0. A. R. with a March. "
Washington, Oct. 0. Tho veterans .
of tho G. A. R. and thoir friends wero
ontortalneil yostorday by a parado
given in honor of tho naval vq(ernnst
and by a ntimbor of reunions hold in
tho big nsaombly touts at Camp Roose
volt. Tho weathor was threatening
during tho early morning, but tlio son
burst (through tho clouds about noon,
so that with tlio mild temperature that'
prevailed thoro was no reason for com
plaint on that score. Tho attendance
steadily increased during tho day, and
last night tho city was crowded as it
has been only on raro occasions.
Tho naval parado of tho forenoon was
not ns largo as many that have been
seen in Washington, but it was in every
way interesting, Tho votorans of the
ijavy appeared to bo an embodiment of
much of the nation's recent history,
and evory squad of thorn was an object
of interested observation. They were
gonorally old men, and many bore evi
dences of wounds recolvod in battlo.
In striking contrast to thorn wore the
young men of all tho branchos of tho
present sorvlco, who marched with
thorn ns an escort of honor, as it were.
This escort includod representatives of
both tho land and naval forces, and
thoy elicited much favorablo comment
for their fino appearance as men, as
thoy did for tho excollont discipline
displayed by them.
Tlio parado was under tho command
of General Hoy wood, commander of the
marine corps, ns marshal of tho day.
and consisted of all tho regular .troops
locntod in and about Washington, ma
rlnos and jackies from tho worships,
the Distiict of Columbia national
guard, tlio Spanish war votorans, 8ons
of Veterans, high school cadets and the
association of ex-prisonors of war, act
ing as escorts for tho naval votorans.
' COALMINCRS STILL FIRM.
Mitchell Claims Over Half of tha 17,000
at Work are Not Miners.
Wllkesbarro, Pa., Oct. 8. The be
ginning of tho 22d week of the strike
shows no matonal change in tlio situa
tion. Tho operators told President
Roosevelt on Friday that 17:000 mea
were ' at "wbrkyand''tnat4i5 jpVr cent of ;)
tho normal production was belnrr
mined. Prosidont Mitchell today do
niod that such n number of men are
mining coal. Ho said tho operators
wero including in tho 17,000 all tho
ongineors, flromoii, pumprunnurs, (of
whom thuio aro about 0,000), firo
bosses, clerks and other employes. Ho
also dented that 15 per cent of tho
normal production is boing sont to tho
markot, and said: "If this statement
wore true, tho operators uwo it to the
public to sell coal tit tho normal price,
instead of charging dealers i( 16 to
(20 n ton."
While the superintendents heron bouts
will not talk of future plans, there is
an improsslon among citizens generally
that a strong effort will bo made thin
week by tho coal companies to resume
operations, Tho officials of theso com
panics havo nil along maintained that
men aro ready to return to work, but
fear personal violence,
Mr. Mitchell says ho has no appro
hension of tho strikers breaking away.
Ho declares the companies are kceplns;
a constant pressure on tlio workers to
return, but without success. At Drif
ton, he said, tho coal company officials
had made a canvass of the community,,
and found only one boy, the son of a
non-union man,- who was willing to
return to work. Mr. Mitchell said lie
received this report from there today.
