Workings of the Anti-Gra1n Specu-
1ation Law in Germany.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-In 1896 the
German government put in force law TO
prohibit speculation in grain on change
in Germany, somewhat resembling the
anti-option bill SO strongly urged in this
country few years ago. Being called
upon for a report of the workings of the
German law, the state department has
procured a report from the United States
consul, Gen. Frank Mason, at Berlin,
which is published ins4he advance sheets
of the report of theSsbureau on foreign
commerce In this report Mr.. Mason says
the law has precisely the intended effect,
namely, the. prevention of speculation in
grain on change, but transactions still
take place privately, and without~leavlng
a record While favoring the agricultural
interests to some extent, it is agreed that
the law has operated badly for Germany
by throwing discredit upon legitimate
trade, and driving it out of the country.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 29.-Late de-
velopments show that the efforts TO bring
about hurried settlement of the big coal
miners strike are still in a chaotic condi-
ton. While there is every surface evil
dence of honest intention on the part of the
mine owners and operators to grant the
more important demands Of the mine work
ers the difficulties in detail in reaching
the basis of settlement grow more con-
fusing At conference tonight in Wilkes
barre, nine foremen were called in to take
part in the discussion. The foremen were
questioned relative to the charge for pow
der, dockage, ETC., indicating that the own
ers were endeavoring to reach common
ground where justice would be found for
each side. So far as can be learned no
definite conclusion was reached.
The general opinion among those in a
position to comprehend the differences is
that the settlement Of the strike is yet
remote. All interests involved, however.
seems to be willing to reach an early settle
ment, and concessions, 1t is understood. will
be readily accorded by both sides in the
controversy. The strike leaders are eau
tious in their movements, but so far as
can be learned have not taken the ground
that trickery was being played. caution
ary notice on which point they had prev
iously sent to all the strikers. 1t has now
apparently settled itself down to a COM
mon sense discussion of the differences.
The strikers made big gains to-day in
drawing out men who have heretofore
continued at work. The Markle employees,
too, tonight sent word to the firm that
arbitration was not to be further consid-
cred. So many of the employees of that
firm in its five mines near Hazleton have
joined the strikers that they concluded
there was no further advantage to be OBJ
tanned by their old agreement that the men
would continue work pending arbitration
of their grievances, which had been pre-
sented to the firm wholly apart from the
general grievances of the United Mine
Workers. This was their escape from the
conditions of the agreement, and they con-
cluded to declare all previous agreements
ended.
The entire region was tranquil to-day,
and General Corbin, in command of the
three regiments of State troops in Schuyl-
kill county. concluded that the soldiers
were only idling away their time, and he
informed the sheriff he would send one of
the regiments home on Monday.
The strike leaders continued their cam
paigning by mass meetings to-day and to-
night, and many who have been working
joined their ranks There We're to-day
more idle mine workers than at any time
since the strike began.
