Operators Are Determined to Avoid Any Recognition of Miners' Organization. COMMISSION ADJOURNS TO MEET IN SCRANTON. MITCHELL. STRIVES HARD TO SE CURE RECOGNITION BY AP POINTMENT OF AN AUDITOR ON THE PART OF THE MINERS. BAER'S OPPOSITION. 'Washington, Oct. 27. The coal strike commission adjourned this afternoon to meet Thursday in Scranton. The com- mission considers: tan inspection of the the physical aspects of the mining -business of 'great importance to the intel ligent consideration of the questions that may arise. It was evident from the discussion at today's session that there will be no undue haste in investi gating con di tons in the mine region. Not only will the commission familiar ize itself with the work of mining, but j also with the home life of the miners. The proceedings today were very In-j formal and the best feeling prevailed, ; although it was made clear that the operators are determined to avoid any recognition of the .miners' organization. I T. . , A , It was equally evident that Mitchell wfliiw fir. v.ic ,itTYinC ooo, nition. Once Mich3ll tried hard to se cure this recognition by urging the ap pointment of an auditor on the part of the operators, the auditor on the part of the miners to investigate the coal companies' books with a view of ascer ! taining the wage rate, but the result of the argument on this question was that the operators and miners would submit separate data on the question, and any differences that might arfee would be adjusted 'by an expert ac countant, to be appointed by the com misslon. Baer made it apparent at the outset of today's proceedings that he would not consent to any recognition of Mitchell as the representative of the United Mine Workers, which organiza tion, Baer explained, is controlled by miners of bituminous coal.

An immense democratic congressional rally was held in Madison Square Garden tonight. Among the speakers were Senator Jones, Congressman Griggs, Senator Culbertson, Mayor Schmitz of San Francisco, ex-Senator Hill and Adlai Stevenson. The rally was under the auspices of the National Association of Democratic clubs, of which William R. Hearst, who is running for congress, is president. The speakers all discussed the issues of the campaign, and predict ed a sweeping democratic victory. The chief interest centered in Hill, as it was announced that he would further denounce Governor Odell. Stevenson in his speech assailed the trusts and said the greatest issue of the campaign, was tariff refOTra, which, he declared, could only be obtained through ft democratic congress. Hill was the chief orator of the even ing. He said democratic victory meant triumph for revenue reform and se curement to the people that coal, beef and other necessaries of life would be free from tariff duties. He discussed other national issues, denounced pres ent high taxation, imperialism and militarism and said democratic vic tory meant' relief from all these. He discussed state issues at length and again scored Odell for his connection with the grocery concern that supplied state institutions, reiterating his former remarks on that subject. THE STATE FAIR Sipecial to the Gazette. Raleigh, N. C, Oct. 27. All that is wanted to make the state fair the greatest success on record is good weather. An east wind with rain has prevailed today but the weather bu reau holds hopes of clearing skies to morrow. Preparations for opening to morrow are much further advanced than usual and the exhibits are a great improvement over previous years. The agricultural department far surpasses anything seen at recent fairs. The ex hibits are three times as numerous as last year. The Biltmore farm as usual is a prominent feature or tnis depart ment. It embraces many novel and at tractive exhibits. The poultry depart ment is very full and live stock is par ticularly good. The midway attrac tions are numerous and excellent and the management assures- the public that objectionable features if any are found will be excluded from theV ground. Fa cilities for transportation and enter tainment are a great improvement over former years. There will be a record breaking attendance if the rain stops. Houses Pop Kent.

I ers, it is no wonder then that our county still has a floating indebted ness of nearly $25,000. Under such management, the finances of Buncombe county are growing -worse rapidly. Will the taxpayers of Buncombe coun ty vote to continue these men in con trol of our "finances? We do not believe a civilized people wifl do so. INQUIRER. L YOUNG TO SUCCEED MILES Washington, Oct. 2T. "I do not think that I am betraying any confidence when I say that Major General S. B. M. Young will be the next lieutenant general of the army," said Major General Corbin today, then he added: "And his promotion will be enjoyed by no one more than myself." Lieutenant-General Miles will retire from age next August. This declara tion by General Corbin was inspired by some comment to the effect that the appearance of his (General Corbin's) name in the monthly army list next after that of General Miles, pointed out his probable succession. As a fact, it is stated, that the order of the names in the list was fixed by the seniority of the commissions of the officers. General Young would have about a vear to serve m that srade if he is made lieutenant general. TWENTY-NINE TO NOTHING Lexington, Va., Oct. 27.

Pi v GENERA DIFFERENCES OF ODELL AND PLATT AN ALLEGATION THAT FORMER IS CONSPIRING IN THE HARRIMAN INTERESTS. Ultimate Object Is to Put Piatt Out of Business as a Sena torial Candidate. WANTS TWO SENATORS AGREEABLE TO HARRIMAN ODELL, IT IS SAID, CHARGED SEL- DEN WITH "MORGANISM," AND THE LATTER RETORTED BY CHARGING "HARRIMANISM." Schenectady. Oct. 27. The Star this evening publishes a special from Al bany to the effect that Odeli Is conspir ing with the Interests of E. H. Har riman of the Southern Pacific to pre vent the re-election of Piatt to t he senate, and it is Odell's intension if he is re-elected governor, to put Piatt out of business as a candidate for sena tor. The article says that when the re publican convention was in session in Saratoga Odell walked into Piatt's cot tage and told Sheldon he was too much of a J. P. Morgan man and he didn't want him on the ticket as a candidate for lieutenant governor. Sheldon re torted that he was not half as much a Morgan man as Odell was a Harriman man. It declares Odell wants two men elected to the senate from New York who favor Harriman's interests. It further charges that Odell traveled to California in a private car provided by Harriman.
