operators thas he could not accept
refusal of the plan
Welborn presented an alternative
plan fer the solution of the strike
trouble, but the President refused to
consider it, saying that he did not be-
lieve compromise possible. The
President declared that the public in
terests demanded the end OF the strike
and that it was the patriotic duty OF
the mine operator to accept the pro
posal.
Welborn declared after his interview
with the President that the question
was still open and that he would report
the result of his talk to the other oper-
ators.

PRESIDENT
LUNCHEON GUEST
L. L. Lynn Pleads for Harmony
at Weekly Meeting of the
n
Local Commercial Club

Disclaiming that there are
any just grounds for any parti-
san or unfriendly rivalry be-
tween Kennewick and Prosser,
L. L. Lynn, president of the
Prosser Commercial club, in a
short talk at the weekly We'd
nesday luncheon of the local
club, made strong plea for
greater harmony and co-opera-
ton between the two commune
ties. Mr.. Lynn admitted that
the two towns had just grounds
for an open and honest differ
ence of opinion upon the county
seat question, but he insisted
that this quarrel should come to
issue only every four years and
not be injected into every rela-
ton between the communities.
He paid the citizens of Ken
newick a high compliment when
he said: 81 do not know the der
ivation of the word 'Kennewick'
but should I trace its origin, l
believe l should find that it
meant hospitality for at all
times and under all circum-
stances l have found true hos
to be one of the charac-
teristics of the Kennewic!: pee
pie. Even during those strenu-
GUS times of two years ago /

at the hands of your people"

from the county seat question,
the interests of the two ends of
the county are mutual ard that

NANIIAL DEALS IN
NEW YORK

NEW YORK, Nov 4.-Fritz Au-
gustus Heinze, who died tonight at
Saratoga, had a sensational career in
the financial world. After acquiring
a fortune Of millions through mining
interests in the west he came to New
York and became interested I'm other
ventures, most of which We're unsuc-
Cessful
For several years Mr.. Heinze has
been involved in litigation almost con-
stantly and it was said by his associ-
ates that he had lost large part of
his fortune.
From the time he was graduated
from the Columbia school of Mines in
1889 until his death, he was identi-
fed with mining ond the smelling op-
erations. His interests were especially
large in Montana and British Colum-
bia. In Montana he was at one time
power in politics.
After coming to New York in 1906,
he became president of the Mercantile
bank in 1907. and was soon beset by
business troubles Loans made dur
ing the panic of 1907, which the GOV
ernment asserted went to help his
brothers. otto and Arthur who COM
posed the firm of Otto HenZo q Co.,
resulted in his indictment on the
charge of misappropriation of S2,23j,-
600 of the banks funds. The case
against him eventually was dismissed.
Within the last month Mr. Hcinze
was defendant in a suit brought by
Edwin Gould to recover the proceeds
Of promissory notes aggregatng one
million dollars, which Gould alleged
Hein2e had give nhim in payment for
stock i'm the Mercantile bank. Gould
was successful in his suit
