SOAL OPERATORS STATEMENT.
President Willeox Glves Reasons Fee
Refusing Miners’ Ineveanse.
NEW YORK, May 2 — Hepreaeats-
tives of the coal operators in this city
made public a statement by David
Willcox, president of the Delaware snd
Hudson company, iu reply to a recent
statement of President John Mitchell
of the United Mine Workers,
In it Mr. Willcox quoted Mr. Mitah-
ell’s remark at the last miners’ conven
tion at Indianapolis to the effect that
“so loug as 1 am ceunected with the
miners’ organization and so long as
they give to me and to my advice the
same confidence, the same respect that
year by year they have, if market con-
ditions justify us, we shall ask for
more and more wages.” Commenting
on it Mr. Willcox sald:
“What is the value of negotiation er
even arbitration If It Is never to be re
garded as final, but merely as a basis
for incessant further demands Y”’
Mr. Willcox also states as follows:
“The total cost of production since
the anthracite coal commission's award
bas Icereased 40 cents per ton and has
substantially consunied the increase in
price. Therefore there has been no ia-
crease in profit of the business upen
which could be based auy claim for in-
creased wages. The prosperity of the
anthracite producers upon which so
much stress bas been laid ls not doe to
the fast that their profits upon each
ton of ceal are any greater. It Is
caused by the fact that they have sold
more coal and, In the case of the trans-
portatien companies, that their miscel-
laneous business, which is much larger
than their ¢eal business, bas been no
tive i= harmony with general oendi-
tioms.™
In refersace to the claim of the min-
ers that there should be an increase of
wages because of the greater cost eof
living, Mr. Willoox says:
*The cost of living of a family ad-
vanced frown 1000 until 1004 $30.01, but
the wages of the head of the familly
advanced §12888 From 1002 until
1004 the cost of living advanced $3550
and the wages of the head of the fam-
{ly advanced $76.84. Bince 1804 the
cost of living bas decreased $5.10,
while there has been no change in the
wages. It sheuld be noticed in addi
tion that the majority of families bave
more than one wage earner. This gir
cumstance would incresse the advance
ia wages to the family without adding
anything to the cost of living”
Local branches of the United Mine
Workers in the anthracite region are
electing delegates to the Scrantea con
ventien, which Is to be held tomorrew,
and most of them are lastructing thalr
delegates to follow President Miteh-
oll's advice implicitly. The sheoting at
Mount Carmel, which is genersily be
lieved by the mime workers to have
Deen unjustified, has aroused a sullen
anger that may lead to a strong move
ment in favor of a strike.
President Mitchell when questioned
about the matter expressed bis feelings
as follows:
“The action of the troopers seems to
confirm the fears of the foreigners that
the establishment of a state constabu.
lary was to establish a Russian insti.
tution fn this country. The shooting
was seemingly uncalled fer and Is
greatly to be deplored.”
Meee than this he would not say.

excitement.
Sherring speedily tock the lead, fol
jowed by Swamberg (Swede) and
Frank. When De found himself well
ahead Bherring dropped Into a walk,
giving himself great reserve for the
final spurt. Whenever he saw his op-
peaents approaching he resumed run-

out except Swamberg and Frank, who
always wers a good distance behind

At the gates of the Stadium Sherring,
smiling and looking fresh and net at
all distressed, waa joined by Crown

thusiasm, although the Greeks evident:
Iy were disappointed.
Swamberg followed seven minutes
behind the winner, and Frank came
twelve minutes later, both done up.
The king and quesn both congratu-
lated Sherring In the kindllest manner.

WABHINGTON, May 2 -Elght years

in Washington, this May day diuner,
and the affair was a brilllaut function
Admiral Dewey beld & reception, aud
& great many came to pay thelr re
spects and offer their cougratulations.
The admiral looks exceptionally well
and will probably enjoy wany acother
snnlversary
He was made to talk of his victory.
He sald that he believed that as the
day of the victory of Maulla bay grows
more distant the Importance of It
grows bigger lu the eyes of the peo
ple
“Every year that passes” Admiral
Dewey sald, “makes me think that the
people of this country Lave a growling
realization of the lmportauce of the
victory of the American Heet eight
years ajo, bringiog about, as It did,
the possession of the Philippines bY
the United States.
“There are those who say that we
should give up the Philippines, but 1
think that if we want the trade of the
Pacific, and we certaloly do want it,
we must hold the Philippines. They
are essential to our success in com-
merce in the Pacific, and we bave In
them a base which Is invaluable. Spain
for hundreds of years had an immeuse
cominerce with the far east, and her
success was due to ber possession of
the Philippines. It is essential that we
have a base for our arpy and our
navy in the far sast
“The people of the nation appreciate
more and more the value of the is
lands and the werk dous by the offi-
cera and men of the American fest on
that day.”
Admiral Dewey has written the
whole history of the battle of Manila
Bay, but it is locked up and will pot
be published, at least not for a long
time. He told of some details of the
fight hitherto unknown.
“When we ware at Hongkong.” he
sald, “our situation was critical. We
bad but little ammunition, and had It
not been for the timely arrival of the
cruiser Baltimore forty-eight hours be-
fore our departure we would have bean
in a serious predicament
“The Baltimore came from Honolulu,
coming on to Hougkoug lo nine days
at top speed. As It was, we bad only
half the regular war allowance of am-
munition. When we passed up and
down In front of the Spanish fleet
five times and then withdrew for
breakfast, so it was reported, we were
really golug to see how much ammual-
tien remained. There was but little,
and It was a sorry lot that went to
‘breakfast’ that morning. But we had
our opponents beaten then, although we
did not know It at the time.”
A story concerning the cables which
Adwiral Dewey purposely cut was told.
When Admiral Dewey reached Manila
be knew of only oue cable. He cut
that without Lesitation. Later on, aft-
er the blockade bad been fully estab-
lished, the captain of an English ship
came aboard on sowe pretext and ask-
ed “If both cables bad been cut” An
hour later the secorl one was fished
up and chopped In two.
