Washington, D.C., Oct. 3.--At 11:25 o'clock, when the conference on the coal strike situation had been in pro- gress but fifteen minutes, the railway representatives left the conference room and were closeted in a room on the lower floor of the White House. The general supposition was that they had either received a proposition and had retired to eonsider it or had retired to prepare one of their own. Soon aiter retiring to thei! room the railway re; yresentatives left the White House. They refused to sav anything except that they' were com- ing back at three o'clock for a further conference. President Baer was asked bv a number of newspaper men, where he could be seen, and said: "'Gentle- men, we are tryjne to get just where we can confer, and where vou cannot see ns." President Mitchell and his party left the White House soon after the rail- wav presidents) The following statement public at the White House: temarks of President Roosevelt at opening of conference : "1 wish to call vour attention to the fact that there are three parties affected by the situation in the an- thracite trade. The operators, the miners and the general public. T speak was made for neither the operators nor the min- ers, but for the general public. The questions at issue which led to the situation affect immediately the par- the operators and «the situation itseli vital- ly afiects the public. As long as there seems to be a reasonable hope that these matters could adjusted be- tween the parties it"did not seem. pro- per to me to ifitervene in anv way. I\disclaim any right or duty to inter- vene in this way upon lecal grounds, or upon any official relation that I hear to the situation, but the urgen- cy and the terrible nature of the cat- dstrophe impending over a large por- tion of our people in the shape of winter fuel famine, impels me after much anxious thought, to believe that my duty requires me to use whatever influence I pérsonally can bring to end a situation which has become literar- ly intolerable. "I wish to emphasize of the situation and to sav its grav. ity is such that I am constrained ur- gently to insist that each one of you realize the heavy burden of responsi hilitv upon him. We are upon thresh- hold of winter, with an already exist- coal famine, the future course of which we can hardly yet avpreciate. The evil possibilities are so far reach. ing, so appaling, that it scems to me that vou are not only justified in sinking, but required to sink, for the time being, any tenacity that your respective claims in the matter at iste between you. "In my judgment the situation im- peratively requires that vou meet up- on the common plan of the necessities of the public. "With all the earnestness there is in me Task that there be an immediate resumption of operations in the coal mines in some such wav as will, with- out a day's unnccessary delay, meet the erving needs of 'the people. "I do not invite a discussion of vour respective clgims and positions. I appeal to your 'patriotism, to ties concerned, miners, but the he the character ing spirit that sinks personal considera- tions and makes individual sacrifices jor the general good."

The Y.M.C.A's reception to young men, held! last evening, was the most successful -event of its kind ever held in the assotiation building. Between 350 and 400 people were present. The decorations, especially those in the gvmnasium, were very elaborate. Much of the material was loaned by the city, and Secretary Lawrence and his assistants had artistically arrang- ed it: The platform had a back- ground composed of gymnastic ap- paratus. The 14th Regimental 'Band, which freely contributed their servic- es, occupied a platform near the cen- tre of the hall. Their selections were greatly appreciated. The programme included : Violin solo, Miss E. Arm- Arthur Craig and piano selection, strong: vocal solos, Miss Mabel Bailey; Miss L. Singleton. BE. PDP Tine who made a capable chairman, gave a thoughtful five-min- ute talk on physical culture. He pointed out its relation to spiritual and moral life.

During the half-hour's premenade the visitors explored every part of the building. Refreshments were after- wards served by the Ladies' Auxili- ary. Much of the success of the .even- ing is due to Thomas Renton, who as head of the ten ushers, rendered faithful assistance.
