Washington. Oct. C The ceremonies
neldcnt to the beginning of the thlrty
ilxth annual encampment of the Grand
Army of the Hepuhllc which commenc
ed here today wore varied In character
and mostly only seiul-olTlclul. The only
formal proceeding uf the day was the
dedication of Camp Hoosevelt, the tent
city on the White house ground?, which
will he the headquarters of the several
corps organizations during- the week.
The ceremonies there consisted uf a
number of addresses by men of nation
al reputation, the chief speech being
delivered by Secretary Hay. For the
rest, the old soldiers' busied themselves
hugely In renewing the acquaintances
of forty years ago and in manifesting
their appreciation of the welcome ox
tended by the capital city. Of this
welcome, they found generous evidence
on every hand. The events of the day
outside the dedication ceremonies at
Camp Hoosevelt included a fine regatta
on the Potomac, an attractive automo
bile parade, an interesting procession
by the lied Men of this city and
neighboring cities, and camp tires In
the evening. Commander-in-Chief Tor
rance and his staff kept open house nil
day at the F.bbltt house and received
many hundreds of callers.
Many train loads of people have ar
rived during the day, and it Is now
quite certain that anticipation of an
exceptionally large attendance will be
realized.
A Centre of Interest.
A centre of Interest during the day was
the grounds south of the white house.
There, on the Ellipse under the shadow
of the "Washington monument are lo
cated tents which are to be used as
the headquarters of the different corps
and other divisions whose members
constitute the Grand Army. Among
the organizations thus represented are
the Army of the Potomac, the Army of
the James, the Army of the Cumber
land and the Army of the Tennessee.
All there tents were occupied during
the day, and all proved powerful mag
nets to the veterans. There were 0111
c'"is on hand In each tent to answer
questions, and many Interesting meet
ings tools place. The postotllcc and the
hospital tents also were taken posses
sion of during the day. as weie most of
the tents which are to be used as free
sleeping quarters. After today the
camp will be under guard as in war
times.
A spectacular street exhibition was
given nt II o'clock by the Improved
Order of lied Men. They marched
down Pennsylvania avenue from the
cupltol to the white house, about -t.'O
strong. The organizations participat
ing were the nine tribes of the order
in Washington. Their ranks were aug
mented by the addition of u number of
visitors from neighboring states. Fred
W K.ihlirt acted as marshal and there
were several Hunts upon which braves
disported themselves for the amuse
ment of tlif multitude. The members
were in full uniforms.
The Kansas delegation, which Is
quartered at an uptown hotel, Is at
tractlng a great deal of attention. The
numbers e.inio prepared not only to
participate In the festivities of the en
campment, hut to furnish the people
Willi an object lesson of what thev
can do in the Hue of agriculture. They
brought with them a large exhibit of
pumpkins, of enormous size, apples, po
tatoes, corn and wheat. The sidewalk
surrounding the hotel has been com
pletely taken up with the dlsplay.whlle
suspended from ropes fastened to tree
boxes are bunches of ears uf corn, The
minllower also Is much hi evidence,
At night the veterans ami their
friends wero entertained by an exhibi
tion of fireworks on the Washington
monument grounds. The principal
iscene represented was the rescue of the
diplomatic legations at I'ekln In which
Sou persons were engaged. The attend
mice numbered thousands and tint dif
ferent features of the spectacle were
enthusiastically received.
Camp Hoosevelt.
Camp Hoosevelt, which Is to ho the
headquarters of the various unny corps
represented here during the week of
the Grand Army encampment, was
formally dedicated nt 4.30 o'clock this
afternoon. The camp is on the White
lot Just west of the white house uml
between that building and the Wash
button monument. It is a beautiful
sward, located near the heart of the
city and also Is otherwise adapted to
the purpose to which it Is to he put.
The dedication ceremonies were nre-
l -liV r bv the Hon. D. H. Warner.
chairman of t citizens' committee
of the District Columbia, and were
largely attended " A the veterans and
by citizens of nshtngton, Including
both ladles and gentlemen. The cere
monies took place on the Improvised
platform.
The proceeding's were begun prompt
ly at the time speellled. Colonel John
McKlroy, chairman of the reunion com
mittee, called the meeting to order and
summoned Mr. Warner to the .stand.
After brief Invocation by the Uev. W.
G. Davenport, Dr. Warner Introduced
the Hon. Henry B. F. MnoFariand, one
of the district commissioners. Heforo
doing so, however, Mr. Warner spoke a
few words of welcome of his own. Re
ferring to the beautiful weather, he
said that the genial sunshine w-ns typi
cal of the hospitality extended to the
old soldiers by the people of the na
tional capital.
Mr. MncFarland's Address.
Mr. MaeFarlaiid spoke for the declara
tion that Washington is the national
capital only because "of what was done
by that Grand Army of the Republic
which you represent," and after paying
a high tribute to the members of the
Grand Army, both as soldiers and citi
zens, said:
We of the younger generation, who
were born while you were lighting, know
war only from that more recent war for
humanity, for freedom and for opportun
ity, which under the direction of Presi
dent Mc Kin ley, hern, aalnt and iiiiirtyr,
was won in fewer days thun you fought
months. That smaller war showed that
we still had in the full vigor the noliln
spirit of your war that spirit typified by
our present president, whose name this
camp Is most appropriately to hem.
We, who have come up since the civil
war would learn of you and of tin- states
men and soldiers, your comrades who nru
here In spirit, lessons which we need
for the twentieth century. We would
catch the spirit of absolute devotion
which gave up everything fur the repub
lic, and counted life not dear. We would
follow the example of those who found
Joy in sacillice and their highest reward
in the sweet, stern face of their country,
us she smiled on them Vie they died.
Oars is a most difficult task. It Is
easier to die than to live for our coun
try, and we need a double measure of
your spirit for the days which seem so
milierolc. anil yet demand much heroism.
Fortunately, we have the example of you
veterans, in pence, as well as In war.
Vou have shown for forty years that you
we're citizeti-sbldlers and that you nru
soldier citizens. The victories of peace
arc yours as well as the victories uf war.
The high purpose, the self-control, the
patient endeavor, the, stalwart courage
which are as necessary to good citizen
ship as to good soldiership, appear In
your present example. You remind us
that all times are heroic, because all
times are full of hcroWm. and that the
unrecognized and imlinnored heroes nt
every day standing in their places and
doing their duty faithfully, are keeping
the ranks steady, and advancing the gen
eral march.
Mr. MacFarland took his seat in the
midst of a generous round of applause,
which was renewed and redoubled when
the Hon. John Iluy, secretary of stnte.
rose to speak for the president. Mr.
Hay read his speech from manuscript,
but he spoke su distinctly that his
words were plainly audible to all the
vast number present. He was ap
plauded at frequent Intervals as he
proceeded.
Mr. Hay's Address.
Ills address was as follows:
Comrades of the Great Army
In the name of the president, and In his
stead, I bid you welcome to Washing
ton, r need nut say that on every Inch
or American soil, wherever that starry
banner wave., you aie at home, and need
no formal words of welcome. Hut espec
ially In this capital city of the republic
you fought to preserve, yon are the chil
dren of the house; the doors are always
open to you. Wherever you turn, you a'rn
leminded of the bl-tory of which you aio
a pari. From the windows of that while
house the eyes of many comrade have
looked upon tills Held whoe names be
long' to the ages Lincoln, Grant, Hayes,
Garfield, McKluley and Unn-eveH. u the
beautiful squares other comrades salute
you from bronze horses of the monu

the heights of Arlington show the white
tents of Fame's eternal camping ground,

.bivouac of yours.tho unequalled obelisk uf
Washington towers to the clouds thu
liftlest structure ever reared by men In
memory of the loftiest character in hu
man history.
A peculiar Interest attends this gather
lug. Never ngaln shall all of us meet III
a camp like till-. Not often shall the
youngest and stronged of us come to
gether to renew our memories of the past
and our vows of eternal devotion to ilio
cau-e to which, In those distant days,
wo sworn allegiance. Thirty-seven years

heails for Abraham Lincoln, saw tint
great army which he loved pass before the

keeping step to the rhythm of drums uml
trumpets, which had sounded Hie onset
111 a hundred battle,. The hauliers blew
gaily out what was left of them: they
were stained with the weather of long
inarches; they were splendid In the rags
and lutteis uf glorious victories. There
was not much of pomp or state about
that solemn march. Hut the men in Hie
street that day-many of whom I have
the honor of seeing before me afforded
their own country, and the rest of the
world, u lesson which shall never be for
gotten, though ll tremendous Import was
not Immediately perceived. In fact, many
Inferences were drawn at the moment
which the lapse of a few mouths found
altogether false. One trained observer of
events In the Old World said: "These
splendid fellows will give you trouble; It
Is too line a torce to lie disbanded easily."

past, unaware thai w wero making new

n.v Exclusive Wire from The Associated I'rcnt.
Wilkes-Barre, Oct. C President John
Mitchell, of the United Mine Workers
of America, slipped out of town before
dawn this morning for Philadelphia,
where ho met Carroll D. Wright, Uni
ted States commissioner of labor, who
Is President Jtoosevelt's personal rep
resentative on matters pertaining to
the anthracite coal strike. Mr. Mitch
ell returned here tonight unaccompan
ied and unannounced, and made the
simple statement that ho had met the
labor commissioner. lie refused abso
lutely to discuss his visit to Philadel
phia, declined to say where in Philadel
phia he met Mr. Wright or what passed
between them. Subsequently he In
'formed a representative of the Associ
ated Press that he saw other gentlemen
while there, but declined to disclose
their Identity.
On the strength that Mr. Wright Is
close to President Hoosevelt there Is a
general Impression here that the com
missioner carried a message from the
chief executive to Mr. .Mitchell. A
rumor which cannot be verified Is in
circulation here tonight that President
Hoosevelt has appealed to Mr. Mitchell
to end the strike in the Interest of hu
mnnltv. lnteiest In Mr, Mitchell's mysterious
trip was intense all day and evening
about headquarters. All the local dis
trict leaders called and scores of mine
workers were also in evidence. No one
seemed to know anything, and all wero
of the belief that some sort of a move
Is contemplated. Immediately upon the
arrival of the strike leader, he was be
sieged, but he refused to see any one
until after he had his supper. He
granted the newspaper correspondents
a brief Interview, simply telling them
be mot Mr. Wright, and then he ami
the district presidents went Into con
ference. Mitchell's Statement.
The conference between Mr. Mitchell
and his district presidents continued
until 11.15 p. m., and at 11.30 o'clock,
five minutes before the national presi
dent left for Buffalo, he gave to the
press tho following statement, ' which
was hurriedly prepared after he re
turned from Philadelphia tonight:
WilUes-Harro. Ph., Oct, li, ISUL'. r
To district secretaries and all mine
workers In the anthracite. Held:
You have, no doubt, read in the dally
papers tlie proceedings of the confereucu
at the white house last Friday hi which
your ofllcers proposed an Immediate le
sumptloii of work If the operators would
agree with us lo refer the questions at
issue In the strike lo tin- decision of thu
president of the I'nlted States and a tri
bunal named by him. You have noted
the reply of the presidents of the coal
carrying roads, in which they responded
to our overtures by denouncing your
union. Its members and ofllcers lu thu
most vehement and malicious manner
possible. They also declared that a large
majority of the sti liters would return to
work it given military protection, and
they demanded that tho president semi
I'nlted States tioops to tho coal fields.
In order to demonstrate to the people
of our country that the statements uf thu
operators am unfounded and that thu
mine workers are law abiding citizens,
the officers of all local unions .should
call nias.i me 'lings uf all nieii on strlko,
union and non-union, such meetings to bu
held hi each mining town at " o'clock
Wednesday afternoon, October S, Wu
know that the mine workeis urn not re.
strained from going to work by fuir uf

the statements of Clin operators to bo un
tine. We also ndvlso that acts of lawlessness
by the rnal and iron police and by strik
ers be denounced and tho service of mem
bers of the union tendered the local au
thorities to peserve law and order.
Great cam should be exercised that
those on strike do not permit theinselved
to be provoked by the coal and lion po
lice Into the com mission of overt acts.

The news of the calling out of the en
tire sttttu guard caused a mild sensation
among those gathered nt strlko head
quarters, but apparently the least per
turbed wero President Mitchell and the
throe district presidents. There wns a
crowd In the lobby of tho Hart hotel,

In hand, he wtis nsked for an expression
on the notion of tlovcrnor Stone. He
:it rirst declined, hut a moment later, us
ho pushed his way through tho throng,
he exclaimed:
"If they call all the troops out In tho
United States it won't make the men go
to work."
President Nlcholls said:
"Nothing has arisen to warrant Hie
calling out of more trops, but It they
are not used for any unlawful purpose,
their presence In the coal ileitis cannot
do us any harm."
District President Duffy reinnrked:
"The troops are not needed. I pro
tested to Governor Stono when thoy
were first ordered Into my district, and
1 am still of the same mind."
President Fnhy said:
"I do not see the necessity for calling
nut more troops, unless.lt be that ot
bolstering; up the operators' side of the
struggle.
The news of the call for all of the
troops was received so late that no
opinion could be had from any of the
officials of the coal companies living In
this vicinity.
President Mitchell, accompanied by
the three district presidents left for
IJuffalo at ll.H.-i p. in., over the Lehigh
Valley railroad. There they will meet
n committee of the National Associa
tion of Manufacturers, who wish to de
vise some plan for bringing the great
struggle to an end. At Buffalo, the

In coal mines In Pennsylvania, of which
Hie Philadelphia and Beading company

of making a petition to the courts for

desire to work, and their families, leceive ample military protection. He
will protect all trains and other property from unlawful interference,
nnd will arrest all persons engaging in acts of violence and intimidation,
nnd hold them under guard until their release will not endanger the pub
lic peace; will see that threats, intimidations, assaults and nil acts of
violence cease at once. The public peace and good order will be pre
served upon all occasions and throughout the several counties, nnd ne
interference whatever will be permitted with officers and men in the dis
charge of their duties under this order. The -dignity and authority of the
state must be maintained and her power to suppress all lawlessness
within her borders be asserted. By order of
