PUBLIC PAID FOR
WAGE INCREASE
Hard Coal Prices Scared After
Strike Settlement.
INCREASE OF rs CENTS A TON
Hard Coal Companies Increased
Wages $4,000, ooo-Price Of Anthra-
cite To Consumers Was In
creased $13,450,ooo.

Washington.-Hard coal companies
increased the wages of their employees
100000 a year by the strike agree
ment OF last May and increased the
price of anthracite to consumers 3d.
100000, according to a report based on
an investigation by the Bureau of La
Dor, submitted to the House
The report is the result of an in
vestigation conducted in response to
a House resolution asking for the
elements of cost and profit included
in the present high price of anthra-
cite"
An average increase of 26 cents a
ton in wholesale coal prices was dis
covered to have been made since the
strike agreement of last May. In
spite of the fact that the workers
benefited about $4,000 900 in increased
wages during the year, the report adds
that the recent increases in prices
have been more than sufficient to com
pensate fully those companies whose
costs of production have increased
most rapidly during recent years, and
at the same time have very greatly
increased the profits of those COM
panies, of whom there are at least
several whose costs of production
either decreased or remained station
airy during the same period"
Coal for domestic use increased a
fraction over 81 cents a ton, that on
pea coal and the smaller steam sizes
10 cents a ton. These figures were
based on comparison of net receipts
by the operators after the agreement
of May last with their receipts dur
ing the same months, June to Septem-
Der, 1911. OF the more than $13000,-
600 gained by the operators after the
strike agreement, $10,90O,00O was de-
rived from general increase in prices,
and about s2,55O,OOO from the sus-
pension of April and May discounts,
while in addition limited number of
operators are reported to have IRE
ceived very large sums through the
sale Of coal at premiums made pos
sible by the shortage of shipments"
incident to the strike.

MANY PERISH IN HOTEL FIRE
The Building, Which Was An Old
One, Was a Mass OF Flames
Before the Firemen
Arrived.

Omaha, Neb.-Fire destroyed the
Dewey Hotel, at Thirteenth and Far
nam streets, at least a score and pos
sibly more persons losing their lives.
The register of the little hosiery was
burned, and the names of those who
died in the flames probably never will
be known. Only four bodies of vic
tins have been recovered These
were of persons who either jumped
from windows or who died from ex-
posture or injuries.
The fire occurred at an hour when
few persons were in the vicinity and
the interior of the building, which
was an old one, was mass of flames
before the firemen arrived. Not less
than so persons were sleeping in the
building and estimates run as high
as 10 At least 80 are known to have
escaped. Many of them were scantily
clad and they were taken either to
the Emergency Hospital or to hotels.
About third of the guests were Ne
braskans who had come to the city
to attend the automobile show. Most
of them had rooms near the two exits
and, so far as known, all escaped to
the street
Owing to the infammable nature of
the structure, the heat was intense
and the fremen did not get the flames
under control for several hours, when
the interior had collapsed and fallen
into the basement. Here, beneath
hundreds of tons of debris, lie the
bodies of the victims, and it may
require two days TO remove them from
the death cellar Until this debris
has been removed the number of dead
will not be known

WILL PRACTICE ON THE BORDER.
U. S. Government Authorities Becom-
ing Convinced the Mexican Pro-
VisionaI Government Will Be
Able To Maintain Itself.

hington.-Although the United
States troop trains are still rolling
southwark, converging on Galveston,
it is evident that the heart had gone
out of the movement, under the infiu-
ence of the growing conviction that
the provisional government in Mexico
is going to be able to maintain itself,
which seemed to be the general tenor
of the reports to the State Department
from its consular officers in Mexico.
Neither the Mexican embassy here
nor the State Department has heard
any information from the Huerta gov
eminent in Mexico City of its an
nounced intention to send Senior
Emilio Rabasa 10 the United States as
ambassador to succeed Senior Calero
who resigned his post early this year
This circumstance creates no sur
prise, as the present administration is
on the eve of retirement, and il is
taken for granted that if President
Huerta has decided to send Senior
Rabasa here, he will make inquiry
later to ascertain If his representative
is persona grata to the administration
with which he will have to deal.
Sonora HoIds Off.
Although quiet reigns in Sonora, that
state has given notice that it will not
recognize the Huerta regime until it
has demonstrated its ability to con-
troll the situation throughout the re
public. The governor of Sonora, who
has that state under full control, was
ordered by the state Congress to notify
the federal capital that for the pres
ent Sonora will remain a spectator,
and when government is establish
ed and the state government is Off
cially notified it will recognize the
new order.
AS the diplomatic branch of the gov
eminent has settled down to an atti-
tude of quiet observation Of develop
ments in the Southern republic, with
little expectation OF requiring the
services of the Army, except for the
purpose of a border patrol, to inter
cept fugitive bands or raiders cross
ing the line the War Department off
Gals have turned their attention to
the academic value of the experiment
in mobilization of the Army.
Practice Marches.
Already they are planning some
practice marches, perhaps from Gal
weston as far inland as Leon Springs,
Texas, and the strategists of the War
College have seized with ayidity unon
this opportunity practically to test
their theories of the brigade forma-
ton. The Navy, too, is falling back
into its old peace routine, as evidenced
by the resumption by the captains of
the battleships stationed in Mexican
waters of their periodic target prac-
tice.
