Kansas City, Nov. 18.—A few mo- ments after the intersta of coal miners of the Southwest voted last night, 184 to 163, not to accept the proposal of the operators em- bodying the most drastic “autocrat- ic’ penalty clause ever written into a coal miners’ wage contract, the Mis- souri, Oklahoma and Arkansas dele- gations, led by their district presi- dents, D.

When the Kansas delegates returned at 7:30 o'clock to the Labor Temple they found the oth- er delegates had left. President Howat of the Kansas miners advised them the only course open was for him also to accept the contract, and he was authorized to do so by unani- mous vote. Thus ended the hardest struggle made by the miners of the Southwest in many years against a contract clause they term “the most unjust onvention ,{and outrageous” ever imposed upon ,| coal miners in America. They yield- ed, they said, not to the operators, but to the demand of the government through the fuel administrator, Dr. H. A. Garfield, The convention was in session a week, Late yesterday, in reply to a telegraphed inquiry to the Fuel Ad- ministrator, Howat received a_ tele- gram saying the “automatic” penalty clause which the operators presented to the district officials Friday—which they had refused to sign—was t- isfactory” to the Fuel Administration. It was then a motion instructing the district officials to accept the clause was defeated, and the “bolt” fol- lowed. There was nothing for the Kansas district to do, Howat and the delegates agreed, but accept defeat. Only three’ of the Kansas delegates voted to accept the clause, but when Howat asked them, after the other ANOTHER CASUALTY LIST Germans Shelled the American ‘ Trenches Heavily. n Field Headquarters, Neov,_15.—More Americans have bee killed and wounded in brisk fighting which has broken out along the sec- tor they are holding against the Ger- mans, A few more men, in addition to those who fell in the recent German raid, have been killed and wounded as a result of heavy shelling of their trenches by boche artillery, it was learned. today.

County Superintendent A. C. More- land has received from the Missouri Association for the Relief and Con- trol of Tuberculosis a copy of Ritchie’s Primer of Sanitation which was awarded as a prize to thePapins- ville school for having sold the great- est number of Red Cross seals of any rural school in the county in last De- cember’s campaign of education against tuberculosis. The school was taught by Anna Alford. The prize will be presented to the school with some ceremony in the near future. 5401 seals were sold in Bates coun- ty last year and 4,564,454 in the State. Over a hundred million were sold in the United States, netting over a million dollars. lion are expected to be sold this De- cember.
