MINERS OPPOSE CONSCR|PT|ON
 IN ENGLAND

LANCASTER. Eng. Feb 9. - The Miners Conference, in session here, today discussed the conscription mea- sure passed by the late parliament The members almost unanimously op. posed the principle of compulsory en- listment, and some of the speakers vehemently condemned the govern ment for the action taken. At the close of the debate a resolution was adopted by a big vote, expressing op- position to the spirit of conscription and stating that the organization would exercise vigilant scrutiny and persistence to see that the present law was not extended, The military service act is far from universal at present, as it applies only to unmar- ried men, but already there is talk in England of enlarging it's scope, and it was this talk of increasing the scope of the law that particularly invoked the disapproval of the miners.

RUSSIA GETTING ALL MUNITIONS
 NEEDED

PETROGRAD, Feb. 9. - General Polivaroff, the Russian minister of war, said today that munitions and armies of the Czar were now abun- dant, despite the reports to the con trary. The factories of the empire have been greatly enlarged and much valuable material is coming into the country from the new Russian winter port by way of the steamship line from Tromsoe in Norway. The port of Vladivostok is also busily engaged receiving large numbers of ships from Japan and America loaded with guns and ammunition. which is being rap idly transported across the Siberian railroad to the front. Polivaroff also said that excellent plans had been de vised, which would properly see to the recruiting, and that the regiments at the front would be kept up to their full fighting strength.

COPPER MARKE I FIRM; PRICES
 ID GO UP

NEW YORK. Feb. g. - Bunish news concerning the copper market and reported immense new orders for future deliveries, caused a wave of excitement to sweep over the exchange today, which reacted on all the leading copper stocks. All of the well known securities registered substantial ad- vances over yesterdays closing prices. The outlook is that the market will continue to be bull one, as the spec ulators in the street have concluded that there is no possibility for an early peace, and the prevailing opin- ion is that Congress will surely pass the new administration measures for increased national defence. All this means, in the eyes of the market, that there will be a big demand for copper for a long time yet, and it is confi- dently predicted that the price of the metal will go much higher than 1t is now.

GERMANY PLANS EXPECTATION
 BELGIAN PORT

AMSTERDAM. Feb. g. - X report was received here today. smuggled over the Dutch-Belgian frontier, to the effect that six hundred thousand Germans had recently arrived at the western battle line, coming from the army along the Dvina river in the north. It is rumored that the Germans are planning to extensively fortify the Belgian port of Zeebrugge, as it is intended to make this the base for important naval operations. Large enough guns are to be installed to prevent the British and French fleets from approaching the shore and bonn barding the Germans in the trenches at this point of the line

ARMOR FACTORY BE BUILT BY
 GOvT.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9. - A bill for the erection of a government armor plate factory was reported by the House committee on military af- fairs yesterday The measure carries an appropriation of eleven million for construction and equipment of the plant. The measure will meet strong opposition in both Houses from the representatives of the armor plate manufacturers. who are represented by strong lobby in Washington. The probabilities are that the measure will become law, as it has the support of the administration, and is in line with President Wilson's promise to the people in his recent speech-making tour when he answered the criticisms that his preparedness program was for the benefit of the armament man ufacturers. by saying that the govern ment would build it's own factories and manufacture the things it needed

GERMANY $ NOTE SUBSTANTIALLY
 SAT|SF FACTORY

WASHINGTON. Feb. g. -- High ad- ministration officials stated yesterday that a settlement of the main points of controversy in the Lusitania nego- tiations between the United States and Germany was now in sight These officials, while not committing them selves as to the opinions of the cabi net members on Germany's latest pro positions, go so far as to say to the press correspondents that the wording of the agreement proposed by the Berlin foreign office seems to cover the position of the United States in the matter, and that the newspapers could draw their own conclusions. The proposal of Germany is substantially satisfactory, and it is unfair to as sume that this government will make q new answer to Germany, demanding more admissions of culpability on the part of the commander of the subma- rine which torpedoed the Cunard liner or asking further concessions from Germany on the matter of submarine warfare.

warfare

WASHINGTON, Feb 9.-Germany' latest proposal for settlement of the Lusitania case, having proven sub stantially satisfactory to the govern ment of the United States, a final set clement of the controversy is expected within a few days. Some minor alter ations in the form of the agreement will be made to meet the wishes of the American government and Am bassador Bernstorff has consulted the Berlin foreign office in regard to these. It is not thought that any fur ther hitch will occur, but a reply from Germany cannot be expected for at least six days It is confidently pre- dicted that the end of the whole troublous submarine question is about to be reached.

REFUSE PEACE. OFFER
 OF GERMANY

ROME. Feb. g. - IL is reported here that Germany has made propositions of peace to Belgium. According to the statement now current Germany offered his country back to King AL bert, and also offered to pay large indemnity for the damage caused to the people and the nation by the leu tonic invasion year ago last August. In return for this Germany only asked that Belgium give her certain privi- leges and concessions in the port of Antwerp, which would have practical ly made that seaport a German city. The Belgian government at Havre im- mediately refused the offered terms.

i. KITCHENER WILL LEAD FORCES
 IN FRANCE

LONDON. Feb. 9. - The Weekly World in it's issue yesterday gave considerable prominence to a report that Lord Kitchener, the secretary of state for war, was about to take the field in person, leading the British forces in northern France. The same article claims that Lord Derby, the originator of the successful recruiting campaign just completed will take Kitchener's place in the cabinet. The same story says that if the Germans should threaten Egypt with an inva- sion, Kitchener is certain to take the field and direct the British forces in that country.

ARTILLERY DUELS ONLY BATTLES
 BEING FOUGHT

PETROGRAD, Feb. 9. - Advices from the front in Russia and Galicia tend to explain the lack of news from the firing line by saying that a lull has occurred in the battles, and that outside of intermittent artillery duels neither of the combatants is eXerting himself to any great extent. Along the Dvinzk-Riga line nothing is oc- curing but aeroplane warfare, and mining operations. The sappers of both armies have been driving tunnels, and exploding trenches of their op- ponents. No decided or important gain has been made along this DOT tion of the line for month Russia has received information that a large body of the seasoned trops, which were under Hindenberg in his great march through Poland last summer and fall have been transferred from the eastern to the western front This is taken by the Russian military ex- perts as an indication of Germany's probable plan of campaign in the spring It is now though that the next German offensive will be direct ed against the left flank of the allied line in Belgium and northern France, in an effort to smash through to Ca lais and Dunkirk. The German gen eral staff, for the present, seems to be content with holding it's own in Bukowina, and in the northern sec
 tion. and are preparing to devote their major attention to the French and English. In the middle section of the eastern line, the situation has not re solved itself yet sufficient to satisfy either side, the Russians threatening the Austrian forces along the Stripa.
