The miners, members of the Uni
ted Mine Workers of America, de-
clared the walkout was not a strike.
but merely a suspension of work
pending an arrangement between
themselves and the operators of
wage scale for another year, the old
scale having expired with the month
Of March. The men demand an in
crease of pay in some instances of
cents a ton and in other instances
more and certain changes in work
ing conditions.
Confidence was expressed by the
operators that there will be no gen
eral coal famine, large supplies Of
fuel having been secured in antici-
patton of the walkout.
While the miners predicted the
suspension would be cut short by a
prompt signing of wage scales, some
of the operators maintained the
mines might be kept closed for a
month or so days or longer.
The conditions in the various
states were as follows:
Illinois-Nine hundred mines clos
ed and $4,000 miners quit work at
called for this week in Chicago; OPP
10 cents a ton, which would mean
an ANIMAL increase in expenses in IL
linois of $14.000.00O; possibility of
a four-months' shutdown; two
months supply of coal on hand; no
immediate coal famine to Chicago in
dustries
Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma and
Arkansas, comprising the South
western interstate fields - Twenty
five thousand miners quit. Early
settlement hoped for, but miners as
sert they have fund of $500. 900 to
draw on
Ohio-All miners ordered to quit.
State leader declaring it is not a
strike. but merely suspension. At
Lorain, Ohio, one steel plant shut
down and threw out 1000 workmen,
the managers announcing short
age of coal.
The first victory of the men came
in an announcement from Brazil,
Ind, the center of the Indiana block
coal district, where it was announc-
ed the mems demands for a Ave-
cent increase would be granted.
Reviewing the situation President
Lewis said:
When the national executive
board adjourned We all felt that the
prospect was very satisfactory for
the miners. In many districts it is
now only question of the miners
and operators sitting down together
and talking over business.

WILL
DESTROY NAVIES

Glenn H. Curtiss, the aviator, be-
lieses that the day of Dreadnaughts
and monster battleships is past and
that by the time the next great war
breaks out the huge battleship Flor
ida and the other costly floating forts
of this and other navies will be use
less.
Swarms of light, swift aeroplanes,
he says, will replace the tardier, more
sluggish ships of the sea, and will
swarm like deadly insects over the
old-fashioned navies, dropping their
terrible poison in the shape of picric
acid bombs before the unwieldy men
of war are able to retaliate. More
than a thousand aeroplanes can be
launched for the price of a single
battleship, he says.
81 was much interested in the
launching of the Florida the other
day said Mr.. Curtiss in New York.
81 heartily subscribe to the prepare
lions we are making to defend our
country from all aggression. But ]
do not believe that We are going
about it in the right way in view Of
modern conditions.
"Battleships have been impressive
engines Of war, but their day is
practically done. It is as sure as
death and taxes that the airship will
supersede the great floating structure
of steel.
Imagine, for instance that a hostile
fleet he at anchor twenty miles off
New York. Suppose it consists OF
some of the more powerful of modern
vessels like the Florida. Before II
could begin to shell the city our feet
of aeroplanes would start from the
New Jersey flats. Suppose we have
only 200 of them. Each is able to
carry about 200 pounds of bombs.
