Jenkins Likely to Be Advised to Secure His Freedom by Giving Bail. Washington, Nov. 28. America' next step in the exchange of notes with Mexico over the case of William O. Jenkins, - consular! agent, imprisoned "at Puebla, probably will be a demand tfiaf the Carranza government supply more complete details of the charges against him and permit a first-hand investigation by an Amer lean" representative. The government, it Is understood, desires to have M. E. Hanna of the American embassy in Mexico City go to Puebla and personally review the entire matter, making a secret report to the state department, which would be checked up with the detailed report the Mexicans will be asked to furnish. It was suggested this government would advise Jenkins to take advantage of the Mexican offer to set him free on bail. " In the meantime, however, it was made clear that no dangerous crisis exists and that the entire situation is expected to be settled peacefully. The Mexican reply, which, according to its text, was prepared at the direction of President Carranza, argues in the main that the Mexican government can not order fie release of a prisoner while hi case is under adjudication in the civil courts of one of its states, and contends that the American government's demand for the consular agent's release had no foundation or precedent in international law. Some angles of the Mexican viewpoint on the Jenkins case, hitherto unpublished in the United States, are revealed. The tendency of the Mexican argument is to separate the Jenkins case into two phases: First, the situation in which the consular agent was kidnaped by bandits and held for ransom, and last, his subsequent arrest and Imprisonment by the civil authorities of Puebla on a charge of having "connived" with the bandits. The note at hand deals with the latter phase exclusively. It points out that Jenkins was first held under what in known to the Mexican penal code as "preventative imprisonment." This provision covers a situation in which a person is suspected of complicity in a criminal act. He subsequently was held upder a provision covering "formal" imprisonment, which under the Mexican penal code applies when a magistrate believes there is sufficient evidence to establish that a crime has been committed. The allegation against Jenkins is that he signed conflicting statements regarding his kidnaping and therefore was "guilty of falsifying judicial declaration." ITALIAN KING COMING Proposes to Visit the United States Next Summer. Rome, Nov. 28. King Victor Emmanuel will go to the United States next summer and also will visit South America, especially the republics of Brazil, Uruguay, Argentine, Chile and Peru, unless the political situation prevents him from carrying out his desire.

Victor Emmanuel desires especially to return the visit President Wilson made to him in Rome. Plead For Condemned Negroes. Boston,'N Nov. 28.

GOAL STRIKE TO COHTIIE MlasWageGenfarensa Dlsssss Wiflsoit Eesn'ls, PARTICIPANTS RETURN' KE Garfield Plan Accepted by the Operators, but the Mine Worker Reject It New Proposals of Arbitration Also Turned Down by the Miners, Who Attack the Government's Attitude Statements Issued. Washington, Nov. 28. Miners and operators spent several hours last evening in embittered debate over the government proposal for a 14 per cent wage increase, made by Fuel Administrator Garfield, rejected it and every other proposal that was forthcoming, and theu dissolved sine die. Participants in the conference left for their homes, and where the break left coal strike conditions no one of them, miner or operator, would say. Likewise in official quarters there was silence. Acting President John L. Lewis of the mine workers, though refusing to say one word as to the strike itself, which theoretically was called off in obedience to federal court injunction holding it a violation of the Lever act for wartime food and fuel control, scored the government roundly at the conclusion of the conference.. So did William Green, secretary of the mine workers. ... . Operators, though accepting the government proposal definitely, in a letter of explanation to Dr. Garfield, which they made public, Intimated that the government's refusal to allow price increases would bear reconsideration. ( It was behind closed doors that the coal situation reached Its climax, after involving the full attention of the federal government for two days previously. There was much heated oratory, but T. W. Guthrie of Pittsburgh, acting -chairman of the operators' committee, described the parliamentary procedure succinctly as he came out. Arbitration Rejected, The operators, by a prearranged plan, notified the miners' committee for the central competitive field of their acceptance of Dr. Garfield's plan. This the mine workers promptly voted down. In turn the miners put forward a counter proposal, that Secretary Wilson's suggestion for a 31.66 per cent wage increase be granted, and this the operators flatly refused. For the third time the operators renewed their formal offer of arbitration, and this the miners voted down.' Unanimously an adjournment was voted. "Our position is unchanged," Mr. Lewis said. "We hold the United States government can not break its word. The pledge of Secretary Wilson to grant us a 31 per cent increase must be redeemed. In my Judgment Dr. Garfield and the cabinet have committed the most colossal blunder in the history of our nation. They are blindly following an academic theory, without regard to Justice to the mine workers or effects on the people of the United States. Responsibility for the crisis now confronting the nation must be with those statesmen using the powers of government to oppress and deny Justice to a great element of its citizenship directly concerned in industry." Secretary Green of the mine workers accused Garfield of "doing great injustice to a million miners" in making his analysis of the situation, and said the fuel administrator's action "approached the commission of a moral crime against the public." "The rnUie workers can not mine coal at his figure," Green declared. PRESERVES MEAT People Along Superior Utilize the Lake For Cold Storage. Houghton, Mich., Nov. 28.

A recent issue of the Columbus Dispatch contained a very interewting article concerning the late Lieut. T. P. Johnston, one of our Morrow county men who died overseas while in the "service of hi country. The writer of the article, whom I am informed is a Columbus reporter, made some erroneous statements concerning Morrow county's gold star record. The facts are that twenty-nine of our soldiers gave their lives for the cause of Liberty. Eleven of these died while overseas. The Victory Shaft bears the names of the twenty-nine men who gave their all. These names were published in all the pipers of the county and hundreds of circulars were mailed to all jxrts of the county, asking for the co-operation of the friends of the deceased soldiers and th public generally to correct the list. If there are anv errors, the nnh- lic will have to share the responsibility wnn us. Our records contain the names of those who died overseas as follows: Leonard Boham Lester G. Carter Fred B. Corwin Emmett C. Hinderlong George D. Hut ton "Rex D. Jenkins T. P. Johnston Herman II. Morrison Lawrence Philbrook . " Wm. D. Scarbrough The name of Harry V. Williams snould be added to the above list, since he died in an eastern hospital from injuries received at the front and shortly after returning to the American shores. Should there be any errors in the foregoing list of those who died overseas, we will be glad to have the correction. Sincerely, Frank B. McMillin. W. S. S. Chairman. THE UNION IN MT.

Jenkins Likely to Be Advised to Secure His Freedom by Giving Bail. Washington, Nov. 28. America' next step in the exchange of notes with Mexico over the case of William O. Jenkins, - consular! agent, imprisoned "at Puebla, probably will be a demand tfiaf the Carranza government supply more complete details of the charges against him and permit a first-hand investigation by an Amer lean" representative. The government, it Is understood, desires to have M. E. Hanna of the American embassy in Mexico City go to Puebla and personally review the entire matter, making a secret report to the state department, which would be checked up with the detailed report the Mexicans will be asked to furnish. It was suggested this government would advise Jenkins to take advantage of the Mexican offer to set him free on bail. " In the meantime, however, it was made clear that no dangerous crisis exists and that the entire situation is expected to be settled peacefully. The Mexican reply, which, according to its text, was prepared at the direction of President Carranza, argues in the main that the Mexican government can not order fie release of a prisoner while hi case is under adjudication in the civil courts of one of its states, and contends that the American government's demand for the consular agent's release had no foundation or precedent in international law. Some angles of the Mexican viewpoint on the Jenkins case, hitherto unpublished in the United States, are revealed. The tendency of the Mexican argument is to separate the Jenkins case into two phases: First, the situation in which the consular agent was kidnaped by bandits and held for ransom, and last, his subsequent arrest and Imprisonment by the civil authorities of Puebla on a charge of having "connived" with the bandits. The note at hand deals with the latter phase exclusively. It points out that Jenkins was first held under what in known to the Mexican penal code as "preventative imprisonment." This provision covers a situation in which a person is suspected of complicity in a criminal act. He subsequently was held upder a provision covering "formal" imprisonment, which under the Mexican penal code applies when a magistrate believes there is sufficient evidence to establish that a crime has been committed. The allegation against Jenkins is that he signed conflicting statements regarding his kidnaping and therefore was "guilty of falsifying judicial declaration."

GOAL STRIKE TO COHTIIE MlasWageGenfarensa Dlsssss Wiflsoit Eesn'ls, PARTICIPANTS RETURN' KE Garfield Plan Accepted by the Operators, but the Mine Worker Reject It New Proposals of Arbitration Also Turned Down by the Miners, Who Attack the Government's Attitude Statements Issued. Washington, Nov. 28. Miners and operators spent several hours last evening in embittered debate over the government proposal for a 14 per cent wage increase, made by Fuel Administrator Garfield, rejected it and every other proposal that was forthcoming, and theu dissolved sine die. Participants in the conference left for their homes, and where the break left coal strike conditions no one of them, miner or operator, would say. Likewise in official quarters there was silence. Acting President John L. Lewis of the mine workers, though refusing to say one word as to the strike itself, which theoretically was called off in obedience to federal court injunction holding it a violation of the Lever act for wartime food and fuel control, scored the government roundly at the conclusion of the conference.. So did William Green, secretary of the mine workers. ... . Operators, though accepting the government proposal definitely, in a letter of explanation to Dr. Garfield, which they made public, Intimated that the government's refusal to allow price increases would bear reconsideration. ( It was behind closed doors that the coal situation reached Its climax, after involving the full attention of the federal government for two days previously. There was much heated oratory, but T. W. Guthrie of Pittsburgh, acting -chairman of the operators' committee, described the parliamentary procedure succinctly as he came out. Arbitration Rejected, The operators, by a prearranged plan, notified the miners' committee for the central competitive field of their acceptance of Dr. Garfield's plan. This the mine workers promptly voted down. In turn the miners put forward a counter proposal, that Secretary Wilson's suggestion for a 31.66 per cent wage increase be granted, and this the operators flatly refused. For the third time the operators renewed their formal offer of arbitration, and this the miners voted down.' Unanimously an adjournment was voted. "Our position is unchanged," Mr. Lewis said. "We hold the United States government can not break its word. The pledge of Secretary Wilson to grant us a 31 per cent increase must be redeemed. In my Judgment Dr. Garfield and the cabinet have committed the most colossal blunder in the history of our nation. They are blindly following an academic theory, without regard to Justice to the mine workers or effects on the people of the United States. Responsibility for the crisis now confronting the nation must be with those statesmen using the powers of government to oppress and deny Justice to a great element of its citizenship directly concerned in industry." Secretary Green of the mine workers accused Garfield of "doing great injustice to a million miners" in making his analysis of the situation, and said the fuel administrator's action "approached the commission of a moral crime against the public." "The rnUie workers can not mine coal at his figure," Green declared. PRESERVES MEAT People Along Superior Utilize the Lake For Cold Storage. Houghton, Mich., Nov. 28.

A recent issue of the Columbus Dispatch contained a very interewting article concerning the late Lieut. T. P. Johnston, one of our Morrow county men who died overseas while in the "service of hi country. The writer of the article, whom I am informed is a Columbus reporter, made some erroneous statements concerning Morrow county's gold star record. The facts are that twenty-nine of our soldiers gave their lives for the cause of Liberty. Eleven of these died while overseas. The Victory Shaft bears the names of the twenty-nine men who gave their all. These names were published in all the pipers of the county and hundreds of circulars were mailed to all jxrts of the county, asking for the co-operation of the friends of the deceased soldiers and th public generally to correct the list. If there are anv errors, the nnh- lic will have to share the responsibility wnn us. Our records contain the names of those who died overseas as follows: Leonard Boham Lester G. Carter Fred B. Corwin Emmett C. Hinderlong George D. Hut ton "Rex D. Jenkins T. P. Johnston Herman II. Morrison Lawrence Philbrook . " Wm. D. Scarbrough The name of Harry V. Williams snould be added to the above list, since he died in an eastern hospital from injuries received at the front and shortly after returning to the American shores. Should there be any errors in the foregoing list of those who died overseas, we will be glad to have the correction. Sincerely, Frank B. McMillin. W. S. S. Chairman. THE UNION IN MT.
