 Tt Is amazing what fine effects the Egyptians managed to produce from the limited material at their disposal.

boat. They took Miss Willis off, and
started back to the south bank. AS the
boat neared the shore it filled and went

Des Moines, Ia, April 2.-Des Moines
and the entire state of Iowa are con-
fronted with coal famine as result
of the lockout which closes every mine
in the state and that section of Missouri
included in the territory embraced by
the affected district. Not pound of
coal is to be had for sale in Des Moines
and other cities of the state are similar
ly affected. Local dealers Friday placed
double rush orders with Kansas CITY,
Omaha, st. Joseph and other neighbour
ing cities, but it is only possible to Sc
cure it in limited quantities. Unless the
situation is eased within the next three
weeks manufactures will be compelled
to shut down for want of fuel
There has been no attempt on the part
OF the operators and miners to get to-
gether since the split in the conference.
Leading operators say they will be pre-
pared to supply the demand for a long
while yet and that they have no thought
of compromising outside the terms pro-
posed and once rejected. On the other
hand the miners are equally as persis-
tent. They say the situation must re-
main as it is for period of at least 60
days, at the end of which time negotia-
tions for an adjustment will eithef be
made or the strike will be continued
with the help of the National United
Mine Workers of America.

stated that they had counter proposal

the miners would waive all concessions
made them regarding free Oil to day

would rescind their demand for reduc-

refused, and after considerable discus

adjournment was taken until evening.
On reconvening the miners stated they
were willing to withdraw their demand
for last years scale in the northern dis
trict, and the joint scale committee met
again Friday to reconsider minor mat
tiers. Thus all danger of strike has
