LONDON, March 10.--Three decisions OF
great Importance to labor have been ar
rived at in the last twenty-four hours.
The first Is the announcement that the
Government has decided to proceed with
the recruitment Of $4,000 coal miners !;
the second 10 the agreement reached with
the machinists which it Is hoped will
bring about amicable cooperation in re-
cru!ting additional men for the army
from their ranks the third IL averting
the threatened strike Of 10000 tramway
and bus employees by an increase OF s.
in the weekly wage over the figure that
was paid before the war
The decision Of the coal miners was
unexpected. as the miners had not fin-
ished taking ballot Of the entire meni-
bership as to whether to accept the
Governments plan of recruiting. The
opinion in labor circles Is that the order.
which becomes effective March Il. will
tend to revive unrest In the mining dis.
tricts.
4 miners conference in February de.
manded the calling OF a meeting of the
triple industrial alliance to deal with
the Government regarding the raising Of
the exemption In tho Income tax, the
all foodstuffs and to equaline their dis
tribution and the elimination of excess
profits. II also was demanded that the
Government should make better pro.
vision for feeding children and provide
generous pensions for soldiers and
sailors.
The miners federation. which has a
membership Of more than 100000, has
more than $4,000 men serving with the
colors. II has been selecting the men to
enter the army according to local con.
ditions and with regard to the safe
working Of the mines. The leaders of
the miners unions in most of the dis
tricts Of Great Britain hold the view
that practically every man who can be
spared with safety already has enlisted.
In these circumstances 1t is not likely
that the Governments order will be
taken favorahly by the miners. It 10
feared that owing to the conflicting at
titude in various districts the order may
cause dissensions between those support
ing the co'nbing out process and those
opposed to 1t. with the result that the
miners will vote TO defy the order.

WITH THE AMERICAS ARMY IN France,
March (dc!ayed) Some OF the Amer
leans In listening post In front Of their
line northwest OF Toui discovered early
this morning an enemy patrol fixing
their own wire and promptly opened
fire. The Germans retrcatcd. leaving
two OF their number hanging on the
barbs.
Some hours after daylight a party OF
five Germans. two infantrymen and three
Red Cross workers. emerged from the
enemy lines and started for their COM
rades entangled in the wire. The Amer
leans saw the Red Cross brassards and
did not fire on the party. which removed
the bodies.
There has been increased sniping ac-
tivity along the whole OF the American
front durins the past twenty-four hours
one enemy post gave the Americans spe-
cial trouble during tho night. placing
well aimed bullets on certain points of
the line. After daylight the post still
continued working from shell ho,.~ with
pertscopes. American snipers tried to
silence the enemy from their line, but
were unsuccessful.
A sniping patrol was then organized
by tho Americans and went out in broad
daylight The result of this expedition
has not been reported. The game OF
snlping the sniper Is still continuing.
Reports from various points show that
enemy rifemen are endeavoring to pick
of American troops.
During last night and to-day tho Ger
mans dropped phosgene shells on sew
eral OF the American battery positions
and mustard shells in the rear Of the
line. Three gas alarms were given on
the front within few hours. Owing
to the quickness Of the Americans in ad-
justing their Gas masks the shells did
no damage. The mustang sticks for
many hours to the spot where a shell
falls and soldiers near by experience a
