ers Of American labor will put for
ward such unreasonable demands that
an agreement will be impossible. If
this congress were to be made up Of
provincial labor leaders and of en-
ployers whose knowledge and interest
does not extend beyond the front
doors Of their own small shops, agree
ment might be difficult, if not i'm
possible, but If the conference and
congress are made up, as trust they
will be, of men accustomed to deal
with large affairs, in a large way, I
am confident that the result will be
an understanding and an enunciation
of principles and policies far more
effective for orderly progress than
any legislation.

BRITISH COAL LAND OWNERS >.:=:*> :. :.

LONDON, England, June 12.-The
remarkable spectacle: Of titted aristoc-
racy being subjected: to a rigid cross
examination on how they secured
title to coal lands was witnessed at
hearings by the sankey> coal commits
sioh,, when Robert Smilfe,~ president
Of the British Miners: Federation

many embarrassing questions.
Vast acreages and prince4y incomes

lemen, again and again, to produce
the authority on which they hold
these lands
Vague assertions that 1.-THE land had
been in the family since before the
Roman conquest" of IF the land were
not mine it would have been claimed
by some one else" did not satisfy the
miners official. He wanted every
statement of the lords backed by doc
umentary evid--cc and in many cases
the witnesses were unable to do this,
and indicated no desire to show their
title deeds.
The Earl Of Durham was not clear
as to why he claimed ownership of
12,411 acres Of coal land. and which
nets him revenue of 100000 year.
He said he never read the title deeds
to these lands. and he could see not

The attorney of one duke, whose in

land and has an annual income of
over 100000. The earl opposes the
naturalization Of mines. He said the
miners were trying to monopolize
the mines for themselves"
The Marquis of Londonderry insist
ed that he had as much right to the
5000 acres of coal land held by him,
and the income Of $4,000 a year as
he has to the coat on his back.
The Marquis of Butte, who owns
l26,5S2 acres of coal lands, and has
an annual income of over $55O,O0O,
admitted that King Edward VI was
a. boy between 10: and IA years Of
age ESQ years ago when he signed
documents conveying the lands which
now form the Butte estates.
The marquis said he should be paid
for these lands if they were nation
allied, even if it were shown that
the signature of the boy king on
these documents was forged
Lord Thedegar was impatient with
the commission. This nobleman's an

was somewhat rusty about the IT,

his family from time .immemoriial
and that if he didn't ho1d9sthem "sonae

But individual employers and financi-
