CARDIFF. July 16-The South

A heavy rain was falling over the
entire district when the executive
council of the Miners Federation met
today to discuss the governments
proposal for n truce. Because of this
fact, few of the miners gathered in
Cardiff, and it was difficult to learn
whether the feeling of the men has
changed over night. Their leaders
refused to forecast what would hap
pen if the government attempted to
collect the fines for which each strik-
ing miner is liable under the muni-
tions act.
Railway lines all over Wales suf-

day for surplus stocks held by the

considered probable that if the strike

British navy.

One of the most important real
estate deals in the central business
section in some months has been
practically consummated within the
last few days, an agreement of sale
having been reached between Frank

ness property at 1875 Market street,

AS Mr. Spiegel is also owner of the
Newark Theater, his purchase of the
adjoining property is taken to indi-
cate either that he intends to enlarge
the seating capacity of hrs present

THAW IN NEWARK
RESTAURANT;;B|G
CROWD ON HAND
Comes Here in Automobile and
Is Cheered When Leaving
for Philadelphia.

Harry Kendall Thaw paid a visit to
Newark today. He came here by
automobile from New York and dined
in a restaurant at Market and Beaver
streets. He left an hour later, about
2;SO o'clock, and went back toward
New York.
Thaw was greeted here by a big
crowd that blocked the streets in the
vicinity of the place where he dined
AS he was leaving the restaurant he
was given a big cheer by the crowd.
The automobile went back toward
Jersey City
1t was said that Thaw came here
on his way to Philadelphia. When he
left the local restaurant, however.
the machine took a course which in
dicated he might have changed his
mind. The car started back down
Market street and disappeared into
Ferry street.
1t was afterward said he intended
to take train to Philadelphia.
Thaw barely left the automobile
here when he was recognized. With
in a few minutes the street was
crowded. Automobiles pulled up and
men rushed to the entrance of the
cafe, crowding it to suffocation.
Newsboys, their trade temporarily
forgotten, wormed their way in and
out, trying to get a glimpse of the
man just released from custody.
Accompanied by two private de-
tectives, Thaw mounted the stairs to
the restaurant on the second floor,
taking table near one of the Mar
ket street windows. Soon the room
was packed with men gazing curl
ously at the slayer of Stanford
White. Thaw did not seem to mind
the scrutiny, but sat as If wearied,
while those with him ordered his
luncheon.
Thaw was dressed in a light gray
suit and was accompanied by Daniel
w. Deane and Norman J. Fitzsim-
mons, detectives who are in Thaw's
employ.
Declines to Talk.
: When asked if he had any state
ment that he wished to make. Thaw
stated he had given out an inter-
view at New York, and that was the
only statement that he would make.
Let Harry get his lunch and he
will make statement afterward,"
said Deane.
THAT is not so.' said Thaw with
smile, but simply an idea of Mr..
Dedne = W dilOW Ine To nave
chance to get something to eat"
A telephone call was announced for
Thaw, and he quickly arose from
the table and entered the telephone
booth in the rear of the restaurant.
Where are you headed for?" was
the next question asked of the Thaw
party.
"Oh, we are just taking a little ride
around for the air." said Fitzsim-
mons, and he refused to comment
any further on their destination.
1t was learned, however, that the
probable destination of the party was
Philadelphia.
The party was accompanied as far
as Jersey City by Sheriff Grifhagen,
of New York, Under Sheriff Bowers
and Deputy Sheriff Miller. AS soon
as the New Jersey side of the river
was reached the sheriff and his two
assistants left Thaw in the hands of
the two private detectives and they
came direct to this city.
The Thaw party was followed by n
retnue of newspaper men represent
ing all the metropolitan and Phila-
delphia papers. The entire party
numbered about twenty-five people.
