Order Affects
Those in Pennsylvania and
Central Field
MAY DEVELOP INTO A STRIKE
Prospects For Bituminous Settle
ment Are Bright
Situation in Central Field More En-
courssing Than in Anthracite
Regions.

Chicago, April 1.--Scores OF thou
sands of coal miners quit today in the
anthracite fields of Pennsylvania and
in the central competitive field" the
bituminous portion of the industry. Of
flcially the movement Is a "suspen-
sion" and whether IL is TO develop
into widespread strike depends up
on the outcome of the voting In the
union ranks and of conferences be-
tween the men and their employers
within the next ten days.
Anthracite circles are more appre-
hensive than their bituminous breth-
rem as to the ultimate outcome. This
condition is predicated upon the fact
that there is no definite agreement i'm
medately in sight for the hard coal
men, whereas the bituminous confer
ence at Cleveland adjourned after the
mems representatives had abandoned
practically all the demands except in
creased wages and on this point modi-
fled their terms considerably.
The union men are 10 take a refer
endum ballot at once as 10 whether the
modified terms for the new wage
agreement are to be accepted, and there
is general feeling that the result OF
the ballot will be TO return to work.
Upon the outcome OF the voting in the
central competitive field" will depend
also the basis for new wage scales in
ether sections of the country where
rresent agreements do not expire un-
til May I, or later.
The southwestern mines and Rocky
Mountain states are affected by this
status of affairs. The West Virginia
and Kentucky bituminous fields will
not be greatly affected unless the pres
ent Suspension" becomes q strike.
Nom union labor predominates in these
mines and the men. in previous SINH
lar situations in that industry, have
shown a disposition to continue at
work regardless of the activities of the
union workers.
Approximately four hundred thou-
sand men are directly affected today.
and some three hundred thousand
more. scattered throughout the coal
districts of the country, are watching
the outcome of the suspension" for
its possible effect upon their own
wages and working conditions. IL
probably will be at least thirty days
before all the mines will have resumed
il the referendum votes and confer
ences result favorably

Testing the Minnesota decision by
it's consequences. the governors de
clared that IL was plain that the in
evitable effect of the idea that business
necessities. peculiar location OF lines of
transportation and of commercial
centers can make an act of
a state regulating its local rates a reg
ulation of interstate rates and there
fore invalid, would be the destruction
of the state control over its own af-
fairs.
Government Not Concerned.
In concluding the governors declared
that the rate cases involved no con-
fict between state and federal au-
thority. but a controversy between the
states and the railroads.
mo one contends that congress could
exercise any control over the purely
internal commerce OF the states. IL
vas asserted. THE effect of the de-
eision is not to take power from the
states and leave IL with congress, but
to take power from the states and
leave the railroads free to charge
whatever rates they please in their
traffic within the states. for IL the
states cannot regulate these rates no.

ways easy to find the line which sep

not so hard as IL would be TO trace
the Indirect effects OF regulation by the
states and by congress back and forth

Jurisdictions. The boundary itself Is
plainly marked. We who have to do
with administering the judicial power

.HONDURAN LOAN
OF TEN MILLIONS
OFFER or GROUP OF SOUTHERN
BANKERS Is LIKELY TO
BE ACCEPTED.

WASHINGTON April THE state de-
partment announced today the terms ~
n proposed new loan to the government
Of Honduras. To be financed by the
Whitney Central Trust & Sav1ngJ
Bank OF New Orleans. instead of by
the Morgan group in New York. The
department officials claim that the OBJ
,ectionable features OF the Morgan
proposition have been eliminated by
the Southern bankers and they are
again urging the senate TO act upon
the Honduras loan convention, which
has been before the Foreign Relations
committee for more than year.
The oner of q slO,o6O,cOO loan by the
Morgan group recently was Withdrawn
The Southern bankers. il is announced
have made q tender of g. similar
amount under a now and radically diff
ferent contract. They propose To limit
the first Issuance of bonds 10 $4,000
600 and will require OF Honduras $780,
900 a year to meet the service of the
loan. as compared with s45e,0OO year
under the former contract. The ofil-
cial announcement of the new loan
issued today by the state department
says I'm part:
To Refund Foreign Debt.
THE Southern bankers limit the
uses OF their loan exclusively to the
refunding of the Honduras foreign
debt. and discard the proposals of the
Morgan group TO promote railroad
building and other internal improve
ments and To settle internal debts and
claims pending against the Honduras
Government.
1T was these provisions extending
the uses. of the loan beyond the settle
ment of the foreign debt that aroused
criticism against the Morgan contract.
and the Southern bankers claim that
in eliminating these features they have
presented terms satisfactory to Hon
duras and that acceptance Of the loan
may be expected.
Will Protect Investors.

Even before the New York bankers

bankers. con,i inced of the impossib.lity
of consumniating the New York loan,
began to study the field with a view
to making the loan themselves Ger
tain of them having large interests in
Honduras, IL was essential TO them
that that country be put upon its feet
financially. and they offered, therefore,
to advance "A loan i'm accordance with
