ST. PAUL Minn., Dec. 5.-Hopetul of federal mediation in the dispute be- tween the Twin City car lines and some of their employees, representatives or more than 200 local unions late today voted to adjourn their convention and thus do away, temporarily at least, with the possibility of what would De in effect a general sympathetic strike. After telegraphing Secretary of War Baker that federal mediation would be welcome, the convention leaders de- cided to await his reply before putting into effect the proposed indefinite convention" and the men were ordered to return to work tomorrow, subject tc call December II, should the differences not be settled to the carmens satisfac- tion. In the meantime no demonstra- tions of any kind and no strike vote will be taken, according to J. M. Clan cy president of the St. Paul Trades and Labor Assembly.
 Dispatches from Washington indi- cated that the war department would consider action.
 It was said that the suggested in definite convention would result in tie-up of war industries of various sorts here as well as the important shops of big transcontinental railroads and that the war department was di- rectly interested in a settlement of the troubles.
 The street car service was declared to be within S8 per cent of normal in the twin cities, though company off cials admitted that 800 men had joined the walkout due to their refusal to abide by the safety commissions order directing the disuse of union buttons.
 Ten days ago the company locked out it's union employees by refusing cars to men who wore buttons

LONDON, Dec. Reconsideration of the question of man power for the prosecution of the war was one of the important matters taken up by the in- ter-allied conference in Paris, it be- came known today when the official summary of the results of the confer ence was made public.
 In the permanent committee which will handle this problem the United States will be represented, it having been. decided by the conference that the United States should appoint dele gates to participate in the deliberations of the committee.
 The conference decided to create an international organization to coordinate utilization of transport facilities. In this way, with.ut hampering the em- ployment of 6le various nations re- sources, it / planned for them to re- strict theN imports to permit as much tonnage as possible to be released for carrying of American troops. The con ference provided for an inter allied committee to carry out the decisions of the body with regard to unity of action in the production of war manufactures such as armament and airplanes by way of avoiding Implications and for specialization by the various nations in the branches of production for which they are best fitted.
 The statement issued by the inter- allied conference in Paris is as follows:
 The various committees constituted by the inter rallied conference dealt as a whole with the technical question of the conduct of the war the details Of which cannot be published. However, at the conclusion of their deliberations, the committee decided to publish the following resolutions:
 The financial section, meeting un- der the presidency of Louis klotz (French minister of finance) held num- erous sittings in the course of which the various financial questions inter- esting to the allies were succesively examined. At the end of it's labors this section unanimously adopted the fol- lowing resolution:
 The delegates of the allied powers in the financial section consider it de- sirable, with view to co-ordinatlng their efforts, to meet regularly in order to draw plans for the payment of lia- | bilities and the settlement of loans and rates of exchange and thus assure con- certed action

BRAZ|L|ANS WILL
 STUDY MUNITIONS
TRepublican A. P. Leased Wire1

NEW YORK, Dec. 5.-A commission sent by the government of Brazil to make a study of American intuition factories during the next year or eigh- teen months with a view to enabling the latin republic to expand her am munition manufacturing facilities to meet her war needs arrived in this city today.
 The members, eight army officers and one civilian, plan to go to Wash ington early next week to be intro duced to President Wilson.
 A tour will be made of American cit ies where munitions are made.
 Purchase of powder, machineg uns, small arms and ammunition for Bra zifs army and navy will be one of the purposes of the mission. it was stated, but the chief object is the eventual de- velopmenr of so many munition making plants in Brazil that foreign orders will not have to be placed These factories probably will be modelled after those in the United States.
 Captain Marcolino Fagundes, a member of the mission said that while Brazilian warships probably would stay on the American side of the Atlantic, it would not be surprising if Brazilian troops take their place on the battle front in Europe.

 Attorneys for the three defendants explained that the facts surrounding their cases differ materially from those of the other defendants.
 Roedek and Shredder are to be sentenced December 22; von Brincken next Monday.

 Open reiteration by the Hindu de- fendants of their charges that the testimony was not being translated correctly, brought cries of that is not right" the conversation is being repeated wrong" and "this is not jus tice.' An uproar in court followed.

 ''The sorely tried Russian people may be sure that we sincerely desire to re- store our former friendly relations with them.
 On the other hand, we must regard it our sacred duty not to lay down the sword which plumber seeking and ra- pacious neighbors forced into uor hands until our enemies unequivocally have disavowed their mad plans of dismem- berment and oppression. we will remain the masters in our | own house.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 5.-Sensa- tional developments marked the trial of the defendants in the so-called Hindu conspiracy plot here today in the United States district court.
 Three of the most prominent de- fendants unexpectedly substituted pleas of guilty for not guilty and had the dates for imposition of sentence set: United States Attorney Preston asked that defendants now out on bail be remanded into custody; the Hindu defendants created an uproar over what they alleged was the inaccurate translation of the of ficial Hindu interpreter and a new witness gave testimony purporting to show the activities or Berlin officials in aiding in the alleged plot to over throw British rule in India.
 The defendants who withdrew their pleas of not guilty were: Lieutenant Wilhelm von Brincken,- former mili- tary attache of the German consulate here; George Roedek, former German

 COAL CONTRACTS
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-Direct SUD- ervision of coal contracts will be as- sumed soon by the fuel administration. Regulations about to be issued provide that operators and wholesalers con- tracts must be submitted for approval and that none may be drawn to run for a period longer than a year.
 Deliveries on all contracts will be re- quired to start not later than six months after the contracts are drawn. Contracts will be subject to cancel latlon at any time by the fuel admin lstratlon and must call for delivery of coal at government fixed prices at the time of delivery.
 Except that they do not have to be submitted to the fuel administra- ton for approval retailers contracts are subject hO the same regulations as those for operators and whole salers.
 Complaints of high coal prices in many parts of the country drew from pr. Garfield today the statement that government control Ur fuel has gone Tar toward preventing runaway mark cts and that in many instances prices on domestic coal actually have been reduced. BituminOus prices have been cut down, he said, almost everywhere.
 pr. Garfield said he was not con- sidering licensing either coal operators or dealers for the present.

 'The glorious successes of our arm ies and fleet" said Emperor Charles, fill us with patriotic pride. After a glorious defense of our positions we are now, as before, ready at any time to conclude an honorable peace which guarantees the existence and integrity of the monarchy.
 Guided by this idea we greeted with joyful satisfaction the noble minded intervention of the Pope and will in the future neglect no opportunity to end as soon as possible the costly and great sacrifice the war is causing.

Germans Are Inactive

WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN FRANCE, Dec. 5.-The Germans today still were inactive along the most of the new battle front. Fighting was in progress around a fortified farm north of Havincourt after an enemy attack in the morning, but no other offensive developed against the British line up to noon.
 There had been rumors of an at- tack south of Marcoing, but it did not materialize; it is possible it has been postponed because of the heavy casual ties suffered by von Hindenburg's forces Monday.
 The Germans doubtless hope to push back the british line and recapture the front between La Vacquerie and Marcoing. The sharp salient which General Byng is holding about Bour- lon wood has given rise to interesting military problems. The British have held this line against repeated heavy attacks but there is no gainsaying that 1t is difficult position to maintain and 1t is considered that the British front would be considerably stronger without it.
 The weed is filled with pools Of water, over which the gas from shells hangs some times for "A hours. In ad- dition the German guns are able to AOdSh II II Olll Iltseay QlleCllOnS OWlnS 10 the bend in the line.
 There is an interesting report that few British cavalrymen actually en- tered the town of Cambrai at the be- ginning of General Byngs offensive. | They were in small numbers, how ever, and were withdrawn immediately, as they were far in advance of the main body. The enemy had brought in two fresh divisions to the Marco ing area.
 There is no indication that General von der Marwitz's great offensive has been abandoned and the presence of | further fresh infantry divisions in the Cambrai area shows that the enemy has not yet lost hope of inflicting sharp defeat on the British. The Brit ish line now is very strongly held and can withstand any sledge hammer pressure and the anxiety-the natural effect of the first two days onslaught has been followed by a feeling of I cheerfulness and complete confidence.
 The number of British batteries has been greatly increased and their ae- curate counter shelling of the enerny's strong artillery groups east of the scheldt has effectively reduced their activity.
 The British airmen in clear weather continue to dominate completely the German aircraft and bomb marching

Republican A. p. Leased wire1

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-After sue cessful operation at Kansas City since November 12, the zone system for live stock shipments will be instituted at Chicago, the food administration an- nounced tonight, beginning December 10. The plan worked out to relieve war time terminal congestion, has solved a problem that has bothered livestock dealers and transportation experts for twenty years.
 Under the zone system livestock ter ritory adjacent to the receiving centers is divided so that shipments are equal ized throughout six days of the week. Each zone has a shipping day and is not permitted to move it's stock on other days. The plan has stabilized prices as well as receipts.
 For more than two generations it has been the custom to ship livestock to market largely on Mondays and Tuesdays The result has been con- gested tracks and receiving pens and fluctuating prices.

SALT LAKE CITY, Dec. 5.-A vigor- ous protest against government price fixing for other than patriotic reasons and an appeal to congress for convic- tion of inequalities in the excess prof it's tax law were embodied in resolu- tions unanimously adopted today by metal producers from six western states in conference here.
 After some consideration by special committees and limited discussion on the floor, the convention voted to take no action with reference to lead and zinc until such time as the government attitude indicated that the fixing of the prices of these products was under consideration. The sense of the meet ing was that should such an occasion arise, the convention would favor ac- tion similar to that recommended in the resolution bearing on the silver question
