Workers of America, are here today
seeking a conference With the South
western Coal Operators association
with the hope ot reaching an agree

in the Kansas fields. Alexander
Howett, president of the Kansas dis.
trict, said today: IF the operators
refuse to restore the check-off system
the discontinuauce of which caused
the Kansas strike, 10000 coal miners
in districts q and %. involving Mis-
souri,. Oklahoma and Arkansas will
probably be called out by the ma,
tional miners board.
A telegram has been received from
National President Il. l.. Lewis at In
dianapolis demanding the restoration
Of the check-off SYSTEM under penalty
Of an extension OF the strike.
c. S. Keith, president of the South

iuuesting a conference between the ma
5tional miners board and his associa-

PRESIDENT GOMEZ
MISREPRESENTATION
JGnbul Senate iIatiits II allied 10 Pass
The Budget, Issues Decree Making
Effective NiasGon's Budget.

4 Havana, July AS the result Of the
failure of tie Cuban senate to pass the
Cuban budget, President Gomez. at an
early hour this morning, issued a decree
making effective Gov. Magoon's budget
Of l9os-os, amounting to s24,2s5o 900. The
deficiency to cover the cost of the army
and other increased expenses of the re-
public, amounting to nearly $40, 900,
will be supplied by presidential decree.
This will practically repeal the condi-
tons of the last year of the Palma re-
gime, when, in default of a budget the
DEGREES to this same end issued by
President Palma were declared to vio-
late the constitution and percipitated
the revolution of August. 1906.
There is still a possibility that con-
gress may meet tomorrow and pass the
budget in which case the president
may cancel his decree; but this course
is open to the objection that the con-
stitution makes it mandatory that the
budget be accepted before the close of
the fiscal year and the fiscal year ended
at midnight last night.
