WASHINGTON,- Oct. 27 The .Anthra cite Coal Strike Commission today. In the hearing-room of the Interstate Commerce Commission, held its first conference with parties to the controversy in the anthra cite regions. There -was a full representa tion of hoth operators and miners and members of the press, and a number of other interested parties were present. The commission occupied the elevated seats generally filled by members of the Interstate Commerce Commission, Judge Gray, as president, occupying the center, and Messrs. Wright, Watklns and Clark the seats to the right of his in the order named, while General Wilson, Bishop Spalding and Mr. Parker were at the left In the order named.Presldent Baer ten dered the commission a special traln.which vas declined, the members deciding to ask or accept tio favors.

B. Thomas, chairman of the board of the Pennsylvania Coal Company and Hillsdale Coal & Iron Company; Alfred Walter, president of the Lehigh Valley; W. H. Trueedalc, president of the Delaware Lacka wanna & Western; David 'Wilcox, vice-president of the Delaware & Hud son; John B.

Outlining: Commission's "Work. The proceedings covered about two hours' time, and were given up entirely to a discussion of the-time and method of proceeding with the proposed investiga tion. The commission decided to begin its work next Thursday morning at 9 o'clock, the first days of the investigation to be devoted to a physical examination of the miners and the homes of the miners, start ing in the vicinity of Scranton. The en tire anthracite .field will be covered. There was much discussion oyer a proposition made by the commission to have expert accountants appointed to audit the state ments of wages aha classification of min ers to be made by the operators for use of the commission, but no decision was reached on this point beyond the an nouncement by the chairman of the com mission's intention to appoint such an ac- countant in case ,hls services should be found necessary. Judge Gray, the president of the Com mission, read the order of the President creating the Commission, and In a general way outlined the procedure to be fol lowed from the presentation of the issues. He stated that In accordance with the Immemorial practice among . English speaking peoples, the commission would first receive the statement or demands of the miners, who were to be regarded for the purposes of this case as the prose cutors. The reply of the other side would then be heard, Judge Gray said, in order that the commission might have before it a definite issue. At the conclusion of Judge Gray's re marks. President Mitchell, stated that he had with him the formal demands made by the miners upon the operators, and at the suggestion of Judge Gray pre sented a copy of the original declaration of the miners, as formulated by the Sha mokin convention, as the basis of the de mands of the miners. This demand Is first for an increase of 2p per cent in wages of those not engaged by the day; second, a reduction of 20 per cent in work ing hours of those engaged by the day; third, the payment for coal mined by welghtot a. minimum rate of CO cents per ton of 2200 pounds; fourth, a wage agree ment between the operators and the min ers for an adjustment of wages. ( Baer Opens Fight on Mitchell. Mr. Baer, on the part of the coal oper ators, took exception to Mr. Mitchell's appearance before the commission as a representative of the mineworkers union, but said he had no objection to his pres ence as a representative of the strikers as such in their Individual capacity. Mr. Mitchell replied that the objections raised as to his status were not involved in the case. Jie said that he did appear as a representative of the anthracite coal min ers, and distinctly refrainedvin .his reply frommentionlng the union. T,ha commis sion made no attempt to settle the con troversy, otit It was made apparent that the recognition of the miners' union will be an important and knotty problem for the arbitrators. Preceding the discussion over appoint ing experts to audit the books, Mr. Baer said the operators would be prepared to meet the miners In the region, and to as sist in giving all information. Many of the individual operators were not repre sented, and had not been, consulted, and were not compromised by the letter ho had written. Judge Gray suggested that they could be represented. At the meeting next Monday the commission would deter mine which companies .should be taken up first, and the place of meeting could be de termined by the location of the coal com pany taken np. Mr. Baer made a point by saying that the case of each coal company should be dealt vith -separately. He would contend for the sliding scale in the regulation of wages. "I shall urge the adoption of that profit-sharing plan," he said, "which gave us peace formerly In our relations with our employes."' Objects-to yvori "Arbitration." Mr. Thomas, of the Hillside Iron & Coal and Pennsylvania Coal Companies, said' he noticed that the word "arbitration" had been applied to the commission's work, while he wanted it considered an Investi gation. Judge Gray, said that the President's in structions settled that as an arbitration. Mr. Thomas also urged that the con ditions in each of the mining companies were different, and ibuld only be consid ered separately. He thought more prog ress could be made by a physical examina tion of the coal region. He thought that as many of the interests involved in the controversy were represented in New York some of Its hearings should be held In that city. The suggestion that both sides appoint experts to examine the books cif the com panies was made by Judge Gray, chair man of the commission.- He said it would e a good plan for the different Interests to agree that the tabulated statements regarding the existing rates of wages In the. different localities be taken from the books of the operators by two expert ac countants, one to be named by each party, such accountants to be employes of the commission. Mr. Baer, after expressing his disinclination to accept this sugges tion, said his company would submit its pay-rolls under oath of the accountant. He said the company now had 70 clerks working day and night In compiling data for the commission. President Mitchell said it would facili tate the work of x the commission if It would accent a general statement on those Issues that affect all the companies and J the mineworkers alike for example, the question of shorter hours. rMr."Truesttale said his company had a plan by "which "it hoped speedily to adjust the differences between his company and the men. . This plan was for the miners to appoint a committee to meet a com mittee of his company and discuss their grievances, and if there were any such that could not be settled, then those Is sues should go before the commission for final arbitration. President Wilcox, speaking for his com- jiany, said the whole matter was one of figures. Debate Over Statistics. Dr. Wyl, for the miners, said If the suggestions of the chairman were accept ed, Mr. Mitchell and himself would not present the statistics they had prepared, because they were ready to concede that these figures were not as full and correct as they would be if taken from the books of the several companies. President Baer, however, thought that these statistics would be a check on the pay-rolls of the companies, and should be presented. Mr. Mitchell responded tnat he would .not be insistent on.the subject, and, turn ing to Mr. Baer, said: "If we are able to agree as to what rates are paid for different classes of workmen, their monthly and annual earnings, that would form a basis of any arguments that might be made on either side." Judge Gray expressed the opinion that it WQuld be a criminal waste of time to dis pute over facts that could be veritably and accurately ascertained without dis pute". "When, once ascertained," said he, "their interpretation is another thing." Mr. Mitchell again said it was his desire to facilitate maTteri?,,and that there should be mutual agreement on the facts and that controversies should be eliminated U possible. "That is the only object we have in view," said he, "in asking that the rates of wages as shown by the books of the companies be verified In advance." President Baer responded by saying the men would know whether the pay-rolls of the companies were right, and that no is sue would arise on that subject. "Will your statement give the different classes of workmen? Inquired -r. Mitchell. , "Undoubtedly," said Mr. Baer. Grnylodiileii llln Suggestion. After further controversy between the members of the commission and the min ers and mine, represtjntatlves, Judge Gray modified his suggestion, this time pre senting -it in the shape -of a proposition that only one expert accountant be ap pointed, who shouid? analyze the statement made by both sides to the controversy, and verify the facts for the consideration of the commission. Mr.. Baer promptly ac cepted this suggestion, -and Mr. Mitchell followed suit after a brief explanation on his nart. He said the plan was not en tirely In accord with the wishes of the miners, who are anxious to avoid all con troversy as to the Interpretation of figures. President Gray then announced that the commission for the present would proceed without appointing an expert, nut that It would require that statements should be prepared, and then ho added, an account anfshould be secured In case It was found his services were needed. The question of the examination by the commission Into the conditions under which the min ing of anthracite coal was conducted was tnen entered upon, and Mr. -Watklns, of the commission, suggested that a week or 10 days' time would be necessary In order to make un adequate examination of the physical conditions of the mines. He ap pealed to Mr. Thomas for his opinion as to the time necessary, and that gentleman replied: "You will certainly need that much tlne; I should think that 20 days would be none too little. We've grown gray in bur study of that question." Mr. Baer also fell In with the sugges tion, 3aying It would be Impossible to do Justice to the investigation without a com plete Inspection of the mines and the methods of operating them. Mr. Mitchell thought that not only should there be an inspection of the mines but also of the homes of the miners. He considered this investigation necessary to a complete understanding of the subject. Decision to Begin .Investigation. After consulting the members of the commission, President Gray announced that it would begin Its inspection next Thursday, commencing its work In district No. 1, in which the City of Scranton Is located. While no conclusion was reached on the subject, the conversation among the members of the committee Indicated that it is their purpose to Investigate the mining operations in a number of the mines. ' While the subject was up, Mr. Baer said the operators would furnish all facilities at their command -to enable the commls slon to make Its Investigation thorough. adding that they would place a special train at the disposal of the commission, providing also for the accommodation ot a representative of the miners. The public meeting of the commission then came to a close, and the com.mis sloners retired for the purpose of private consultation. They first took up the ques tion which had been raised by the proffer of a special train by Mr. Baer, and unani mously decided not to accept the train The exchange of views which followed brought out the fact that the commls sloners expect personally to pay all of their expenses, accepting no favors and relying on the Government to reimburse them If so disposed. Official stenogra phers to report the proceedings of the commission .and also secretaries for the members were appointed. An agreement was reached to leave the Hotel Jermyn in" Scranton at 9 o'clock next Thursday morn ing for. the first tour of Inspection. There was, however, no agreement as to what mines should be visited first, '. that point being left for future determination. LOVE IN A NUTSHELL. Love Takes Jtor Its Companion a.
