BRITISH MINERS ARE
REFUSING TO WORK
Protest Against Six-Shilling Increase in
Price Of Coal Following Refusal of
Miners Federation to
Accept Scale.

London, July 2l,-As a protest against
the increase of six shillings in the price
of coal, which came into effect to-day,
following the refusal of the miners fed
Grafton to accept a compromise on the
wage and other questions, thousands of
miners in the Mansfield district of Not
tinghamshire refused to go down into the
pits this morning.
The men in other districts are expected
to do likewise, despite the recommenda-
tion by the federations in all districts
that work be continued until the gov
ernment settled the question of piece
rates growing out of the increase in the
coal price.
Some 100000 miners likewise are out
in Yorkshire for an increase in wages,
granted by South Yorkshire mine own
ers, subject to approval by the controller
The West Yorkshire owners, however
withdrew from this agreement
The strike is generally considered as
very serious because workers engaged
in pumping and other labor essential
to the safety Of the mines, joined the
strikers. Heretofore, such workers have
been allowed to continue at their tasks
during strikes.

TRUCK TURNED SoMERSAULT
But George -Moriarty Was Only Shaken
Up at Cuttingsville.

Cuttingsville, July 2l.-After the Ford
truck which he was driving had turned
complete somersault at the iron bridge
just north of the village, dumping part
Of its cargo of milk into the waters of
Mill river, George Moriarty crawled out
from under the wreck, pretty we'll shak.
EN- up and bruised, but with no broken
bones or serious injuries.
The accident happened Saturday even
ing when George was driving Will
Smiths milk truck to thA Cuttingsvill
station, and just how he got off the roa,
and into the river no one knows. The
truck failed to make the curve, went
down the l5-foot bank into the river and
turned turtle. Probably only the cab OF
the truck saved the driver from death or
serious injury.
The iron bridge is situated about a
mile north of Cuttingsville station and
the route from Mr.. Smiths is better by
that road-from Shrewsbury down..
than by the other road There is short
curve just before the road enters upon
the bridge and another curve on the fur
ther side. 1t was on the short curve
that the car went over
H. r. Ridlon, with the assistance of
block and tackle, got the car out of the
river Sunday morning, saving part of the
cargo, and the fiyver was able to proceed
to further repairs under its own power.

BADLY INJURED IN FALL.
Edward Wood of Castleton Was on
Power Company Pole.

Rutland, July 2l Edward Wood of
Castleton, lineman for the Rutland
Railway, Light and Power company, suf-
fered serious injuries yesterday when
he fell from the top OF pole near Whip
pie Hollow about 30 feet to the trolley
track, striking on tie or a rail. The
bones broken include the left shoulder
several ribs on the left side and the left
pelyis and there are numerous bruises
and contusions.
The injured man was brought on the
work car to Center Rutland, where he
was met by the J. B. Stearns auto am
bulance and rushed to the Rutland hos
pital, where Drs. William Stiekney and
W. G. Hodgdon attended him Although
his condition is serious ii is expected
that he viii recover. Xray pictures will
be taken to-day to determine the ex-
tent Of his injuries which could be only
approximated yesterday afternoon
Although Mr. Wood was not burned so
far as could be seen in the examination
made by the physicians, they believe
that he must have received an electric
current, possibly by short circuit,
which rendered him helpless or uncon-
seious and caused him to fall from the
pole.

But Only as Compensation
to Civilians and
Their Property
HER TERMS OF PEACE
GIVEN INFORMALLY
And Austria Must Reply to
the Allies Within
Is Days

Paris, July 2l.-Austrias delegates to
the peace conference to-day had in their
hands for study the complete peace con-
ditions of the allies, the sections of the
treaty which were incomplete when the
terms were originally presented on June
2, having been handed to the Austrian
plenipotentiaries yesterday without cere-
mony Austria is given 10 days in which
to reply
The new clauses were those dealing
with reparations, finances, military pro-
visions and few minor items The chief
provision of the military terms is that
Austria must not have a larger army
than 10000 men, voluntarily enlisted,
conscription being abolished As to repa-
ration, the treaty provides Austria shall
accept responsibility together with her
allies for the losses the allied powers
and their nationals suffered through the
war Because of Austrlas limited re-
sources, however, she is asked to under
take only to make compensations for
damage done TO civilians and their prop
erty, the requirements being similar to
those of the German treaty.
No specific amount of damage is
named This will be determined by the
reparation commission set up by the
German treaty, special section of which
will take the Austrian situation in hand
Notification Of the amount is to be given
Austria before May !, 1921, and a pc
riod Of 80 years is allowed for payments
in installments, although "a reasonable
sum" must be paid next year and the
first four months of 1921 The remain
ing payments are TO be taken care of
by bond issue. Provision is made for
restoration by Austria of the new areas
she invaded and replacement in kind of
materials taken or destroyed.
The provisions regarding the pre- war
debt of Austria are rather complex. Each
Of the states formed OF the former dual
monarchy, however, must assume part of
this debt the reparation commission to
fix the amounts. II is stipulated the
republic of Austria is alone responsible
for the war debt held outside the former
empire.

SUFFICIENT POWER
WILL BE FURNISHED
FOR ALL CUSTOMERS
Montpelier & Barre Light & Power Co.
Promised That After Conference with
Committee of Barre Men Who
Offered Firemen for Steam
Plants

All plants securing their motive power
from the Montpelier & Barre Light &
Power company are in operation to-day,
the manager of the company deciding
Saturday that with little more effort
on their part they could produce enough
power to keep all customers supplied.
This decision did not come until after
the committee from the Quarry Owners
association, in company with Prof. w. II.
Freedman Of the electrical engineering
department of the University of Yer
mont, had inspected the various plants of
the company and had reported to quarry
owners and manufacturers that the com
pany was not producing power to the
capacity of its steam plants
The local management of the power
company met with the committee from
the manufacturers association and the
quarry owners and Prof Freedman Sat
urday afternoon and as result Of that
conference it was established that the
power company has and can develop
about 4,500 kilowatts, with a maximum
steam production at the Pioneer plant,
whichsis about 900 more than they did
produce last week. This additional pow
er win practically make up the shortage
in the Barre district.
Before the company makes any further
shutdown, it will take advantage of the
quarry owners offer to provide them
with the additional firemen they can use
to get the maximum steam power out of
this plant with the poor coal the com
pany claims it is supplied with. At the
same time, the Miles Coal company and
Calder & Richardson are divertiDg coal
to the plant of better quality than the
company possesses, which will help the
production Meanwhile, the Essex june
tion company has promised to deliver
1000 kilowatts daily, beginning to-day,
which will relieve the situation.
AT Saturdays meeting the power com
pany manager agreed to have the Moody
& Almon and Viles steam plant, at pres
ent out Of repair, and which easily have
capacity of 440 kilowatts, inspected
and report to the manufacturers within
week of the possibility and the length
Of time required for putting them in
operation

House at IL a. m. the hour at which he
had been asked to call, and while others
who communicated with his office to an
nounce that the president had been

been received there at that time.
