CONFERENCE ON MINE WAGES, CONDITIONS NEAR BREAKING POINT
(By Associated Press) CHICAGO, Jan. 5. Prospects of an agreement were meagre today as union soft coal miners and operators faced their third day's conference to find an agreeable method for fixing new contracts at the expiration Marcii 31 of the present agreement. Miners in committee conference yesterday rejected a plan submitted by the operators which would have made each distinct a wage scale unit with
the privilege of grouping with any
other districts satisfactory. The min
erg said that question had been settled
by the strike. r
Inability of operators to agree, among
themselves because of alleged sectional opposition was given by the miners as the cause for failure to reach a settlement. Operators, indicating a desire to return to the old central com
petitive field arrangement declared
they feared to do so because of pre
vious federal rulings.
Should this present conference fail.
the third within recent months it was
paid that the probability of such com
plete representation of the Industry
meeting again would be exceedingly re
mote. The alternative in that case was said to be group settlements by al
lied districts. No official statements were forth
coming from either miners or operators
on the message of John Hays Ham
mond, chairman of President Harding's
commission investigating the industry Chairman Hammond urged a continua
tion ot present agreements tor one
year.

Dantonio, New Orleans chauffeur,

The men were arrested last night near Clinton, Louisiana, and brought to Baton Rouge. Two women with them also were held as material witnesses. Confusion In describing the kind of uniform the men wore was explained by the local police who said that Dantooio declared at least three of the men were dressed in French uniforms. That led to reports that the men were believed to be French marines from the warship Jeanne De Arc, anchored at New Orleans.

APPEAL OF STEAMER
LIQUOR BAN CASES IS ARGUED FRIDAY
(By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Jan. 5. Appeal of the American steamship companies from the decision of Federal Judge Hand of New York, sustaining the ruling of Attorney General Daugherty, which banned intoxicating liquors from their ships at all times, came up
for argument today in the supreme court. Discussion of the foreign steamship cases, arising under the
same ruling, ended yesterday, the government contending that the prohibi
tion policy established by the 18th
amendment and the enforcement act
was intended to make the United States bone dry wherever its jurisdic
tion extended, insisting that such iur
isdiction -followed the American flag
on every vessel whereverit might be
The effect of the exclusion of intoxi
cating liquors from such vessels, upon
the upbuilding of an American merchant marine, would not present a question of law, for the consideration
of the court.
Admitting that the American flag on a vessel gave this government under international law and" the comity of nations, jurisdiction over the ship, counsel for the steamships companies
contended that "jurisdiction" was not
anonymous with "territory" as used
in the prohibition laws. "Territorv.
they insisted, should be construed to mean "land" and American vessels to meet foreign competition, should be
permitted to serve intoxicating beverags to a passenger on the high seas and in foreign ports. Should the law be interpreted as prohibiting such service, American passenger ships, they predicted, would disappear from the seas.
