Vancouver, B. C. Practically all tbe coal mines In eastern British Columbia and Alberta are closed. It waa rumored Friday morning that President Mitchell ot tbe United Mine Workers of America had Instructed District President Sherman to ask the "men 'to resume workbut'Sher man denied this. Then S. S. Lindsay, manager of the Crows Nest Coal company, gave out a copy of a dispatch he bad received from Mitchell, who said definitely that he had ordered Sherman to get the men back to work. The men have quit work, but not definitely gone on a strike, so that they may not be prosecuted under a new dominion government law. Sherman and Patterson, bis assistant, both state that the men are pressing them to issue a strike order, no doubt on account of tbe ambiguous position they oe upy, tligs quitting work without any definite arrangements. There Is much doubt about the action of quitting work without calling it a strike, secretly ordered, and all falling into line, being a strategic move to evade violation of tbe clause of the act. Shermao says be will not pay strike allowances because he can get around that by paying a working allowance. It looks as though the operators had broken the law In posting notices of a reduction pending the dispute.

Washlngtln. Tbe reason for the Issue In Paris of the decree Imposing the maximum duties on coffee imported from the United 8tate' and Porto Rico Is said at the state department to be dissatisfaction of the French government at the failure of the United State! senate to act upon the Trench reciprocity treaty which has been pending before that body for. several years. Added to this. It la said. Is a suspicion upon the part of the French government that the negotiations now in progress between tbe United States and Germany relative to the tariff upon American goods imported Into Germany conceals some advantage to be bestowed upon German trade with tho- United States la - which - Freneb trade Is not to share. This decree la regarded as the beginning of a systematic effort to bring such pressure to bear upon the American congress, through the American export trade, as will force the whole subject of reciprocity upon its attention at the beginning of the next see slon. The state department officials fear that this action is but precursor ot similar attacks uponthq American trade by other nations of Europe. It is feared that the effect of the French decree will be disastrous to Porto Rico, which at present finds al most Its only market for its coffee In France, now that Spanish market is closed by excessive duties.
