PRESIDENT HAS REPORT Wright's Strike Findings in Roosevelt's Hands. Labor Commissioner Com pletes His Investigation. Situation at Sandy Run. Drifton Stockade. The report of Labor Commissioner Carroll D. Wright upon his investiga tion of the coal strike and its causes is in the hands of President Roosevelt. It reached Washington last night, and the president was too busy preparing for his trip to Boston to give it more than cursory consideration. 110 has taken the document with him to read and con sider it during his trip, and will prob ably hold a conference in Boston with Mr. Wright respecting It. The report Is a voluminous one, and goes thoroughly Into the cause which led to the conflict between the mine work ers and the operators, and it is under stood that it discusses at length the merits of the controversy. Beyond this it is impossible to judge, the character of the communication, except by the nature of the investigation which Mr. Wright was understood to be making in New York. It is not believed Mr. Wright has shown any way in which the president can invoke the law to bring about a settlement of the difliculty. It 19 understood the president will make public a statement of some kind respecting the report and the strike when ho has returned from Boston. KKTUKNKD TO WORK. Fifteen of the Susquehanna Coal Com pany's engineers, firemen and pump runners returned to work at the Nanti coke collieries yesterday. The men at a meeting on Monday night voted to re turn In a body and appointed a com mittee to wait upon Goneral Manager Williams to apprise him of that fact. A surprise was in store for the com mittee, which was that thoy were in formed that the men must make indi vidual applications for work. The ro sultof these individual applications was that the men who went out and remain ed passive were given work, while those who had becomo aggrossive wero turned down. The men who returned did so at the old rate of wages. President Mitchell says the return of the men at Nanticoke has little or no real significance. "The companies are offering these men big premiums to go back to work," ho said. "It is a temptation to some, and lioro and there a few men may re turn for a time. But wo arc dealing with 147,000 men, and individual cases of this kind do not count for much. The anthracite strikers are determined to win this light and there will be no breaks." SITUATION AT SANDY RUN. Sandy Run Local Union, of the United Mine Workers, lias decided to pay no attention to the alleged statement of M. S. Kommerer, in which the head of the firm operating Sandy Run colliery is re ported having said he did not sanction the granting of the steani-rnen's de mands. The union, a week ago, receiv ed positive assurance that these demands were conceded, and upon this assurance instructed the engineers, tiremnn and pumpmen to return to work. Inasmuch as the union or the steam men have not received any notice that the concessions have or are to bo with drawn, the employes have been notified 'to continue at work. The pumping of the water out of the mines is going on steadily, the men working on eight hour shifts. RKIIIND THE STOCKADE. To judgo from the murmurs which reach the outside world, everything is not sorene with those who have volun tarily Imprisoned themselves behind the stockade at Drifton. When the clerks and other employes took the places of striking firemen and pumpmen on June 2 they expected to bo relieved from their irksome labors in a short while. Coxe Bros, & Co., however, found them so willing to work that they are making little etforl to replace them. This is not pleasing to the "volunteers," and their woes are now beginning to leak through the barricade. With an unappreciativo corporation piling work on them on one side and the contempt of the public on tho other, the stockade gang is finding that "tho way of the transgressor is hard." "MOTHER" JONES ON TRIAL. The trial of "Mother" Jones and eleven others who are accused of violat ing an iujuuciiou of the Federal court FREELAND, PA., WEDNESDAY, JUNE 25, 1902. in regaid to interfering with working miners, was begun yesterday at Park ersburg, \V. Va. Most of the time was taken up by one witness, who testified to the language used by "Mother" Jones in a public speech. She advised miners to pay no attention to injunctions of courts. There are about thirty wit nesses and the trial will last all week. DKTECTIVK CONVICTKD. William Bauer, the detective, who was charged with criminal libel by John Fallon, national board member of the United Mine Workers, was convicted yesterday and recommended to the mercy of the court. Bauer furnUbed a newspaper with a statement purporting to come from Fallon saying that 500 miners were needed iri Blueiields, W. Va., where there was then a strike. Located the Bullets. Charles McCann, who was shot bv a Stanton mine deputy some time ago. underwent an X-ray examination to locate the bullet. The physicians found that the bullet lies under the right shoulder and is somewhat flattened. This is dun to the upward course it look after entering the flesh, which saved the boy's life. Unless the patient shows uneasiness the bullet will not be probed for, but will be left in the shoulder muscles. The Shorts boy, who was shot by a fanner near Ashley the day following the McCann shooting, was also put un der the X-rays. The bullet was found in the muscles of the back and will be probed for in a Both boys are improving nicely. Successful Applicants.

A Cranky Conductor. A respected resident of Froeland makes complaint to the Tribune of the actions of the conductor on trolley car No. 32, which arrived here at 7 o'clock last evening from llazleton. He says he boarded the car on the Diamond, in the latter city, and owing to the crowded condition of the car was compelled to stand on the rear platform. The con ductor, for some unexplained reason, took exceptions at Harleigh hill to the position occupied by the Freoland man, and from that point to Ebervale lost no opportunity to jostle him about and in sult him in various ways, notwithstand ing the fact that every possible effort was made by the passenger to keep out of the conductor's way. The actions and language of the trolley road employe are said by other occupants of the car to have been a dis grace to his uniform, and, were it not that the target of his abuse is a quiet, inoffensive man, serious trouble would undoubtedly have resulted. As this is not the first time this conductor has ill treated his passengers, his conduct should receive some attention from his superiors. Elected Officers. Froeland Council, No. 348, Jr. (). U. A.
