Six thousand cotton mill workers at Danville, Va., voted to reduce their wages 25 per cent. This was done after the corporation executives had argued their inability to pay the high war wages at the low selling price of cotton cloth. The vote was resorted to under the policy of in- dustrial demcracy adopted 18 months ago.

A. | St. Paul, Minn., Dec. 3—Many new faces will be in evidence when the! team representing the St. Paul Ameri- can association ball club, winners of this year’s championship, takes the field next spring. Five members of this year’s club already have been dis- | posed of, three going to major; league | |¢lubs and two to the Southern associ- | ation. ‘ i | Catcher Hargrave, Pitcher Coumbe and Infielder Rapp have gone to the majors and Pitchers Griner and, Brown have been sold to the Memphis club. . Coumbe was sold to the Cin- cinnati club before the close of the! association season ,after the local club had the championship tucked away. | Later Hargrave’s sale to the same club was completed. Rapp, considered the find of the sea- son, was purchased for $1,000 from Cineinnati by the St. Paul club just before the playing season began. His play during the year placed him above all third basemen in the association.

The phenomenon was not a new one. Mr. Perrett said thg,seismical instru- ments showed a‘ towéring of the earth | level in the earthquake district previ- | ous to the tremors. This has been ob- served on other occasions when earth- quakes occurred. This view is shared by Senator Caplellini, a leading geologist, who has been interviewed by the Messagero | and who says there may haye been an | eruption of gas through a | Mount Pisanino, and the § | colunin of smoke above the Mountain | may have been caused by clouds of | dust from falling earth. | ‘The tongues of flame, in» Senstor Caplellini’s opinion, may possibly have ‘been inflammable gas from under- | ground wells of oil. He said, however, ! that volcanoes can appear independ- ‘ently of the structure of the earth’s crust, and that the greatest catastro- phes have occurred from the appear- ance of volcanoes where nobody ex- pected them. For example, the geologist continued, Mount Etna rises. out of post-pilecene strata, while the volcanoes of the Andes mountains in South America arise from granite rocks. Therefore, the nature of the Apuan mountains did’ not exclude the possibility of a vol- cano appearing on Mount Pisanino.
