London. Apfll l.--Ine couhtry-" iue cessation of coal production through : out Great Britain's coal area today because of the miners strike thus far has not been productive, of trouble in any of the mines where the enginemen are reported to have stuck to their posts to prevent the pits being flooded,
 This raised the belief in some quar- ters that the fight will not be long. especially as the miners lack the funds necessary to continue long struggle.
 Meantime certain of the big iron and steel industries. in order to preserve the works from the consequences of a stoppage of coal supplies closed down today. Others op the northwest coast of England are expected to shut down next week
 So far as negotiations between the mine owners and the men are com cerned. some members of the coal owners Association with authority to negotiate have remained in London, while Frank Hodges. secretary of the miners union. Is here, authorized to treat for the men if favorable op- portunity occurs. Government circles are reported to be slightly more op- tlmistic regarding the situation in view of the action of the owners and others in safeguarding the pits from flooding.

UNUSUAL CALM IN ENGLISH STRIKE
 STILL UNbROKEN
Neither Side Has Made Least Approach Toward Negotia- tion-LiveIy Debates in
 Parliament Likely
pr Associated Press

London. April i.--The universal cessa tion of work by the coal miners has taken effect with remarkable quietude, contrast with all recent labor disputes whether on the part of the railway men, the miners or in industries. The course of these previous disputes was charac- terized by active conferences and nego- tiations between the parties concerned government all of whom displayed anxiety to find q path of settlement.
 On this occasion there has been noth- ing of the kind since Thursdays meet ing of the board of trade. Neither side nas made the least approach toward ne- gotiations. This is explained partly. as far as the government Is concerned, by the fact that abolition of control of the coal industry is considered to relieve the ministers of the responsibility of inter vening in the dispute. The government holds that it is matter to be settled between. the miners and the mine owners.
 Up to the present the order withdraw ing the engineers and pumpmen from the mines has been largely ignored Whether this is with the cognizance of the miners federation leaders owing to the general depreciation against remos- ing the men on the part of the news papers is not known, but the general belief expressed is that the men have not been withdrawn owing to -desire not to prejudice the situation pending T conference of labor's triple alliance next Wednesday Until then events probably will mark lime.
 minor sequel to the dispute is tha. the House of Lords will reassemble eight days before the time stipulated for them to. do so The House of Commons had adjourned until April and the House Of Lord, until April l2. Under the emerg ency proclamation the government is bound to convene Parliament within five days Hence a royal proclamation was issued tonight converting both houses for Monday.
 Lively debates are anticipated in Par liament as not only the laborite but the liberal press. while conceding that the miners under the present exceptional de- pression must expect some reduction in wages, throw the whole blame for the dispute upon the government on the ground that the abolition of government control of mines five months before the proper time. merely because the industry
 is suffering adverse conditions. is un- Justified and unfair to the miners. It Is also argued that instead of the mine owners having given the miners an ulti. n,aturn to accept wage reductions settled by the mine owners themselves. an op portunity should have been given for ioint discussions.

 According to passengers the West Hartland partly supported the Govern or with her nose driven deeply into the Governor's side, but as soon as the frcighter backed clear the passenger vessel began to sink
 The collision occurred less than . mile off shore directly opposite the Point Wilson lighthouse, near Port Townsend. in the Strai; of Juan d,, Fuca. The Governor Is believed to lie in about 9 fathoms of water. Accora ing to Purser Holser the Governor was on her course, 1t being customary to steam close to shore in making the Point Wilson light

GERMANY MUST PAY IS ATTITUDE 0F J. s.
Huns Understood to Have Pro- posed Assuming Liability for
 Part of Allied Debts
By Associated Press

Washington, April 1.--Rumors via Lon don of conversations between Germany and the United States as to reparation payments brought an authoritative state ment from administration officials today toward Germany is that she must accept her responsibility for the war and pay her obligations to the fullest extent she is able.
 The London advices from Berlin said it was understood Germany had made certain proposals to the United States re- garding reparation payments, including "a suggestion that she assume liability for part of the debts of allied powers to the United States. There was no confirma- tion of the receipt of any such pro- Iosal, although Commissioner Dresel at Iserlin has reported on conversations with German officials in which the separations question came up. The nature of these conversations was not disclosed.
 In connection with the subject, how ever, occasion was taken to make per- fectly clear the general attitude of the new administration toward those in the controversy with the allied powers and Germany which led to occupation of ad- elitional German territory. The policy of this government was summed up in the terse assertion that Germany must ac- cept full responsibility for the war and pay her liabilities to the full extent ot her ability
 POPULAR PROPOSAL
 Berlin April 1.-The suggestion that the United States become the creditor of Ger many by accepting German bonds in lieu of the debt the entente powers owe the United States. is popular with the Germans who have proposed it several times before the recent overtures
 It is regarded as unlikely, however, in Berlin official circles that the united States will seriously consider such a proposition until the entente announces positively the total reparations claim it will attempt to collect from Germany. This should be done by May l. according to the Versailles treaty. After this sum is announced the financial experts Will be able to judge Germany's ability to pay.

ALLIES PRESENT
 PROTEST AGAINST
 RETURN OF CHARLES
Austria Grants Safe Conduct to Former Emperor on His Return to Switzerland
 Through Country
Rx Associated Press

Vienna, April 1.-Austria has granted safe conduct to former En- peror Charles to go to Switzerland, not only in principle but in fact. The British, French and Italian ministers called upon Chancellor Mayr this morning and presented the protest of the powers against Hapsburg res toration,
 While the attitude of the entente had been known, the incident is regarded hands of the government in case of now unlooked-for eventualities
 Overnight developments presaged an early curtain on the last act of the drama of Steinamanager and the way is all prepared for the former Emperors departure. Reports from inside political sources in Budapest indicate that per- sons who compron1iseti themselves in the adventure already are seeking way out The firm attitude of the entente and the menace of the military power of Czecho-Slovakia, Jugo-Slavia and Ru- mania are said to have brought even the Inaddest monarchists to sanity AL though military impotent, Austrias un- compromising attitude showed them they could look for no aid here.
 TO RETURN TO EXILE
 It is learned that diplomatic circles here this morning received assurances from Budapest that Charles now realizes the futility of his hope and is prepared to return to his Swiss exile. It is un- derstood he will await the action of the Hungarian Parliament this afternoon and bow as gracefully as possible to it's con sri nal a al- ready has been foreshadowed in the Vienna monarchist organs.
 The police are endeavoring to learn where Charles spent Good Friday night but as the caretaker of the palace of Count Erdody, one of the former Elm peror's supporters, is the counts father in-law, it has been difficult to make him talk about visitors to the castle.
 It was learned today that few days preceding Easter at last 20 young aris' tocrats and former officers, applying for permits to travel, gave Steinamanger as their destination and snipe shooting as the object of their trips. It has beea noticed that many aristocrats have been prolonging their Easter stay in their country homes, despite the chill weather.
 ARRANGE DEPARTURE
 Vienna, April 1.--Completion of ar rangements for the departure from Stenamanger of former Emperor Charles is announced by the newspapers. He will leave tonight on a special train, accompanied by two British staff off cers and an escort of entente troops, ac- cording to the newspapers.
 The train will proceed by way of Vienna Salzburg and Buche. passing Vienna at night All the stations are tc be closed while the train is passing.
 
 BISHOP HEADED MOVE
 Budapest. April 1.-Bishop Rott of the diocese of Beszprem was. according to the hest information obtainable here, the predominating influence in urging former Emperor Charles to attempt to regain the Hungarian throne.
 It is alleged also that the anti-Semtic organization, Awakening Hungary, had an important share in the plot. US president. Deputy Szmrechanyi, has been placed under virtual arrest.

APPOINTED IN 1918


 viscount French was appointed lord lieutenant of lreand in 1918. At the out break of the Worth war he was in com mand of the British forces in France and Flanders, position he held until he was relieved by Field Marshal Sir Doug las Haig in December, 1913. One of his great achievements was the famous bat tie of Ypres, the winning of which barred the channel ports from German in- vasion. On his retirement in France he was created Viscount French of Ypres
 Much surprise was evinced when French was made lord lieutenant of Ire land. The Irish nationalists expressed the belief that his administration would be characterized by repressive measures. Hie rule in Ireland never proved a happy one, because of his strong stand against the radicals and his declaration that a Sim Fein republic would never be es- tsh,ished there. In December, 1919, an unsuccessful attempt was made to as sassinate Viscount French while he was motoring in Ireland His party was am pushed and fired on. but the lord lieuten- ant escaped injury, For some time there have been rumors of the possible resig- nation of yiScount French.

TALBOT SUCCEEDS
 FRENCH AS IRISH
 GOVERNOR GENERAL
Extensive Changes Are Made { in British Cabinet, But Sig nificance of ShuffIe Is
 Not Understood
By Associated Pres.

London, April 1.-Field Marshal Viscount French of Ypres will be succeeded as lord lieutenant and gov ernor general of Ireland by Edmund Bernard Talbot, who has held the post of joint parliamentary secretary for the treasury.
 Sir Robert s. Horne, president of the board of trad. has been appointed chan cellor of the exchequer in succession to J. Austen Chamberlain Stanley Bald win, parliamentary secretary to the treasury will become the new president of the board of trade
 The London Times, referring to Lord Edmund Talbot as the most popular chief unionist whip for generation, says editorially
 Whether his qualified tions as the fore most lay Catholic i'll England will rec ommend him as strongly to the Irish peo- pie as the government seems to expect is an open question; but as he would scarcely have accepted the appointment without some assurance that the system of administration which marked the later years of Viscount Frenchs vice royalty will hardly be maintained in al! it's unin- telligent rigor, he may enter his most important office under favorable aus pices.
 The Times further remarks that the Irish problem cannot be solved by change in persons unless there is change in policy. and concluded by speaking of the new appointments as a whole as follows:
 The insignificanee of the extensive shuffle and deal lies in the circumstances that it contains no clear indication ol policy It is a whirl of persons effected apparently without inteligible>metho or plan"
