Predicts Developments.
E. S. Mccullough gave a ten-min
ute resume of the coal strike, in
which he predicted that the heAt
few days would see the matter be
gin to untangle He held that it
was unfair and unwarranted on the
part of the national miners orgsni'
zation to stop operations IN THIS
state because of difficulties else
where, and predicted that the buli,
OF tonnage in Ohio, Western Penh-
sylvania and Northern West Slt-
ginia would come out squ4rely IN
favor of an adjustment of assoCia-
tional lines which would be taVof-
able to an early settlement.
He said that the reserve stocks
of the country which totaled about
6o.0Oo,0 900 tons were being depleted
at the rate of about 100000 tons
week. and that the production was
constantly increasing. He SAID
that in the first week of the strike
the non-union mines were able t
produce only a hundred cars day
and that at the present time the
production in this district, wnltn
is made up of twelve counties cI
Northern West Virginia, has reacE.
ed the 400 car mark daily He said
that the strike was beginning p
pinch the miners, and that IN Hlany
cases there was actual want.

May Be Made.

fifth president of the Dali E1reann.
accompanied by kevin O'HiSs1ns.
and Hugh Kennedy, arrived from
Dublin this morning for resump-
ton of their negotiations with the
British cabinet and Prime Minis
ter Lloyd George.
Mr. Griffith and his colleagues
met Winston Churchill, secretary
for the colonies, during the morn
ing and conferred for two hours
with him. Mr.. Griffith declined to
make and statement regarding the
conference, but said another meet
ing would be held later in the day
and probably a further conference
tomorrow although no appoint,
ment for the latter has been made.
The appeal by Michael Collins.
for an investigation of the occu-
patton of Pettigoe by British.
troops is understood to be under
consideration by Mr.. Churchill.
After further consideration by the.
other British signatories to the
Anglo-Irish Treaty. the appeal VIII
be submitted to the full cabinet.
There has been no further ad-
vance on the Fermanagh border,
and little news has been received
from that area since the Pettigoe
affair. Beeleek, according to
latest reports, still is held by the
Republicans, who are stated to be
preparing to resist any attack.

rules of Marqnist of Queensbury: then

walked back to their respective corners
in the temporary ring constructed in
the Elk's clubrooms OF Chicago. and.
around which sat the elite OF Chicago S

advice by the nervous seconds was
whispered, and then the timekeeper's
clang announcing the opening of the
bout rang out.
