New York, March 16.—The sus- pension from work of one hundred and eighty thousand anthracite miners April 1 can be fprevented only by a compromise, but neither owners nor men give the slightest indication of yielding from their positions. The miners demanded higher wages and changes in work- ing conditions. The operators turned the demands down, saying they were unable to accept them. The men refused to submit to com- promise.

INDUSTRIAL PARALYSIS CAUSED BY STRIKE (By Associated Press.) London, of the conference between the strik- ing coal miners, and owners under the suggestion of Premier Asquith, to reach a settlement has brought England to a realization of the se- rious position of her other indus- tries besides those directly affected. Many plants, which have been kept going only through extraordinary ef- fort, must now close, throwing ad- ditional thousands out of work. Ten thousand mechanics were laid off in one lump today, when the Great Western Railway closed its shops on R allroad account of lack of fuel. trains continue to be discontinued. C. M.

I had the pleasure of seeing Mr. O. 8. Van. Huss, the popular manager of the Lakeland Hardware & Plumbing Co. [ also noticed a noisy young man with him who I learned later was Cecil Pillans, the live wire of the firm of W. P. Pil- lans & Co., who carry a complete line of staple and fancy groceriesat popular prices. Coming out of the theater 1 strolled over to Henley & Henley's and found the nicest drug store that I have visited in a long time. They carry a complete line of everything that is to be had in a first-class drug store. I am think- ing of making the store my head- quarters. I am cranky on a nice, clean place. I made a few pur- chases of this store and strolled back by the postofice. Mr. Dan Marshall, your popular constable was in this drug store, but I think Dan was asleep. Arriving at the postoflice it was drizzling rain, so 1 returned to my lodging to get a nice rest so 1 would be free for today's work.
