that the strike of the firemen should
not be allowed to interfere with the
work in the mines. They want to
control all workers connected with
the mines. All the firemen in the dis
trict belong to : the United Mine
Workers. Ninety per cent. of the fire.

Schuyll1ill district so per cent. of the
firemen belong to each organization.
The miners want the engineers to
return to work and defer the enforce
ment of their grievances until next
spring when the miners one-year
agreement with their employers
terminates. This sentiment may end
the fremen's strike for the present
and send everybody back to work.
The mine owners feel that they have
the best of the situation at present.

all. The nonunion men who were
brought here are still in the locomo-
tive shops, but are not working.
They are locked in their quarters
and none of the old men at work are
allowed to enter. While the officials
say the men are free to come and go
as they please, they are strangers
here and presumably prefer remain
ing in their quarters until the Reading
Railroad company, has decided what
shall be done with them.

Chinese Leader Thinks His Govern

London, April 3-Dr. Morrison, wir-
Ing to The Times from Pekiu March %,
describes an interview with Ii Hung
Chang in which the famous Chinese
statesman admitted that his policy was
based upon a conviction that Russia
was the only power which China need
fear.
He acknowledged the existence Of
various secret Russo-Chinese agree
ments," says DR.. Morrison, "and de-
clared himself convinced that China
must and would ultimately sign the
Manchurian convention. He asserted
that China was willing to disclose the
terms Of all her agreements with Rus
sia, but that the latter insisted on keep
ing them secret. JOSS
HE admitted that he had no hope
that the present Manchurian agree
ment would satisfy Russia, but he said
he thought II would give China a
respite Of ten or twenty years while
Russia was gorging her prey, during
which the Chinese might strengthen
Themselves for the future.
X II am satisfied that Ii Hung Chang
Il 30 fully committed to the policy of
buying on Russia ut any price that he
10 almost inclined to resent the posi-
bility OF Intervention by other powers"
