autumn rain drenched the dense

Billie's mother, Mrs. Hercules
Danzcy, arose today from another
night Of sleeplessness and fear With
white. drawn face and dark trimmed
eyes, she went mechanically about
her daily tasks, a prayer for the
safety OF her baby constantly upon
her lips.
The father, hiding his grief as
best he could beneath an outward
stoicism. sought 10 comfort her

Tireless searchers, clad in boots

NOTE RELIEVES
TENSION IN GERMANY
BY United Press:

BY United Press
The allies answer to the latest Ger
man note with regards to the Bal
tic situation has lessened the ten
sion in Germany. While the allied
attitude was decidedly firm. the Ger
mans consider it was friendly and
do not expect the blockade to be
renewed
At first indications were that Ger
many would do and say what was
possible to meet the entente's sug-
gestions Of a blockade against Rus
sia. but the feeling today as voiced
by responsible authorities was that
Germany ought TO decline the sug-
gestion as matter of principle. mas
much as she herself had suffered by
the imposition OF a blockade.
The cabinet. which will decide the
official position, has not yet been
summoned.

Attorney General Palmer Re-
IatiVe to the End of the War.
BY RAYMOND CLAPPER.

Omitted Press staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, oct. 14.-Steps to
avert the threatened bituminous coal
miners strike. set for Nov. l. were
taken here today.
Several suggested courses were
before the senate interstate COM
merce committee for consideration.
In spite of Pres't Wilson's illness,
IT was believed at the capitol that
he would be asked to outline a gov
eminent policy to be adhered to
with regard TO the threatened strike.
Mine Leader Summoned.
Pres't Lewis of the miners. it was
forecast, will be summoned to
Washington within a few days and
the gravity Of the situation put be-
fore him.
Senator's explained the unions
have an agreement to work under
the present scale until next Apri. or
uTtil the war is officially ended. The
issue now is whether they will stand
by that contract or declare IL IS in
valid by reason of the ending of the
war. In case the miners contend the
war is over, and their contract void,
administration officials plan To have
Atty. Gen. Palmer rule on the ques-
ton. Coal operative representatives,
here contend presidential procla-
nation will be necessary to officially
end the war.
Try TO Avert Disaster.
Director Gen. Of Railroads Hines
has conferred with members of the
senate interstate commerce commit
tee. who are seeking TO avert what
they declare will be certain indus
trial disaster.

running within 10 days after the
strike started, it was learned. after
Hines conferred with the senators.
According TO data laid before the
committee by coal men, there Is only
a 10 days supply of fuel on hand
for the railroads. If the miners OBJ
tain their demands for "a wage in
crease, a six hour day and a five
day week. the cost Of coal will jump
$3.50 ton 10 the industrial con-
sumers, the committee was inform
ed The coal men also said that if
the miners get what they want
now, they would press for ultimate
government ownership and opera
ton OF the mines under a national
ization scheme similar TO the Plumb
plan for the railroads.
