stipulation that there should be no

After a three-hour conference at

DIR. Garfield, the sub-scale committee
composed of miners and operators
met to consider the settlement plan
and quickly adjourned. Another
meeting will be held tomorrow.
The miners refusal to accept. while
not announced to DIR. Garfield, was
taken by the operators to be definite.
Thomas I. Brewster chairman of the
operators association. declared the
Garfield fourteen per cent statement

There was a sharp note of protest
from the miners over the amount Of
increase which was much lower than
they had expected Frank Fardington.

miners, was cheered when he declared
that union men in his state would not
accept It. Answering Harrington, who
wanted to know if miners refusing to
work would he classed as outlaws, DIR.
Garfield said the government could
not compel anybody to work, but that
II would provide every protection for
those willing to go into the mines and
give the country the coal it needed.
While the sub-seale committee will
give consideration to the proposition
the full committee representing both
sides, will remain here to receive any
plan of settlement that might lie
agreed upon.
Operators here will meet tomorrow
to decide whether to grant the in

MEXICO HOPES To
ANTAGONIZE j. s.
IN JENKINS CASE
Some Washington Officials
Express the Belief That Car
ranza'S Action Is Part of
Plan to Create Friction.

Washington, Nov. 26.-Some off,
cials expressed belief today that the
Mexican governments delay in reply
ing TO the American note, sent more
than a week ago, demanding release
of William Q. Jenkins, consular agent
at Puebla, was part of a deliberate
plan to stil further antagonize the
United States
This belief was based largely upon
official information from Mexico Cit,
tfat officials there we're endeavorinp
to spread the report that this country
was on the verge of a revolution and
that by holding up the reply MeNica
could offer substantial aid to the
evolutionists"
Mexican agents in the Unite
States, the advices said. had been
sending home highly colored and
Wiley exaggerated reports concerning
domestic conditions the steel and coal
strikes being cited as glaring evidence
of industrial unrest.
There was no report from the en-
bassv at the Mexican capital to add
anything to those received heretofore,
all of which showed that Jenkins was
still held in the peniteniary on
charge of having been implicated with
the bandits who took S150,000 from
him after he had been kidnapped. One
dispatch from Mexico City said thn
Mexican senate had decided to ask
President Carranza for full inrorma
ton on the Jenkins case and this was
taken to mean that no reply might ha|
expected until the senate had given il
some consideration. The principal
effect here of MeXicos failure to an
swer promptly the American demands
has been to make the already strain ed
relations a little more strained.

Lime is practically unobtainable in

it for months.
At Dixmude, the mayor divides his
time between public affairs. weighing
out coal, distributing supplies md
cleaning mortar off of old bricks from
the ruin of his house. He is laying
these in mud, too. for his winters
shelter. His example is being widely
followed in Dixmude and surrounding

Malone was mentioned as having ac-
