z dealt and bid a diamond, because
he has not the tops I'm hearts. Many
persons would regard this as a sound
heart bid. because they argue nat the
holes in the heart suit are filled up by
the diamonds. But the tayer who bids
hearts on only five in suit IL supposed
to have n or more tricks outside. and
II IL Illogical to reckon cards twice over (:
once as the essential outside tricks and
once more as filters for the imperfect
trump suit,
A thought four to the ten would stop
the diamonds, and with eight tricks out
side he took "A chance AT no trump. Y
passed, but B took \ out with two
spades.
Now n bids three hearts. as the only
defence that has a chance, nj A went
right along with the no trumper. bid
ding three on the strength OF his part
ner's protection in spades.
This brings us to the interesting point.
which is VS. failure to draw the correct
inference from his partners rebid. If
n held the tops in hearts. he would IN "
bid that suit in the first place. as in the
hand before this one, in which y starts
with his major suit, spades,
But rs original bid was a diamond.
II Is true that A has overCalled both
suits with no trumps. but that should
not interfere with Us inference That the
diamonds are the stronger suit. so far
as trick taking is concerned, In rs hand.
, The conventional rule for the beginner
TO remember IL that the player who bids
"A minor suit the first time and a major
suit the second, differs from showing the
major suit first and the minor suit next
In This important particular.
If the major suit In bid first, II has
sure tricks In II, but there are more sure
tricks in the minor suit that is shown
later. II the minor suit Is shown first,
there are no sure tricks in the major
suit that Is shown later, al only one.
In other words, the bidding shows thai
Il has no tops in hearts. hut he has In
diamonds therefore what 4 holds Is
only a stopper in diamonds, but il is
sure tricks IN hearts. Failing TO realize
this. A led The hearts because he had
more OF them and A made four by cards

FAVOR UNIFORM RULES
FOR SAFETY IN MINES
Committee Proposes Their
Adoption in Metal Min
ing States.

WAsHINGroN, Sept. 1S-A publication

lust been issued hy the Bureau OF Mines
under the title Rules and Regulations
for Metal Mines" The authors are w.
r. ingalls,. j. parke Charming, James
Douglas, James X. finlay, and John
Hays Hammond The committee that
prepared the rules was originally APP
pointed at a meeting Of the American
Mining Congress, At Denver. col, IN
November, 1906, and It's object was the
drafting of a modern law governing
auarrying n metall!fcrous mining
which could he recommended to the sew
eral States for adoption, In the hope
that the passage of such a uniform law
by the mining States would tend 10
lower the humble OF fatal and serious
accidents.
When the committee took up It's work
II found that Colorado, Missouri, Mon
tana and New York were the only States
that had enacted mining laws OF broad
scope applicable to other than coal mines.
California, Arizona, Idaho, Kansas.
Michigan. Minnesota, Nevada, New Mex
leo. North Carolina, oregon, South pa-
kota, Tennessee, Utah. Washington and
Wyoming were found to have statute
pertaining To metallifcrous mining. but
with few and incomplete safety provi-
sions.
This committee OF the American Min
ing Congress did considerable work along
this line and made a number OF reports,
In April. 1911, pr. Joseph A. Holmes,
Director OF the Bureau OF Mines. invited
the committee to serve as a committee
Of that bureau, with the idea OF pre-
pairing n fnal draft OF a law, and this
was accepted.

laws. the committee by successive stages

Shipping orders were very large this

shippers buying freely at prices that were
