Man.

Norman. Ok, Oct 26.-Oklahoma I'M

University of Missouri team, IA to 0,

prosecution in the case of Annie Craw-

at piling up circumstantial evidence

Some surprise resulted from the ad-

by the attorneys for the defense. while
DR.. Groetsch was on the stand and
was followed by a correlated admission
that without an autopsy the cause Of
death could not accurately be deter

Situation Grave
in Great Britain
More Industries Affected Today.
Others on Monday.

LONDON, March 16.-The failure OF
the conferences between the striking
British miners and the mine-owners
which have been proceeding for several
days under the presidency of Premier
Asuuith to reach a settlement of the
coal strike has brought Great Britain
to the realization of the serious
position of other industries beside the
one directly affected.
In many places manufacturers have
only kept their works going by ex-
traordinary efforts. They will now no
longer be able to do this. and within
a few days hundreds of thousands
more men and women will be added to
the two million and over already idle.
This morning the Great Western Rail
way Company shut down It's construc-
of employment 10000 skilled mechanics.
The London and Northwestern railway
has given notice that after Monday a
large number of cars will cease run
ming. At Sheffield more than $4,000 men
have beer discharged, and on Monday
it is feared that practically every fac
tory In the town will be closed. Not
only have the passenger services of the
railroads been cut down but the freight
trains have been reduced in number
to such an extent that 1t is impossible
almost to ship any goods at all.
In Lanarkshire, Scotland, this morn

Hunting
Counterfeiters
Fake One-doIlar Bills Dis
tributed Here.

Secret service men are in this city
today on the trail of the clever coun-
terfeiters who are distributing one
dollar bills, the serial number of which
is VEG, $50, 121. A score of these spu-
rious bills have been detected in Broad
street banks, and several merchants
reported having a number of them
paid in their establishments during
the week.
1t was remarked today by a cashier
in a Broad street business house that
the latest counterfeiting bill shows a
remarkable resemblance to the fake
bill of the same denomination which
was detected last November. At that
time the bill was noticed by many, and
it's serial number was V-65,9 12, 1873. The
authorities believe hat this bill Is
the work Of the same counterfeiters
who are now circulating the new fake
bill. The cashier compared 0 bills
and showed that both numbers in each
were simply shifted around. and a
comparison proved that the same num-
bers are being used.
An order was issued today by the
transportation department of the Pub
lie Service Railway warning the con-
ductors of the new spurious bill.

STRIKE
SEEMS SURE
Neither Miners Nor Operators
Show Any Signs of
Yielding.

NEW YORK, March ia suspen-
sion Of work of 1s0, 1000 miners In the
anthracite coal region on April 1 can
only be prevented by a compromise,
but neither the coal operators o the
miners gave the slightest indication
today of yielding from their positions.
The miners have declined to modify
their demands for a twenty per cent.
increase In wages, an eight-hour work
day, recognition Of the union and
other conditions, and the operators
made no other counter proposal that
might pave the way for a compromise.
Members of the anthracite miners
committee conferred today on a state
ment given out by the operators that
1t was impossible to advance wages
unless they could in some manner
realize from the sale of coal produced
a sum equal to the increase In wages.
Should neither side retreat from its
present position, the mine workers In
the hard coal region will, on the ex-
piration of the present working agree
ment, on March 81. lay down their
tools and suspend work until an agree
ment is reached. It is within the
power of the policy committee, at
their meeting on March rs in Cleve-
land. to call a strike in both the hard
and soft coal regions, should the
bituminous men and their employers
fail to reach an agreement at the
Cleveland conference next Wednesday.
