Hermann Oelrichs expects to go abroad for a short trip before returning I to San Francisce » MINERS MAKE GONGESSIONS Important Point in the Pennsylvania Dis- pute Settled. s et R PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 29.—The Phila- delphia and Reading Coal and Iron Com- pany, the last of the large companies to put its case before the Coal Strike Com- mission, took up the time of to-day's ses- slons of the commission. At the afternoon session announcement was made that the mine workers and the Reading Company had agreed that the welghing of coal in the southern coal flelds is impracticable. This settles, so far as this field is concerned, qne of the principal points in dispute. It is still a bone of contention in the middle and up- per regions. Most of the contract min- ers in the southern fields are paid by the vard. The witnesses called by the Reading Company to-day were principally superin- tendents, who told of conditions existing about and in the collieries owned by that company. The first witness was John Veith of Pottsville, general mining superintendent of the company. Under examination he gave in detail a technical description of the varying conditions of the mines. If a miner is unable to earn living wages it is the rule of the company to give the men an allowance. The company does not maintain company stores, mnor employ company doctors. Nelther has it a dock- ing system. On cross-examination Veith sald he did not consider mining extremely dangerous, and added that many accidents are due to the negligence of the men. Chairman Gray interrupted to say that negligence of the men should not be taken into con- sideration in judging whether the occu- pation is not dangerous. “The average human being,’ he said, “is more or less negligent of his work.” DECLINES TO INVITE PRESIDENT’S DAUGHTER New Orleans &cr:brder Puts Slight Upon Her for Her Father’s Policy. NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 20.—The “Seven Wise Men'" have declined to extend an invitation to Miss Allcé Roosevelt, daugh- ter of the President, to attend the ball they give during the Mardi Gras festival on account of President Roosevelt's policy toward the negroes. Miss Roosevelt wi attend the carnival as the guest of John Mcllhenny, a membef of the Rough Riders. The *“Seven Wise Men" is a national secret order and is not one of the carni- val societios proper.
