..Monroe Doctrine" Dis batod.

Washington. May 1.-In order to make a better understanding of it's posi- ton in the present trouble between Great Britain and Nicaragua, the state department has had printed for dis tribution to all persons interested m the bearing of the Monroe doctrine on the attitude of the British in landing troops at Corinto circular or con venient size, containing the. text ot the famous principle enunciated by MT Monroe There is nothing about the circular to indicate for what purpose 1t was issued and the words Depart ment of State, Washington, D. c., Tn the lower left hand corner of the last page serve alone to show it's origin The circular is headed, Extracts from the Seventh Annual Message of James Monroe, President of the United States, Dated December 2, 1923"
 While the contents of the circular can hardly be defined as an official statemen of the policy being pursued In the Corinto affair 1t is nevertheless issued with a view to correcting what the state department of this government conceives to be a popular misconcep- tion of the rights of this government in relation to the American republics recognition of the Monroe principle. There has been much dissatisfaction among officials of the administration over the fact that, barring an inter- view with an unnamed cabinet officer, the government has not defined it's present attitude and thus save news paper and other criticism. It is claimed by these officials that simple peruSal of Monroe's famous message will show concluSively that it does not give the United States any semblance of author ity to interfere between Central Amer ican state and another sovereign state Gin this case Great Britain) in the set tlement of any difficulty they have had.

The President Opposed to Interference.

The President Opposed to Interference.
 Washington, May 1.-So far as can be learned, neither Secretary Gresham nor Minister Guzman have yet received a formal reply to Nicaragua's request that the British fleet should be with drawn from Corinto as a preliminary to the agreement to pay the indemnity de- manded in London within fifteen days.
 The British foreign office usuaily acts with delberation in matters or this kind. Nevertheless, absence or any ln- timation that Great Britain has granted the request is regarded as omlnous, ana the friends of Nicaragua are somewhat discouraged. Rumors have reached here asserting that Nicaragua mas as- sented, and again, stating that she has refused, but the fact appears 10 pc that no authentic information as to the BTU ish conclusion has yet been given. Shouio Great Britan's reply be unfaVoraple' and failing all aid from the United States if is asserted that the only course onen for Nicaragua will be to make the hest terms possible with Great Britain either by concession Of territory or piac- ine itself under British protection. It is said that it would be easier Tor NJ caragua to settle British claims by a slice of her territory, or other conces- sions. than to prolong the present nn- equal contest.
 Those who have talked with President Cleveland represent him as being strong lv opposed to any interference on the mart of the United States, his contention heinz that Great Britain is merely seek ing reparation for injuries to her SUD, iects. and that when she has succeeoso in doing this her forces VIII ae onee oe withdrawn from the country

Trouble Is Feared.

Lynchburg, Va, May IA special from Elkhorn, w. Va, to the News says

 Tomorrow special train will carry the operators of this region to Roanoke to confer with railroad officials. It is really strike against the Norfolk and Western railroad for better shipping rates. Opposition is developing against the introduction of machines into the mines. Guards are watching the trestleS and tunnels on the road and tipples and drift mouths on the works. While there has been no violence, rumors are afloat that cause apprehension. There was much drinking in the meeting at Key stone today that was not conducive to peace. Today there are threats to tie up the railroad. All the empty cars were taken out today. Sunday is set for an immense meeting at Pocahontas

Three Thousand Miners Assembled in Mass
 Meeting at Keystone Yesterday.
A POISON STORY" ABOUT MIR. McBRYDE.
There Is Opposition to the Introduction of Machines Some Apprehension Ex- pressed-The Mining Situation
 in the Illinois Region.

Roanoke, Va, May IA special to the World from Pocahontas says
 There are no new developments in the field today. Everything is perfectly quiet with the probability that nothing of interest will take place before Sunday. All of the West Virginia miners of the Flat Top mines are out, the Southwest company and the Browning mines at this place being the only ones in operation in the field. A committee of strikers will make an appeal to the miners here by printed circulars asking them to stand by the strikers by stopping work, and thus prevent the reduction of 20 per cent posted by the operators. The Southwest company is preparing to open the West mine, which has been closed down for year or two, and to work it along with the East mine.
 Soon after the Norfolk and Western went into the hands of receivers, the Po- cahontas Coal company was succeeded as agents for the Fiat Top operators by CaStner and Curran, and a new adjust ment of the arrangements by which the coal was handled was made necessary. At a meeting of the operators held in Bramwell last week it was decided to ac- cept the proposition offered. This, the operators claim, made it necessary to make the 20 per cent reduction in the rate for mining. A great part of the traffic of the Norfolk and Western is the shipping of coal, and the strike, which has practically suspended operations in the Flat Top region, will seriously affect the traffic of the road if it is kept up.
 The Norfolk and Western officials are not apprehensive of serious trouble, and express the belief that the matter will be adjusted in a short time. In the meantime, precautions are being taken for the protection of the property of the road, and but few empty coal cars are being returned to the mines. James B. Stevenson of the Roanoke Coal and Coke company denies the report in last nights dispatches that the operators are in sympathy with the strikers
