PARIS. March I1.-That the former

turning TO Mexico as the savior or his
country is shown by the fact that before
he left Cap d'Ail he went TO Monte Carlo
for consultation with the celebrated
palmist. Montefiorc. The oX-presidcnt
was so pleased with the predictions OF
this soothsayer that he invited him to
the Eden hotel the next day for full
days consultation.
Disz exhibited the keenest Interest in
the predictions and expressed the greatest
satisfaction when told that he would live
Al least fifteen years. during which time
ne would make a greater Mexico than
ever. He seemed deeply impressed when
told that he would again become presi-
dent of Mexico by next September; that
MS few months banishment was due
solely TO the mistakes of his too ardent
supporters. To the palmIst Diaz admitted
having written his followers In Mexico

Strike in Germany.

BERLIN. March 1.-THE coal strike
went into effect in the Westphalian coal
miTes today when about so per cent OF
the $40. 900 miners employed there obeyed
the call OF their leaders to cease work.
In some districts the cessation OF work
was practically complete, while in others
only from IL TO so per cent OF the men
struck. Large forces Of police are on
duty everywhere throughout the region.
Strikers, however generally are peace
able and only two isolated attacks Oh
nonuniou miners have been reported,
The conflict is quite as much a struggle
between the leaders OF the rival socialist
and ponsociaIlst unions as between the
mine owners and their employees. The
leaders of the nonsociallst Christian union
are 50 far holding their followers well in
hand
The success Of the strike will ldepcnd
upon how far the feeling Of solidarity
with the striking comrades OF the socialist
miners union is carried.
