igES1
EVE OF THE
CONVENTION
(Concluded from t'flRC 1.1
favor accepting the offer would result
In the convention taking the operator'
proposition by the heel, wiping the
floor with It, Jumping all over It. add
tossing It Ignomlnously Into the gutter.
This having been accomplished, Mr.
Mitchell, It Is pointed out by the ad
herents of view No. 3, would proceed
to Issue nn ultimatum containing a
whole lot of demands, and then sny to
the operators, as they are now saving
to him: "It's up to you."
All this, however, Is pure conjecture.
Not even a hint has come officially of
what tho convention Is llltelv to do,
Tho newspaper men have besought
President Mitchell for several days
past to make a statement of what the
probable outcome would be, but he re
fuses to discuss the question at all.
Yesterday he gave out the following
prepnred statement, In response to it
general request from the newspaper
men:
The miner' convention tomorrow will lie one
of the most reui.irk.ihlr luhor meetings held In
the history of roal mlnlmr; for the flrnt time In
ocr thirty years reprcentatlve of nil collieries
will meet In convention tn dl.eus matters ol
il.il Intercut to them. The proposition suli
lultled liy the operators to ndnnce their w.iires
tin per cent, will, of enuise, he the paramount
question. The same calm, lomenatlve conduct
of Hid men ilnring the strike will characterlre
their actions tomorrow. Th anthracite miners
as u result of their lomr je.iis of Imnhhlp, have
linmne thoughtful and studious, and have n
thoiouiili knowledge of the inlnhiR Indus! ly In
all Its phases, II will uudmihlcdly he llielr de
she io legislate In the Inltresl of the miners
of elery section of Hie legion. The convention
will he free fio'ii passion or rveitenieiil, and the
miners will demonstMli' to the public that they
ale capable of doing business ns prudent husl
ls men.
Does Not Say Much.
There are some things In the state
ment that are seemingly significant,
but they are not broad enough to war
rant any very strong Inference". It l,
In fact, about the only one of the many
statements Issued by Mr. Mitchell
which does not say something strong.
His extreme cautiousness Is explained
by close approach of the convention, in
which he says ho will not Interfeio.
Many ot the 700 delegates expected to
be in the convention arrived yesterday
and last nlcht and weie looked after
by a committee of local men, under the
direction of District President T. D.
Nichols. Accommodations at very re.i
sonable figures were secured for ion
men at the central city hotels. One
proprietor made a rate of seventy cents
a day for board and lodging.
The convention will open at 10 o'clock
this morning In Music hall. Ptesldent
Mitchell will be its chairman and will
make an opening speech, In v hlch hn
will fully and plainly set forth the
present situation. None but delegates
will be admitted.
AV. D. Ryan, secretary-treasurer of
District No. 12, embracing the whole
Illinois coal region, arrived yesterday
afternoon and registered at the St.
Charles, lie stated to a Tribune re
porter that his dlstiict union has $100.
000 in Its treasury, and that $2i",0,00u of
that Is Immediately available for the
use of the Pennsylvania miners. No
official request for aid has come to his
union yet, but when it comes, he says,
It will be generously responded to. He
came here only as a visitor, lie sulci,
but would go Into the convention to
extend n greeting from the Illinois
miners, and to tell the Pennsylvania
miners that their Illinois brethren are
prepared to show their sympathy In a
very substantial way.
Secretary-Treasurer Wilson, ot the
national organization, is also expected
to attend the convention.
Mitchell Interviewed.
A Tribune reporter Interviewed
President Mitchell last night as to his
views on the advisability of accepting
the ten per cent, offer, but It was u
fruitless task.
Mr. Mitchell has said all along that
he would not decide the question for
the miners; that they would be left
to decide It for themselves. He has
not In any way ever Intimated wheth
er the acceptance or rejection of the
offer would be the more pleasing to
him and the other national ofllcers ot
the union. It was pointed out to Mr.
Mitchell that the miners would very
much like to know how he felt about
the matter, but further than smiling
his concurrence in tills proposition, he
was dumb.
"To what extent will you participate
in the convention?" was united Mr.
Mitchell.
"I will make an address at the open
ing outlining the occasion for calling
the convention and setting forth the
question that the delegates will be
called upon to decide. I will not ad
vise them ns to what conclusion they
should reach, but I will Indicate to
'jfc-'m my views on how they should
jssiceed to reach a conclusion,"
The convention may be open, Mr.
Mitchell said, but the chances are that
before the discussions begin tho dele
gates will vote to go into executive
session. As much of the proceedings
of the executive session as Is deemed
expedient to make public will bo given
out by a press committee. Mr,
Mitchell's address will bo given out for
publication. Ho spent a goodly part of
last night framing It,
Piesldent Mitchell visited the district
headquarters yesterday morning, and
last night attended a reception given
by the Kilts, of which organization he
is a member. The remainder of tho
day was spent In attending to Ills eor
lespondence and oondvrmT t'h other
ofllcer.s of the union on tlm plans for
the convention.

City Solicitor A. A. Vosburg, recognized as one of the leaders of
tho Lackawanna bar, had the following to say yesterday when asked
by a Tribune man to state a few of his reasons for desiring the re
election of President McKinley:
"Results, not theories, are what we all look for. Free trade is a
beautiful theory, but experience has demonstrated that good re
sults, in a country like the United States, can only be obtained by a
protective tariff. This issue stands, as it always has stood, as one of
the paramount issues of the campaign; and no man in America stands
more flnnly for a protective tariff for the protection of the American
workingman than President McKinley.
"Free silver has an alluring sound, as it carries with it the sug
gestion of a gratuitous distribution of the coin of the realm; but every
leasonable man knows that the national credit could not be main
tained, 3hould we issue a coin worth only fifty cents on the dollar
of its intrinsic value.
"President McKinley stands for an honest dollar, and nn unim
paired national credit. Thus it has ever been.
"No man can point to a successful era in the history of this na
tion when it was dominated by the Democratic party.
"President McKinley should be re-elected, then, by reason of
the principles which he represents; and also on account of the mas
terly manner in vhich he carries these principles into effect.
"What has Democracy, or Bryanism, as it should now be de
nominated, to offer against this record?
"Nothing but the cry of imperialism. Asked to define it, they beg
the question; and why? Because imperialism, as the word is gen
erally defined, can have no possible existence in a nation like this,
"The only thing in favor of the word, as a party issue is, that it
is a long word, a high sounding term, and a meaningless expression
as applied to American institutions. These qualities appeal to Bry
anism, but not to the inteligent people of America.
"Elect President McKinley and you have protection, sound money,
national expansion, and continued prosperity. What more do the
people want?"

thero were some of the players In tho
open tournament who wore not as
hnppy at nightfall as they could have
wlshedv The picturesque beauty ot the
vicinity was never more fully appar
ent and there was a great outbreak of
kodaks and enmeras In the hands ot
experienced manipulators and others,
who suddenly evinced a powerful long
ing to snap at everything In sight.
Qolfets, In the throes ot a delicate ap
proach shot, were held up and warned
to "stand Just no, please that's such a
pretty pose."

eral photos yesterday of pretty tennis
players and other Interesting groups.

ARGUMENTS ABOUT
TURNPIKE CHARTER
Made Before Secretary of the Com
monwealth by City Solicitor Vos
burg and Attorney Watson.
City Solicitor Vosburg returned yes
terday from Harrlsburg, where he rep
resented the city's Interests In the
hearing before Secretary of the Com
monwealth Driest on the city's protest
against the Issuing of ti. charter to the
Ablngton Boulevard company.
The secretary took the matter under
advisement. He was not sure of his
authority to deal with the question of
law raised by Mr. Vosburg, but said he
would look into the mutter.
If he should decide that he has no
authority to deal with the question of
law and should ignore the issue of fact
raised by Mr. Vosburg that the appli
cation for a charter was made In bad
faith, he will undoubtedly grant tho
charter. The city could then apply to
the attorney general for a writ of quo
warranto to show cause why tho char
ter could not be revoked and the .ques
tion of law could then be taken up.
This corresponds to the method
adopted by the courts of this county
when an appeal is filed too lata. A
rule Is then granted to show cause why
It should not be stricken from the rec
ords. A protest against the applica
tion of the Connell Park and Soeed
way Street Railway company was filed
by the Scranton Railway company, but
as a question ot law was raised, the
charter was granted and a writ of quo
warranto granted.
Attorney W. W. Watson, who ap
pealed for the applicants, argued that
that portion of the turnpike lying with
in the city limits, and known as West
Market street, Is not in reality a street
of the city but belongs to the turnpike
company. Therefore, he contended, Mr.
Vosburg's argument that no corpora
tion had the right to Interfere with the
streets of the city was futile.
Mr. Vosburg, In reply, pointed out
that the city pays for an electric light
service on the street: that the city
built a bridge, at an expense of $2,000,
across Leach's creek, and that It is
regularly patrolled by the policemen of
the city.
Attorney Watson presented affidavits
from the township authorities ot South
Ablngton township, stating that they
would be unable to take care ot the
road, In case It was condemned, on ac
count of the lack of finances. He con
tended that where turnpike roads have
been condemned In the past they have
been allowed to run without repairing
for years. He claimed that the major
ity of the farmers using the road were
against Its condemnation.
