WAGE CONTEST
IS ACCEPTED
BYCOALNINERS
Fuel Administrators Is Notified
That Operators and Miners
Have Agreed on Scale

WASHINGTON. Nov. 19-Fuel Ad-
ministrator Garfield was notified to-
day of the final acceptance of a salts
factory wage contract penalty clause
by both operators and miners in the
Kansas, Arkansas ana Missouri coal
fields.
Acceptance of the penalty clause in
the southwest extends it's provisions
to virtually all the "ountry's bitumin-
Gus coal fields.
Through the efforts of the fuel adj
ministration," said Mr.. Garfield, "all
danger of any considerable halt in the
production of bituminous coal through
labor difficulties has been eliminated.
The fuel administration is satisfied
that the patriotic cooperation of both
mine workers and operators, so thor
oughly exemplified in the general ac-
ceptance of the penalty clause agree
ment, can be depended en- to increase
the bituminous coal production all
along the line"
The penalty clause is designed to
prevent by system of fines the shut
ting down of mines either by strikes
or lockouts.

phasized in an official cable dispatch
received here from Rome.
Yesterday morning." says the dis
PATCH, Austrian troops attacked our
positions near Pontedipiave after an
intense artillery fire. The positions
were defended by the 54th infantry
division composed of the Novara bri-
gade and the Third Bersaglieri Nbri-
gade. Overcome by the effect \Of
asphyxiating gases, our soldiers at the
beginning gave way to the advancing
enemy, but later in a dashing counter
attack our troops succeeded in push
ing the Austrians back to the river
after most furious hand-to-hand en-
gagement.
Epic Battles
Units of Bersaglieri also are fight
ing epic battles between Fagaro and
San Bartolomeo, where every ravine,
every hole. every obstacle is desper-
ately contested between the enemy
and the defenders and becomes the
center of the most sanguinary en-
counters. An entire division of Aus
TRANS is participating in the battle,
which is still raging.
Austrians Withdraw
THE Austrians have been compelled
to withdraw to the river edge. where
they are stubbornly fighting with the
river behind them and with little hope
OF receiving assistance in their diff
cult situation.
I'm this sector alone our soldiers
have captured more than 500 prison
ers with 22 officers and considerable
war material. including many machine

his own government. 1t was keyed
in much milder strain than the out
burst from the newspapers and sec
tions of the liberal and conservative
parties which gree.ed the premier on
his return home.
The Welsh leaders reply was a
characteristic fighting speech of the
type which has made him famous.
There was no thought CT retraction for
anything he had said or 6one. no hint
of an apologize strain which some ex-
pected. There were some passages
which would have made old school par
liamentarians, stepped in Gladstonian
traditions of stately courtesy vince,
as when he said the attacks made him
feels is fe he were crossing the chan
mel in a storm on a small destroyer.
But Mr. Lloyd-George always brings
something of the touch of the stump
speaker into the commons and this
gives him a stronger appeal to the
greater audience Inside.
House Crowded.
Hheentire cabinet sat beside him on
the front bench and packed silent
house of commoners, peers and others
fortunate enough TO obtain gallery
seats bent forward TOR every word. The
man whose mantle he had assumed
faced him across space of a few
feet with a gilded mace between them.
Although they addressed each o.her
deferntially "as my honorable friend"
sentences passed, which to those who
knew recent history seem meant to
stab. Mr.. Asquith's criticism was
based on two grounds, that the new
war council would conflict with the
general staff and there would be tN3
separate military advisory bodies. and
the omission of the navy from mem
bership. He also questioned how such
a council could have averted the
course of events in Serbia. Rumania,
Russia and Italy and whether the Paris
speech did not mean that the sacrifices
of the British army had been largely
misdirected or in vain.
WIN cooperate.
The premier argued tina. the new
body would coordinate the work of the
various STATS. whereas under the old
arrangement the general stats had
met together only once a year for the
purpose of settling the strategy of the
allies for battle fronts extending over
thousands of miles. He announced
that Lord Kitchener had recommended
such council in January, 1915. and
that the general staff had proposed it
in July of this year.
Defied Critics
The greater part of the premier's
speech was a defiance of the critic
isms. What he said at Paris he had
said deliberately, to arouse public
opinion and he had done it.
The premier's speech closed in an OPP
imistic strain concerning the pros
poets of victory. He now had no fear
of the meance of submarines. five of
which pests of the sea" had been de-
stroyed on Saturday
