Washington reports urge the President to ask Mr Mitchell to persuade miners to return to work trusting public opinion to force reforms. Miners have fought five months for a decent livelihood, endured privation, and now face surrender under presumed generosity of operators. Operators refuse to yield, public opinion unseen, fueling doubt about any broad concessions.

Correction of Col Gaston remarks at Ward 28 meeting
A reader requests a correction of Tuesday night remarks by Colonel Gaston at the Ward 28 Democratic gathering. The paper says he stated Scent fare to Roslindale would take effect within a week, but the speaker intended that the terms of the Old Colony street railway and Boston Elevated railway agreement for Scent fares would be announced within a week. The lease, under dispute for six months, must be approved by railroad commissioners before any fare can be set, with the Elevated involved in the agreement.
