"IS NO, OTHER WAY" MINERS CLAIM IN STRIKE STATEMENT

? INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Oct. 30. The statement Issued last night by the miners' conference, following sessions khat occupied most of the day, Is as follows: The conference of United Mine Workers, composed of members of the international Executive board, the (scale committee of the Central Comtpetitive district, and the district presidents, United Mine Workers of Amerlkca, gave most profound consideration ito the statement of the president of the United States, which appeared In It he public press recently, relative to Jthe impending strike of bituminous imlners set for Nov. 1. No communication was received by the international officers of the United Mine Workers pof America from either the president pr any representative of the Federal government A canvass of the entire situation )phows that a strike of bituminous mincers cannot be avoided. A regularly constituted convention of representatives of the United Mine Workers !held at Cleveland, O., on Sept. 25, ordered a strike of bituminous mine workers to become effective Nov. 1 in

the event a wage scale was not negotiated before that time. The highest authority in the organization has ected in this manner, and no representatives of the organization have authority to set such action aside. The facts are that the same supreme nuthority which ordered the pending ptrike is the same as that which approved the contract which has now expired. The responsibility for the strike rests with the coal operators. They have refused to negotiate a wage agreement, notwithstanding the fact the mine workers' representatives have urged and beseeched them to do so. The fundamental causes which prompted the mine workers to take this drastic action are deep seated. For two years their wages have remained stationary. They appealed one year ago to the Federal fuel administrator, Dr. Garfield, and from him to the president of the United States, for an increase in wages sufficient to meet the increases in the cost of necessaries of life. Their appeal was rejected and their request refused. Notwithstanding this, they continued mining coal until now their contracts expires, when they are de

termined that their grievances must bo adjusted in a reasonably satisfactory manner. Have Right to Quit. The courts have held that the working men have a right to strike and may quit work either singly or collectively for the purpose of redressing grievances and righting wrongs. The constitution and guarantees of this free government give men the right to work" or quit work individually or collectively.

The mine workers therefore are but exercising the right guaranteed by the constitution and which cannot be taken away by representatives of government when they quit work or when they refuse to work until their grievances are adjusted. The mine workers' representatives are ready, willing and anxious to meet the coal operators for the purpose of negotiating an agreement and bringing about a settlement of the present unhappy situation. They will respond at any time to a call for such a meeting and will honestly endeavor to work out a wage agreement upon a fair and equitable basis. Such agreement alone will put the mines In operation and guarantee the nation an adequate supply of coal. We assert that the mine workers have no other purpose in view other than to secure a working wage agreement. All of their demands are incorporated In the wage proposal submitted to the coal operators and each and al! are subject to negotiation. Conscious of the grave responsibility resting upon the representatives of the coal miners, we have no other alternative than to carry out the instructions of the United Mine Workers convention. The Issue has been made, and if it must be settled upon the field of industrial battle, the responsibility rests fairly and squarely upon the coal barons alone.

"The Mysterious Mr. Browning," which comes to the Murray theatre today. Walter Miller, who plays a dual part, that of a millionaire bank president, and also "Red" Harrigan, of the underworld, shows that he has studied his characters welL "Sis" Hampton portrays a role that Is new to her, but that is destined to increase her popularity with motion picture fans. Paul Panzer supports the star and has an important part. The story is unique as well as mysterious. It resolves itself around the millionaire bank president, who seeks his long lost brother. Because of their earlier life, he suspects that his brother will be found in the underworld, and goes there nightly disguised as "Red" Harrington. Because of his prowling about, Harrigan is suspected by the police, and because they can not get any evidence, they seek to "frame" him, but the plot is discovered by "Sis" and foiled. It all turns out happily in the end, however, ana the mystery is cleared up.

MURRETTE. Ths is the last day at the Murrette theatre of "Broken Commandments," a William Fox photoplay, in which Gladys Brockwell has scored a triumph that outdoes her past successes. The story is unusual, tragic, human, and the ending is the most unusual of alL Those who miss this story will miss one of the best, in dramatic presentaUon, as in the lovely California scenery. WASHINGTON. It Is one of the wonderful things about the motion-picture art of David Vv'ark Griffith that even when constructing a master-piece such as "Broken Blossoms," he is able to forget for a time the largeness and main appeal of his story to pay minute, even microscopic, attention to some small detail that, perhaps not ten per cent of his audiences would ever regard as essential.

In his grimly beautiful spectacle, "Broken Blosslnis," now at the Washington Theatre, that takes place In "the low-lit Causeway that slinks from the West India Dock Road to the dark waste of water beyond," Mr. Griffith has stripped the original story by Thomas Burke down to its "essential characters. And yet he has understood that to make people thoroughly understand the true nature of the Chinese poet, Cheng Huan, something must be known of his past; he must show that Cheng Huan was not simply a product of that one room over Tai Fu's 6tore in Pennyfields, but must bring his audiences to realize that this Chinese poet had a heart filled with the murmuring of plum blossoms, ricefields and the stream.

MURRAY "The Bird of Paradise, Richard Walton Tully's singular play of Hawaii now In Its ninth season, comes to the Murray theatre Nov. 10, with Florence Rockwell in the Utle role.

"BROKEN BLOSSOMS"

As startling an advancement in the cinema art as were the other triumphs of this world genius. A drama of profound emotion, of exquisite delicacy, of triffic strength. It 13 a worthy expression of Mr. Griffith's great talents in their rich maturity.

The quality of fascinaUon which "The Bird of Paradise" so definitely possesses is blended of many things. It lies partly in the walling, whining Hawaiian music, partly in the strange rites and superstlUous naUvea, partl in the singularity of character, of scene and of story. It is redolent of
