Today Fiume will begin a strug- gle to obtain that commercial ac- tivity which in so short a time transformed a tiny seaport place into a bustling port. The answer to the problem is thought to be found in the proclamation of a free port governed by a consortium in which Jugoslavia, Fiume and Italy are represented. Jugoslavia by this arraagement obtains the smali- erof the two ports, Called Baross, and some freight yards. Residents of Fiume are largely dissatisfied with the details of the -arrangement. They would like to have the consortium made for'a century and not merely for twelve years. They hate to sacrifice any Dart of their port, and would like to see Hungary, which has impor- tant dealings with Fiume, admit- ted to the corfsortium. It would seem, however, that they would not have their own way about it Former Foreign Minister Sforza recently declared in the chamber that the port of Baross would be given to Jugoslavia.

The American com- | mittee declares, “it is a matter of primary importance that uniform bills of lading be adopted by the maritime nations, each distinctive trade, where necessary, having its| own form to meet the special require- ments of that particular trade.” | The committee proposes that the meeting of the international chamber shall appoint a uniform bills of lad- ing committee, on which all the im- portant maritime nations shall be represented. The representative of | each country would be instructed to | scek the co-operation of the various | interested parties in his own country in the adoption of uniform forms. The American committee is com- posed of twgnty-one of the leading shipping men of the United States. —_— SUITS ON RAZOR PATENT. Gillette Company Charges Imita- tions Have Appeared.

WILL VOTE $50,000,000 One of Britain’s Greatest Labor Difficulties Comes to End. By the Associated Press, LONDON, June 23.—The British coal mine strike, which has been in progrees since April 1, has been set- tled, it was officially announced this afternoon. It is understood thgt Mr. Liloyd George, the prime minister, will ask parliament this afternoon to au- thorize the granting of a ten-mil- liop-pound subsidy to the mining in- dustry. The miners will resume work generally next Monday if the subsidy is granted. The government offered this subsidy several weeks ago, but withdrew it after the recent proposition by the owners for a set- tlement had been voted down by the miners. The general understanding is\that the submission of the subsidy propo- sition to parliament is a mere for- mality, and that the grant will be voted. Settiement of the coal dispute will end one of the greatest and most pro- longed labor difliculties with which Great Britain has cver been affected. Nearly one million. miners in the South Wales and the various other British coal pits were directly affect- ed by the stoppa which now has been in progress nearly three months. while hundreds of thousands of other workers have been thrown out of em- ployment or forced to work on cur- tailed time because of the coal scar- city. The coal strike threatened at one time in the spring,to bring about the gravest industrial upheaval in British histor: when the whole triple alliance, comprising not only the min- e1s, but the railwaymen and the transport workers, seemed on the verge of going out in aid of the min ers’ cause, in which case it was es mated 4.000.000 persons would hav been madg idle. The triple alliance leaders, Rowever, finally decided that such a step would not be justiticd. —_— RUMANIAN CUP GIVEN. Rifle Association Gets Trophy Pre- sented to Army Team.

Those teams were coached by Amer- | ican officers, especially Col. A. J. Mc- Nab. In the presence of the Ru- manian diplomatic representatives in this city Gen, Pershing today placed the trophy, which is in the form of a handsome cup. in the custody of the National Rifle Association. It now occupies a place alongside other fa- mous shooting trophies which have encouraged Americans in reaching their high plane among the riflemen of the world. —_— Almost_a third of the entire coas of the United States borders on th Gulf of Mexico.

CABINET FAVOR REPORTED Pressyre May Be Exerted to Dis- suade President From Yield- ing to Suggestion. The irreconcilable group of sena- tors are disturbed by the report that the State Department is making prog- ress in the task of “expurgating” the Versailles treaty, with the object of asking the President to resubmit it to the Senate for ratification. to the end of clearing up the international sit- uation and protecting beyond cavil all of the rights of the United States in the settlement of the war's aftermath. 1f the apprehensions of the irrecon- cilables should be qonfirmed, an neute situation within the republican party in the Senate may be precipitated, it is said. The irreconcilables have bren s President Harding, in his Congress, intimated that e Versailles treaty, in some amend- ed fory termining the arisen since Unit provle which have the war, and to which d States is a party. Secretdries Becoming Convinced. The impressi has gained in strength that Secretary Hughes and Seeretary Hoover have become more and more onvinced that the treaty nnot be irely ignored and that, jindeed, it will be impossible for the United States to altogether ignore it Recently the opponents of this view have been hoping that the adminis- tration nt more bent upon domestic quesi upon the interjection of international crises at this time and that possibly they would hear nothing of the qu tion until the next session of Con- Bre at least. May Use Presnure on President. If the réport turns out to me true that the Drpartment of State is making head- ¢ with expurgating of the treaty, the neilables who have support in the inet against the position of the Sec- ry of State will exert pressure to dissuade the President from viclding to the recommendation that the treaty be resubmitted. There is an element among republicans in the Senate that sympathizes with the proposition that the United States will not be able to avoid trafficking in some way with the Versailles treaty. The democrats, of course, have insisted all along that sooner or later the adminis tration would be forced to come to at st partial recognition of the treaty in the final war settiement.
