DEADLOCK ON.
| MINE STRIKE
Conference Here Brings no
Settlement-Both Fac
tions Determined.

All attempts on the part OF Sec
retary of Labor Wilson to bring to-
gether the coal operators and
miners representatives SO that
means might be found to avert the
threatened strike of the miners
came to naught yesterday. Another
conference will be held today.
The operators and John L Lewis,
president of the United Mine Work
ers of America, and other leaders of
the union. along with Secretary
Wilson, were In session practically
all day yesterday. Thomas T.
Brewster. head of the operators,
said no definite conclusion had been
reached when adjournment was
taken late yesterday afternoon. and
Mr.. Lewis declared the attitude of
the miners was unchanged" This
mans a continuation of the dead
lock which has existed for some
time. In the meartime. the nation
is one day nearer the general, coal
miners strike. which is slated to
begin November 1.
The miners are standing pat on
their demands. and the operators
are a unit in refusing to grant
them. Secretary Wilson made a
plea for a compromise. but it fell
on unheeding ears.

The appeal in his behalf Is based
on the fact that the fatal gun fight
occurred on a porch instead of in

is contended that he was not ac-

Polk Is Optimistic
for Ratification Of
German Peace Treaty

Paris, July 30.-(Havas.) Frank
L. Polk, American assistant secre-
tary of state, who arrived here yes
terday to become head of the Amer
lean peace delegation, was quoted
today by several newspapers as be-
ing optimistic regarding the ratifl-
cation of the German peace treaty
by the United States senate.
The terms to be presented to the
Bulgarian delegation which is here
awaiting the completion of the
treaty were said to be the principal
object of Mr.. Folks attention, but,
it was added, he was understood not
to have brought with him Presi-
dent Wilson's decision on the dispo-
sition of Thrace.
1t is the impression in peace con-
ference circles that the United
States will not accept any mandates
and that Great Britain probably will
assume mandates for Constantinople
and Turkey.
