PHILADELPHIA. Oct. 9. President
Mitchell Issued his call yesterday for
the mflch-talked of miners' convention
to dismiss the operators' offer of a 10
per cent Increase in wages.
The convention will be held at Scran
ton and will open on Friday next. Rep
refutation In the convention will be on
tho basis of one delegate with one vote
for each 100 persons on strike.
It la the general expectation that fhe
decision of the convention will be to ac
cept the Increase and return to wofk.
Quietness prevailed throughout the
anthracite, regions yesterday, the call
for tho convention being generally ac
cepted as a signal for cessation of hos
tilities all around. There were many
expressions of satisfaction by miners
and operators and by merchant's and
others In tho mining section over the
prospects of an early settlement of'the
troubles.
Yesterday completed the third week
since the strike officially went Into
effect.
The miners will have parades and
massmeetln-s at Phamokln today and
nt Scranton tomorrow. President
Mitchell will be In attendance and U
expected to speak at both places.
READY FORCONVENTION.
Snrnlilon Now HeoimiM Headquarter of
I'nlleil Mine Worker.
SORANTON, Pa., Oct. . Music Hall,
a theater adjoining the district head
quarters, and capable of seating 1.000
people, has been secured for Friday's
convention of the United Mine Work
ers. The national headquarters will be
at the St. Charles hotel, a block and a
half away.
President Mitchell and his staff will
come here tonight or early Wednesday
morning end the probability Is that the
headquarters will be maintained In this
cltv until the strike Is over, as this Is
the metropolis of the anthracite region.
TJie big demonstration of tomorrow
afternoon being concluifed, the work of
arranging the preliminaries of the con
vention will be attacked. It is gener
ally believed here that a complete pro
gram will be mapped out at a cenfer
rnce on Thursday and that this pro
pram will be followed at the convention
the following day.
The general feeling here Is that the
10 per ri-nt offer will b accepted as it
stands nr.d that th- matter of substi
tuting a fixed scale for a sliding scale
In the lower districts will be left to the
affected miners themselves to settle
when tin y come to treat with their re
spective employers un.vr the provision
of the offer guaranteeing adjustment
of any grievances the employes may
present. Tho matter of yearly confer
ences to fix a new scale may also be
dealt with in the same manner, each set
of employes sending a committee to
their employer and then reporting back
to a convention conducted under the
auspices of the I'nlted Mine Workers.

This would beat out the Plttsburgs,
even though they captured all of their

days of gambling and the dance halls
In the Yukon capital are over. The
officials in the north of Canada, act
ing upon instructions from adminis
tration at Ottawa, have decided that
gambling and kindred evils must be
closed down at once.
A few weeks ago publicity was given
to a letter of Instruction sent by Min
ister Sifton from Ottawa, In whioh he
suggests that at once the gambling
places be closed. It was statd at that
time that Commissioner Ogllvle and
M;1 V" ' won '. -i-t act on the sug
gestion until next June, so as net to
cause hardship among the people who
had money Invested therein. But tilts
decision was evidently, reconsidered for
passengers who arrived here by the
Dolphin say that the g-nl houses
were all closed the week be.r !st ai'.d
dance halls have also c::v.l- un.Ur tho
ban.

And was made about 200 miles up the
river and there has been a big stam
pede to the district lately.
Another find has been made by C.
Millar on Glacier creek. James Duna
muir. head of the firm of R. Dunsmulr
& Sons, coal mine owners, and premier
of the province of British Columbia, Is
the victim of a peculiar strike. During
the provincial campalen last April. In
compliance with the strong antl-Mon-gollan
sentiment prevailing In British
Columbia, Dunsmulr discharged all the
Chinese who had been working In his
mines on Vancouver Island, and sent
to Scotland for 400 Scotch miners. Half
of these arrived last week, and soon af
ter a considerable proportion of them
struck, and started off toward the Unit
ed States boundary line. All the ex
penses of their transportation hither
from Scotland were borne by Dunsmulr.
