KANSAS SHORT OF PASTORS
Industrial Court Asked to Find Out
Who Makes Profit-Mine
Operated at Loss.

Just what power the new industrial
court has to fix prices in connection
with wages has been checked up by
the Graham & Simon Coal Co, field
recently. The company is asking the
new court to investigate its condition,
and comply with that section of the
law providing the court is to give cap
ital a fair return on investment.
According to the complaint, this
coal company must operate at loss
to comply with the wage agreement Of
last December, by which the miners
get an increase of Ii per cent. The
Graham & Simon Co, states that It
rents from the Jackson & Walker
Coal Co., paying a fixed rental and
receiving a certain amount on all coal
produced.
AS a side issue the company raises
the question of who is profiteeTing
along the line. 1t points out in its
complaint that the coal for which it
receives $2.45 a ton, loaded in the
cars, is being sold over the state for
more than SO a ton The complaint
was filed with Richard J. Hopkins, at
torney, attorney general, and forward
ed by him to the court of industrial

THE SHIP AUCTION FAILS
Passage OF the Mcclellan Resolution by
the Senate Kept Bidders Away
From Sale.

Washington.-The auction of former
German liners by the shipping board
collapsed here.
An hour after bidding opened Com
missioner Scott closed it. Up TO that
time there had been only one bid OF
S55O,000 for the Otzgo.
Scott announced that all the bids
would be submitted to the senate
commerce committee before being act
ed upon, but this is regarded as a
mere formality, since all the bids re-
ceived were so low that there is lit
tie prospect that the board will accept
any OF them.
The end of the auction, shipping
men said, was due to the action of
the senate in passing the Mcclellan
resolution to defer the sale Of the
ships. Shipping men did not wat to
show their hand" while the sale was
still uncertain.

LANSING QUITS THE CABINET
Secretary of State Resigns After Be-
ing Accused by President OF
Usurping His Authority.

Washington Robert Lansing re-
Gently ended his career as secretary
of state, after President Wilson had
accused him of usurping the powers
Of president by calling meetings of
the cabinet during Mr.. Wilson's ill
ness
Mr.. Lansing denied that he had
sought or intended to usurp the presi-
Dental authority. He added, however,
that he believed then and still be
heved that the cabinet conferences
were FER the best interests of the re-
public; that they were proper and
necessary because Of the President
condition, and that he would have
been derelict in his duty if he had
failed to act as he did.
AS the record stands, Mr. Lansing
rendered his resignation and Mr. Viii
son accepted it. The resignation was
offered, however, only after the presi-
dent, under date of February z, had
written, asking il it were true that
Mr.. Lansing had called cabinet meet
ings, he felt it necessary to say that
under our constitutional law and
practice, as developed hitherto, no one
but the President has the right to
summon the heads of the executive de-
partments to conference"
Mr.. Lansing answered two days
later-last Misunderstanding he had
called the cabinet conference because
he and others of the Presidents Off
cial family "felt that, in view of the
fact that we were denied communica-
ton with you, it was wise for US to
confer Informally together on q.
matters as to which action could not
be postponed until wour medical adj
visers permitted you to rass upon
them"
The President replied last Wednes-
day that he was much disappointed
by Mr.. Lansing's letter regarding the
so-called cabinet meetings" He said
he found nothing in the secretary
letter which justifies your assump-
ton Of presidential authority in such
matter and added that he must
frankly take advantage OF your kind
suggestion" to resign.
II must say" continued the Presi-
dent. that it would relieve me Of en-
barrassment, Mr. Secretary, the en-
barrassment OF feeling your reluctance
would give up your present office and
afford me an opportunity to select
some one whose mind would more
willingly go along with mine.'

FIUME QUESTION
OPENED UP AGAIN
Wilson's Note Has the Effect of
Bringing Whole Subject
Up for Negotiation.
ANSWER OF ALLIES RECEIVED
Contents Of Supreme Councils Note
Kept secret-Ask United States
for = Solution.

Washington. - President Wilson's
note to the allied supreme council
regarding the Adriatic question, which
caused something of a stir in this as
well as the allied countries, appar-
emily has served to reopen the whole
subject to negotiation.
The supreme councils reply was re-
ceived at the state department, but
was withheld. London adyices SAID
the note was conciliatory The state
department made no comment on this,
but it was prettey well understood
that the entente premiers' communica-
ton had at least removed the Adri-
attic question from the status in which
was after the council communicated
its settlement to Jugo Slavia in the
the form of an ultimatum without
the United States being a party to the
agreement.
The Jugo SIavs were given the op-
ton of accepting the councils plan or
submitting to the carrying out of the
Adriatic provisions of the secret
treaty of London, negotiated before
the United States entered the war.
In this connection, it was disclosed
recently, that President Wilson, in his
note, again came out definitely against
the application Of this treaty.
1t was understood that the Presi-
dent had taken the position that re-
CARELESS of the Treaty of Vertailles
and the League of Nations the United
States should be a party to the Adri-
attic settlement because of its position
as a co-belligerent
Ask U. S. to Show the Way.
While the premier's reply was being
received at the state department from
Ambassador Davis a suggestion came
from Europe that the premiers had
invited the American government 70
indicate the practical steps that could
be taken to execute the original agree
ment, if it should be accepted by Italy
and Jugo-Slavia.
Under the terms OF that settlement,
to which the United States was a
party, Fiume was to be erected into
free state under the League of Ma
tions and in other respects the general
principles of self-determination of the
peoples affected was to be put into
force
