LLOYD GEORGE HEARS BOTH OWNERS AND MINERS LOXDOX, April V2. Both in the controversy between mine owners and ; eonl diggers, which brought about the i striki; of British miners last week, were ' received by Premier Lloyd George today, i Thy mine owners conferred with Mr. ' Lloyd George nt II o'clock, und the inin-, 1 ers were ready to talk nitli the premier immediately after the conclusion of his conversation with the owneri. Representatives of the miners will re port to the "triple alliance of labor": later iu the day as to whether the pros-: pectM of a settlement are sufficiently fa-1 vorable to justify the postponement of the strike of the National Union of Hail naymcii ami the National Federation of Transport Workers, members of which ; are prepared to walk out at 12 o'clock tonight. It whs declared here today that there would lie no strike of these two organizations unless negotiations to: be carried out today broke down. l'roKiMvts were generally held out to- ! day to be unfavorable, although a mem ! ber of the miners' executive committee' aid last night: We have not come to grips as yet on counter proposals. Yesterday's proceedings barely passed tlie preliminary stages of the statement of the respective rases of those dirctly involved in the miners' strike, and s.i the London Times, "nothing emerged from them but a presentation of the problem in all its naked difficulty. " It was stated in various tpinrters today that the miners were prepared to accept a wage reduction by the establishment of a sliding scale schedule based on the cost of ylvw , wlls pointed out tlint, in event the most unfavorable circum stances, the transport strike cannot begin until Friday, as seamen and firemen, whose union is affiliated with the Trann port Workeis' Federation, insisted on i ballot before walking 'out. This vote began today and will take four days to j bo cast. Operations to insure the safety of the , mines from floods of water are proceed- ing without hindrance in most of the eonl fields in the United Kingdom. The only exception is found in Fifeshire, where only two of sixty four iits nre be ing pumped. TWO BIG GAMES ON TAP THIS WEEK Collegians Open Season at Home Wed - ncsday Against Bessemer City Play Ranlo Saturday.

On Wednesday. Lindsay will send his Bessemer City troupe against Hie home boys and from a (listnnce of twenty four i hours it looks like a good scrap. Jnhii- ' son, Bessemer City's young spec king.' will probably oppose Harvey on the , mound, and needless to say, the pitching burden should be well taken care of. As i it n exM-riment the game will lie started ; at 1:4.1 p. in., but if this hour does not suit the fans, the hum will be moved up for Inter games. Saturday in the same old park, the classiest mill team in those parts will endeavor to take the collegians into camp, and one of the hardest fought games in many a day is expected before the curtain rolls down on the final chap ter. Ranlo, with Chief Costlier, the dinky bull specialist, on tho mound, will present a hard combination and the col legians will have to go the limit to carry off the bunting. The game Saturday will lie started at 4:.'0 sharp. The home boys promise something good in the way of baseball at both these games and are expecting Gastonia fans to back them to the limit.
