LABOR FEDERATION IN
 EFFORT TO MAKE PEACE
Starts Mediation in Dispute Over the Coal River Galleries in
 West Virginia

Washington, Feb. 25.-Amerlcan Federation of Labor officials today began mediation proceedings in an effort to compose labor difficulties growing out of the non-union oper- ations of the Coal River collieries in West Virginia, indirectly financed by the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers.
 John l.. Lewis president of the United Mine Workers of America, and Warren s. Stone, chief of the Brotherhood, attended the discus sions. while Frank Morrison, secre- tary of the Federation, Martin r.. Ryan of the Garments union. and John r. Noonan of the Electrical Workers. acted as mediators. The conference began behind close doors.
 Under MT, Stones leadership the engineers have gained control of investment banking establishments and these. in turn. have financed the collieries company three years ago, largely by sale of its securities to railroad engineers.
 The coal company, after operating under union contracts for consid- erable period, finally turned to open shop scales of pay and working ar rangements, and thereupon was promptly put under the strike ban by the mine workers.

Fined for Fighting in
 Grove Street Store

Constanty Skablosky and Adolph Rodinski, both of 67 Grove street, were fined sls and costs when they were arraigned before Justice Henry P. Roche in police court this morn ing on charges of drunkenness and assault. Clarence Taradine of IS Orange street, arraigned on charge of assault, was discharged. The men were arrested last night in the store at 42 Grove street by Patrol man William O'Mara after they are alleged to have assaulted each other.
 O'Mara told the court that the three men were fighting at the en- trance to the store, Skablosky and Rodinski both being under the in f1uence of liquor. The policeman said that Taradine was engaged in the scuffle but had taken his arrest in good part and assisted him in placing the two other men under arrest.
 The case against Elliott Gable, 61 Connecticut avenue, charged with indecent assault, was continued un- til Saturday morning for trial after Assistant Prosecutor William M. Greenstein informed the court that he felt 1t proper that the case be presented by Prosecutor Joseph G.. Woods who has been in touch with the developments since the action was taken against Gable. Atty. Saul Waskowitz protested against the continuance, but assented when Justice Roche said that the assign ment for trial Saturday would be made peremptory.

BambinO Must Take 0f 10 More Play Ball

Hot Springs, Ark, Feb. 25.-Babe Ruth has trimmed his form down to 225 pounds and is only 10 pounds from the 215 mark he strives to reach before departing for the Yam kees' training camp in Florida. He has lost 20 pounds as his reward for many hours of swelterlng in hot water and vapor baths and long daily treks over the golf courses.
 Ruth added horseback riding to his routine yesterday when he hired a diminutive mount and cantered over many miles of Ozark trails. But Babe said that the exercise probabl was moro strenuous for the horse than himself.
 Rivalry of a nature other than baseball was sprung into existence between the Washington and New York camps here. Ruth and Goose" Goslin, the Senators batting hero Of the last worlds series, are engaging in almost daily golf matches.
 Manager Iris Speaker and Coach Jack McAllister led the Cleveland battery men to Wilmington Park for another workout today.

By Hortense Saunders

New York, Feb. 25.-Spell style with three S's this season-slimness, suppleness and simplicity.
 Achieve these three none too easy qualities and you will have that grace and eelgance that character izes spring and summer fashions, II says Henri Bendel, New Works lead ing style mentor.
 Tt takes an experienced eye 10 detect the nuances and subtleties that have crept into clothes. There is a simplicity that is deceiving and baffling-that of the artist who sub mits finished work instead of a sketch.
 Gowns seem to be molded to the body, but there is no suggestion of scantiness. There is extreme sup pleness with no extra bit of material anywhere. There is slenderness even though skirts are ruffled, pleated and frilled,"
 An indefinable grace has been in- jected into the straightline frock be- loved by American women, Bendel says. This has been achieved by means of godets, flounces, circular insets and pleated sections that give an entirely new feeling about the hem without changing the close hip line.

 COOlidge's Debt Stand

Paris, Feb. 25.-Dispatches from Washington to the effect that Presi- dent Coolidge had advised less talk about debts has caused satisfaction In French official and financial cir cles, particularly around the Bourse. where it was remarked that such a suggestion might be made with profit to some French statesmen and political leaders.

Coolidge's Rent Bill
 Is Practically Killed

Washington, Feb. 25.-The bill in- troduced in congress several weeks ago designed to control rents in the District of Columbia and which was favored by President Coolidge was practically killed today in the house when the rules committee declined to give it preferred status in the legislative jam now confronting that body.
 The committee took the position that with only a week of the ses- sion left. even if passed by the house the measure would stir up a f1libuster in the senate that would kill off other legislation.
