Washington, D. C.?Beyond the statement
given out at tbe White House explaining
the visit of Commissioner
Wright to Philadelphia to meet Mr.
Mitchell, there were no developments
on Tuesday in regard to tbe coal strike.
The statement from the White House
follows:
"On Monday, October G, the Hon.
Carroll D. Wright, Commissioner of
Labor, went to Philadelphia and gave
to Mr. John Mitchell tbe following
from tbe President:
- 'If Mr. Mitchell will secure the immediate
return to work of tbe miners
IB ioc aniurame ivyiunit i >ie rn-Mucui
will at once appoint a commission to
Investigate thoroughly Into all matters
t Issue between the operators and
mluert, and will do all within bis
power to obtain a settlement of i iiom
questions In accordance with the report
of the commission/
"Mr. Mitchell has taken this matter
tinder consideration, but the President
Has not jet been advised of any derision."
The foregoing statement was issued
after a conference with Attorney-Geutral
Knox, Postmaster-General Payne,
Mr. Sargent, and General Jumes 8.
Clirksou. The President also conferred
with Dr. Albert Shaw and Dr.
Lyman Abbott.
There was a report in circulation to
tlM' effect that the President would
apiwint a commission to Investigate the
strike regardless of the action of Mr.
Mitchell and bis associates on the proposition
to Immediately resume work.
There vu no authority for this report,
nor was It probable that the President :
would fire any intimation of what be
would do in the event of his proposition
being declined. What he most earnestly
desires is to secure a resumption
bf work in the mines that, the threatened
public distress may be averted,
and It la not at all likely that be will
do anything to interfere with that consummation
or that be will take any
,Mep that would Indicate a belief that
the President has any authority to intervene
in the settlement of tbe trouble*.

to relieve the situation If given the
protection of the full military power
of the State?
After a most careful Inquiry among
the district officers, not including the
district Presidents, and the rank audi
lie of mine workers, it was found that:
sentiment la strongly against accepting
the President's proposition la Its present
form. to the other feature of
the situation, as it existed, opinion in
divided, and will remain so until the
real test comes. The President's message
to Mr. Mitchell was earnestly discussed
by the striking miners and cltlsens
generally.

that Mr. Mitchell does not regard

by Secretary Cortelyou and

As the carriage appeared on Hie aveue
the President wan greeted with

be marshals of the parade and Hawins

at the foot of the Capitol. The
eterans faced the carriage as the
resident drove by and saluted him.
'here was continuous cheering from

long.
Less than thirty-five minutes were
r>nsumed In the Journey, and when the
Hiite House was reached Secretary

For Ave hours the Grand Army of the

The ranks of the Grand Army have
een thinned by death: one New York
ost. which sent eighty men to rho envnpment
of 1W>2. sent only thirty to
Ills, and In addition there were miniem
of Grand Army men in the crowds
'bo had attended the encampment, but
ere unable to march from the inflrmies
of age. But. after allowing for all
l\js the number of men in line was
till surprising. Another fact that was
marked upon by the spectators was
le fine appearance presented by many
f the pott*. Many of them, partlcuirly
those from the Atlantic States,
larcbed and looked like soldiers still.
"Daughters of the Post" were Humerus.
and some of them were so prettily

fashion that they got more applause

The order calling out the Guard Is as
follows:
"In certain portions of the counties
of Luzerne. Schuylkill. Carbon. Lacka- i
wanna. Susquehanna. Northumberland
and Columbia, tumults and riots frequently
occur, and mob law reigns; ,
men who desire to work have been
beaten and driven away and their fam- i
Hies threatened. Railroad trains have i
freeu delayed, stoned and the tracks
torn up: the civil authorities are una- <
ble to maintain order, and have called !
upon the Governor and Commander-in- I
Chief of the National Guard for troops. I
The situation grows more serious each
day. The territory Involved Is so extensive
that the troops now on duty I
are Insufficient.to prevent all disorder.
The presence of the entire division Na- ]
tlonal Guard of Pennsylvania is neces- <
i nary in these counties to maintain the <
public peace. 1
"The Major-General commanding will 1
place the entire division on duty, dls- i
tributing them iu such localities as will
render tb?m most effective for preserr- 1
ing the public peace. <
"As tumults, riots, mobs and disorder I
usually occur when men attempt to* 1
work In and about coal mines, he will 1
see that all men who desire to work
and their families have ample military
protection. He will protect all trains '
and other property from unlawful In- j
terference. and will arrest all persons
engaging In acts of violence and intimidation
and hold them under guard until
tb?ir release will not endanger the
public peace: will see that threat*, intimidations
and all acts of violence
cease at once. The public peace and
good order will lie preserved upon all
occasions and throughout the several
counties, and no Interference whatever
will te permitted with officers and men
in the discharge of their duties under
this order. The dignity and authority
of the State must be maintained and
her power to suppr?ss all lawlessness
within her borders be asserted."
The order Is signed by William A.

and by Thomas J. Stewart as
tb?< Adjutant-General.

of the Royal Ulster Yacht Cluh and

containing the challenges goes to the

The Hon. Charles Russell represented
Sir Thomas Lipton when the challenge
was signed. Neither he nor any of

those which wore agreed to last year.
The firm contest* for the trophy will

the America's Cup. Sir Thomas Upton
said:
"I cannot discuss the terms until the
officials of the New York Yaeht Club

think I would try my luck for the
third time unless I thought I had a
pretty good r ha lire. No other Britisher
has exhibited any desire to lift the
cup. If anylwdy had turucd up I
would willingly nave made way for
tilm. But I cannot let the chance go
altogether.
"I certainly l?elieve Shamrock III.
prill be an improvement on the last
challenger. If she is beaten the Americans
will have to produce a better
boat than can l>e built in the United
Kingdom."

of former years is followed a

arrange the details of the contest with
representatives of Sir Thomas Upton's

ind this committee will hare full pow?

the club to the match. It Is also probable
at this 'meeting, or at all events
