GREAT BRITAIN WILL EXERT INFLUENCE ON
 ADRIATIC QUESTION
Assures Jugo-Slavs Su- preme Council Will Soon Take Up Matter and Hints Toward Set tlement Favorable To This People.

London, Nov. 2S-Great Bri- tain has given Jugo Slavia as- surances that the Adriatic question will soon be taken up by the Supreme Council and that Great Br1tain's influence will be used to secure a just and equitable settlement in ac- cord with the life and inter ests of Jugo Slavia, according to private despatches.
 These reported assurances are CO., incident with the presentation of the note sent by the Jugo-Slav delega- ton to the Supreme Council in Paris urging that the Adriatic matter be taken up immediately. The British note does not commit the government to any definite line of action.
 Diplomatdsts here are inclined to view the inactivity during the last few days of D'Annunzio. the insurgent Italian commander at Plume, as a hopeful sign. although there is no dis position to assume that he neces- sarily has abandoned his plan for the ann exation of Da1matia to Italy. It is believed that the fact that the Ital- ian elections were unfavorable to his project may have influenced him to

HOWE ASSERTS UHL IS NOT
 TELLING TRUTH Is Rebuked For Statement By Representative
 Baker.

New York, Nov. 2S-The testimony of Byron H. Uhl, Acting Immigration Commissioner, before the House Committed, of Investigation, in session at Ellis Island, was interrupted today by Frederic c. Howe, former com missioner, who accused MT. UhI of not telling the truth.
 The interruption came after Uhl had identified an order dated April 24, stopping the circulation of an- archisttc literature at the island. The order was signed with MT. Howe's name but MT. Uh1 testified that he d ctated the letter and that a nota- ton in the corner showed that it was rot received by the immigration in- spectors until June f.

 The colloquy was ended by Repre- fsntative Baker of California, who in- Formed MT. Howe that he would not be permitted t'to do that sort of thing before the committee.

 Early Today FIREMEN MAKE,
 MANY RESCUES

Baltimore, Nov. 28-The sgroup of buildings formerly occupied by Johns Hopkins University and about a score bounded by Howard, Ross, Monument and Eutaw streets were either des- troyed or wrecked by fire early to- day entailing a loss roughly estimat- ed at S1,00O,000 of which about S100,000 falls on the University.
 The blaze started in Mccoy Hall of the Johns Hopkins group from an undetermined cause. An explosion followed almost instantly and heavy from time to time
 Nine firemen were injured but none seriously.
 Mccoy Hall had been used recently as welfare building and previously as the headquarters of the chemical warfare service of the army, now moved to Edgewood Arsenal. Many

M'MANUS IS TO BE HEAD OF
 ALDERMEN Is to Be Elected Monday Hamilton Would Also
 Accept

While 1t Is known that Alderman Edward T. Hamilton would accept the position of president of the Board of Aldermen again if it was offered to him, the Republican pow CTS who govern City Hall, have de- cided that Alderman Edward J. Mo Manus, Jr., shall have the position and at the meeting on Monday night he will be elected president of the Board.
 The nomination presenting MT. McManus' name will probably be made by Alderman Thomas Connor, and it is not thought that there will be any opposition to the name.
 While Alderman Hamilton has made a good Board president during the terms of 191S-19, for political reasons 1t is thought best to have a change and the powers that be have practically decided on Alderman Mo Manus as the man to carry the posi- ton.
 The president of the Board of AL derman in the absence Of the mayor, Is the chief executive of the city and assumes the duties of that office.

OWNERS WHO WILL NOT COOPERATE TO
 HAVE MINES SEIZED
l4% Increase Will Go In- to Effect In Such Properties Taken and Worked By Govern ment Compensation to Owners Not Dis closed.

Washington, Nov. 2S--Seiz- ure of bituminous coal mines where the owners do not show disposition to cooperate in increasing production and use of troops to protect all miners who desire to work, has been decided upon by the govern ment in an effort to end the bituminous coal strike, it was stated today officially.
 In mines seized by the govern ment the IA per cent wage advance agreed upon by the cabinet will be put into immediate effect, it was said.
 These plans of the government were agreed on by the cabinet last Wednesday officials said, so as to meet the situation resulting from a refusal of the operators or miners, or both to agree to the governments wage increase proposal.
 Cabinet officers expected many mine owners to put into effect voluntarily the 14 per cent. wage. increase

Want Inquiry Into Cost and Production of
 Coal GOVERNMENT DOESN'T WANT LABOR'S AID

London; Nov. 2s-What was re- garded as vote of censure on the policy of the government in connec- ton with control of the coal output of the United Kingdom was moved in the House of Commons this noon. The motion, introduced by William Brace, 8 Labor member, called for the appointment of as committee to in ouire into the cost of production, the output and prices Of coal. Behind the resolutions the full strength Of the labor party was naarshaled. There was a full attendance of the House.
 In presenting the motion MT. Brace declared the labor party had been trying to cooperate with the government in a grave and difficult financial problem, but that the gov lent had declined to permit the partys cooperation.
 MT. Brace asked why the govern ment was afraid of committee of inquiry. The miners, he said, had been driven to despair over the blum ders of the coal department, and the trade was working into chaos. De- velopment was retarded, he declared
 The member maintained that the inquiry required reorganization be- cause of the shortage in the output was not attributed to the miners but to the lack of development by the owners and to bad transportation. The miners, he said, were prepared to cooperate with anybody and ev- erybody, on any system, in order to secure larger production.

 LENGTHY CHASE
Ran Into County Court House Creating Dis
 tTrbance.

Ella Parkchik, of 612 Fairfield avenue, who was recently committed to the State Hospital for the Insane at Middletown, created a considera- able disturbance in Golden Hill street this morning, when she broke away from officers who were conducting her to the railroad station, and ran into the county courthouse, shouting that the officials were attempting to ''boi1 her in oil"
 The woman was captured by State Policeman Verelli, and turned over to the police short time later. Dur. ing her few minutes of freedom, how ever, Ella raised a lot of excitemen! and gave the officers no little worry.
 The Parkchik woman was arrested on November Is, after she had sent in 8 false alarm of fire.

An examina- ton resulted in the woman being declared mentally unbalanced, and she was ordered removed to Middle town. Police officers took her from Hillside Home this morning.
