London, Aug. 19.-England today
is experiencing the spectacle OF a
dress rehearsal for revolutionary ac
tion. The government fully expects
the miners to strike early in sep
tember.
The mine leaders have submitted
demands which neither the govern
ment nor industry will consider, be-
cause to accept them would be equiv
alent to placing the control of the
mines in the hands of the miners.
Furthermore. the mine Ieaoers,
backed by the responsible labor
chiefs, desire to measure their
strength with the government. La
Dor is anxious now to bring on both
an industrial and political crisis,
hoping by means of strikes and a
possible general election to gain
control of the government.
Try to SmuggIe Ammunition.
The Public Ledger Foreign Service
is informed by most reliable author
tiles that attempts have recently
been made to smuggle ammunition
into mine centers. and while the
miners are undoubtedly arming anu
preparing in some localities to take
the mine properties there is another
very powerful secret organization of
former officers and citizens who are
also arming and preparing for the
crisis, to help the government when
it calls for assistance. This organ
ization. which is known as the coun-
ell of defense, is an outgrowth of
the citizens body which carried on
during last years great rail strike.
While the council of action is
planning TO supersede the govern
ment, the council of defense is
building up an organization Of
citizen volunteers to do the work OF
the strikers and carry on.

II this threatened revolutionary
outburst were confined to Great
Britain there would be little cause
for, alarm. But events in England
are closely connected with Russian
propa ganda- There is not the slight
est doubt today in minds of the gov
ernment but that Lenine, through
his trade representatives here, is
guiding the revolutionary movement
in England. I understand the gov
ernment possesses full Information
showing that krassin and Kameneff
paid the representatives of the Daily
Herald $50 Chinese gold bonds of
nominal value of 500 each for con-
trolling the policy of that paper.

Seventeen More Points

Antwerp. Aug 19. - Although a
chilling drizzle lowered the spirits
of all contestants at the Olympiad
today the performance of the Amer
lean entries in all events brought
cheer to their teammates and sup
porters. Tonight the American team,
after piling up total of II points
for the DAY, is that many more in
the lead of Finland, our nearest
competitor, who failed to place a
man in any event.
The rain had fallen all last
night and the track. which has
been slow at all times. was hsrder
going than ever. The breeze,
which blew without a let-up. was
chill and cutting. 1t was no day
for slight-built men. and that was
demonstrated in every race.
Afternoon Going Hard.
All OF our men who qualified for
the 400 meters had easy heats in
the morning and did not feel the
running but in the afternoon IL
was much harder going and the
four of US complained of being
very tired. although we had not
run at any -recordsbreaking speed.
7 feel that the 400-meter men will
run much better than in today's
races, should we all get into the
finals. Rudd. the remarkable
South African. did not look so good
today. He was very Icg-weary in
the semi-fnal heat, which was won
by Shea. Three hard S0O-metcr
races have told on him. He was
fit on the FIRST day of the meet but
could not hold the pace through
all the racing he has been called
upon to do.
NnuItcrs Had Easy Day.
All the vamIters did was hop
over the required twelve feet, ac-
by our men without any
trouble. l am sure they will give
good accounts of themselves.
Fred Fallcr looks the best of our
distance men. He did well in the
] 1O.OO0-mcter heats today. Guile
meter race, was in this heat, as was
Bachman. of Sweden. While l do
not believe Fallcr can compare
with such runners as these he will
place in the final race.
Our sprinters, today. were given
no trouble in their first heats. Pad
dock looked exceptionally strong.
WOodring was substituted for
SCholz and looks as though he
would give a good account of him
self.
The victory of Pat Ryan. giant
New York policeman. in the ham
mer throw; the record of the Ameri-
can runners in taking all four heats
in the 2OO-meter dash trials: the
performance of our quarter -milers
in winning four out of five Of the
trials of the 4OO-meter race. all went
to overcome the deadening effect of
the weather upon the athletes who
were not competing today and upon
the handful sof Americans among
the scattered few who braved the
elements to witness today's events.
Only Third in 1,5O0-metcr Run.
These performances also did much
to overcome the disappointment over
the failure of our men to get better
than third place in the l.5O0-meter
