Mitchell's Move Has Placed Rail

Philadelphia, April . It is admitted
at Bwr i headquanenrtn-thia eity this

absolutely refuse to submit any ques
tions at issue with the miners to arbi
tration. ;
S tJemal apodal ServM .)
Mew Turk, AprU e,rlt la believed
to be almost ceruin that the anthracite
operators will -be forced to accept the
miners' proposition for arbitration, la
which' the strike commission of !,
with Judge George Gray of Delaware,
r u; person he may appoint. aa chair
man, act as arbitrators. It Is thought
that Mitchell's move has - placed the
operators where they must accept or be
placed before the publlo as unreason
able la their demands and la an un-
yielding -mood, The- operators realise
the need ef every bit of public senti
ment In their faror that they oan get
' The answer of the operators will not
be received, until Monday. If they
. acres to the' plan and It Is approved by
the convention of miners operations in
ths hard coal fields will be resumed at
' ence and 1(0,000 men now Idle will re
turn to work, , -
Were It not for publlo . sentiment
there 1s little doubt that the operators
would flatly refuse the miners' proposal
for arbitration oa ths around that ex
isting conditions ars ths result of ar
bitration. It Is admitted on ail sides
that by the proposal Mitchell has won
a strategio victory and placed the min
ers In sa unassailable position 'before
the public, completely reversing ths po
sition In which - ths operators - have
striven with their press bureau to place
themselves In that of having had the
strike forced upon them through . the
miners' unreasonable demands.
. The conciliation board to. whom the
miners propose to submit their grlev
ances consists of six members, three
' representing the operators and three the
minora - The award of the strike oom
mission provided . that when it oould
not agree federal Judge la the third
Judicial distiiot should appoint aa um
pire, who should make a decision. Judge
George Grey, president of the . strike
commission, mads ths appointments.
Reports from various sections of ths
bituminous fields show that ths opera
tors are gradually signing ths scale, and
that more men ars at work and' mors
coal produced today than at any time
for a week past,.

Puel company will make no further at
tempt to secure a franchise to Install a
steam heating, cold storsge and eleotrio
light and power plant In the business
district of ths city. He lays all the
blame for his failure to secure Jiis
franchise to Mayor Laos, whose veto
to the franchise ordinance was sustained
by ths city council. He declares that,
Mayor Xane promised to sign ths fran
chise ordinance. r r
' "I never told Mr. Banfleld that I
would - alga hla - franchlst ordinance,"
said Mayor Lane today. "I never told
anybody that I would do so and Mr.
Banfleld is very much mistaken when
he save I did.". . .
After ths ordinance was vetoed.' Mr.
Banfleld submitted . a supplementary
proposition and. offered a bond covering
all the objections the mayor had made
with tho-esception of -the compens
tton of 1 per cent of the gross earnings,
which the mayor thought too small.
Several ef the counctlmea who sustained
the veto thought that ao long as-Mr.

DRY T0RTUGAS TRANSFER
SUBJECT OF DISCUSSION
- Washington, April (. Tigs abandon
ment of Dry Toitugaa as a naval coaling
station will not be made without opposi
tion, although Secretary Bonaparte - Is
somswhat. In favor of the transfer of
the reservation--to- the treasury department-
1 y which the place Is desired for
Quarantine purposes. The secretary
holds that there should be some consid
eration In ths transfer and that ths
navy department should be compensated
for some of the outlay st the place,
which bas amounted to 1600,000. The
naval general board bas urged that the
naval property at Dry Tprtugas be trans
ferred to .Ouantanamo. -The wisdom of
abandoning ths costing plant -at ths
rormer . place . la . much . questionsd in
aome quarters, notwithstanding ' ths
point made by ths general board that It
is difficult and costly to fortify, and
would prove a menace to the govern
ment In time of war by inviting the
enamy to attack and obtain ths supply
of ooal kept at the ststlon. - On the
other hand, It is maintained that It is
necessary to keep a coaling station tt
the entrance to the gulf, and that there
should be liberal expenditure of gov
ernment funds In establishing the de
fenses, whloh will have to be built at
Ouantanama If that place la converted
into a base and supply station and dock
yard. The fight is becoming Interesting,
and U la likely that before there is a do-.
Alston, naval officers who ars In favor
or keeping Dry Tortugns will no heard
on that aide of the question.
ARMORED CRUISERS
TO VISIT NEW YORK
. New Tork, April . Ths navy depart-,
ment baa decided to send the armored
cruisers of the Atlantic fleet to the
navy yard at Brooklyn, In accordance
with the recommendations of the board
of construction. Ths first of these ves
sels will appesr here for an overhauling
about the end of this month and the
others will reach ths yard at Intervals
of two weeks. The orders are that work
on each ship shall be limited to what
may be done In 10 days, the idea being
to have not more than two of the oruis
srs at Brooklyn at the same time. Other
ships of the fleet will appear period
ically at Brooklyn and will be docked
and repaired in some cases and merely
generally overhauled In others, with a
view to more extensive Repairs In the
fall. The exhaustion of the fund for
care and preservation under the con
struction and engineering bureaus had
Its effect on the volume of work which
Is planned for the Brooklyn yard, but
the bulk of repair work and most of the
docking will necessarily be done here,
although soma will be done at Norfolk.
