Trouble is brewing between the various
sections of the population in the prov

burning and looting.

PRHSBYTERIANS REVISE, AS TOO
PROFOUND. THEIR CATEcHISM

PITTSBURGH, March 22.-Acting on
the belief that the catechism now in
use in Presbyterian Sunday schools
throughout the country is too profound
for children between the ages of s
and IA years, a special committee of
the general assembly of the Presby-
terrain Church is in session here pre-
pairing the draft for a new explana-
ton of the faith. The work is almost
completed, and is declared to be much
better than the book now in use. 1t
will be submitted to the meeting of the
general assembly which will begin in

REJECTS DEMANDS
OF COAL MINERS
British Premier's Action May
Prevent Early Settlement
of Strike.

LONDON, March 22.-Premier As
quith in the House of Commons this
afternoon refused to accept the miners
amendment to the minimum wage bill
providing a minimum of $1.25 and &c
cents as the daily wage for men and
boys, respectively. Enoch Edwards
labor member of Parliament and presi-
dent of the Miners Federation of Great
Britain, Immediately announced that
the premier's rejection of the miners
amendment closed the door to an i'm
mediate settlement Of the strike.
The political crisis which suddenly
arose out of the British miners strike
is over, but the greater industrial
crisis is still far from its end. The
miners may refuse to return to work
and the government viii then be faced
with the necessity Of taking those
other and different measures fore
Swallowed by the premier yesterday
and which are believed to mean ade-
quate protection for those men desir-
ing , return to work.
Despite the decisions of the unions,
there is already. particularly in Scot
land, a steady trickling of the miners
back to the pits. Even with a general
resumption, however, the mines will
not be in working order before Easter,
and some of the smaller ones which
ave been flooded win never be re-
opened.
In the meantime starvation stares
the Industrial population of the coun-
try III the face. The funds Of the
trades unions are running low, and in
some places this weeks payment of
ont-of-work benefit will be the last.
The work of relieving the distress is
getting beyond the means of the local
charities, and demands are now being
made on the government to AXE it UP.

OPERATORS DENY MOVE TO
ENGAGE STRIKEBREAKERS.

NEW YORK, March 22.-While the
anthracite operators regard a suspen-
sion OF work in the coal region on April
l as almost q certainty, they say that
they are making no toward en-
gaging strikebreakers to go to the coal
fields. The railroad operators In a
statement say that the reports that
the operators are now engaging out
side labor against a possible suspension
or strike. have no foundation. in fact,
as far as the principal operators are
concerned.
Retail dealers assert that their yards
are bare of coal and that they are
having difficulty in obtaining it
A meeting of the railroad operators,
1t is understood, will be held here prob
ably next week to consider the situa-
ton, but whether they will submit a
counter proposition to the miners is
problematical.
