MINERS DEMANDS
 ARE TURNED DOWN

NEW YORK, January 31-Operat ors of bituminous mines in the tristate competitive field today turned down in it's entirety list of demands sub mitted by the United Mine Workers of America as the basis for 1923 working agreement.
 Among the rejected demands was one for six hour day, five-day week advanced by the union in 1920, but it was said the union did not attach any great importance to that demand at this time.
 The fact that the operators were prepared to ask concessions equally unacceptable to the miners was all that saved the conference from an abrupt collapse, for it was believed their very divergence offered path to compromise.

.POACH[Rs ARE GREAT
 MENACE FOx HAMMERS

SEATTLE, Jan. 31.-Poachers are a serious menace to fox farming ln Alaska, according to Dr. B. c. Mathis, Of Petersburg. an officer of the Blue Fox Farmers Association of South eastern Alaska, who was here recent ly on business connected with the as sociation.
 Skins of blue foxes are so valuable he said, that the poacher in a few days trapping on some isolated farm is enabled to make considerable mon- ev. The Territorial legislature will consider a bill making it unlawful to sell a blue or silver fox skin that has not been properly registered and stamped by Territorial inspector.
 The quarrelsome nature of the sil yer fox is a serious obstacle to sll yer fox farming, according to Doctor Mathis, who said the blue foxes were more peaceable and therefore easier to raise. Most of the farms are on small, isolated islands and foxes are permitted to live under as nearly nat. ural conditions as possible. The foxes, unable to rustic enough food for themselves are fed on cooked and smoked fish, breakfast foods and oth, CT cereals.
