MORE HOPEFUL
VIEW is TAKEN
COAL SITUATION
Miners Vote Continued Conf
dence in Secretary
of the Union.
(sy The Associated Press,

LONDON, April 22.-The coal situation
has taken another promising turn in con-
sequence of Premier Lloyd Georges un-
expected action in calling a fresh parlay
and the fact that the conference of min
ers' delegates, the largest in the history
of the federation representing a member
ship of nearly 100000 men, today voted
continued confidence in Frank Hodges,
secretary of the miners union.
After adjournment late this afternoon
OF the conference which the prime min
lister had with mine owners and the min
ers' leaders. il was learned that facts
were introduced which would be consid-
cred over the weekend and which would
again be the subject of discussion at
further meeting to be. held Monday. The
position was considered so hopeful at the
close of this conference, which was held
at the board of trade, that Mr.. Lloyd
George, who previously had intended tc
remain in London over night, started inn
mediately for Lympnezo so as to be able
to meet Premier BRAND of France to-
morrow at Dover.
Unofficial and unconfirmed reports are
current tonight that the government is
disposed TO agree to a sort of national
wages pool as distinct from profits pool,
and is strongly urging the owners tc
make a BETTER wage offer. Although the
miners are firm on the demand for
national pool, the fact that they have
not withdrawn their confidence in Mr..
Hodges leaves the hope that compro-
mise settlement is possible.

MIAMI, April 22.--Webb Jay. Chi
cago broker and sportsman, and party
of four We're brought back to Miami
late this afternoon from Gun Cay. off
the Bahama Islands, where they had
been stranded for 13 days, living prin-
cipally on fish.
With Jay were his wife, Charles r..
Deshiel, president of the Deshiel Mo-
tor company, of Chicago, his wife, and
negro servant.
Three weeks ago they put off from
Miami in the speed boat Sue j. for a
pleasure. trip to Mimini, in the Ba-
hama Islands, 45 miles from here. The
trip across was without incident, but
on the return the party met rough
sea and the little 35 foot boat was in
capable of battling its way through
the rolling waves. When about Is
miles out, Jay attempted to turn his
boat back to Mimini, but was carried
to the south. Finally he managed to
steer into the key where the party
went ashore. There they found but
one white man and handful of ma
tives
For almost fortnight without a
change Of clothing, the party waited
daily watching the sea for some boat
to hail to carry them back to Florida
Friends of the party, who have
made this their winter home, became
alarmed as the days went by, and their
apprehensions were increased yester-
day when Captain Charles Pease of
the steamer Corsair, reported that he
had passed the little boat at sea on his
trip from Bimini to Miami.
At dawn today, three seaplanes were
sent out to comb the coast and islands
Circling low over Gun Cay shortly
after noon the pilot of one discerned a
figure frantically waving a white rag
Descending and making his way in
land, he came upon the party. Tat
tered and torn and without a change
of clothing during the fortnight they
told a thrilling tale of their hardships
and efforts to find food enough to
keep them alive until rescued.
