 Notwithstanding the official call ing off of the general strike, a sur vey of the situation in London this morning showed outward conditions little changed from previous days as far as transportation was concerned. General dislocation still was preva- llent. A majority of the strikers had not returned to work and the strike service trains and busses were still in operation.
 Many city workers were optimistic enough in the hope that the trains and buses would resume normal services 10 cancel their orders for motor cars. With full expectancy of being able to obtain transporta- ton they flocked toward railway sta tions and tramway depots, only to be confronted with such notices as mot enough strikers have returned Ito resume normal service" and strike service trains still operating
 Consequently they had to scram- ble toward the city and the situa- ton was as at any time during the strike. Many persons were later at their desks than during the past nine days. Special constables are still carrying out their duties, and the activity at the food dump in Hyde Park is unabated.

MINERS WAGES ID BE ADJUSTED NEXT
This Will Be EndeaYOr Of British
 Officials

London, May 13 0P>-Now that the general strike has ended in what Premier Baldwin described in the House of Commons as "a victory of the common sense of the best part of the kingdom,' the next step is a settlement of the mining trouble.
 The coal mine strike was not af- fected by yesterdays events and re- mains as t was before the general strike was called-with the miners and the mine owners deadloCkcd over the question of wages and with the miners out of the pits.
 Nothing has yet been made known as 10 what steps the government will take While the government is in nowise committed to accept ance of the memorandum of Sir Herbert Samuel, chairman of the royal coal commission, which somc time ago investigated the mining situation, it is thought likely the memorandum will have an impor- tant place in future negotiations for j. settlement.
 The Samnel memorandum pro- posed, among other things, that the governments coal subsidy be re- newcd for a reasonable time. The creation of a national wages board to revise miners wages; that there shall be no revision in previous wages without sufficient assurances that the royal commissions plan for reorganization of the coal industry shall be executed.
 It was understood today that a committee of the cabinet, appointed some time ago to deal with the whole situation, is considering the best means to bring the miners and mine owners together to confer on the basis of the proposals of Sir ] Herbert Samuel.
 1 The attitude of the mine owners i toward Sir Herberts proposal has not been declared. The executive 1 committee of the miners up to the present has refused 10 accept the | mcfnOr3nQlIllt dSSSI llllE ludl u pulS 1 forward nothing to remove the pros- poets of reduced wages.
 There are indications that the leader Of the miners are angry at
 the council of the trades union
 congress for accepting the Samuel
 memorandum and calling off the
 general strike.
 It is said some of them bitterly
 criticize the T, |. C.'s action as a ! betrayal of the miners, who are
 declared 10 have been led to sup
 pose that the T. |. C. was assisting
 them in their fight against lowered
 wages This feeling toward the

GORDON 5 NAME
SENT SENATE

The long-awaited denomination
OF Major Peyton Gordon as District
Attorney for the District of Column.
bta was sent to the Senate today
by President Coolidge.
The first term Of District Attor-
ney Gordon expired more than SIX
months ago, and at that time the
President announced he virtually
decided TO continue Gordon in office.
The President refrained, however,
from giving the District Attorney
"a recess appointment during the
period when Congress was not in
session, it being understood the
District Attorney would continue in
office until d new session of Con.
gress had been convened.
President Coolidge has delayed the
denomination of Major Gordon from
last December. when Congress met.
until today. The White House
never has made any statement as
to the reasons for this delay, but
1t is not believed there was any
question in the Presidents mind as
TO whether he should adhere to his
original decision to give Major Cor
don a second term.
1t is expected that the Senate
will confirm the denomination with
out delay, inasmuch as there is
practically no opposition.
The local Republican organization
consistently has supported District
Attorney Gordon for reaDpointment,
although there have been other can
didates in the field. The nomina-
ton was referred to the Senate
Judiciary Committee.
The normal production of the
mine is about 20 cars of smokeless
coal daily. The Beckley seam is
| worked at No. mine and the
Sewell seam at No. 6. mine, which
| is adjoining.
While the two mines are con
nected, they are served by two sep
arate shafts quarter of a mile
apart. .i..
In 1914 a disaster in the sam,
mine took j. toll of 1874 lives.
