a group of Hindus, Americans and

Garfield thought that "only con-
sultative body should be created.
II knew what the president
meant" Mr.. Palmer said, when
questioned by Senator Wolcott,
democrat, of Delaware, as to
whether the memorandum of agree
ment had carried out the presi-
dents Intention He added under
further questioning that there was
no authority under which the
government could fix wages, but
that much Of the agreements
force would depend on public opin-
ion (which has not lost it's power
in the United States"
Attorney Butler, when called
to the stand, declared that the final
memorandum of agreement be-
tween the attorney general and
the miners was dramatically op-
posed" to that Of DR.. Garfield
which the operators had accepted.
CDR. Garfield never contemplate
ed a commission to fix prices, for
one thing" he said.
Senator Townsend, at the con-
clusion of his testimony, asked for
some one who could speak for the
mine operators, and Ogle was call
ed.
After a moment of fencing with
Senator Townsend and confer-
ence with Mr.. Butler, he proceeded.
Operators Stand Firm.
"On Friday, December 5, after
DR.. aGrfield's proposal had been
rejected by the mixers and the
injunction proceedings were being
pushed at Indianapolis" Mr.. Ogle
said, members of the coal opera
tors executive committee and
myself were called in for a talk
with the attorney general in his
office. He said that we must have
some figure for a wage advance
above the IA per cent suggested
by DR.. Garfield which we would
be willing to offer the miners, in
order to settle the situation. The
government was not engaged In
compromising it's stand, he said,
but had some difficulties. =
"The injunction proceedings
were coming to a head at Indiana
polls, Tuesday, he told us, and they
were afraid Judge Anderson would
act in a characteristic fashion and
put some of these men in Jail for
his injunction under the
Lever act. There might be a
uprising, he said, which
ought to be avoided.
"He said that the fuel admins
traitor was only a temporary Off
cial, and that his proposal of a
IA per cent increase could be set
aside. He asked US how far we
would go in a further advance of
"What answer nd you make?"
Senator Frelinghuysen inquired.
eve told him that the question
Of miners wages and prices of
coal had now become relatively
insignificant" Ogle responded.
ut seemed to US a question of law
and order, an issue that could not
be yielded. We said settle
ment now by granting an increase
would be a dastardly, coward'y
surrender of principles that must
be sustained"
"You believed this an effort 70
compromise ?" Senator Freling-
nuysen pursued.
eve did" Ogle returned, "and
We rejected the idea"
"Have you agreed to the gov.
ernment's proposition now" Sena-
;or Townsend asked.
eve have not u" Ogle responded.
The proposal has never been
submitted to US. We have called
The attorney generals attention toI
several vital changes made in DR..
Iarfield's original suggestion"
Supporters had been left "very
much confused" he said further,
