British Miners Firm In De.
cision; Not To Meet Until
Next Friday

London, April 1S.-Governmental
authorities were anxious today to re-
open negotiations between the miners
and the owners with the hope Of
bringing about settlement of the
wage question. which caused the
strike of miners on April /. There
seemed little probability that mem
bers of the miners federation would
take steps to meet before next Fri
day, when miners representatives
will confer here.
In the meantime Great Britain is
facing serious coal shortage and
extraordinary measures are taken to
exc out present stocks until some ad-
justmcnt can be made.
Beginning today, train services
were curtailed.
a mass meeting Of the coal port
ers union in London. yesterday.
adopted resolutions stating that in
view Of the importation OF American
and German coal. the union would
refuse to bunker any full loads. and
decline to tranship imported coal.
Since the beginning Of the strike
vessels have been bunkerec only for
outward voyages, taking in foreign
coal for their return.
The meeting adopted resolutions of
sympathy for the miners. The coal
porters belong to the National Union
of Dock Laborers. the secretary of
which. James Sexton. member Of
parliament declared the dock labor
ers were ready to support the miners,
but that after the government had
accepted the suggestions OF Frank
Hodges, secretary Of the miners
union, which the miners delegates
later rejected. there was no longer
any basis upon which the dock work
ers could continue their support of
the coal Strikke.

: Reports Speculative.

London, April 18.-(By the Associ-

ton contemplated by the Allies
against Germany to be taken May 1
were characterized in British official
circles today as highly speculative and
hypothetical.
These reports. it wcs pointed out,
were based on the assumption that
Germany neither intends to pay ade-
quate reparations or to offer a new
and acceptable solution for the rep
arations problem, and British Of
ficials are declining as yet to concur
in any such assumption.
However, should Germany not offer
solution before May 1. the British
will, it is stated. consider that she is
deliberately blocking the treaty and
the British will act whole heartedly
with France in any action necessary
to enforce the treaty.

What the Facts Arc.


Minot friends Of Mr.. Nestos who are
familiar with the conscientious man
ner in which he discharged the duties
OF the office of states attorney under
stand. as a result OF this editorial.
with what disregard of facts and the
truth the Courier-Eews editorial are
prepared and how anxious the leaders
nt the league are to misrepresent and
lie about the Minot man.
Examination Of the records reveals
that Mr.. Nestcs resigned as states
attorney Of Ward county April 5. 1916,
giving as his reasons therefore the
following statement which appeared
in Minot newspapers of that date:
MY experience in the states
attorneys Office has shown me
that practically tho undivided at

J The reason. Mr.. Eestos was to be
absent from the county was that he
