LONDON is ANXIOUS
Little Spark in Belfast May
Lead to Much Combustion.
tBy Gable to The Tribune.

by NaDIe 10 Inc lIlDuue
London. Feb. s.-The Home Rule meet
ing in Celtic Park, Belfast. to-day. is
being anticipated with extraordinary
eagerness. Not even in the days Of Par
nell has any Irish political demonstra-
tion aroused such intense excitement.
This is largely accounted for by the un-
precedented efforts made by the Dublin
Castle authorities TO prevent breach Of
the peace.
Belfast to-day is an armed city. For
days past troops have been pouring into
the Ulster capital. and now $500 foot
soldiers and squadron Of cavalry are
on the spot London newspapers devote
a large portion OF their space TO photo
graphs of troops marching through the
streets of Belfast TO their quarters.
No serious rioting is anticipated as
the Orangemen at the eleventh hour
have received instructions not to inter
fere with the demonstration. In Celtic
ranks. however there are elements in
the populat tOn which may get beyond
control \ very little spark will be re-
uuired 10 set all this combustible ma
terial alight, and if the fire be once
started it may take alarming proper
tions
THE Daily Chronicle" this morning
admits that its forecast Of the Home
Rule bill was Inaccurate in so far as the
statement that the Irish Parliament
would be invested with the control Of
the customs is concerned

COAL STRIKE LOOMS UP
British Owners and Miners Dis
agree on Minimum Wage.

London. Feb The probability of a ma
tionaI coal strike and complete dislocatior
Of the industry has been greatly increased
by the failure OF the national conference OF
the coal owners and aiirerg to effect set
tlement. During the carly part Of January
ballot of the Miners Federation was
taken on the question Of declaring a gen.
eral strike on March !. The ballot indi-
Gated that AS. sol men were for strike
and 1921 were against tn" strike.
The conference Of he coal owners and
miners was preceded 1y meetings Of the
representatives Of the coal miners in Great
Britain extending over many days. a,
which a minimum wage scale for all under
ground workers was formulated according
TO the varying conditions Of the districts
but providing that nowhere should the
wage be less than I'VE shillinEs (Sl 25l a
day. These demands wcie discussed at a
prolonged session to-day, with the result
that the coal owners adopted a resolution
declaring
The owners arc prepared to consent 10 the
proposition that each person in their en-
nloNmcnt should receive a fair days wage
Tor days work. ont are convinced that
payment I'm proportion to the amount OF
work performed is ne only rule that can
be successfully applied in tho case Of coal
setters. They are aware that there are
cases in which, owing tC difficulties aris-
ing in consequence of exceptional Condi-
tons in the working place. man, while
doing his best, Is unable TO earn what he
would under ordinary CiI CumStanCes. In
such cases the owners recognize the neCes-
sity for special consideration, and are will
ing 10 discuss with the wCrkmen the means
10y which this can be dScortaincd.
Tho resolution concluded with rcscrva-
tion Of the right 20 continue the negotia-
tiOnS.
The miners replied expressing regret a;
the refusal of the coal owners to accept
this principle OF a minimum wage, and
adding: We know that there can he no
settlement Of IN" present dispute unless
this principle is agreed tC."
Prior 10 the adoption Of the resolution
by the coal owners .he representatives OF
the South Wales owners withdrew from
the conference on the ground that tho
agreement with their workmen still had
three years TO run, and = threat 10 strike
unless minimum cage is conceded was
tantamount to notification that the agree
ment would be broken

RUSSIAN MINISTER HECKLED
Douma Asks Why Editor Of
"Novoe Vremya" Is To Be Tried.

St Petersburg Feb The case inyolv-
iur the name Of Gregory Rasputin. re-
puted holy man and mystic, who is WELD
ing immense influence a court, has grown
20 hc an affair Of national importance. The
pouma tonight adopted an urgent inter-
relation addressed 10 tho Minister OF the
Interior as 10 why he had applied illegal
pressure on editors in St Petersburg and
Moscow. ordering them 10 print nothing
concerning Rasputin, and on what grounds
he had confscated editions OF the "NOvoe

The Interpolation introduced in the
Douma rcproduces an open letter addressed
10 the Holy Synod by the religious writer

that the criminal tragi-comedy has been

WANT GRADYS SEAT FILLED
Tammany Senate Needs Vote
No Dix Appointments Yet.
fBy Telegraph 10 The Tribune. J

Albany. Feb 1T has been practically
decided 10 hold special election 10 fill the
yacancv in the senate caused by the death
of Senator Grady. Governor Dix, who re-
turned from Lake George to-day looking
much improved I'm health. said that he and
his legal adviser Seymour w. Van SAINT
voord. had been in consultation iarsc part
Of the dav over the law affecting such an
election.
Assemblyman Martin G.. McCue. from the
10TH New York District, has already an
rounced himself as candidate to succeed
Senator Grady. and it is known that A.
semblyman James A. Foley, OF the i2th
District. also has ambitions.
Governor Dix said this afternoon that
later in the week he might be ready 10
announce the four appointments he mas
vet TO make They include Public SER
vice Commissioner for each Of the two dis
tricts a Health officer OF the Port OF New
York and a Superintendent Of Insurance..
The Governor said he had not heard
whether William Church Osborn had
agreed 20 accept the state chairmarship.
There has been some gossip among the
politicians here that Murphy, OF Tammany,
who at first seemed overjoyed 10 take Mr..
Osborn as chairman. had begun 10 get
cold feet on the proposition because Mr..
Osborn was "highbrow.'
No good reason exists, so far as most
Of the Tammany men here can see, for
any apprehension. They declare Murphy
has the state committee entirely and abso-
lutely in his costrol. what could mere
chairman however high his brow ana
ideals. do against the wishes Of the boss?

CHURCHILL IN BELFAST
British Minister Arrives for
Great Home Rule Meeting.
TROOPS PATROL STREETS
Bagpipes, Drums and Flies Tell
Of Popular Excitement-Dan-
ger of Trouble Lessons.

Belfast Feb. 7.-Bagpipes and drum and
fife bands are making music in the Ulster
capital to-day, telling OF the presence OF
three thousand infantry, a squadron OF
cavalry and some companies of the Army
Service Corps assembled to prevent riot
and bloodshed tomorrow. when Winston
Spencer Churchill. John +. Redmond and
Joseph Devlin deliver Home Rule speeches
in Celtic Park. II the Orangemcn try to
break up the meeting or obstruct the gath
cring OF the audience they will find that
they have undertaken a task they cannot
perform.
A. matter of fact. however, the people
of Belfast as whole expect no such at
tempt. The talk of the last few days Is
regarded as bluff. When riots occur i'll
Belfast they are never preceded by talk'
but arise spontaneously, in most instances
out Of scmc Orange celebration, small IN
cidents acting like sparks to set the blood
OF the demonstrators on fire and resulting
in widespread violence before preventive
measures can be taken.
These riots generally have begun with
an invasion OF the Catholic quarter Of the
town and the wrecSug Of the homes and
property Of Catholics. who constitute about
one-fourth OF the city's population With
the lighting blood Of the ONeills and the
O'DonncIls In their veins. ii would be too
much TO expect that the Catholics would
meekly bear such treatment. They accept
the challenge and soon put the Orangemen
themselves on the defnsive. So the riots
continue until both sides arc exhausted
There are no such demonstrations to-
night The Catholics are completely out Of

Home Rulers. organized the meeting, and

who arc thoroughly disciplined. have been
warned by their leaders 10 avoid the meet

The only danger is that halted in their
effort to prevent the Churchill Home Rule
demonstration. Unionists may try TO wreak
vengeance on the Catholics by attacKine
them in their homes on the night Of the
meeting or on subsequent nights This
danger will he acute unless the govern
