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.

Paine's Celery Compound
The human system in old age must have
a sufficient store of nervous energy, and
rich, nourishing blood, so that the liver
and kidneys- may be kept in perfect action,
and the body free from pain. Palnes Cel
ery Compound Is the true invlgorator
when old age creeps on and the vital pow

Compound gives the needed stimulus to
digestloil and assimilation that the system
requires; It maintains a regular supply of
pure blood, and removes such troubles as
rheumatism, neuralgia, nervous weakness,
heart palpitation, liver complaint and di
gestive disturbances, that make the lives
of old people miserable. Rv. John Rice,

"My wife and I have used two bottles of
