Paris, Sept. 20,-lron ore, which
was one of the stumbling blocks en-
in the negotiation Of peace
between France and Germany in lS71I
Is likely to cause stout contention In
the eventual settlement of accounts
between the helligorcnts in this war
If Germany is not beaten into COM
plete submission, it is expected IN
France that her delegates will stand
cut stubbornly for tne ambitions Of
those industrial representatives who
recently demanded the establishment
Of military frontiers that win give
Germany the mining regions that are
for the development Of
the empire
The mining regions referred to In
this quotation from the resolutions of
a German Industrial committee are
the 10000 acres of French iron land
in the Briey basin, adjoining the iron
lands Of annexed Lorraine, Just ncru
the frontier. They produce 100000 I
tons of ore per year so per cent Of |
Frances total production; they fur
uish a livelihood TO $4,000 miners
and the steel and iron industries de-
pending upon them give employment /
to $4,000 iron workers. Without
them. Frances industries would be |
paralyzed for years TO come, il not |
disabled
