Miners Willing to Let Conciliation Board Settle Trouble. New York, April 6. Having failed to come to an agreement themselves, the hard coal miners of Pennsylvania, through their representatives, today proposed to the operators that all mat ters in dispute be referred to board of arbitration for settlement, the tribunal to be composed ot the board ot concili ation which was created by the award ot the Anthracite Strike commission in 1903, with Judge Gray, of Delaware, or any person he may appoint, as chair man and umpire. It the operators ac cept the proposition and a convention ot mineworkers approves the plan, the 160,000 men now idle in the anthra cite fields will return to work at once. While it had been reported for several days that the miners might ask that the differences lie arbitrated, the prop osition came to them as a great sur prise, as they did not believe the union leaders were ready to leave the contro versy to a third party at this time. That the operators will accept the miners' proposal as submitted is not generally believed; intact, it is inti mated they may flatly refuse th offer, on the ground that existing conditions are the result ot arbitration. The em ployers have decided to consider the miners' latest move and promise to give President Mitchell and his men an answer on Monday, when another meeting of the two sub-corn in itiees will be held in this city. The anthracite board of conciliation consists of six members three repre senting the operators and three the miners. This board held frequent ses sions during the last three years, settling local disputes in the anthracite region. The award of the strike com mission provided that, when it could not agree, a Federal judge in the Third judicial district should appoint an umpire, who should make a decision. Judge George Gray, president of the strike commission, made the appoint ments. During the first two years he selected Carroll D. Wright, ex-United States commissioner of labor, as the umpire, but during the last year Charles P. Neill, the present labor commissioner, acted as the arbiter. FURIOUS WITH FOREIGNERS. Chinese Excited by Picture of Magis trate Killed by Priest. Pekii., April 6. The Nanchang affair of February last, during which a Chi nese magistrate met death as the result of a dispute with French Catholic mis sionaries which caused a riot and the killing of a number of French and Brit ish missionaries, continues to inflame the Chinese. Trie native papers in the north of China this week print pictures of the magistrate's corpre, showing his wounds, with sensational articles writ ten in a style which appeals to the lower classes, exhorting the people not to forget the outrages and to prepare to defend themselves against foreign bru talities. The belief that a French priest mur dered the magistrate is universal and probably no other incident ever excited such widespread resentment against the missionaries. In many places the Catholic converts and the other Chinese are living on the basis of armed neu trality, and but for the presence of the troops stationed near the missions by the government's orders, the slightest friction would result in massacre. Disturbance In Coal Field. Philadelphia, April . The situa tion in the coal fields remains un changed. Occasional disturbances are reported from various sections, but they are regarded as inconsequential. As a result of the attacks made on the breakers of the Fernwood colliery, the Erie, company, which owns the land occupied by the mineworkers, han or dered them to vacate the property. The miners are said to have shot out nearly every window in the breaker. A detail of state police today arrested seven Italian laborers at Mocanaqua, near Wilkesbarre, who yesterday pre vented non-union men from operating the West End washery. They were sent to jail. Wants AIRailroads Appraised. Waahington, April 6. By unani mous vote today the National associa tion of Railway commissioners adopted the resolution of B. H. Meyer, of Wis consin, offered yesterday, declaring it to be the sense of the association that the congress of the United States should authorize and direct the Interstate Commerce commission, or some other department of the Federal government, to ascertain the inventory value of all railways in the United States, and to fix a valuation on the railway property of each state separately. Will Build Island for Fort. Washington, April 6. The creation of an artiflcal island in the middle of the entrance to Ch sapeake bay is pro posed by the joint board on coast de tente, as an absolute essential to the defense of the National capital and the cities of Baltimore, Norfolk, Newport News and even Richmond. The gov ernment will dump stone on the middle ground as foundation for a tort. GEM RESTAURANT Short Order House OPEN DAY AND NIGHT rkh, Oysters and Shell rkh. Your Patronage Is Solkiicd.
