strike is near. The railroad men have
been given until Thursday to return
to duty. After that time they will
be irrevocably discharged.
III the northern mine field, which fur
nishes $4,000 out of the 10000 tons Of
coal mined in France daily. the men
are continuing st work. The dockers
and seamen's strike, while not gem
eral one, is more complete than that
Of the miners and railway men, but the
hesitation Of tho men in other indus
tries to join the movement, It is con-
sidered, is bound to have its effect
sooner or later.
At Havre the crew Of La Touraine.
just arrived from New York, deserted
the vessel after putting everything In

posts.

High Cost of Living Cuts So
Deeply Into Restaurant Business
Even Walters Are Jobless

VIENNA, April 10.---Aristocratic vi
emma, once famed for its chefs, now Of
fers small opportunities for the display
Of gastronomic art. Professional cooks
are regarded as "superhuities" as also
an army Of walters, all jobless and for
lorn.
Many hundreds Of Austrians who were
nterned in England during the war re-
turned here to find they could get no
work to do. BY far the greater num-
Der are walters. They are in a desper
ate plight. Owing to the great increase
in the cost Of living there has been
great diminution in the number Of those
who were wont to patronize hotels and
restaurants.
Walters fortunate enough to get a
job at their calling encounter almost
insuperable difficulties in providing
themselves with conventional garb.
There are few secondhand dress suits
in Vienna. And new dress suits now
cost from 5000 to 5000 crowns. 1t has
been suggested that IN lieu Of dress
suits they should be allowed to wear

Denikine Volunteers
Surrender to Reds
10000, Army Remnant,
Granted Liberty, Except
Leaders of the Uprising

LONDON, May 4.-Sixty thousand
men, composing the remnants Of the
volunteer army Of General Denikine,
have surrendered to the Bolsheviki, &C
cording to wireless dispatch from
Moscow to-day. The surrender took
place In the Stotchy region Of the
Black Sea coast The volunteers were
headed by Generals Morozoff and Uhre-
off. All were granted life and liberty,
the Moscow statement says. with the
exception Of the leaders Of the rising"
The captu re OF Stotchy was an
nounced in an official statement issued
by the Soviet government at Moscow
last Sunday.
British officials to-day said they were
optimistic over the fate Of the rank
and file of the volunteers surrendered,
although Russia had not yet definitely
replied to the British request for a
statement as to whether the defeated
Denikine troops would be protected by
the Bolsheviki.
A Foreign Office official said he be-
lieved Great Brltain's threat to de-
prisoners were treated improper ly,
coupled with the success Of the Polish
advance. would cause the Bolsheviki at
least to hesitate before committing
atrocities. Great Britain, however. had
no definite policy concerning what she
would do should there be excesses, he
added.
A cons derable number Of Russian
bourgeoisie who fed from South Rus
sia to Asia Minor perished during q
storm in the Black Sea. according to q
wireless dispatch from Moscow to-day.
Fourteen ships laden with refugees
we're. lost, the dispatch says.

Paper Brokers Quizzed
Profiteering Said to Have Been
Revealed in Deals Will,
Small Publishers

WASHINGTON, May 4.-Profts
made Ly brokers in the sale Of print
paper, especially TO small newspapers,
were inquired into to-day by the SEN
ate committee investigating the paper
shortage.
Because the witnesses were required
to produce contracts and other informa-
tion which might be of value to their
competitors, Chairman Reed ordered
an executive session. He announced
that the committee would determine
later what part Of the testimony should
be made public.
Representatives Of number of
brokerage firms in New York City and
elsewhere were examined to-day.
1t was said the brokers denied they
had made excessive profits, contending
they had received profits of only from
one-half to one cent pound on the
paper, compared to three per cent in
normal times. Testimony also showed,
