Williams & McAnulty Beaumont, Tex., Oct. 8.—Another great lire, more disastrous than the contlngration of n few weeks ago, has swept over the oilUelds here, causing the loss of twenty or more lives and entailing a property damage of many thousands of dollars. Ilrenk In the Itnnkn. For a Fine Display of Carpets and Wall Papers. For the first time .since the conference at the White House last Friday President Roosevelt learned through mi authoritative source that there was u break In the line of operators and an Important part of them were willing to yield. Just what concessions they were willing to make Is not yet known, for thero Is olHclal silence on tills subject. It Is quite evident, however, that persons higher in authority than the operators who were present at the White House conference nave become convinced that the refusal to accept the good offices of the president of the United States was a mistake and have brought pressure to bear. In reply Mr. Mitchell pointed out in substance that offers for conciliation already bronght forth by those high in authority had been spumed by the operators. He would not itlace the miners in the jioKltloii of supplicants for peace. They were willing to abide by the decision of fair arbitrators. As the mutter now stood i) proiKisul from the operators was the thing to be expected. The greatest enthusiasm of the duy was shown over the cadets from Annupolls. Their superb carriage and alignment in the parade won the hearts of the veterans.

While he recognized Lee as a great soldier and a man of many admirable qualities, he said General Lee had exercised Ills skill and energy to haul down the flag of the nation and therefore it was currying sentiment too fur to ask Union veterans to assist in erecting a monument to him.

Just what concessions they were willing to make Is not yet known, for thero Is olHclal silence on tills subject. It Is quite evident, however, that persons higher in authority than the operators who were present at the White House conference nave become convinced that the refusal to accept the good offices of the president of the United States was a mistake and have brought pressure to bear. In reply Mr. Mitchell pointed out in substance that offers for conciliation already bronght forth by those high in authority had been spumed by the operators. He would not itlace the miners in the jioKltloii of supplicants for peace. They were willing to abide by the decision of fair arbitrators. As the mutter now stood i) proiKisul from the operators was the thing to be expected. The greatest enthusiasm of the duy was shown over the cadets from Annupolls.
