Church Disestablishment. London, Feb. 11.—The fourth ses- slon of King George’s parliament nas opened. A number of measures of natlon- wide importance are scheduled for conmsideration at this session and throughout England the action of the two houses will be watched with great interest. = Among the measures scheduled to be considered are the Irish home rule M, the Welsh church disestablish- ment bill, woman suffrage and Win- ston Churchill's “biggest ever” naval appropriation. The usual pomp and ceremony at- tended the opening of the first ses- slon and due to the fact that Mrs. Pankhurst, Miss Annle Kenney and other leading suffragettes had an- nounced their intention of personally presenting a petition to King George extraordinary police precautions were taken to prevent any interference ‘with the ceremonies by the militants. Chief of Police Sir Edward Henry was in charge and police and detec- tives swarmed among the spectators lning the route from Buckingham palace to the house of parliament. About 4,000 soldiers were on duty in the streets.

N. Hilton, counsel for the Western Federation of Miners, read into the record more notations on miners’ pay envelopes to show the low monthly wage earned by some workers under the contract system. Deductions for such items as “hos- pital, store and board” were shown on some of the envelopes. “We will prove,” Mr. Hilton said, “that in many instances the mining company would take out of the em- ploye’s pay the amount owed it, and then would pay the storekeeper and the boarding housekeeper from what was left.” The exhibit covered a wide period, some dating back as far as 1898. ‘William J. Rickard, president of the Calumet local of the Western Federa- tion of Miners, then resumed the wit- ness stand and continued his story. Asked if a miner frequently was not able to make more by contract than on a fixed daily wage, Rickard said he could do so during the term of his contragt if he happened to strike a good veln, but in that case he was cut down when the time came to make a new contract. It was for that reason, he said, that the men demand- ed a minimum wage of $3 a day.
