MINERS BATTLE
FREIGHT RATES.

NEW YORK, Sept. 13 GN.SD
One stumbling block to an agree
ment between anthracite coal
mine operators and representa-,
tiveS of the United Mine Work
ers of America, who resumed their
conference here today, appeared
to have been overcome.
Operators were said to have
agreed to what unionistS have
contended for a number of years,
that excessive freight rates sad
died the industry with an in
cubus and that steps should be
taken to obtain a downward re-
vision of these rates.
One report was that operators
already asked railroads handling
their products to cut the freight
rate 81 a ton. If such action is
taken, it was generally believed
hard coal prices to consumers
would Immediately be lowered.
1t was estimated the total re-
duction would amount to $50,000,-

FIVE FARMS GOLF

Detweiller, 14-year-old golfer
from the Manor Club, was the
first of the eight Washington,
D. c., entrants to drop from
the National Amateur cham
pionship.
Detweiller, who teed off
early this morning, blew up
and finished his final Is holes
today with 81, II over par.
His IS in yesterdays initial
qualifying rounds had given
him an outside chance of re-
naming for tomorrow's match
play rounds between the low
80 scorers.
Detweiller fell down in every
department of the game, starting
off on the wrong foot and never
able to strike his true form. He
negotiated the first nine in Al
and consumed 46 strokes on the
incoming trip. Detweiller's card:

vantage today and reached the

Brawner Steady
John F.. Brawner, Columbia
Country Club youngster, con-
tinued his steady pace with 80
for his nine. Brawner scored 79
yesterday and must shoot the last
nine in par figures to place him
self near the qualifying line. It is
believed 153 or 154 will be the last
qualifying score.
Roger Peacock, 21-year-old
player, from the Indian Spring

amateur champion, and Harry G..
Pitt, of Manor Club were not
scheduled to tee off until late
this afternoon. Peacock with his
