MUST PAY
Compensation Commissioner OFT Saws
Coal Companies Cannot Withdraw
Until They Pay Liability.

CHARLESTON. w. Va. Sept 16.--
All attempts Of the coal companies
OF the state to withdraw from the
workmen's compensation fund of ths
state unless they comply with every
requirement of the law win be fought
to the end by the commissioner, Lee
OFT.
This announcement was made toda,
after it was announced that the United
States Coal and Coke company would
appeal to the supreme court of ap
peals for authority TO withdraw from
the fund.
Commissioner OFT today said:
They can't take any such action
until they have complied with the law
in every respect"
When they pay their share of Their
liability deficit, after having given
satisfactory bond TO guarantee the
payment of future compensation "a
their employees or their dependents
who might b injured or killed, they
may withdraw but not until then.
The workmen's compensation Law
was enacted for the protection of the
workingmen and their families, and
propose to see that no firm or cor
poration. no matter how great or pow
erful II may be, escapes its just re
sponsibility.
Within a day or two will present
all the facts in this matter that viii
give the people something to think
about"
The compensation law provides au
thority for any employer Withdrawing
from the fund and carrying its owt
insurance provided II gives satisfac
tory bond to guarantee future pay
ments and pays its share OF the liabil
ity deficit OF the state fund. The
United States Coal and Coke compan,
has given bond but refuses to pay the
sl1.o54.l9 alleged 10 be the amount oi
its liability.

BILLION LOAN
CUT In HALF
AMERICAN BANKERS SET FIVE
HUNDRED MILLION AS
SUM TOTAL.
Financial Commission Issues State
ment Giving Account of
Progress of Loan.

NEW YORK. Sept. 16.-The pro-
posed billion dollar loan to Great Brit.
am and France shrivelled today in the
gossip OF Wall street to half its pre-.
vious size.
rive hundred million dollars was
the sum set at the amount which
american financiers would lend. This
hgure seemed 10 be uniform in a hall
dozen or more reports current in the
financial section. At least one finan.
cier in close touch with the situation
was quoted as saying that this sum
would be loaned. The commission IL.
self and its American financial aides
had nothing TO say as TO this phase.
Here is the way some financial au-
thorities regarded the situation:
The commission asked for a billion
dollars. II did not expect to get the
tull amount. To this request bankers
would naturally make a counter offer
say a half billion
There would then follow a series
of parleys. The commission would re.
duee the amount by fifty to one hun.
dred millions and the American bank.
ers would add a few handful of mil.
lions TO their previous offer.
After a period of negotiations they
would reach a common figure. say BY
splitting the difference. This then
would be agreeable 10 both sides and
definite terms as To the interest rate
duration OF the loan and 6her details
could be arranged fairly soon.
Ihe men who have come here from
Great Britain and France. in the
opinion of Wall street. are master
players in the game OF world finance.
Like all good players they do not be-
tray by their words what their inten.
tons are, nor do they place all their
cards on the table at once. as Wall
street views H. Consequently. IL s.
expected that there will be many
more developments before Il will be
seen what they are really striving
for and whether they will win.

York bankers talked with the commits.

NO ACTION BY U. S.
In THE MEAT CASES

WASHINGTON. Sept. 16.-No ac-
ton by the United States government
In connection with the condemnation
OF American meat cargoes by the
British prize court Is contemplated at
this stage. State department officials
explained today that while there had
been some preliminary steps toward
diplomatic negotiation over seizure
OF the cargoes, action was withheld
because the American packers pre-
fererd to exhaust all legal remedies
in England before invoking the aid Of
their government.
IL was recalled that at one stage
Of the proceedings when the attorneys
for the packers felt that they were be
Ing needlessly delayed by the British
authorities. an appeal was made to the
state department. But before the OIL
cials who had consented to treat the
matter automatically, had an oppOr.
tunity to frame a note to the British
government. the packers attorneys
changed their minds and withdrew
their application.
Therefore the state department has
been the only interested observer OF
the proceedings before the London
prize court and IL was said today that
this condition would continue until the
packers had gone TO the appellate
court OF last resort IN England. the
