tion No statement was given out ai
to the conclusions reached and every
participant absolutely refused to did
cuts what had taken place during the

Under the circumstances It li almost
Impossible to do more than draw the
molt general conclusions ai to the na
ture of the proceeding baaed upon
uponI
what preceded the meeting The
known facts are that the president
has reached the conclusion that he
bAl nothing to expect lave refusal
from a farther appeal to the coal ope
rator and therefore has decided to
look for relief from the situation to
the miners lido
He feels that he hardly can expect
them to make the sacrifice of all their
contentions without holding out at
lout u promise of the ohms return
and the question before him li es to
his ability to do thlt Ha can
ledge himself to appeal to congress
