was working smoothly at full speed.
rne miners, for their part, were
equally active. Some Of them. notab-
ly in Derbyshire and Nottingham
shlre, already had ceased work a. the

The issue of gravest Importance
was whether the railroad men and

it's strength, and there can be no
doubt as to the ISSUE
At the same time the miners fed
GRAFTON issued statement saying the
miners had been forced into the
strike because Of the unyielding at
titude of the government in the face
OF their reasonable claims, which left
them without an alternative.
The miners declare they allowed
ample time for. negotiations, and
point out that they modified their

Former Head of Portugal Urges Ma
tional Integrity First.
BY Associated Press,
Lisbon, Sept. 27.-Portuguese mon
archists have been notified that the
former King Manuel of Portgual,
who is now in England is opposed at
present to any steps toward restora-
ton of the monarchy in this country.
This is made public in a letter to the

who is official representative here of
the exiled king. The letter was writ
ten in a hospital where the royalist
statesman is recovering from an
operation under surveillance until
he can be returned to prison where
he has been for nearly two years
since the last monarchist uprising.
The councillor says that he believes
former King Manuel regards the ec-
onomic distress now prevalent in
Portugal "to forbid all genuine Port
uguese from taking part in any kind
of revolutionary movement" The
councillor advises the young monar-
chists. instead, to support social
order which he says is now attacked
in so many ways. He adds: 1--WE
must maintain our national integrity
afterward we will see to the politi-
it is to live" In the meantime he sug-
gests that the monarchists take le-
gal steps to organize their forces.
This letter was evidently written
in answer to questions addressed to
Councillor d. Ornellas as the royalist
leader in Portugal, because a group
