try's coal miners, it was announced
here tonight, after a preliminary meet
ing of operators and miners represen-
tatives.
The demands were formulated by
the miners representatives and will
be presented at a joint meeting tomor-
row. There is every indication that
the mine owners will refuse TO meet
them. first. on the ground that they
are too high, and second. that the re-
cent fixing of coal prices by President
Wilson will not permit increases.
Basis fer Country.
The increased asked. while stipulat-
ed for the central field, comprising
Ohio, Indiana. Illinois and western
Pennsylvania. will serve as a basis
for the entire country and If they are
granted would have to be met by the
other districts. The demands are as

Increases of Is cents a ton on pick
and machine mined coal at all basing
points in the United States.

on machine and pick coal to be applied
to all differentials existing between
thin and thick vein mines.

ployed in and around mines and 20
per cent raises on dead work and yard
ing.

time being all questions that might

White Presents Demands.
The miners position was presented
by John p. White. president of the
United Mine Workers of America. who
called the conference. Liberal wage
increases. he declared. were necessary
to prevent men from leaving the
mines to go into munitions and other
work which pays higher wages. I'm
Less wages are raised. he said. miners
will leave for higher money elsewhere
and production of coal Immediately
will be cut.
The operators, aside from contend
ing they cannot afford to pay the in
creases. declare the demands are un-
justified inasmuch as a general wage
raise was granted last April. and point
to an increase given in April. 1916.
which they say was granted with the
distant understanding no more dN
mands were to be made for two years.

SECOND RAID.
IN TWO DAYS.
OVER LONDON.
IS EFFECTED.
German Airplanes Again Wis
it English Capital Dealing
Death and Misery In Small
Portion to Populace.
(By Review Leased Wire.)

LONDON, Sept. 25.-Another hos
tile airplane raid on London took
place tonight. There weret two as-
tacks apparently, for after a forty
minute quiet interval anti-aircraft
guns resumed firing in the London dis
trict.
In the first raid after brisk firing by
the defense guns lasting only ten min
utes, the raiders were driven off with
out succeeding in reachingt the city
of London.
"AlI Clear"
The firing of the anti-afrcrart gum
in the second attack was of only brief
duration. The raiders were driven off
and the police gave out the "all clear"
signal at $50 o'clock.
A report of the raid was issued by
Field Marshal French as follows:
Thames Estuary object
"The Thames estuary was again the
object of hostile air raid this even
ing. The Kent and Essex coast was
crossed at various points and few
bombs were dropped, but no casualties
are as yet reported.
One raider penetrated as far as the
southeastern outskirts or Lonoon,
where two bombs fell, causing some
twenty casualties"
It appears that the fierce battle
which the British airplanes and anti
aircraft artillery put up rast night
forced the raiders TO leave London
without doping any considerable
number part of their cargo of explo-
isves.
Few Casualties
The enemy remained over London
at a great height for the greater part
of two hours, and the raj dappears
to have been on a pretentious scale,
but il was even more abortive than
previous attempts Although the Wis
itors arrived early IN the evening, Lon
doners have taken to heart the advice
of the authorities about seeking COW
er. and this accounts in part for the
small number of casualties.
Weather Favorable.
The weather conditions were equal
vlfayorahle for the raiders. but sudg-
ing from the information thus far
available, tonight's raid was less serl-
Gus than Monday night, and apparent
ly the raiders were less numerous.
There was q general air of expectation
of another visit and many business
houses an dstores closed down some
what earlier than usual to tonabie
the employees to reach home before the
raiders arrived. AS a result, when
TIE police warnings TO take cover were
given. the streets in the city section
were rapidly cleared, although much
omnibus traffic continued throughout
the raid. Considerable crowds had
been waiting at most of the tube sta
tions in expectation of the raid and
Immediately took refuge underground.
Anti-Aircsrft Guns Active.
The air battle tonight was compare
lively insignificant compared with
that of Monday night. as heard in
the center of the city.
The anti-aircraft fire in the first in
stance lasted only about 10 minutes.
1t then stopped entirely for about 40
minutes when it resumed again in a
more distant section but only for a
few minutes. Nothing further was
heard after this. although it was still
another half hour before the police
gave the signal that all was clear.
Apparently only one raider reached
the southeastern outskirts of London.
Bombs dropped by him caused 20 casu-
alties.

Germans Again Active.
The army of Crown Prince Rupp-
recht OF Bavaria became active again
Tuesday and made desperate attempts
to retake the ground gained by the
British last Thursday near the Ypres-
Menin road in Flanders. The Ger
mans succeeded in entering the British
lines at two points during the first as
saults, but the British withstood fur
ther attacks and Strengthened out
their line. The days efforts brought
nothing to the Germans but additional
casualties. Great artillery activity is

res.

fectual efforts of Monday the Germans

Inactive On Fronts.
There has been no great activity on
the other fronts. The Italians have
repulsed attacks on the Bainsizza
plateau, northeast of Gorilla. German
efforts to recapture the new positions
gained by the Russians southeast Of
Riga have been checked by the Rus
SLAMS. Captain George GuyiNmer,

flight on the German lines in Flanders
two weeks ago and nothing has been
heard of him since. Lieutenant VOs-
sc, leading German aviator has been
killed in action with his fiftieth ami
versary.
Argentine Action.
By a vote of SO to 19 the Argentine
chamber of deputies has declared in
favor of breaking off diplomatic rela-
tions with Germany. The Argentine
senate last week voted almost unani-
mously in favor of a break over the
revelations brought out by the expos
ure of Won Luxburg, the German min

state department
No Separate Peace.
Great Britain and France have for
mally notified the provisional Russian
government that they would not con-
clude a separate peace to the detri-
ment of Russia. These assurances
were in reply to reports current in
Russia that Germany was endeavoring
to make peace at the expense of the

(By Review Leased Wire,

PETROGRAD. Sept 25. = At the
rial of General Soukhomlinoff, former
minister of war. for high treason
nears its close, public interest has re-
vived to an extraordinary extent. The
court today was crowded.
In concluding his speech, NJ. Zacha-

vigorous explanation of the equip
ment of the army in proof that Sou
khomlinoff had neglected it.
Not Responsible
A second member of counsel for the
millions of soldiers eva 4an
SoukhomlinOff was not responsible
for the insufficiency of equipment for
the millions of soldiers and appealed
to the jury not to make Soukhomlin-

Emotion was aroused among the
audience by the address of NJ Kazar-
inoff, counsel for Madame Soukhomll-

AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 25.-Former
Governor James E. Ferguson, who was
impeached and disqualified from hold
ing public office hereafter in Texas
by action of the senate today, issued
a statement tonight reviewing the
causes which he says brought about
his impeachment and declares he does
not propose to be elifinated from poll
tics, but will go before the people with
the full assurance that he will be
vindicated and returned to the COVER
nor's chair II became known for the
first time tonight that Governor ferg-
uson filed his resignation as governor
with the secretary of state Monday
evening about "a hours before the.
senate finally acted on the impeach-
ment matter.
In his letter OF resignation Mr..
Ferguson says in part:
Resigns Office.
'In order that | might have suffi-
cient time and proper opportunity to
present the merits of my candidacy
for the office of governor OF Texas
for a third term and in order that
there may be no interference with the
right people to elect me to that office
which belongs to the people, | hereby
tender my resignation as governor of
Texas, same to take effect Immediate
ly.
Wants Third Term.
Il take this action only because
have been reliably informed that the
senate of the state of Texas is at
tempting to pass some pretended and
illegal order of judgment for the pur-
pose of preventing the people of Texas
from electing me for a third term and
to prevent my holding of said office
by virtue of their election"
Accuses Politics.
The former governor declares his
impeachment was brought about by
combination of politicians, lobbyists
and others and that he was not tried
by an impartial body of men.
What legal questions are involved
by Mr.. Ferguson's action could not
be ascertained tonight.
