MILLION MINERS
 STRIKE
Men Leave Coal Mines Second Time In Less Than Ten Months.

London, April All work ceased in the coal mines of the United King dom at midnight with the exception of a very few districts and approxi- mately 100000 miners were idle today as a result of the controversy over the wage issue. In only two collieries in Yorkshire, one in Northumbel land, one in Scotland and one in North Wales the men have promised to continue at their posts without prejudice to any terms that may be agreed upon but all other pit workers, Including pump men and ventilating men came out with the miners.
 Danger that the mines may be flooded threatens Strenuous efforts are being made everywhere to enroll volunteers Yorkshire pump men have decided to remain at work and hope was expressed today that others would follow their example.
 The first effect of the strike has been the placing of orders with American coal merchants. Although the country's stock of coal is esti- mated at 100000 tons, the price of household fuel already has risen two shillings per ton. London and other urban centers are believed to have several weeks supply on hand owing to the fact that export of coal has been stopped by the board of trade
 Apprehension is felt that the na- tiona1 union of railway men and the transport workers union may be tempted to strike in sympathy with the coal dinners.
 Under the emergency act of parlia- ment the government is in a, position to deal sternly with the strike situa- hon by employing troops and military measures
 It is believed that the government will use naval reserves to work the pumps in mines that have been de- serted by the pumpmen to prevent their being flooded and ruined.
 The wage reductions announced by the operators range from 20 cents to $1.50 Q day.
 The effect of the coal strike is all ready being fe@. The government is rationtng coal and limiting the amount for domestic consumption. Train schedules are being reduced and industrial plants are preparing for part time operation.

PAINTERS WILL ACT TONIGHT ON
 BOSSES COURSE

Action will be taken tonight by Bidgepot painteS on the severance of union relations by the Brid dgeport and United Master Painters associa- tion- After a several hours debate b ythe joint conference committee of both factions last night, the course of the bosses was decided The union was formally notified. and at a spe- cial meeting tonight will consider the new hpaSe of the situation.
 The beosses announced last night that in the future they would rec ognize no wage scale, and will here after pay employees on a sliding basis determined by individual ability. They in addition refuse to renew the wage agreement, that expired yester- day, for another year. The agree ment provided the wage of s1 an hour, but recently the bosses at tempted to effect at 20 per cent. de- crease but were vigorously opposed by the union members.
 The action of the master painters affects approximately 45e ltgfHterS in Brgdheport.

TAXPAYERS
 FILL OFFICE OF COLLECTOR

Bridgeport's municipal New Year is being observed today by hundreds of taxpayers by the payment of the first instalment Aof the annual taxes. Collector Howard F. Smiths office in the City Hall was swamped all day, an endless stream of property own- CTS filling the corridors of the build ing awaiting a.dmittance since early morning.
 Additional clerks have been taken on to adequately handle the unuSu- ally heavy volume of business. and the crowds have been well cared for. The twice g. year plan of pawn ent is in force, and but one-half the an- nnai amount is due today. The next and last instaIment is due Sept. 1.
 Yesterday marked the limit for the ipayunen< of 1919 taxes, and hordes of tardy property owners thronged the office throughout the day. Approxi- mate1y s26,eoo in back taxes was collected yesterday by Collector Smith, who, however, found it neces- sary to file between 2,500 and 5000 liens on property, for which taxes had not been paid, with Town Clerk c. E. Winton last night

! It was given additional point by
 tthe fact that it was communicated
 officially to the allied states by which
 Hungary is surrounded-Czech tSlovakia, Jugo Slavia, Rumania, and 1 Poland, at least the first three of (which comprising the little entente'' lhave declared themselves ready to take military action against the ! Hapsburg restoration
 1 Meanwhile advices reaching Paris kthrough official and other reliable
 Shannels gave no confirmation of the
 Eumors that ex-Emperor Charles was fmarching upon Budapest at the head ! of a large body of troops to replace himself upon the throne.
 Official advices to the French }foreign office emphasized that Charles was still at Steinamanger, near the Austrian frontier, that negotiations were in progress for his removal from Hungary, presumably back to Swift zerland, through Austria, and that quiet prevailed at Budapest, the
 Hungarian capital
 Direct Budapest advices carried
 official denial of the reports that

The Foreign Office has no official leonfrmaGon of the press report that Admiral Horthy has resigned It was {explained at the Foreign Office that the Allies are not interfering but are leaving the opposition measures to lCzech oSlovakia, Roumania and IJugo-Slavia, confident that these states will not permit Charles to as- ce entdhe Hungarian throne.

HORSE BURNED
 HAY AND WOOD ARE DESTROYED

One horse was burned to death and wood and hay were damaged early this morning when fire of unknown origin partially destroyed a barn on the property of w. Pilash, Mckinley avenue. The cause of the blaze is be- ing investigated by Chief Daniel E. Johnson, of the Fire department.
 The building in which the fire oc- cured is of wood and concrete con- struction, and the flames, when dis covered were burning through the roof. Two alarms were turned in, and the firemen had a hard time fighting the blaze Several attempts wre made to save the unfortunate horse, btu all met with failure on ac- count of the great headway that the blaze had gained before the arrival of the firemen. Damage is etimated at about $3,000.
 Another alarm at 9:25 o'clock this morning called the firemen to the home of Joe. Paoletti, BPS Pembroke street, where a fire was in progress between teh partitions. Short work was made of this blaze, and damage will not amount to more than s25.

. Two of Bridgeports most influential business men head the list of citizens upon whose petition the temporary injunction has been granted. They are Walter B. Iashar, head of the American Chain Co.,; Sumner Simp- son, head vf the Raybestos Co.,, which does business throughout the world in brake Things and other automo- bile supplies.
 Associated with them are D. Fair child Wheeler, of the Bridgeport Trust Co.,; Guy P. Miller of the Bridgeport Brass Co.,; Samuel Hawley of the Bridgeport Savings bank; Will liam T. H:ncks, of Hincks Brothers, oankers and dealers in securities; Richard Oppel of the Hadley Furni- ture Co.,; Frank D. Bell, of Meigs 6. So.' clothlers; and Andrew W. Coo per, of the Rowland Dry Goods Co.,
 The complaint alleges that the S50,00 is for work done upon orders for which no appropriation had been made. That it is for work done with out advertising, or competitive bid dIngS and without waiver
 . The charter of the city provides in very certain terms that no board or officer of the city shall incur any ob- legation in behalf of the city unless funds have been duly appropriated for the specific purpose.
 What Charter Provides
 The 'eharten CT provides that projects AoA NsiiASiA PNVv OI uiOIe IS to De eXs pended must be advertised and put to competition, unless the mayor shall sign a waiver.
 Despite the clear language Of the City charter, there has always been a disposition on the part of boards and city officers to exceed their appro- priations, and deficits have been re- peatedly covered in by the tax board.
 This evil, which The Times has steadily and urgently opposed, did not assume excessive magnitude until the period of the present administra-
