AND NEW TOIitC'S EXECUTIVE HELD A IX)NO CONSULTATION ' MITCH ELL, is fair And anxious to ADJUST MATTERS. NEW YORK, Oct. 10. "What do you mean by politician? Iw.ant you and all of the operators to understand that il am Governor of New York, the chosen representative of seven million, and that I am here in -this matter solely m that capacKy, and to relieve, if possl- hif, the Intolerable situation. And, what is rnore, I Intend -to one every power at my command to do It." Governor O'Dell made this sta-tement Tto&ay to President Ber, -of the Read ing Road, ln the presence; of United Seates Senators Piatt, ; ef New York, and Quay arid lnrose, of Pennsyl vania. 1t was the "Elimination of ;a v heated interview In the office of Sen ator Piatt, ana the 'result of.tjie meet ing between Governor 0'I.MI and Pretd dent Baen liaar was not In the best Of humor, when, accompanied by E. It. Thomas, chairman of the board of di rectors of the Erie Railroad, he entered Senator Piatt's office. The conference began by a'statefnent made by Senator .. Penrose that the situation was, becom ing so serious that some solution must be found at once. " He suggested that the operators should -incline to some 'concessions toward -ft settlement. "If you mean by that," said President I'.-Acf, "that, we are to r&cognize the es '. lstPiice of labor vunlons I tell you right now that the operators will consider no such proposition." - J Governor O'Dell was on hi feet In an instant, white with excitement. He said: Are we. to 'understand that no kind of conciliatory proposition would receive attention at the hands of the operators?" . , i "I did not say that. answered Iiar. "Hut I do say -that we will not accept Mny poplltk'ni advice or, aliow the In terference of pojitlcians in this, our affairs," Then it was thai; Governor O'Dell ; made the statement., attributed to him at the beginning of (his article, .v. Prescient Itiier, evidently appreciat ing th he had gorre too far, bowed to Governor O'Dell and Midi ! "Governor, I begr ytjur pardon., No personal affect was Intended, and we still listen to any suggestion you may have to make; but again, I repeat, that w-el must refuse to recognise the untoh. represented by Mr. Mitchell." "I believe," said the Governor, "that your position from the public view is absolutely untenable. If coal operat ors, railroad men. and: other business men. can combine for mutual profit and ' protection, there fs no reason. Why mln Ing men should not," 1 "What Is the proposition?" asked Baer, coldly. . ! "Just this," said Governor OD11. "I cm not sure that the labor organisation, of.wJilch Mr.' Mitchell Is the had, de sires him to be. at .war" with th gen eral public. If the operators will con sent to give me &'tents rper ton increase I will personally present it to the min ers, and I b-lieve they will accept H. It Is . a fair priORltiun." . ,j "Docs this mean. Governor O'Deil, that w are to reeognbie the miners' union?" said Raer. . ; .j "It certainly does." answered Gover nor 0"lell quickly, "and there- Is "no reason why you should not." ! Haer and Thom wi rose tor go, Thomas remarking that the mnrtter would be presented to the other operators, and that an j early answer would be forth coming., Baer saldr Wlf are to meet a committee, of the Manufacturers' As sociation or Tuesday, and we may naT.e an Answer then." f ! After: theconference the Oovernor said: "The . coal operators may ist? J ponejjthis matter until Tuesday, hut-1 donf propose to postpone. . They are not acting fairly toward the people. 1 1 believe I shall find some -remedy." j 'About 6 o'clock John Mitchell called ' on the Governor and had a long con ference. "While thl was going on, :a dispatch, announcing that the operat ors refused to"conslder the terms offers ed by the Governor, was received. Gof er nor" O'Dell said: "Mr. Matchell was eminently fair and showed every dis position to 'adjust th erlous situa : tion." . , i : BIG YIELD OF GRAIN OREGON STANDS WELL AT , HEAD OF THE LIST.

Kindred bod ies to the parent organ la tion also brought these several conventions to' a close;.. : ; " The Union Veterans' Union had a de cidedly lively day, and the final result was a split in the, organisation. The first row was over the question of eligibility to. membership. A resolu tion was adopted that let down the bars too much to suit some of the delegates with a large membership in the order. This caused fll-feeling. Later friction lit the Union developed rapidly, in con sequence of the adoption by the com mittee of an order, which had been in vestigating the character and conduct of Commander-in-Chief Dyrenforth, of a report recommending the suspension of the Commandertin-Chief.

POOR WILL Bh IDLE GARMENT PRESSERST IN TENE MENTS ARE ALilOST OUT OP FUEL. NEW YORK, Ott. 10 If the miners strike continues a few days longer, says the Tribune, paralysis of the gar ment and cloak Industry, one of the greatest sources of employment on the East Side may be expected, . One of the most conservative members of the Garment Makers' Unions who has been for years associated with that industry is quoted to the effect that ten days more of the ; strike will .mean the throwing out of work of at least 25.000. This would b- caused by the inability of . the pressers to get any coal Or other fuel with which to heat; their Irons. A good- deal of the pressing is done in the tenements, women and children doing a considerable share of it, and the mar gin of profit is so small that the' cost of changing to another mode, of heat ing is declared to be out of the ques tion. -, " ' ' Inhabitants of this city are now feeling the first touch of cold weather.

Meyers, Commissioner of the State Bureau of Labor Statistics, of California, , giving warning regarding a woman. Mrs. N. J. Nelson, claiming to represent a con cern entitled the Monarch Book Co of Chicago. ' She claims to be employ ing solicitors, representing that after a short period of Held work, perhaps 50 days, no matter how inexperienced, the applicant will be appointed a "field manager" at an attractive salary. The" real feature of the matter is the Im mediate payment by the applicant of $7.50, or some other amount, as "guar antee of good faWn." The whole trans-' action is said to be a fraud, but the contract is Ingeniously worded so as to avoid legal entanglements. A woman answering this description and with just such a calling, was in Salem about one year ago and succeed- ed In ropijig In a good many victims of her graft, but her graft was expos ed In the Statesman at. that time, and it is not likely that she will return, but It is well that the people of Salem be warned, bo as not to be taken un awares and fall a prey to thia female fraud. ; , .
