MILLION COAL MINERS OUT
Continued from frst page.

workers IN the coal industry. with ade.
wage.
Already 3 ajority-certainly 60 per
cent-of the coal owners OF the country
had assented to the governments pro-
posals, and they did not intend that the
resistance Of what he hoped was a
dwindling minority of the employers OF
labor should unduly delay the attain
ment Of an object which we have salts
fed ourselves is consistent with Justice
and the hest interests Of the com
munity."
The Prime Minister ended his speech
with an appeal 10 the miners To allow
reasonable latitude for discussion with
respect 10 fixing the minimum wage for
the different districts, and not 70 insist
on rigid adherence 10 the schedule
adopted by the Miners Federation. He
reminded them that II they persisted in
that course they assumed a terrible re-
sponsibility. although it was obvious
that nothing short of miracle could
avert a national coal strike.
That the government made some prog
ress to-day in the direction Of making
the strike OF short duration is shown by
the fact. disclosed by the official state
ment. that the Northumberland coal
owners, who were among those who re-
jected the governments proposals yes
terday have been persuaded 10 agree
TO the first two clauses OF these pro-
posals, which in effect declare the gov
ernment's belief that there are cases IN
which underground workers are not able
to earn a reasonable minimum wage, and
that the power TO earn such a wage
should be secured by arrangements suit
able to the special circumstances in each
district, adequate safeguards being pro-
vided TO protect employers against abuse
But the Northumberland coal owners
added that they could not consent to
pay minimum wage Irrespective of
ability and disposition to earn such a
wage.
Miners Sure They Have Won.
The miners are confident that the po-
sition taken by the government assures
them ultimate victory Said one of their
leaders:
I'VE have won. Whatever happens,
We have forced the government TO recog-
nize the principle of a minimum wage.
They may be unable to enforce il at
present: there may be hades before the
owners climb down. but sooner or later
they will have to do It,"
Meetings were held by the Coal Min
ers' Federation and the Coal owners
Association late in the morning, but they
apparently only resulted in reiteration
Of the refusal TO bulge from their re-
spective positions which they had taken
up last night.
Meetings Of railroad employees passed
resolutions pledSng themselves to alb
stain from handling troop trains and
coal produced by -unionists.
The delegates OF the miners were ap-
preached early this morning by Sir
George Askwith, the Strike breaker,
With some OF his colleagues OF the Board
Of Trade, and also several labor mem =
bcrs Of the House of Commons, with a
view Of findIng some way out of the
crisis. At the sumo time the coal own
els gathered again at the Foreign Office,
where they conferred with Premier AS
quth and several members of the Cab
int.
Denial is made that the Elder Demp-
ster steamers have cancelled their sail
ings, as reported.

noticed that he began TO act strangely. He
went often to the hospital, hut when the
nurses offered to let him hold the baby In
his arms he always refused.
At first they took this indifference 10 os
merely the nervousness and awe OF

believe that. though Juhas came often, hs
had no love for the baby. but only hate.
since the birth OF the child had caused the
death of his wife.
Juhss went TO the hospital early yester-
day morning and asked that he DO allowed
10 take the baby home with him. He APP
peared TO be much excited, and the nurses.
fearing that his mind was not sound. re-
fused to give him the child. He went back
few hours later. and again his request
was refused. In the Afternoon he appeared
for the third time. He was perfectly calm
and rational in his remarks, and pictured
his loneliness IN such an appealing manner
that he was permitted 10 take his daughter
away with him.
The young butcher evidently had made
his plans before going TO the hospital.
for late yesterday afternoon his brother.

NOTES OF THE GAME

Detroit. Mich, Aug. 2-Jim Delehanty.
who, according TO report. had been rele-
gated to the minors, was very much in
evidence to-day. playing right field In
place OF Crawford. who hurt his ankle
sliding to a base during Thursday s
game.
johnson had Louden struck out in the
Tigers second, Hart missed third
pitch that cut the plate in half.
Jennings salt Sam Crawford up to bat
for Bashang when Detroit's eighth OPEN
ed and Sam famed. Bush and Cobb, the
following hitters, also perished on
strikes. and johnson vas given a big
ovation when he walked TO the bench
after retiring the side.
Moeller, Foster, and Milan, the three
lead-off men. each grabbed of two hits.
Chick Gandil is in the throes of a bat
ting slump, the big first sacker failed
to get a safe drive In to-day's game.
Yesterday II was the same way, and he
only connected for one hit the first day
the teams clashed here.
When Ty Cobb came to bat in the
Tigers sixth he dropped a bunt in front
of the plate. Ainsmith picked up the
bail and shot II to Gandil but the ball
hit Cobb on the shoulder and rolled to
the stands. Needless to say. before the
pill could be recovered the Georgia
peach was on third.
Ainsmith pegged out every would-be
base stealer. getting Cobb when Ty went
down to second in the fourth and Lou
den in the second. After Cobb had been
turned back the Tigers did not try to
take any more liberties with Eddie's
whip.
Hits credited to Delehanty in the
fourth and Stanage in the fifth were
the merest scratches. With little more
hustling by Morgan and Johnson, re-
spectively, both runners would have
been retired at first.
Red Walker. who held down left field
in place of Shanks. put up n good game
and was the original hard luck guy at
the bat. Walker was robbed of at least
two hits by remarkable stops Gil the part
of that little pirate. DOME Bush.
