met yesterday to consider application
OF the II per cent wage increase
granted to the miners in the settle.
ment OF the bituminous coal strike,
adjourned without reaching an agree
ment. No date was set for further
consideration.
The miners are insisting on a fiat in
crease Of II per cent, while the
operators contend the increase should
apply only to machine miners. Opera
tors said that "differentials" must be
maintained or a large number would
be forced out of business.
Differentials, Harry N. Taylor Of the
operators explained, are based on the
cost of production. which must be
kept IS cents a ton lower in the
southwestern field than in Illinois to
keep Illinois operators from selling
coal in this territory. He said this
system had been followed for sew
eral years.
Alexander NJ. Howat. president of
the Kansas miners. asserted that the
operators plan of applying differen-
tials would mean a reduction of the
II per cent increase in some places
to or per cent.
Neither operators nor miners would
say on what basis the men now at
work would be paid.

mentS. the japanese are said to feel
that it is their duty to hold their
present lines even though It be neces-
sary TO add considerably to the num-
Der of their troops there. 1t has been
explained to the United States gov
eminent that a Withdrawal of the
Japanese troops would be followed
by the massacre of all of the Russian
inha bitants who have given support
to the japanese and Americans and
the seizure by the bolsheviki of the
entire line of the Siberian railway
upon which the people in the interior
depend for Sustenance. For the
japanese especially, the situation
then would be made acute, it is said
because of the advent of bolshevisin

and across the narrow straits separat-
ing Japan from the mainland of Asia
The exchanges between the two gov

by the best of feeling and the Jap
anese government has taken special
pains to make the United States gov
eminent understand that il desires to
act IN perfect harmony with it in this
matter.
