Polish newspapers have received the emperor's speech in sllcnce. Inquiries made among the Poles and Germans of .this city indicate that both elements consider the race quarrel In the provinces as likely to continue and that it will result in hard feelings and hard uftage on both sides, trade and social boycotts, secret societies and the employment of spies. ■ It is reported here that President Mitchell advised the strikers to return yto work, as he realized that winter is nenr at hand and the miners in this field could not hold out much longer, as almost every one Is dependent upon the union for food and clothing. It is thought the strikers in the New River and Kannwha iields will soon follow the action of the strikers on the Norfolk and Western. The Pocahontas mine continues to burn, but the operators think they will soon have it under control. No violence lias Mm reported from any quarter of the Norfolk and Western coalfield. The president was accompanied by Secretary Cortelyou, Dr. Lung and by his stenographers, Latta and Weaver. It was thought Mr. Cortelyou would not be sufficiently recovered from the injuries ho received in the accident to qccompuny the president, but word was received from Hempstead in the early morning that the secretary felt perfectly capable of resuming his duties.
