Vineyard Haven, Mass, Dec. IL
The Shipping Board steamers North
Wind, Lake Crystal and Fairfield
were aground today as result f the
heavy fog that hung over Vineyard
Sound late yesterday and until this
morning. A 40-mile northerly wind,
which was increasing in force to-
night, caused concern for the ves-
sells. All are coal laden and are
thought to be bound from Norfolk to
Boston.
The coast guard cutter Acushnet
late today made an unsuccessful at
tempt to pull off the North Wind,
which grounded on a soft bottom be-
tween Tarpaulin Cove and Pasque Is
land late yesterday. 1t was thought
that it would be necessary to remove
about 500 tons of her cargo before
she could be floated.
The coast guard cutter Gresham
was in the vicinity of the Lake Crys-
tai, which brought up about mile
away from the North Wind early to-
day.
The Fairfield stranded some time
after midnight on a stony bottom
but was not believed to be in imme-
diate danger. Calls for assistance
were sent out.

Steel Workers to
Keep Up Effort
Nationwide Strike

Washington. Dec. 14-Continuation
of the nation wide steel workers
strike was voted today by the con-
ference here of the twenty-four
presidents Of unions connected with
the steel industry. 1t was said there
were only two dissenting votes, most
of the union leaders maintaining that
victory in the controversy was in
sight.
Members of the strike committee
commenting on the vote declared
that the recent cancellation by the
United States Steel Corporation Of
huge foreign contracts was one Of
the most favorable augeries of the
eventual success of the strike. It
also was asserted that while many
steel plants had resumed operation.
production had been far below nor
NAL with the overhead charges of the
company remaining the same as
during normal production.

Washington, Dec. 14.-President
Wilson today interviewed in the peace
treaty dilemma with an announce
ment that he had mo compromise or
concession of any kind in mind"
would make no move toward the
treaty's disposition and would con-
tinue to hold the Republican MEM
bers of the Senate responsible for
results and conditions attending de-
lay.
The Presidents position, regarded
as peculiarly significant in view of
the recent discussion in the Senate
of a compromise, was set forth in
the following statement issued today
from the White House:
1T was learned from the highest
authority at the executive offices to-
day that the hope of the Republi-
can leaders of the Senate that the
President would presently make
some move which will relieve the
situation with regard to the treaty
is entirely without foundations; he
has no compromise or concession of
any kind in mind but intends so far
as he is concerned that the Republi
can leaders of the Senate shall con-
tinue to bear the undivided respOn-
sibility for the fate of the treaty and
the present condition of the world
in consequence of that fate"
The White House statement ap-
parently had no effect in changing
the treaty situation. Democratic
leaders, indorsing the Presidents
views, declared that it did not pre-
clude a Senate compromise and that
compromise efforts would proceed
Republican leaders reiterated that
the President was responsible for the
present status and must make the
first move towards a solution. Sen
ators hoping to kill the treaty alone
expressed satisfaction.
On one point only, apparently were
all Senate factions in harmony
namely, that decisive action on the
treaty probably would be deferred
until after the proposed holiday re.
cess of Congress, planned to end
January S. Senate debate, probably
centered about the White House
statement, is expected to be reopen
ed tomorrow with fresh vigor. The
Democratic compromise campaign
also is to be pressed. according to
Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska. ad-
ministration leader, but unless some
unexpected development ensues this
week. the leaders believe the finale
cannot be reached until next month
Senator Hitchcock. commenting to-
night on the White House state
ment, declared that the Democrats
would continue efforts for compro-
missing the reservations and that the
Senate and not the President mus'
act first.
."The President says the whole mat
ter is in the hands of the Senate and
agree with him." said Mr.. Hitchcock

mise or concession to make. That Il

gotiate at any time and will continue

DELAY SIGNING
Huns Hem and HaW
Over Protocol
Wiling to Yield Partially in Scapa
Flow Issue-Aiiied Plan Not Liked
Proposes Negotiations with
Board German Shipping Interests

(By The Associated Press.)
Berlin, Saturday, Dec. 13-In her
note replying to the last entente
communication demanding the sign
ing of the protocol preliminary to
putting the peace treaty in effect,
which now is on it's way to Paris,
Germany yields to an extent in her
stand on the Scapa Flow issues.
The text of the reply was handed
on Friday night to q courier who al
once started with it for the French
capital. The text will not be pub
lshed in Berlin before Monday.
1t is learned that in the note the
government reiterated its desire
TO have ratification of the peace
treaty effected at the earliest possible
date. 1t gently hints that the entente
is responsible for the complications
which now have delayed the ex-
change Of notifications for more than
two months. 1t declares that Ger
many has not and is not now making
the final ratification dependent upon
the clauses relating to war prisoners
or the legislation of German sub
jects for trial, although it expresses
the hope that the allies will permit
themselves to be convinced that both
issues have an important bearing up
on the internal political situation IN
Germany.
On the Scapa Flow issue the note
expresses a willingness to yield to
the extent that Germany will consent
to make reparation for the sinking of
the German warships. in order to re-
move what is characterized as the
final obstacle to the definite con-
clusion of peace, although, the note
says. the reparation cannot be made
in the manner suggested in The de-
mand for 400. 900 tons of shipping. On
this point Germany proposes nego-
liations by the entente with borad
Of German shipping interests.
The note declares that the prospec-
tive temporary absence Of Americans
from the committees established un--
der the treaty has not Influenced the
attitude of official Germany towards
he question of final ratification.

ALL Of MINERS
BACK BY MONDAY LEWIS ASSERTS
--LESSEN|NC OF RESTRICTIONS

Washington, Dec. 14-While re-
Taxation of restrictic MS on the use OF
bituminous coal continued today. in
dicating governmental belief that
the strike crisis in the industry has
passed, congressional investigation |
began to bear upon the active par
ticipants in the settlement. The ap!
pearance last night of DR.. Harry A.
Garfield, whose resignation as fed
eral fuel administrator was accepted
yesterday by President Wilson, be- !
fore the Senate subcommittee, in |
vestigating the coal situation was
followed today by indications that !
Attorney General Palmer and other !
high officials would be called on this
week to explain why plans Of 'Df. |
Garfield were set aside and a COM
promise made with the miners union
on a basis which tie former fuel ad-
ministrator described as contrary -
fundamental principles of govern
ment."
Acting President John L. Lewis Of
the United Mine Workers of America,
who is attending the labor recon-
struction conference here, predicted
today that by Monday night 95 per
cent of the miners would be back aC
work.
Though it has been difficult task
to reach all of the men in the short
time since the decision was reached
he said, "it is certain that they will
go hack"
Restrictions imposed on the use of
fuel during the strike gradually are
being removed under the discretion
ary authority to rescind such orders
given the regional railroad directors.
Thus the working week will open to-
morrow with a nearer .appr zach to
normal industrial situation than any
week since the strike was made ef-
fective November l.
Although most of the power to re-
scind the various restrictions has been
placed in the hands of the regional di-
rectors. the railroad administration is
control over bituminous coal and coke.
This has been made necessary not alone
by the resignation of Fuel Administra-
tor Garfield. but also by the resigna-
ti>ns Of Cyrus Guernsey. Jr, assistant
to DR.. Garfield. and John A. Airport.
chief engineer, both Of whom came back
to Washington to serve with their chief
when the fuel administration was re-
vived. These designations practically
have put an end to the reinstituted ac-
tivi les of the administration. Appoint
ment by President Wilson of a COM
mission to supersede the fuel admnis-
traitor is expected this week. No inti-
nations of the personnel have been
given in official quarters, though the
lasis decided upon will make it's COM
position include one mine worker, one
coal mine operator. and a representa-
tive of the public. The three will have
power to readjust wage scales above
