LONDON. July 15.
The Secretary of the Miners Federations
announced this afternoon that work In
the Welch mines would be resumed Mon
day. It Is announced that a settlement of the
coal strike In all districts Is expected this
evening-
The Executive Council of the miners' or
canuatlon met early this afternoon. It
was expected they would confer with Gov
ernment omclals later In the day and
would advise the men to return to work
on dally contracts, pending; a final settle
ment. At 3 o'clock this afternoon leaders of
the striking miners announced that 150,1)00
had quit work. All the mines In the
Swanzea, MaesteB, Aberdare, Monmouth
shire, Heath, Avon and Ithondda districts
are closed
Tne men walked out against the ad
vice of the majority of their leaders.
Who urged that they defer action pend
ing the decision Of the executive body of
the South Wales Federation' of Miners
today. By their action they virtually
dared the Government to proceed under
the new munitions act and attempt to
collect the $25 a day flno Imposed on each
striker who quits work without awaiting
arbitration apd Interferes with the pro
duction of munitions of war.
The watk-out came at a time when It
appeared probable that the difficulties be
tween the miners and the colliery owners
would be settled. The executive council
of the Federation was expected today to
reach a declilon with the Government by
which terms of arbitration would be
agreed upon.
Newport, on the Irish Sea, reported the
first distress todav as the result of tho
coal miners' dispute. Virtually all the
railway lines carrying coal to the docks
were, suspended and a number of vessels
arriving In the harbor for coal wero
forced to lie Idle.
The strike probably will last only until
the end of this week, some of the miners
aid today. In tho meantime they be

"we do not want to embarrass the
Government at this time," said one of
the strike leaders today. "But we be
lieve now Is the time to strike against
organized greed.
"The colliery owners are making huge
profits out of the war. We know that
they plan to close their pits Indefinitely
when their coffers are filled at the end
of the struggle and starve us Into sub
mission to their terms. All we ask Is a
fair deal for our men and their families."

liminary memoranda on the forthcoming
note to Germany, drafted by President
Wilson and by Secretary of State Lansing.
Progress Is being made both here and
at Cornish, where the President la now
preparing to end his three weeks' vaca
tion on the answer to Germany's second
note regarding the sinking of the Lual
tenia and the future activities of the
Kaiser's submarines,
Secretary Lansing Is understood to have
received n long letter from President
Wilson regarding the German situation,
.ind he has likewise written the Chief
Executive outlining his tentative view
concerning the nature of the forthcoming
reply. Before hte reply Is framed, It be
came known here today, the Secretary of
State Is to hold n conference with Am
bassador von Bcrnstorff The Ambassa
dor again desires to outline In person tho
views of his Government, and is under
stood to be doing all In his power to bring
about an amicable adjustment of the
present controversy, which camo to a
head when a German submarine de
stroyed many American lives aboard the
Lusltanla.
There are no outward developments to
day regarding the nature of the reply
which this Government will dispatch to
Berlin, but there continues to be the
gravest under-the-surface concern over
the entire situation. Official Washington
Is unable accurately to forecast this Gov
ernment's exact attitude because It is
recognised that the President himself
finally will dictate Its policy and that
membors of the Cabinet will be behind
him In almost any attitude.
Ambassador von Bernstorff, who sent a
personal representative to Berlin to ex
plain more fully the feeling In the United
States over Germany's submarine war
fare, It Is reported today, caused the In
clusion In the German reply of the para
graph expressing the Berlin hope that
Germany and the United States would
work together for tho freedom of the seas.
Whllo the force of this conciliatory para
graph is diminished by the evasiveness of
other parts of the German reupiy, the ap
parent desire of the Ambassador to avoid
friction is regarded as one of th mnnt
hopeful signs In the difficulties besetting
tho two nations.
Secretary Lansing today sold that no
date had been set for the conference be
tween himself and thn German Amhngsn-
dor, but It probably will be held late this
week or next Monday. The Secretary ex
plained that ho still Is studying the Ger
man note and is not yet prepared to go

INDICATES RA.ILROADS,
An agitation has been started in England by H. G, Wells, tho author,
and others, for the building by tho Allies of a fleet of 2000 aero
planes for tho purpose of destroying tho railway bridges over the
Rhine, by means of which tho German armies get their supplies.
Wells contends that tho 2000 machines would cost no more than a
single dreadnought.
ALLIES AGAIN LAUNCH
ATTACKS BY LAND AND

Two More Important Posi
tions on Hills Around
Krithia Captured by Ad

Forces.
ATHENS, July 16 Another determined
nssault by land and water on the Darda
nelles Is being mado by the allied fortes.
After a series of desperate attacks on the
Turkish positions north of Krithia, the
Angld-French forces have captured two
more Important Turkish positions located
on the further hills.
The Allies, despite great losses, are ad
vancing on the Turkish redoubts around
Aehl Baba.
Many Turkish prisoners were captured
In this engagement.
One part of the allied fleet Is now
bombarding tho southern end of the Gal
ileo!! Peninsula with n hot fire.
Several warships Inside the Dardanelles
are engaging the forts on the Asiatic side.
Accompanying the reports of reverses to
tho Turkish arms came Insistent rumora
that Turkey la weary of war.
it is declared that its supply or am
munition Is running very low, and that
there Is no prospect of tho supply being
replenished, because of Rumania's refusal
to allow munitions to cross her borders.
The sentiment ln Constantinople Is de
clared to be strongly In favor of a sepa
rate peace.
The Germans, however, are seizing all
premises and offices wherein any spark of
tho conflagration, which would inevitably
destroy them, might start.
The Germans domlnato tho situation
solely by force. A coup might save Tur
key, but against this contingency the Ger
mans have taken every precaution.

GERMAN ACTIVITY VEILS NEW
LINES IN NORTHERN POLAND
LONDON, July 15.-The activity of the
Germans ln northern Poland Is judged to
bo a demonstration to veil a rearrange
ment of their troops.
It Is not believed the calm will last,
as It Is vital for the Germans to act
promptly.
In the Courland and Kovno Govern
ments the Germans have shown no de
termination to advance.
Near Ossowlec there are signs the Teu
ton allies havo more serious Intentions,
as they recently havo been reinforcing
their artillery.
The following dispatch has been re
ceived from a correspondent from Petro
grad: "I have been three days with the 3d
Russian Army, which has seen the hard
est of fighting. This is the army which
entered Gallcia at tho extreme east last
year and fought around emberg.

Carpathians.
"It has now been fighting all the way
back, with tho samo determination and
stubbornness as enabled It, during Its
advance of 10 months to capture, as Its

"I have motored about 100 miles, ob
serving the advanced positions. I have
talked with scores of officers of all ranks
in the army which, during Its retirement,
Inflicted greater loss than It received, and
conducted a rearguard action. One gen

GENEVA, July 15.-The Italians have
oaptured two miles of Austrian trenches
In tho Carnlc Alps, according to a dis
patch received from Vlllach, an Austrian
town on the River Drave, 52 miles north
west of Lalbach.
The Alpine troops, the advices say,
draffced their artillery to the heights near
Roskafel, which is situated at an alti
tude of 6600 feet
The Italians also are said to have cap
tured two Important forts south of
Gorlila.
Private advices d!priVi tvi hat,u n
the Isonzo River as the greatest fought
?u y "J!1 the Ita"an front, the attacks of
tne Italians being almost Incessant and
most determined.
The bridgehead of Gorizia has suf
fered greatly from the bombardment of
the Italians, who seem resolute to carry
the position at whatever cost In order
to develop the operations on the east
side of tho river. The whole front along
tho line Is strewn with thousands of
dead. The mountain slopes are also
spotted with the bodies of attacked and
defenders alike.
The new Italian offensive seems to de
velop all along the front In Tyrol. Camla
and the Trentino.
A new device has been adopted by the
Austrlans. The peaks and high slopes
of the mountains have been fortified,
and the men are under cover behind
rocks and great atones built up all
around. When attacked by great masses
from below they blow up these fortified
positions so that the boulders roll down
on the oncoming enemy like an avalanche.
LONDON, July 14.
Tho Morning Post's Petrograd corre
spondent wires the following:
"All enemy troops havo been withdrawn
from Lemberg, owing to terrible epi
demics which are raging there. An epi
demic of cholera In 'particular has
caused a panic "
Refugees are pouring into Russian ter
ritory, me dispatch adds, and among
other novel sights to be seen at Kleff
are cabmen from Lemberg who are ply
ing for hire. The population of Gallcia Is
reported to be starving because the
Austro-Germans have requisitioned every
sort of foodstuff. All who can are escap
ing through the tines to Russia.
A dispatch from Lemberg to the
Overseas News Agency of Berlin says
that the University of Lemberg, follow
ng the reoccupatlon of the Gallclan cap
ital by Austro-Hungarian forces, has re
opened and that students are again tak
ing the regular course of the university
under a staff of teachers.
The Berlin official report states that
between tho Nlemen and the Vistula
(North Poland) our troops havo obtained
some local successes In the neighborhood
of Kalwaria, southeast of Kolno, at
Przasyss, and south of Mlnwa. There Is
no change In the southeastern theatre of
war." The official Austrian report also
says there Is no change In tho general
situation.
Tho Russian official communication re
ports the capture of 237 ofllcers and 22,461
men In the battle south of Lublin during
the week ended July 11.
Continued from Pare One
experience In the area of maritime war,
that only Kngllsh steamships, and no
neutral steamships, travorsed this war
area without flag and markings, he at
tacked the vessel with a torpedo In the
conviction that he had an enemy vessel
before him. Some time after the shot the
commander Baw that the vessel had ln
the meantime hoisted the American flag.
As a consequence he, of course, refrained
from any further attack.
"Since the vessel remained afloat ho
had no occasion to concern hlmsolf
lurtner wun tne boats which had been
launched.
"It results from this without a doubt
that tho attack on the steamship Nebras
kan was not meant for the American fits
nor Is It traceable to any fault on the
part of the commander of tha German
submarine, but Is to be considered an
unfortunate accident. The German Gov
ernment expresses Ha regret at tho oc
currence to the Government of the
United States of Amorlca and declares Its
readiness to make compensation for the
damage thereby sustained by American
citizens."
Secretary of State Lansing said today
that the last sentence ln tho memorandum
Indicated that the German Government
would compensate the owners of the Ne
braskan without taking tho case to a
prize court
It Is understood that Count vnn rwn-
storff, tho German Ambassador, who Is to
call on Secretary Lansing today or to
morrow, will add his personal regret to
those contained In the memorandum that
nn American vessel should have been at
tacked, r
MEANING OP MOVES
IN TODAY'S WAR NEWS
Reports from both Germany
rind Enirlnnd show that each nation
is fearful of aerial attacks by tho
other. Tho placing of Iuel, tho
German haval base,5n a stnto or
Btesre is probably based upon in
formation that the British air
fleet is contemplating an attacK
there. On tho other hand, Eng
land is alarmed by reports that a
German Zeppelin was reported
flying westward, but thero is no
Information to show that an at
tack was actually mado at any
point on tho coast.
Defying tho British Govern
ment's threat to invoke tho pro
visions of the munitions act, 160,
000 Welsh miners havo declared
a strike, which if it lasts any
length of time will seriously em
barrass the nation in its war operations.
Tho conflicting dispatches on
the operations in tho West leave
a great deal of doubt as to tho in
tentions of both sides as far as the
undertaking of an offensive all
along the lino Is concorned. Al
though London admits that tho
Germans havo begtiri such a move
ment, the situation, despite tho
German gain in the Argonnc re
gion, does not seem to warrant
such an opinion. It is possible
that in reporting the commence
ment of a German offensive tho
Allies aro endeavoring to covor
such a move on their own part.
Tho situation in North and South
Poland is virtually unchanged. The
plans of tho Germans aro by no
means clear, but that great move
ments aro impending is quite certain.
