TRYING TO

MITCHELL AND DISTRICT PRESI
DENTS IN NEW YORK.
They Went Early Saturday Morning,
but at Mine Headquarters Here It
Was Stated Even Yesterday That
the Whereabouts of tho National
and District Presidents Was Un
knownThe Mine Workers' Offi
cials Have Not Yet Had an Oppor

UliMl sern at his hotel I'lrahhnt Ultclult
mid that nothing Lad let been done.
Mr. Mitchell nnd Dlsttlet 1'reildenla
Xlrhollp, Fa hey und Duffy went to
Xew York eaily Hntuiday morning,
but that fnet was carefully concealed
b.v everyone connected with headuuar-
teiH. Kven ye.Htei(lay Organizer Ditch
er and Seoretarj' Dempsey protected
that they illrl not know where the four
preslilentH nre or what they nre doing.
A fact which leads one to tho belief
that President Mitchell Intend.s stay
ing In New York for a few daj'.t, or at
leant to the deduction that lome meet
ing ot Importance It scheduled, Is tlie
fact that MIhm MoirK ltli pilvate nee
tetarj. left for the metropolis by the
;t :n o'clock train yesterday afternoon
via the Del.iw.ue, J.aekaw.uin.t and
Wests tu tallroad.

Nantltoke yesterday tevealed the fact
that hr itas out of the city, but wheie,
his family said, they were unable to
say.
Pie-ddeul Mitchell steadtuitly le
fused. before leaving the city. Io site
out any Information U'KHidlnir thee
answeis jecelved, bill, as Mtaterl In
Saturday's Tribune, the fact t.is ob
vious that the news conveyed lu them
wa ot a (llsappoliillng natute. It Is a
known f.ut that the Pennsylvania
Kailro.'id compnnv meiely ackiKittl
erlged the receipt of the .Mine Woikcis'
lettets as a matter of t-outtcsy. but de
( lined to meet In conference with iii-i-ons
not In their employ. Any gtlev
ances entei t.ilned bv their men would,
howevei, at all times be given piompt
attention.
ABOl'T Till: t'ONriMllONCK.
TliPie have been no rew dewlop
nients In the matter of the heads ot
the boards of trade going to New
YoiU, but Seertaiy D. 11. Atherton, of
the local board, yestenlnv ib-daied
that no action was likely to be taken
today, owing to the letuin of Ml Mor
gan to New Yoil;, No communication
lias been as yet held with the other
two titles lcgatdlns the matter.
Nothing has been done j-o far In con
nection with calling meetings of the
(lltilct oi national boards, but In all
probability the joint .session of the
eighteen men lcpieaentlng the thiee
districts will be held about the middle
of this week at Wilkes-Dane
Predeilck Dlleber Is the onlt na
tional board member now In the dtv,
and It Is possible that definite action
may be taken by the national and dls
tiiet piesldents and district boaul
membets without Its being thought
necessai)- to call the national board on
here. The outlook continues rather
gloomy. Dlleber, one of the most out
spoken ot all the mine workeis' lead
ers, openly ndvooates a strike, unless
a conference is called, and yesterday
blullly und confidently remniked:
"There will be a htilkc Apill 1, unless
a. conferenco can be ananged between
operatois and the mine workeis' ofll
cials "
ETERNATpUNisHMENT.
Monsignor Garvey Spoke About It
in His Set mon in St. Petei's
Cathedral Last Night.
Monslcnoi' 1-- A Gatvey. of Plttston,
vicar general of the diocese of Scian
ton, pleached nn eloquent nnd able ser
mon last night nt St. Peter's c.uhe
dial, outlining the teaching of the
Catholic chinch legaullng eternal
damnation.
The doctrine of the chuuh. he said,
as upheld by council after council, is
that there Is a literal hell and that the
.souls ot all pei sons dying In n state of
sin and unrepentant aie doomed to
evei lusting consignment to Its tor
ments "Suiely." said he, "that soul which
ill life has been united with .leus
f'htlst bv the ties of Ills pieclous blood
will suffer tertlble agonies lu hell when
nil these tics are indely Inoken asunder
nnd when theie will be no hope of ever
again being united with Ood
"flioat as Is the loss of (Jod. that Is
not the only suffeilng which tho
damned soul must buffer lu hell. Tho
Scriptures tell us that theie Is in that
awful abode a teul cotpoieal and con
suming the, not a flie lu the figurative
sense AVe ate told In the New Testa
nieut that upon the last da tin 1st will
bay unto the wicked: 'Depart, ye
cutsed, Into the everlasting lite pu
pared for the devil and his angels ' "
Tho eetiastlng remembinnce of the
sins committed on earth, the temeiu
brauee of "what might hate been," tho
speaker said, Is another of the awful
sufferings of the damned
"We can fancy," Mild he, "the wall
Ing of the lost soul. 'Oh, In (descent
pleasures! oh. evanescent Jojs!' we can
hear It cry, 'by what subtle power do
you diaw your votatles on to destine
Hon.' "Dante has wiltlen that over tho
gate of hell ate written tho words, 'All
hope abandon, ye who enter here'
That Is the gieatcst of all the torments
of the place, the loss of hopehope
which Is biead for the liungrj'. test for
tho weary, medicine for the sick and
llfo for tho dying. No man heie on
earth knows despair as the souls In
hell know It. The tertlble thought of
an ctcinlty of torment leaves no cs-
tlge of hope. It Is n despnlr which can
he summed up In two words ever,
never. Kver to live and never to die."
Monsignor Harvey urged those pres
ent to weigh, ns on n scales, the pleas
utes ot fIii and the punishment In
clined by their Indulgence, and then to
consider thoughtfully whether It Is
wise to Incur so great a penalty for so
trilling n thing.
"Lot tin always walk lu the fear of
the. Lord." said he. In oouclwrlon. "Let
ui work out our salvation a.i St. Paul
advUeg, lu fear and trembling."
STRIKEsKntJ STRIKERS.
Rev. James McLeod, D. D., Referred
to Thorn in Sermon in First Pres-
byterian Church Last Night.
Itev. .InmcH McLeod, D. D., lost night
delhered mi Inlet cstlng address at
the Klrst Piosbytcrlan chuich on the
subject of "Stiikci and Strikers." In
the course of his ternaries he declared
that If both sides would apply the
doldon title In the adjustment of the
dlflicultloH a fetllement could be nr
rlved at amicable to both parties, and
without any cessation of woik at the
mines. Continuing, he said.
"Wealth Is accumulating lu this coun
tiy and J nm glad of It, When -wealthy
men nnd totnen give hundteds of
thousands to endow colleges, build
churches and nccompllsh other noble
works, and when one man who came
to this country gives nwaj' ten mill
ions In two weeks to put good liter
ature Into tho reach of uny poor man,
when such things' are done, I say It Is
not wise nor Ciutstlan to condemn
such rich men nnd such riches
"I think those who are desirous of
cieatlng a Mi Ike In these teglons
should study that passage of Serlp
tuies which says. 'It Is hard to kick
against the pilcks.' They ennuld look
over the hlstoty of past strikes and
i (-member that not one in twenty has
been of benellt to the strikers
"And theie has neer been a slilke
won except when Its cause was so JusL
that 11 was endotsed by an enlight
ened public opinion. Hut to the best of
my knowledge the motive which would
actuate n present stilkc Is as small a
piece of business as ever happened. It
Is so devoid of leason as to be almost
Inhuman.
"if woik Is stopped for such paltty
leasoiiH. the miners will me their ac
tion und sulfer for It I hope they will
lake counsel and not nl the beck nnd
call of one man hi lug poverty on them
cehes und theli families."
THE THEFT OF JEWELRY.
"Jim" Collins and "Tony" Fauell
Aie in Jail Chaiged with
the Offense.
A (ti.iutltj of Jeweh.v was stolen
from the stoie of i: W. Squleis, of
Peekvlllo. last Thutsilay morning b.v
"Jim" Collins and "Tony" Farrell, of
that place Hoth men iter1 ariested
and ate now In the county Jail.
Collins and f 'art oil entered the Moio
on the morning In question at about
8 o'clock, nnd Inquired of .Mrs. Squiers,
who caiuc to wait upon them. If there
was any work about the plate she
could give them io do. She leplled
that there was not and let lied Into
her living npattmciits lu the icai of
tlf store, thinking tint t the men would
