between coal mine operators and
mine workers arranged with view to
settling the strike il tho southern
Colorado coal fields. was ended off,
cially without result Thursday.
Secretary of Labor William B. Will

Joint letter to both sides containing

and the recommendation that. pending
the decision of the board of arbitra-
tration, work be resumed at the mines.

proposition under consideration.
News of the arrest of Secretary E.
l.. Doyle of the United Mine Workers
of America, received soon after the
coal operators and the mine workers
went into conference in Governor Am
mons office Wednesday morning,
changed the whole trend of the con-
ference and developed the fact that
the three striking miners, Archie AL
lison, David Hamman and T. X. Evans.
are under the control of the union Of
ficials.
When the conferees reassembled for
the Wednesday night session the strik-
ing miners announced that the confer

gram ordering Doyle's release. and.
when General Chase telephoned an
hour later that he had turned Doyle

dragged desultorily, was resumed.
Governor Ammons based his order

Lots of folks want to put pepper

hurts him, but pepper is stimulating
enough to overcome the effect Of the
cold. And the funny thing Is that you
don't taste the pepper at all. The ice
