ENGLISH STRIKE
Referendum Of Miness-ts
Disappointing in Result.

London, April 3.-The returns Of the
miners ballot In regard to a resump-
ton of work Is as yet incomplete,
but unofficial reports give the vote in
various ways. So far as known up
to the present 10000 votes have been
and 10000 for the resumption Of
work. A feature everywhere has been
the immense number Of men who alb
stained from voting.
The vote, which Is n referendum,
Is to decide whether the miners are
to accept or reject the minimum wage
bill. Hopes had been entertained that
q big vote would be polled in favor
of the bill.
Many of the men who voted for the
bill have already gone back to their
positions underground. 1t is estimated
that 10000 men are ut work.
A majority of the labor members of
parliament are surprised and dlsap-
pointed with the returns. The miners
federation, however, will not declare
a continuance of the strike unless
there should be a two-thirds vote IN
favor of such a curse.
The coal strike was charged with a
loss of 81, 600 In revenue to the gov
eminent when Chancellor Lloyd George
introduced the budget in the house of
commons. The loss to the ~postofice
service he estimated was 100000.

ROUSSEAU'S VIEWS ON LOVE
Newly Discovered Letter Written to 4
Friend Of the Philosopher
Has Been Found.

A remarkable autograph letter OF
Jean jacques Rousseau, showing IN a
vivid light his views on the subject OF
love, has Just been made public IN
connection with the Rousseau centen-
airy. and is considered by the critics
TO be an important addition to our
knowledge Of the great philosopher.
The letter WAS written in 1859. the
year In which 'Nouvelle Heloise" was
published. and 10 addressed to Dsleyre,
Comte de C~roiseul's secretary, who
had Just become engaged to be mar
Red. It runs as follows:
Dear Deleyre: You have made an
idiotic mistake, for II you continue to
love = promise IL s%uperhuous. while
II you cease loving It Is useless, and
you may cause yourself the greatest
embarrassment. But perhaps your
promise has been paid for in spot
cash. II 10. I have nothing more to
a y You have signed It with your
blood. That 10 almost tragic. How
ever, I do not know that tho ink
wherewith one writes makes any diff
ference in the faith Of tho person who
signs. quite see that love makes
children Of philosophers. Just as II
does Of the rest OF US.
without being your friend, my
dear Deleyre, I have q friendly feeling
for you, and I I'M alarmed at your
present condition. For heavens sake,
consider that love is only an Illusion,
and that one sees nothing as 1t really
IL when one loves"

BLAZE WAS IN

Firemen Play the Hose to
Accompaniment of Accordian

Sparks from an open chimney in
a house at 754 Smith street owned
by John Hanson, set fire to the roof
and an alarm was sounded from box

house is the last one within the city

When the firemen arrived the roof
was ablaze. After fifteen minutes
work the fire was extinguished. The
damage about 800, vas covered by

ladder apparatus was used this morn
Ing for the first time since the acct
dent on Tuesday night.

siding in the house discovered O'Hara
with his instrument and lay in wait
for him when he came down.

honest would impute evil motives to him.
Mr.. Bliss was incapable of conduct such
as Mr.. Archbold imputes to him..
l do not for one moment believe that
Mr.. Bliss made any such remarks to Mr.
Archbold as Mr.. Archbold says. For ex-
ample, Mr.. Archbold states thai he and
the late II. H. ROBBERS visited me at the
White House and that I then remarked
to them that there had been some criti-
clsm about campaign contributions This
is a falsehood. Neither or that occasion
nor on any other occasion was one word
said either by me to Mr.. Archbold or by
Mr.. Archbold to me about campaign con.
tributions. Mr.. Rogers and Mr.. Archbold
called on that occasion to protest against
any government action being taken against
the Standard OIL mpan This was one
Of a number Of calls which Mr.. Archbold
made on me to try to prevent action
against the Standard OH company by the
bureau of corporations under the depart
ment of the interior and by the depart
ment of justice.
II Mr.. Archbold had really believed that
Mr.. Bliss had told him thai 1 knew of any
contribution by the Standard Oil or had
felt that he was jeopardized by having re-
fused to make a contribution or was en-
titled to immunity for having made one
he would certainly in one OF those calls
have said as much. He never preached
Rne subject. he merely said over and
C7er again that Mr.. Garfield and MI. H
K. Smith were treating him unfairly, and
he denied again and again that the Stand
ard Oil ever got any rebates or ever did
anything that was not absolutely proper
And he would keep on with these denials
ever when I would tell him that I had in
my possession reports from the bureau of
corporations and the secretary of the in
terror which conclusively showed that the
Standard Oil had been taking rebates on
the largest possible scale.
Inasmuch as Mr.. Archbold did not tell
the truth In his interview with me, 1 have
no doubt that he does not tell the truth
about the man who is dead and who, liv-
ing, he never dared to accuse as he now
accuses him. Neither Mr.. Bliss nor any
one else ever suggested or limited at, in
any shape or form. that / would take or
refrain from taking any action In connec-
ton with any corporation because Of any

WILSON To PLAN
FOR CAMPAIGN
Candidate Will Meet Acting
Chairman to Arrange Program
spea.dI by United Press wyrs

LpeNSas W cHFtoh IfbSS W.T.
Sea Girt, Aug. "a: - Woodrow
Wilson's speaking campaign for the
presidency will be at least partially
arranged Monday forenoon in New
York, according to the announce
ment made by the candidate here
today.
Il have arranged to take break
fast with Acting Chairman McAdoo
early Monday morning" said Cover
MOI Wilson, land Immediately after
wards to meet as many members of
the campaign committee as we can
get together for the purpose of de-
Gliding what speeches / shall make.
Il am not going to make any eX-
tended stamping tour. We will SIM
ply decide OF Monday the amount
of speaking l am to do and the
places l am to visit. There will not
be any large number of speeches
away from New Jersey. 1t is the
general judgment that this is the
most effective way to conduct this
campaign.
From my general correspondence
l find that a great majority of the
people believe that l ought not to
make any great number of speeches,
as they believe that the country is
tired of stamping tours. The argu-
ments on the other side of this ques-
tion come from men who are active
in politics and who are Mortified
that the usual program will not be
followed.
MY private opinion is that extern
5ive stumping tours are not the most
effective methods of conducting a
campaign. l may make a consider
able number of speeches, but as for
going about and ~canvassing the
country, | have no such Intention.
You must also remember that / am

keep in touch with the business of
