WII.LING TO G0 EVrN M4ORE THAN HALF WAY But are Chary of Operatora and the inud ingo of a Comniesion Could Not be ilud Ing Upon the Operators of Coal Car rying;Roadse. President John Mitchell of the United Mine Workers has refused to comply with the appeal of President Roosevelt to call the strike off. His letter to the President, which was made public at the White House, says the responsibility for the con tinuation of the strike should be placed upon those who have refused arbitration. President Mitchell's let. ter follows: Wilkesbarre, Pa., ikon. Theodore Roosovelt, President of the Umited States, Washington, D. C. Dear Sir: Hon. Carroll D.

We desire to assure you againj that we feel keenly the responsibiliiy of our position and the gravity of the situation, and sit would give us great pleasure to t ake act ion which would bring this coal strike to ain end in a manner that would safe guard the interests of onr const it. t uents. In proposing that there be an im. mediate refinmption of coal mining upon conditions we suiggeistod in the conference at the White House we believed that wen had gone more thani half way and had imt your wishes. It I is nnecessary in this letter to refer to the malicious assault made upon us in the response oIf the coal I operators.

"To the ordinary observer one would think it comparatively easy to commit a crime whether of robbery or bf homicide, and escape detection, especially in a large city like New York. It would appear to be very easy in that wvhirlpool of humanity for a man to secrete himself, lie low, wait until the affair blew over and then seek safety in flight and ob livion in some distant part of the country. To a stranger it would seem that a man could be entirely lost from observation in New York, where one does5 niot know the resi dlenits of his own apartment house, or even those on the samn floor with him, much less the people upon the b)lock. "The two great reasons why such an escape is not mado by the culprit lie ini his lack of nerve, once blood has been shed b)y him, and from the furthe~r fact that we all have our little worlds in which we live, and whoii a st ranger comes over the thes hold t hereof we at onice (detect his proerence.
