BRITISH EDUCATIONAL BILL.
Answer of the Government to a De-
mand for q Logical Solution.

London. May Sin he course Of a de-
bate in the house Of commons to-day
on the educational BILL David Lloyd
George, president of the board Of trade,
answering the claim Of Former Premier
Balfour, conservative, for logical set
tlement of the educational question
said 1t was easier to be logical in crit
icism than in action. OF four logical
settlements the first was purely secu-
lar, the second frankly denominational
all round, the third a common religious
syllabus, and the fourth was, he mighG
say. that there could not be common
religious syllabus between Protestant
and Catholics. This was the settlement
had in Germany, Quebec and Holland.
It was a recognition that fundamental
differences could not be solved, The
speaker said that he had examined
these various settlements in order to
show why the government had conclud-
ed that the last Of the four was the
only one it could PROFOUND in the cir
cumstances, having regard not merely
to logic but to something stronger,
that is. the facts Of the situation.

SENATOR'S IN CONFERENCE
Substitutes for Amendments to origi-
nal Amendments Too Much for Them.


Washington, May S.-Aside from a
few minutes devoted to the reception
Of the Allison amendments to the rail-
road rate bill and a half hour given to
routine business the senate devoted its
entire session to-day to the Intellectual
consideration of the Elkins amendment
prohibiting common carriers from en-
gaging in mining cGal or in the produc-
ton of other Commodities in competition
with shippers and adjourned at p. m
in q state of great confusion as to the
exact subject before it. The disorder
was due to the fact tnat a number of
substitutes for amendments to the orig
inal amendment were offered. During
the day the senate decided the hereto
fore disputed point that under the
agreement the chair can entertain a
motion to lay on the table. 1t refused,
however, by a vote of 20 to 40 to lay
the Elkins provision on the table. That
amendment and the various modifica-
tions will therefore be in order when
the rate bill is taken up tomorrow.

miners CO BACK TO
The Mines TOMORROW
NO DELAY IN RESUMPTION OF
WORK IN ANTHRACITE
FIELD.

Convention Ratiies Agreement Reached
in New York and Decides that Re-
pair Men Shall Report for Work To-
Day-Resolutions Adopted Condemn
ing the State Constabulary- Mitch
ell Prophecies.
Scranton, Pa, May S-Work will be
resumed by the mine workers through
out the anthracite field Thursday. The
repair men and others necessary to pre-
pare the collieries for general operation
will report for work tomorrow. This
was decided upon at the closing session
of the convention to-day. The agree
ment entered into on Monday in New
York between the operators and the
sub-scale committee were formally rat
ified
A few of the radicals took the floor
when the motion to ratify the Monday
agreement was made, and once more
urged that the suspension be turned
into a strike, but they were hopelessly
in the minority and their remarks were
listened to in silence.
The convention adopted resolutions
condemning the state constabulary and
providing for the mine workers as an
organization taking an active part in
politics in the nomination and support
of legislative candidates.
President Mitchell was vociferously
applauded when he entered the hall.
In response to calls for a speech he
said:
Some are inclined to believe that be-
cause we have not secured an advance
in wages or any improvement in the
conditions Of employment we have not
accomplished anything. | want to say
that believe you have taken the most
movement.
''You have secured what you have
never before secured-a signed agree
lnent with the operators. 1t Is an agree
ment which Is not entered into with
the United Mine Workers, but with the
officers of that organization; they have
signed an agreement with your nation
al president and with your district
presidents.
Il am convinced that, If the United
Mine Workers maintain the strength
and solidarity Of their organization,
three years hence the railroad presi-
dents will ask you to make an agree
ment with them, rather than that you
should be forced to ask them to make
an agreement with you.
Last summer made tour through
this region. 1 urged the mine workers
to come back into the organization, AT
that time there were only $4,000 MEM
bers. At the close of that tour there
were 10000 members In the organiza-
tion. Had that tour not been made
there would have been a reduction in
wages, according to reliable informa-
tion that have in my possession. My
| information is that the railroads were
ready to increase the working day from
nine to ten hours; to require the en-
| gineers to work seven days in the week
and to require the firemen to work
twelve hours instead of eight. If this is
true, then we have won a victory.
'You owe it to yourselves, to your
families, to your class and to your
craft to be loyal and true to this or
ganization which has done so much for
you"

modest applause.
The record closed with a tribute to
Mrs Sheldon, the greatly beloved home
secretary, whose death occurred last
December. Many appreciative mes
sages had been received from near and
from far, and were embodies in this
report. Then followed the question,
''What would her message be to us?"
1t would be very like her to say;
when the great silence falls at last on
me,
Let me not leave, to pain and sadden
thee,
| A memory Of tears,
But pleasant thoughts alone.

OF hands upheld and trials rendered
! less
The unselfish joy, which is to helpful
ness
