Speaking for the Operators Baer De clares That No Concessions Will Re Made to the Strikers. Fight To Continue to the Bitter End. Pittsburg. September 3.—“ An ex tra session of the legislature would cost the state less money than it is costing to maintain the militia in the anthracite region to prevent and suppress riots.” In these words Governor W. A. Stone indicated to a few of his friends during his visit here his pur pose to call an extra session of the Pennsylvania legislature and tryJo end the anthracite strike. Mr. Stone is said to believe that by this means an end of the strike could be made in less than thirty days. The plan he proposes is a compulsory ar bitration law. Philadelphia. September 3.—President € George F. Baer, of the Reading company t and United States Senator* Quay nnd Penmae held a long conference today tn the executive office* of the Reading com- # pjnv. In this city, at which the anthra , cite coal miner*’ strike was thoroughly , discussed. At the conclusion of the con- , ference President Baer issued a lengthy l reply Io the two senator*. Among other thing* he said: ■’The management of business beiong to the owner*. In the case of coal com panies the law casts tne management and control on the directors and officer., whose responsibility is to their * » holder* to the state and to the publk. Th- right of th- stockholders is to . pod management and a fair return on their investment. The obligation to the stat, is to conduct the business in strie - conformity to the law* it has establlshed. , Th- duty to the public, so far a* Pr*J , livable. to conduct the business *o as to add to the common welfare. -Th- coal operator* say that they can not mine coal because the miner* make demand* which render it inukuwible to ■ mine coal profitably and that the state ha* enacted laws prohibiting the emp.oy- I m. nt of n.en in the mines unless the » have worked two year* in anthra. ■ mine* and therefore they cannot tor ti e time being min.- coal. How then, under these circumstance*, can there be an* 1 violation of public duty? If we yield to • th- extravagant demands of the miners we Will lose money. If we attempt to tn- I cre.se the price of coal we will destroy th- industries depending upon anthracite i fuel If we increase the price on tne do . mestic sixes we will be called rooocC . barons, oppressor* of the poor, monopo ] lists and enemies of mankind.

BUSINESS IS PARALYZED AND PEOPLE ARE STARVING Washington. September s.—United States Minister Bowen, at Caracas, bus forwarded to the state department, under date of August 24. a plaintive pica for the poor in that capital who are suffering great misery as the result of the pro tracted war now in progress. The spe cial plea is made by Rev. T. S. Pond, the senior American missTonary In Cara cas, and Mr. Bowen has undertaken glad ly to receive rfhy contributions. Mr. Pond says business enterprises are paralyzed and the rural districts are in a state of desolation. “The iiH'ople are actually starving “ he writes, “and are rapidly invading the city In the hope of obtaining something to do, or at least something to eat. “At least half the families of this city can gain ably on.- fair meal a day. Hun- 1 dreds cannot obtain even that. The price of necessities of life is very high and rising still, owing to war panic and the prolonged hostilities." Rebels Move on Castro. Barcelona, Venezuela. September 5. •—■•neral Mritos, the revolutionary, leader, has ordered all his military chiefs to con centrate In th< direction of Alta Gracia, whence the troops will move later on Caracas.

September 5.-The troop* of General Alexis Nord, war min ister of the provisional government, were defeated yesterday and the day before near Limhe. The opposing forces are said to have lost heavily. General Es- I mangard. who actually commanded the I government force engaged, was captui« by the revolutionists, and a portion of t e government artillery tell into the hands of the Artebonite forces.

Work of the Machias. Washington. September s.—The navy de partment has received from Commander McCrea, of the Machias, a mail report under date of Cape Haitlen. August IK. setting out in detail the steps taken by that officer to prevent interference with the world's commerce as a result of the bitter insurrectionary struggle now in progress in Haitlen waters. Commander McCrea was. troin the nature ot the case, obliged to act without opportunity to consult the navy or state department*, but it is stated that his vigorous and ei fcctive measun s are thoroughly approv ed. It appears from the qommapder s ieport that he took under his charge the I commerce of nearly all the European I countries in addition to that of hi* own. L His attitude to Admiral Killick, the in surgent commander, as revealed in tne report, is significant as indicating tne adoption ot a stronger policy than has been pursued heretofore in the treatment I of South American anti Central Arneri- I can revolutions, which injuriously affect I the commerce of the world. German Steamer Seized. Berlin. Heptember s.—An official dis patch was received here from Port-au- Prince, Haiti, yesterday, confirming the Associated Press dispatch of September 3 from Cape Haitten. announcing tnat the Haitlen revolutionary gunboat Crete-a- Pierrot stopped the German steamer Markomannla September 2 at the entrant <• of the. harbor ot Cape Haitlen, sent an armed tone on boand of her and took possession ot her war munitions belong ing to the provisional government of Haiti, and adding that the captain of the <'rete-a-Pierrot subsequently released the steamer The representatives of the various low ers here are unanimously ot the opinion that the Crete-a-Pierrot cannot be regard ed as a warship ot a belligerent state and that the search of the German ship and I the confiscation of the arm* and ammuni tion on board ot her was nothing but an I act ot piracy. German Ship Sinks Haitien Boat, umis * i ~ui Enn lent ‘to capture the iirminist gunboat Crete-a- Flerrot. She left immediately for G<»- naives, the seat of the firminist govern ment. The Panther found the; Crete-a- Plerrot In the harbor of Gonaives. and tlie commander of tiie German gunboat informed Admiral Killick. on the Crete-a- Pierrot, that he must remove his crew and surrender hi* vessel in five minutes' time. Admiral Killick asked that this time be extended to fifteen minutes. This request was granted on the condition that the arm* and ammunition on board the < rete-a-Pierrot should be abandoned i when her crew left her. The crew of the Crete-a-Pierrot left to;.t vessel amid great disorder. At tne end I of fifteen minute* the Panther sent a small boat carrying an officer and twenty ■ sailors, who were to take possession ot i the firminist gunboat. When the.c men I had arrived at a point *t> >uk J*> yard* from the Crcte-a-Pierrot flames were seen i to break out on board of her. She had I been fired by her crew before tney left I her. The Panther tnea fired u n tne Crete-a-Perriot until she was ccmple.eiv ’ immersed. Thirty shots all told were ! fired. There is much feeling against the hru- I inist*. and their cause is c msidered to be ! a bad one. Soldiers are 1 ivu.g here to | attack St. Marie Port au prince is calm. I The Crete-a-Pierrot was a steel vessel I of Itotl tons displacement. She was armed with one t1.2-ineh guns, one 4.7-lneh. four 3.Mnch. two Maxim machine guns and four Nordenfeld machine guns. Ttie Crete-a-l’ierrot was formerly in the ser vice of the Haitien government, and Ad | miral Killlek was commander of the Hai !th n fleet. June 27, of this year. Admiral Killiek disembarked troops from the Crete-a-Pierrot to support General Firm in. one of tin- candidates for the presi dency of the republic, and after refusing to recognize the constituted authorities, he threatened to bombard Cape Haitien. The consular corps protested against >.i a action being taken, but their efforts fail ed of success, for a few days later the admiral did bombard Cape Haitien, al though little damage was done liv the Crete-a-Pierrot’s tire. Since June 27 the Crete-a-l’ierrot has been operating in the interests of Oneral Firmin. The Haitien government disavowed the action of Ad miral Killiek in bombarding Cape Hai tien and ordered his arrest The Panther is a steel cruising vessel of 977 tons. She was built at Danzig, in 19t.1, and is 20K feet long. She is armed with eight 4-inch quick tiring guns and two machine guns Th.- Panther left Germany- July 29 for the Caribbean sea. Captain Scheder. the newly appointed German commodore of the American station, had an audience with Emperor William to re ceive special instructions before starting for his post on the Panther. There are three candidates for the pres idency of Haiti Callsthenes Fouchard.

TABERNACLE CHURCH STICKS TO ALIEN BNPTISM, &o Say Dr. Broughton and Chairman Fkxett, of Board of Deacons— Resolutions Passed By As sociation Cah for Such Action by Churcn. By Lauren W. Foreman. Clarkston. Ga.. September Staff Correspondence.)—R f *olutions were adopted today by the Stone Mountain Baptist Association, in session a dian Creek church, near Clarkston, which will probably result in that associations withdrawing the hand of fellowship rom the Tabema.le Baptist church, of At lanta, of which Rev. Len G. Broug i o IB pasuvi. that The resolutions adopted call on tha church to rescind the action tak< n months ago sanctioning the acceptan applicants who were baptized by alien immersion.’- While discussing he r, s lution Dr. Broughton stated thatJ Tabernacle Baptist church would rescind this action while h « tor. inferring that he would im ' h r. sign hi* pastorship should the church agree to abide by the decision of the a. sociation. R. N. Fiekett chairman of the board of deacons of the 1 Baptist church, stated to i representative of The Constitution after the m< g that the church would never rescind its action; that the action taken is ngnt. th.it it was taken after long eonsid. ra tion, and that consequently the church will’stand by it. come what may. The nine messengers of the ’laberna Baptist church who were present wer a unit in supporting Dr. Broughton. . > , that it seems that there is not the pos sibility of their taking the advice of the i association, it now seems that the} wil. I in a short time consider lh“ resolutions and decline to abide by them. This w I put the matter up to the association of next year and in the opinion of promlnen j Baptists the association will in that ch> withdraw the hand of fellowship from the Tabernacle Baptist church. Resolutions Introduced. It had been expected that this matter would form the chief topic of the first div of the association, and. in fact, th. association gave little attention to an>- thing else after it was organized and officers for the next year elected, tne subject was pu\ before the li .use as soon as the subject »f miscellaneous bu*im-* was reached at 11 o'clock yesterdaj morning. The discussion closed with the adoption of the resolutions shortly afi. c:3O o’clock yesterday afternoon. The lesolutiuns w< re offered by Rev. 1 u. Walkef, of Uthonia, and were as lol '""Whereas, Tabernacle chhreh lias declared in favor of al en immersion' and is practicing me "Whereas. This church did not come into tile association with such devia tion. of order and practice; and. •Wheiea*. Tabernacle church order has been changed and : I >.-l fr.'B' tie ord- r ot ail tn.. > \vb. r. ;is. For Stone Mountain As . I soeiation to overlook such order ami . : practice, confusion would be inevita- ; ble. not only to churches in our asso ciation, but also in other churches in I Georgia, thtr.fore, be it Resolved. That we, the m-ssengers I of the other < hi.rches In Stone Moun j tain Associatioi, earnestly request Tabernacle Baptist chin h to rest Ind their act accepting 'alien baptism*,* to return to their forinei church or i der and nractie ', and to harmoniously labor with us in the cause of Christ." The offering of these resolutions pre- I cipitated a discussion which w;:s char- I acterized mete by the rl illful • ict of I those engaged in it than by any warmt > iof expression. However, det< rmina i tion of those on either side to carrv th.* ■ point at issue was plainly visible. Once I or twice matters seemed near a crisis I and only the finest diplimacy of those i who had the matter in 'barge prevented i a bitter and impassioned debate. Basis cf Opposition. From the tirst there skeined little doubt I but that the resolution* would be passed. This was shown conclusively by the loss of a motion to table the resolutions, the vote against tabling them being over whelming. Nevertheless, the gentlemen Who were opposed to the resolution* made a determined light to keep them from going tbroujh. Those who opposed the resolutions based their opposition on two point*. First, that it was unfair to single out the Tabernacle Baptist church in this matter, since they claimed that other church.s in the association had follow, d the same practice. Second, that the res olutions w B re not in accord with th • organic law of the association, since in it* definition of baptism 't sav* nothing concerning the administrator. Reference was made to both the First ‘ BapHst church and the Second Biptist church, of Atlanta, stating that ■ . h h 11 1 received persons who were isiptiz-d bv "alien immersion." The reference to the First Baptist church was tuilisequently wlthdrawn. The messengers of the Sec ond Baptist church said that they knew nothing of such action by that church, and the gentlemen who opposed the res olution admitted that the specific case ref-rred to oeeurr- d fourteen years ag .. The portion of the organic law which was involved in the discussion was the fourth article of the declaration on church order, which reads as follows: The Scriptures prescribe no mode of baptism. The Lord commands the im mersion of a believer in wafer into the name of the Father, and of the Son. and of the Holy Spirit; and a change in this In any particular violates the command, and what is done is not baptism. Mat thew xxvili. 19-20; Mark xvi. 15-16; Acts ; | vlli. 16-3 S. xix. 1-5; Acts xx. 7. i The discussion was opened by Rev Mr. ’ | Walker, of Lithonia, the author of the iesolutions, who spoke in favey of them. ' He said that the resolutions were pre- 1 , sented in all kindness and reminded the I messengers of the Tabernacle Baptist • churck that the resolutions w- ad dressed to the church and not to the mes sengers themselves. c Rev. L. G. Brought an Talks. I Dr. Broughton In replying stated that j before voting on the resolutions he wanted I to know what would be the effect if th-v were passed and the Tabernacle Baptist I church refused to accept them. When some one of the messengers questioned hist right to make this inquiry and accused Dr. Broughton of predicating the action of his church, he replied; “I do not claim to bind my church, but I know that the Tabernacle Baptist church j will not rescind its action as to this mat | ter. Certainly it will never do it while 1 am its pastor." Dr. Broughton outlined the history of the growth of the belief in the acceptance of “alien immersions” by his church. He said that the action of the board of dea cons had been taken after prayerful con sideration and without any coaching on his part. He explained that he had al ways believed in “alien immersion," com ing as he does from Virginia, where it is universally practiced. Dr. Broughton said that while he dll not believe that the resolutions were in stigated by any feeling against him still he did believe that a feeling against the Tabernacle Baptist church was largely responsible for the whole movement. “And." said he. “the only reason 1 can assign for this feeling is that the Taber- Scrofda Few free fron.
