Prospects for nn agreement be-
tween the mlnets and operators and
a settlement of the coal strike seem
somewhat brighter now than at nti)
tlmo slnco the commencement of the
trouble.
This view Is taken hecauso of the
fact that the opcratois have offered
to tho mineib' lcprcscntatlves a flat
increase- of IGc n ton on coal mined
and 20 percent Increase for tho day
workeis.
How over John L. Lewis acting
president of the miners stamped the
concession of the opeiatois as wholly
inadequate but both j-ides plalnl)
take tho offer as a bicaking of the
ice and an opening foi fiuUier ne-
gotiations. Meanwhile the (Jot eminent con-
tinues to bold hands off. and Fuel
Administrator Clai field has taken no
steps openly to utlon oi ietilct coal
consumption.
President Lewis of the mliieis is
quoted as salng that ho considered
the opeiatois' proposal had "con-
ti United nothing to the hcttlement of
the difficulties" but at the same he
indicated that the mineis weie will-

Jenkins Must He Itclcuscd.
The Uo eminent of Mexico has
again been warned by the nutboiHI.'s
at Washington thnt It must "go
eas)" with this country's consular
agent. William O. Jenkins who has
been arrested a second tlmo charged
with couuUancc at his own abduc-
tion by bandits.
The warning states that any fui-
ther molestation of tho American
consular agent at Pitehla would "ser-
iously affect the relations between
the I'nlted States and Mexico foi
which the (Itn eminent of Mexico
must nssttme sole responsibility.
Coupled with the warning was a
demand for the immediate release ot
the consul ii agent who was lear-
lested Tuesday on chntges in con-
nection with his nbdiiction and ran-
som in (he sum of $150000 In gold.
The note based on the learrest of
Mr. Jenkins points out that tho Un-
ited Stales Cow'i anient is sutprlscd
and Iniensed to learn of the leliti-
piisonment ot Mi. Jenkins through
lark of piotectlou by the Mtwiuin

While tho supremo court at Wash-

ty of tho wnr-tlmo prohibition act.
word went out from the Whlto Houso
that President Wilson would not re-

This Is expected to Bet nt rost tho
oor recurring rumors that tho "dry"
ban would bo lifted by tho President'
irrespective of early ratification of
tho treaty of Versailles. Failure of
tho Senate to art on the treaty at tho

many administration officials as pre
cluding tho ending of tho technical
