StriCteT Rules
Needed For Coal
Mine FOremen

The manner that q mine foreman.
can secure a position in Ohio causes
many OF the miners to comment freely
on the law that would permit man
who is able to produce q certain
amount of coal at the lowest figure be-
ing the man selected for the position
At the expense of the miner and per
haps his life. 1t appears that the
State of Ohio was never considered as
dangerous to mine coal in as the other
states, due to the fact that there ID
very little gas in this field. The laws
on this account, were not as strong as
they should be, and as result the
applicant is only responsible to trm
employing him, and in order to secure
his position he must show that 1t Is
possible for him to mine the coal
cheaper than his predecessor. That Is
all the qualifications needed.
The miner OF this field Is OF the
oninion that there is more danger min
ing in this field than in many others;
here they have a roof over them that
runs fro 6 to 80 inches Of soap stone,
and at the best is very dangerous, re
mourning the best Of judgment to re-
move 1t, and when forced to work IN
der even for a few minutes is very
danperous. A foreman who can Sc
cure position through his knowledge
Of mines and mining can avert many
accidents to the miners through his
advice in territory that IS considered
dangerous.
IA Rayiand.
The mines about, Rayland are work
ing in some cases and with many
others there is no effort being made to
start them. The Beech Flat mine Is
still working, as is also the Blythe
mine near Rayland. At the old Kelle!
mine they are erecting new tipple
and when completed will be operated
by the same interests that are operat-
ing tn Portland mine, and which i
now working. The Red Mud mine still
remains idle, and no effort IS being
made to even repair the place.
At Connorvllle.
The mines at Connorville are all
working and thes conditions about the
mines there are such that one would
hardly wonder why they have been
idle so long.
By the end Of the week the mines
about Dillonvale, Adina and ROCKVILLE
will be in operation, or at least 80 per
cent of them will be moving. Very
few will be able to work steady for
some time, as they will not have the
business.
-Tiltonyille mine Is still idle; while
the mine is in good shape, they have
not started as yet.
Yorkville mine is still undergoing
some repairs, but they expe0ct to have
it in operation this week.
Rush Run Nos. / and 2 are work
ing, so also is the Salt Run mine.
Gaylord No. Is working, but as
yet they are doing very little, and
miners that were employed elsewhere
during the strike are advised to re-
tain their positions. for some time
yet, the management not being able to
place them at any Of the mines until
the miners who have been idle get
started.
Gaylord No. is being cleaned up,
and this is proving quite a job, as at
this mine considerable rock came
down, closing up much Of the territory
being worked there. 1t is the inten-
ton, to get it going in a couple Of
weeks, as an extra large crew Of men
are working every day making the

Washington, Jan. 25.-Germany pro-
tested to the state department today
thru her ambassador Count Won
Bernstorff. against shipment of Ameri-
can hydroplanes to European beiliger-
ents on the ground that such craft are
war vessels.
A statement issued by the embassy

"The Curtiss works at diamonds

land the well-known hydro-aeroplane
America and five hydro o-acroplanes or
the same type. Thirty-siX planes OF a
different type have oeen ordered by
England. Also Russia has ordered a
number of these vessels from Curtiss.
There is doubt and it needs no eXpla-
nation. that from the standpoint OF in
ternational law hydro- aeroplanes have
to be considered aS war vessels ana
that. Therefore. by article VIII. of the
agreement concluded at The Hague on
Oct. is, 1907, neutral countries are
prohibited to supply belligerent coun-
tries with such vessels. The selling
of hydro -aeroplanes by the Curtiss
works Therefore constitutes breach oil

Investigation recently begun by the

trict Attorney Charles Kline said that

be Of significance in the investigation.
The suit, filed under the Sherman
anti trust act, seeks the abolishment of

connection with the board of trade sew
eral years ago. 1t was alleged the
members would meet every afternoon

so effective. it was said. that it pre-
vented the lowering Of prices in any
section Of the market.

Tinted States Does Not Question
Rights in Belgian Territory.
Washington Jan. %. The United
States has sent a formal note to Ger
many. which. without discussing the
sovereignty of Belgium, expresses
willingness to make such arrangement
as may be necessary with German au-
thorities de fsrrto in Belgium for con-
tiY,uance Of American consular service
there.
The American note should have been
delivered In Berlin by today.
Altho the first note from Germany
did not explicitly raise the issue.
American officials in making their re
ply carefully avoided any expression
which could be taken by Germany as
recognition of sovereignty in Belgium.
The note from the German foreign
office. sent identically to all neutral
governments, announced that certiii-
Gates of authority of all neutral con-
suls had expired
No reference was made in either the
German note or the American reply to
the status of the diplomatic officers.

Consus Not Political.
In it's reply the United States de-
clares that it considers a consul not a
political but a commercial representa- :
tive" who derives permission to do
business irrespective OF his legal rights
from the authorities in direct control of
the district where he is assigned. IN
view of the German occupation of Bel
GUM the United States Is not inclined
to question the right of Germany to
suspend exequators.
The language of the American note
reveals that this government considers
the eveuuators originally issued by the
Belgian government to have been 'sus-
pended" and not expired as charac-
terized in the German communication.
This construction is in accord with
similar phraseology used by the United
States on previous occasions.
While not questioning the German
governments military occupation, the
American note presumes that the
American consular officers at Brussels
at Antwerp and at I.iegc. are PERSONAL
ly agreeable to the German authorities
II they are not the communication asks
that in that case new consuls would be
promptly informed. IL does not state
that in that, new consuls would be
designated to replace them.
