COAL STRIKE FINISH
NOT YET IN SIGHT

PITTSBURG, Pa, April Icon
trary to their usual custom thou
sands Of coal and coke workers in
the Fayette county field did not
quit Saturday for the observance
of the Easter holidays, but contin-
ued at work, particularly in mines
and coke plants against which the
United Mine Workers have direct
ed their strength in an effort to
extend the coal strike. In the Sec
tons where non-union minersehave
Joined the strike in large numbers
there was little change in the situ-
alton, the only report of further
detection being from the Washing.
ton Coal and Coke company, where
it was said an additional twenty.
five men had failed to report for
duty.
The Dunbar furnace of the Amer
lean Manganese Manufacturing COM
pany and the Bi-Proddct coke plant
were closed down owing to the ex.
tension of the strike to the compa-
ny's mines last week. About 500
men were thrown out of work.
Railroad loadings of coal and coke
on the principal railroads tapping
the region showed a slight increase
in shipments of coal and coke for
the three days ended last night, and
further slight increase in the num-
Der Of cars ordered for today. The
change was very slight, however,
and leaders of both sides admitted
it really meant nothing important.
Leaders Of operators and miners
today conceded that next Tuesday
will nave an important bearing on
the outcome of the strike in the
coal region. A mass meeting has
been called by the United Mine
Workers for Connellsville for to-
morrow afternoon in an effort to
bring out the Frick company en-
ployes in that vicinity. A general
suspension is anticipated on Monday
for the holiday and results, it is con-
coded, will not be noticeable until
Tuesday when the whistles blow.
STEEL PLANTS WON'T FEEL
STRIKE FOR WEEKS YET
YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio, April IT,
Steel plants of the Youngstown dis
trict will feel no effect of the coal
strike for at least another week, Of
ficials said today. Operations next
week Will ne lIlClSdSSup dCCOI ulIlS "
schedules given out at company of
fees.
Independent plants will be working
at about 80 per cent of capacity next
week, as against 70 to rs per cent
this week. Three steel corporation
plants will continue to run at full
capacity with the exception of blast
furnace.
Iron blast production remains the
same, the increase being in finishing
mills. Steel operators are apprehen
sive that a continuance of the union
miners successes in the Con-
neIlsville coke fields will cause a cur
tailment of blast furnace operations,
though the danger is said not i'm
mediately at hand.
Further stiffening of steel prices
due to the uncertainty of the futuri-
ty market appeared today in the re-
port, of, a sale by an independent
company of 1000 tons OF sheet bars
at $33 a ton, an advance of 50 a ton,
and of 5000 tons of small billets at
the same prices and same advance.
Both were for delivery in thirty
days.

STAMFORD

The sentiment of the residents of , Long Beach are being sounded out py agents of Pleasure Beach and found to be overwhelmingly in favor Of a boulevard from Pleasure Beach to the populated section of Lordship.
 It has been argued that the con struction of such a road would greatly enhance the value of property along the shore and would soon pay for itself.
 Shore residents would appreciate khe road because it would give them a highway over which they could reach the ear line at Lordship- It has also been said that hundredA Of automo- bilists who do not visit the beach at the present time because Of the lack of good road, would take full advan- tage of the opportunity to take a nice drive along the short to the beaches
 Members of the town council plan to keep town expenditures as low as possible in order that the present tax rate may prevail or perhaps, even the btought down to a, lower figure. The council body is expected to start work 6n tue budget for the coming year within the next few weeks.

Not Much Money In
 Halibut Fishing

American fishermen are very pes Mn1istic as to the future of the halibut fishing industry of the Pacific coast. While a good catch of haibut was landed at Prince Rupert in June G. s76,100 pounds), prices have been unsatisfactory and very few of the fishermen and none of the shipping firms have made money, says Consul E. A. Wakefield. Prince Rupert, in a report to the F|oodstuffs Division of the Department of Commerce With the fishermen, it is not so much a question of the price as it is the continued high prices of fuel, gear and stores, and with the shipping firms it is largely a question of prices on the Chicago, New York and Bos- ton markets.
 There were e12,5O0 pounds of fresh salmon landed at Prince Rupert as compared with i 426,000 pounds last June. Cod total1ed 54,300 pounds, herring 45O,5o0 pounds and founders 203,9o pounds.

Africans Delight
 Tn Condensed Milk

A meal of bread and condensed milk might please the small boy occasion ally, but would he care for it as regular diet? However, that is what groWn-ups have every day in Senegal, for their neon meal whan at work away from their families, says Consul W. J. Yerby, Dakar, in a report to the Department of Commerce. The natives of Senegal are very fond of sweets, and as most candy is usually too expensive for them to purchase they consume large quantities of lump and cube sugar, and sweetened con densed milk. Sea biscuits are also highly reEshed, he says. The consul thinks that if American corn syrup and molasses were obtainable they would be very acceptable. In his opinion such an addition would in part a6d relish and flavor to the pres ent restricted condensed milk menu. Inexpensive candies, such as are sold in the five and ten cent stores ginger snaps, sweet crackers. Sweetened pop corn, etc, the consul thinks would be & cause of much rejoicing among the dusky 1aborers.

and to purchase shotguns, which they could use for killing wild boar and deer. But some of the shotguns were used on the Japanese settlers.
 BagobOS DiSarmcd.
 It became necessary for the con- stabulary to disarm the BagoboS. Their guns were taken up, and their bows and arrows, spears and even their working bolos-rhe American Governor returning these last when he assumed office last December. He also let it be known that if &he Bagoboss ceased their outrages they would have a chance to talk about getting their Shotguns returned.
 As dear to the Bagobos tribesnen as his gun or spear is his 'tanculo" a read and yellow head cloth given for the staying of an enemy. These also were taken up by the constabu- lary and are still with the govern ment at Davao. The truce has con tinued six months, but the Bagob os are not expected to "be good" in definitely unless a settlement is made; so it has been proposed that even though their claims to the land are flimsy-tho Bagobos neither read nor write and have, of course. no written records-the Government can we'll afford to pay them nominally for the land and set them back farther in to the hills, where the march of civil ization is remorselessly crowding them

Ralph Honeywell, American Not Heard From

Geneva, Aug. 9.-Exultation over the possibility of the United States winning the James Gordon Bennett cup for international balloon racing was tempered today by anxiety over the fate Of Ralph Honeywell, pilot of the American civilian balloon
 Honeywell and M. De Muytner pilot of a Belgian balloon, were still unac- counted for this morning. It was be- heved that they had either been car ried into some remote part of Rou- mania or had drifted out over the Black Sea.
 Unofficial tabulation gave Major Os- car Westover, pilot of the America n Army balloon, 690 miles and M. Bic miles.
 Official notification of the winner will not be made for several days.

Bagobo does not plant each season on the same tract of land; he is mo- madfc and burns off g. clearing for rice and root crops in one place this season and in another the next. His forefathers roamed over the whole country around Davao Gulf; he thinks there is no good reason why this sort , of thing should not continue.
 \> QuarrelS Arise.
 When a Japanese farmer goes out to clear his land to plant hemp there may be no evidence of anyones be- ing there before him. In any case the corporation for whom he works holds the land by lease from the government. But the next year Ba- gobos may wander into the district and establish a little hogan" of their own Then a quarrel arises. aug rnented by the fact that the Japanese and BagoboS must talk to each oth- CT, if at all, through an interpreter. Out of these quarre1S have come the Bagobo killings of Japanese-some- times over as trivial a thing as a sim gle banana stalk.
 Having so much trouble over the Bagobos' claims, the government in duced nlany of them to select lands and register them several years ago This made them, in the eyes Of the law, good property-owning citizens; they were allowed to put up the necessary bond, 100 pesos per gun,

At The Fort Armstrong,

Stirring melodrama with all of
the spectacular features and none
of the crudities of this popular
stple of entertainment" is the
classification that the motion pic
ture officials have given to the new
big Rex Beach production of his
great Alaskan railroad story, ''The
Iron Trail" which will be the fea-
ture at the Fort Armstrong theatre,
beginning today.
The new Beach production was
made under the watchful eye of the
famous author himself. Every 10
cation was approved by him as be-
ing faithful to the Alaskan coun-
try in which the theme of his story
is laid, and the all-star cast that
portdays the leading roles and the
incidental characters were ap-
proved by him before any of the
scenes were made.
In reproducing the spectacular
railroad construction scenes, Mr..
Beach in close collaboration with
Director r. William Neill elabo-
rated on his original vivid descr!p-
lions, and the reported result is
that the film version is twice as
blood-stirring as the book.
The production was made under
the direction of R. William Neill
from the scenario of Mr.. Beach S
prepared by Dorothy Farnum.
THE Iron Trail" is presented as
an exclusive first showing Thurs
day, Friday and Saturday at Fort
Armstrong theatre.
Little Miss Margaret Rainey, the
Rock Island dancer, who has done
such splendid classic dancing at
the theatre this week, will remain
during the balance of the week, as
many requests have been made
that she be retained. The unusual
elegant stage setting and gorgeous
electrical effects will be used all
week.

on Life summed up his impressions
after Witnessing a performance OF
The Bat" the tremendously sue
cessful dramatic play by Mary Rob
erts Rinehart and Avery Hopwood,
which Wagenhals and kemper pre-
sent at the Illinois theatre tonight
and tomorrow night And after all
has been said and done about 1.-The
Bat" Life's critic surely has offer
ed one of the best descriptions that
could possibly be given OF the play.
''The Bat" is primarily mystery
story AS such, 1t Is unquestion-
ably in a class ali by itself. In
fact, scores of critics have unhesi-
tatingly called it the greatest mys-
terry play ever produced. But there
is real drama and there is comedy
in THE Bat" In fact, there is
quite as many laughs as thrills dur
ing the play, and as entertainment,
pure and simple, it is 100 per cent
plus.
The story OF The Bat" never has
been told and 1t never will be II
the wishes of authors and mana
gers are respected. The first an
nouncements of the presentation of
1.-The Bat" as well as the first
words which catch the eye when
the audience opens its programs,
are a request that the story not be
told. And thus far. although the
play has been seen by more than
one million persons, it is doubtful
il one has ever broken the conf
dence imposed.
Suffice to say, the story OF THE
Bat" is well worth while. 1t must
be. No play in years has had quite
the success OF this play. Its run in
New York is now more than year
in length. And it is still going on.
In Chicago, 1.-The Bat" set a new
record for theatrical success when
it played for one entire year. Every
where it has been seen, the result
has been the same-absolute capac-
ity audiences at each and every
performance.
"The Bat" comes here. staged ex-
actly as it is presented in New
York and with an excellent cast.
