HEADQUARTERS MOVED.

Mitchell Transfers Office and Effects to Scranton.

Wilkesbarre, Pa., Nov. 13--There was a busy time at miners' headquarters Wednesday. President Mitchell was holding conferences all day with delegations of miners, his lawyers and members of the executive boards of the United Mineworkers. The case of the miners, as it will be submitted to the arbitration commission, which meets at Scranton Friday, was gone over carefully by the executive heads of the miners' union--the attorneys and expert miners who were summoned here especially for that purpose.

The evidence collected by President Mitchell on behalf of the miners is voluminous and covers every possible point that may be raised when the commission sits. President Mitchell and his official family will "break up house" today and remove to Scranton. He will now make his headquarters in Scranton and remain there until the commission completes its work, when he will return to national headquarters at Indianapolis.
