tion or robbery, and that those miPE'
tions coma not go before Hi 3 jury

ant and White s relatives, who have

sues Strict Orders to Soldiers to
Prevent Strikers From Interfering
With Men Who Want to Work.
Now York, Oct, 10. An attempt to
force a settlement of the strlko is be'
ing made today. Strong pressure is
being brought to bear upon the oper
ators. The latter admit tho pressure,
but say they cannot bo forced by po
Htical or other forces to surrender
their attitude.
The conference of yesterday left an
ill feeling between the participants.
As a result, Quay, Penrose nnd Odell
went direct to Morgan this morning
and were clobeted with tho financier
for an hour aud a half. Tho senators
then returned to Piatt's office, leav
ing Odell with Morgan.
Governor Odell left after a short
time and was followed by tho finan
clcr, who told tho newspaper men ho
had nothing to say, and for them to
mind their own business. Odell went
to Piatt's office immediately.
The common belief on Wall street
is that Governor Odell has threatened
to call an extra session of the 'legls
lature and seize and operate tho coal
mines by right of eminent domain.
Morgan Is apparently very angry
Coal Presidents Arrive.
President Baer arrived at Senator
Piatt's office at noon and was shortly
afterward followed by President

brokers swarmed In tho hallways and
on tho pavements.
Nothing Accomplished.
The conference ended at 1:10. No
formal statement has been Issued but
Odell and Piatt said an adjournment
was taken until next Tuesday and
nothing definite had been decided up
on. Wall street says Morgan told Odell
that ho could not Interfere, as ho had
given his promise to keep his hands
off. Morgan said, however, that ho
would put no bars In the way of a con
ference with the operators.
Senators Quay and Ponrose expect
to return to Philadelphia this after
noon. Oppose Sympathetic Strike.
President 'Mitchell remains at tho
Ashland House, but is constantly ap
prised of conference doings by his
agents. Regarding the Denver offer
of Western miners to go on sympa
thetic strike, he said this morning he
had corresponded with them on tho
subject, but as most union miners in
the AVest and Northwest quartz and
coal men are in the minority, and lioj
had not reached a conclusion. The
general tenor of his remarks leads to
the belief that ho will not accept the
offer.
Charge of Conspiracy.
The Delaware & Hudson railroad
through Vice-President Wilcox, has
appealed to President Roosevelt to
take action against the United Mine
wonders unaer 1110 Hiierraan act. on

yesterday made tho most pocullar
ana sensational defense In a gam
bling caso over heard In tho muiilclpul
touri at Portland. He said:
"My clients havo boon hounded
like wolves and Hons. They have
boon dragged hero like criminals to
appoaso tho thirst of virtue of tho
church people, who have o'l a spasm
of reform.
"It was a sorry day when the men
became gamblers. They, however,
support themselves and families by
this avocation. They havo made It
their busineRg and could not do any
thing eiso, When the wave of good
ness was not rolling over the com
munity these men were allowed to
follow their occupations without mo
lestation. If It was right then to
gamble, It Is right now, Tho mon
aro only doing what they havo al
ways done. Because a streak of shorU
lived vlrtno Is abroad these mon aro
dragged hero like criminals, Those
men have gambled and will gamble
again and will not be molested. That
they should be punished now Is not
fair.' Remember these men aro poor.
and sinco tho crusade havo been out
of employment at tholr business,
They havo no monoy, and to convict
them would work a great hardship.
To find them guilty, yoir must not
