COAL MINES
ARE To Be
RE-0PENED
WORK WILL BEGIN AT ONCE IN
THE ANT-McCURTAlN PROP
ERTlES WHICH HAVE BEEN
IDLE TWO YEARS.

Fort Smith, Ark, April ll.-Attef
being idle for two years, the two
mines formerly operated by the san
Bois Coal company at Chant and Nc
Curtain, Okla, will resume operations
Monday. Within a short time five hun
dred miners will be at work as re-
suit OF a wage contract that was
signed in TT. Smith Saturday even
ing by the representatives OF the Unit
ed Mine Workers of America and d. }
Jordan, president and general man
ager OF the Blue Ridge Coal com
pany, which took over the mines.
When running to their full capacity,
the mines will produce 1000 :ons OF
coal daily. The labor contract runs
for two years.
The Blue Ridge company took over
the property some time ago, but as
result of differences in wage mat
ters no contract was secured by the
union miners. The company contin'
ued repairing the mines with union
help, until February 2, when the men
were called out on a strike. They
we're succeeded by non-union labor
and a short time later the operators
applied for an injunction in the Unit
| ed States district court at Muskogee
to restrain the union members from
interfering with the operations of the
corporation, it being alleged that the
workmen we're intimidated.
A decision relative to the injunc
tion was rendered at Muskogee Sat
urday by Judge Ralph Campbell, who
did not sustain the complaint of the
operators. Negotiations that resulted
| in the signing of the contract have
been in progress for the past several
days. The points in dispute were left
| for adjudication to Tom King of Bo
nanza. vice president of the district
union, and Dan c. McAlpine of the
! Folsom-Morris company of Lehigh, Ok
lahoma. representing the operators, as
board of arbitration.
On March 20 1912, seventy-three
men were killed in an explosion OF
one of the mines and the company
went into the hands of receiver The
receivers operated the mines until
the following spring when they were
! closed II is the intention of Genera
Manager Jordan to commence opera
tions at once One hundred men vii
| be put to work as soon as mine No
| is sufficiently repaired to permit the
digging of coal. Mine No. 3 will mex
be repaired.

A PAN AMERICAN CONFERENCE

Perhaps no move made by the ad-
ministration at Washington for the
encouragement OF trade has greater
potentialities than the trade and bank
ing conference to be held at Wash-
ington in May by the ministers of
finance and bankers of Central an !
South America, three from each coun-
try. Such a conference should
make Herculcan efforts to ESTABLISH
dollar exchange, with New York "a
the clearing point. London ard the
English pound system have been
used for decades in the international
exchanges for South America. where
banking facilities are provided, trade
will gravitate. When New York
and Chicago capital is used to De.
yelop tramways, docks banks and
shipping in South America, there
will no longer be any question whore
the commerce will go. American cap
ital means American commercia, lead.
ership and this in turn means mar
kets for American goods. II the
Pan American trade conference IN
May can hasten the advent of general
use of dollar exchange. it will have
achieved striking successful.

RETURN OF THE SAILING SHIP

One peculiar result Of conditions
brought about by the European war
is noted in the return Of the old
fashioned square rigRed sailing ship
10 the waters Of the North Atlantic
In recent years the square
rigged ship has been virtually out Of
service. Hundreds OF vessels which
were earning good profits 20 years
ago have been in later times tied
up in the worlds ports. Now, how
ever, crews are being found for
many II them, and they are being
put to work T"enty Of these old
timers. it is said, are now either
bound for New York from European
ports or are being loaded for the
voyage across the Atlantic. Quite a
fleet Of them is operating between
North Atlantic ports. The real 70.
nance Of the seas was woven about
these square rggers They were the
beauties of the deep. With their
| clouds OF bellying canvas, and the
wind whining through their taut
| ropes, they made an appeal of which
the steam propelled ocean liner is
incapable They inspired the artist
and drew from the poet a form OF
wild, lifting verse that was inimtable
