COAL MINERS FORGED
 TO ABANDON WORK
Oh:) Operators ard Union Fail to
 Reach New Ways AgrecmlE:;.

Chicago, April 1.-Nearly fifty thou sand Ohio bituminous coal miners were forced into idleness today and thirty-eight thousand Pennsylvania miners may be thrown out of em- ployment Friday because of the fail- ure of the recent Chicago conference between the operators and officials of the United Mine Workers of America to reach a new wage agreement to take the place of the one which ex- pired last midnight.
 Pending negotiations for a new agreement, coal miners in Indiana, H. linois and Iowa will continue at work.
 Most of the mines in the Ohio dis trict suspended operations last mid- night in accordance with orders is- sued Monday by the operators. The operators in the central Pennsylvania district announced last night that un- less the old agreement is renewed be- fore Friday all of the mines in that district will be closed and work sus- pended indefinitely.
 The agreement, which expired yes- terday, was made at a joint confer ence of miners and operators at C1eve- land in 1912. Several weeks ago a joint conference was held at Phila- delphia to make new agreement to take effect today.
 The situation in Ohio is aggravated by a mine-run law, passed by the Ohio legislature which will go into effect May IS. Enactment of the law was strongly opposed by the opera- tors.

DANGER OF FRESHET
 IS LESSENED DAILY
Reports States Waters of Connecti- cut River Are Abating and No
 Flood Is Likely This Spring.

Springfield, Mass, April 1.-Danger of a destructive freshet' of the Con- necticut river is lessening daily &C., cording to the reports of snow and ice conditions up the valley.
 Except for six or eight inches of snow over the extreme upper portion of the watershed, the river valley is bare, although some snow remains in the remote woods. The Connecticut is open at many places as far north as We'll River, Vt.,. and what ice re- mains is badly rotted and is breaking off gradually without causing seri- ous damage.
