4O,OOO MINERS GET
 HIGH WAGE OFFER
Rate Equal to Highest Ever Paid
 in Mining Industry

Pittsburgh, Aug. 23.-Forty thous- and bituminous miners in Westmore- land and Fayette counties today had before them an offer of increased wages equal to the highest the mining industry has ever paid.
 Ffl their two counties generally known as the non-union field before the call of the miners strike, many of the men are now organized and developments are awaited from the heart of the bituninous region.
 Union leaders, representing 75 To- calls controlling more than 10000 miners, voted almost unanimously at Footedale, Fayette county to pass up the average increase of nearly s2.5o a day until recognition of the union was accorded by the independent com panies making the offer. Most of these men were striking employees of the H. C. Prick and w J Rainey interests, two of the country's largest independ- ents
 Mine operators today were prerar- ed for a rush of returning miners and extra deputies were on hand to pre- vent disorder.

NEXT OLYMPIAD IS
 ID SURPASS OTHERS
Elaborate Plans Made for Event
 in Paris in 1924

Boston. Aug. 23 - (By Associated Press)-Although the Olympic games to be held at Paris are nearly two years away the plans are well ad- vanced the program is virtually com plete and all indications point to an Olympiad surpassing any held before. This Is the estimate of Allan H. Muhr International secretary of the Olym piad, who came to this country as cap tain of the French Davis cup tennis team and is remaining in connection with his Olympic duties.
 International representation will be greater than in any previous Olym- piad, not only because new nations, born out of the world war will parti- cipate for the first time, but because older nations, especially those of South America will send their first teams Japan, which sent only a handful of athletes to Antwerp will be real contender at Paris, the sec retary said. Austria Is already an en- trant Germany also may compete again.
 6O,OOO In Stadium
 The Olympic games center in the events of track and field, for these a great stadium is under way at Col ombes, to seat 6o,000 persons. Col ombes is three miles west of Paris on the opposite side of the city from the Pershing Stadium. This structure will be only one of, three stadia on the 50 acre site, as swimming and tennis each will have stands seating 10000 persons. The tennis stadium will serve also as the scene of the fencing, wrestling, boxing and weight lifting competitions for which the seating capacity may be increased by 5000 more. In no previous games, accord ing to Mir Muhr, have the competitive fields been so well grouped.
 The centering of activities extends also to the quartering of the athletes. The congestion of Antwerp will be obviated and the athletes will be kept close to their work by a project to house 1,5oo of them in special struc- lures on the Colombes plot Conven- tent to these and to the principal sta dium a separate field with tracks and pits will be laid out for training pur- poses.
 The rowing events will take place on the river Seine, with straight away of two miles, allowing four boats abreast.

REILLY WINS OUT;
 CAH|LL ARRESTED
Meriden Man Gets Nomination for
 Sheriff. Registrar in Bonds

New Haven, Aug 23.-Thomas E. Cahill, general democratic regis .trar of voters of New Haven coun- ty, was arrested last night immed- lately following the closing of the polls in the democratic primary con- test which developed into a test of supremacy between the organization and separate faction under the leadership of County Sheriff Thomas l.. Reilly of Meriden and Edward P. Heating, county taller. The speci- fc charge as contained in the war rant against Cahill is:
 Failure to file true primary lists with the town clerk in accordance with the statutes of Connecticut v and was issued by Assistant City Attorney Eugene F. Farley, on of the Reilly Heating fac ton.
 Very Heavy Vote.
 According to semi official returns from the primaries Sheriff Reilly was victorious, carrying 21 out of the 3s wards here. This means that he is entitled to s4 delegates as against only 46 for his opponent, Myles F.. Connolly of Waterbury. the organiza- ton candidate. The vote was unus- ually heavy, but despite predictions to the contrary everything went off in an orderly manner.
 The arrest of Cahill is the second in the past fight, Eugene J. Harri- gan, a deputy under Cahill, having been arrested last night on charges of failing to continue the name of the complaining elector, William A. McGrath, of Ward 25, on the pri- mary list Cahill was released u,n- der tounds of $500 to insura his ap- pearance in the city court tomor- row, but it is expected that a con- tinuance will be asked for, similiar to the procedure in the Harrigan case today.

Fight Will Continue.

The fight promises to continue, politicians say up to the last min- ute of the election, one faction be- ing headed by Sheriff Reilly and Jailer Heating, arrayed against the organization which seems to recog- nize Cahill and Frank S. Bergin, chairman of the democratic town committee, as leaders, and charges galore have been interchanged be- tween the two for some time. The Ectii. Heating faction Is nov accus- ing the Cahill- -Bergin contingent of both withholding names that rightful- ly belong on the democratic list and also charge many names have been erased by the registrar and his dep- uties without authority.
