LOS ANGELES WITH.

Los Angeles, Calf, March 12.--The

cessor has been postponed to Mon
day, pending the advice of counsel as
to the time the successor should hold
office.

Los Angeles, Calf, March 12.-Los

markable situation in it's political his

in the hands of the city council, forced
to that humiliating recourse by the
published threats of exposure Of his
official and personal record, with the
city council committee recommending
as his successor a man wholly unsat.
isfactory to a great portion of the
city's population, with special elec.
ton but fortnight distant, with two
candidates for mayor on the ticket
and legal questions arising on every
side casting a doubt upon further
procedure, the situation presented was
one of the greatest complexity and
confusion. Mayor Harper has as yet
issued no personal statement of the
reasons for his enforced resignation.
He is reported from one quarter as
saying that he has been indiscreet
and must take the blame. He is said
to have denied to have been in any
way dishonest, declaring he went into
office in 1907 worth 100000 and re-
tires practically without resources. 1t
is claimed by some that the retire
ment of the mayor vitiates the elec-

Concessions.

Philadelphia, Pa, March 12.-The
subcommittee of Anthracite Mine
Workers and the operators viii hold
another meeting this afternoon and
endeavor to reach an agreement to go
into effect at the expiration OF the
present working arrangement. The
fiat refusal of the operators to make
any concessions has greatly depressed
the representatives of the miners.
The miners today will make an an
swer to the operators offer to renew
the present agreement for another
three years. 1t is not improbable that
President Lewis will accept if the
operators consent to make certain
changes in the present working ar
rangement. Judging by the attitude
taken by the operators some time ago
it is not 1ikely that they will concede
the men much.
President Lewis was much pro.
voked today because the operators
yesterday refused TO receive rim ana
associates as officers of the Union, but
merely as representatives of the coal
miners employed in the mines ownen
by the former. "The only agreement
will sign with the operators will be
as T. l.. Lewis, president of the
Union,' hotly declared Lewis. "We
will not be divorced from the organ.

The anthracite miners have rejected
