Lewis. "There is no question." said Mr. Lewis, "but that the convention will, by an almost unanimous vote, adopt; and ratify the committees report.! When the scale demands have been: ratified and the public has taken the time to study them it will discover that the miners are doing everything in their power to be fair and to avoid any inconvenience to the coal consuming public of this country. We shall I expect, as a matter of course, that1 the operators will he as fair with the, public as we are." Informally Mr. L*. .vis said be was "more impressed" with the possibility of a settlement in the anthracite fields than in the bituminous fields where no conference with operators has been arranged. He expected a conference with anthracite operators about April 1. An early conclusion of the convention was predicted by Mr. Lewis, who said he did not expect that it would be necessary to postpone the miners' conference with the railroad unions set for next Tuesday in Chicago. In this connection he said that the proposed alliance between the miners and railroad workers was not intended as a strike menace, for he said he had no desire of bringing on "any industrial catastrophe." The purpose, he said, was to ally the workers, so that a group of employers could not "arbitrarily reduce wages without consider-! ing the workers' rignt. as to terms."

HARDING FAVORS SALES TAX Washington, Feb. 16.?Pay the soldiers' bonus with a geenral sales tax or postpone the legislation, was President Harding's advice today to congress. Chairman Fordney of the house ways and means committee and McCumbcr of the state finance committee said they did not think the bonus would be postponed, but were silent as to a sales tax. Leaders of the agricultural bloc were outspoken, however, against this tnx and threatened to counter with r program which would include recnactment of the excess profits and high income surtaxes and an increase in inheritance and some other such taxes.* This plan nlso was favored by some Democratic leaders. Proponents of a sales tax professed to be confident that because of the strong desire in both the house and senate to put through the bonus bill at this session a majority of the members would come to accept this levy rather than see the bonus program defeated. Pending further reaction from the country there seemed to be a disposition on all sides to move slowly. The president's letter addressed to Representative Fordney was read at a joint meeting of Republican members of the house and senate committees dealing with the bonus question, who agreed after some discussion to leave | the matter in the hands of the majority members of the house committee. In suggesting a general sales tax as "the only commendable plan" of raising funds, Mr. Harding said he believed the American people would accept such a levy for this purpose, adding that it would distribute the cost so that it would be borne by all of the people and would not contribute added difficulties to the problem of readjustment. If congress would not adopt such a tax, the president wrote that it would be wise to let the legislation go over until there was a situation which would "justify the large outlay." Calling attention that the administration was "driving for large B r?ul?i tVr>nf surplus war property and that it nas other transactions under consideration which ought to prove a great relief to the federal treasury. Mr. Harding added: "It is not consistent to enact legislation in anticipation of those things but it would be a prudent plan to await the developments and I can see in such a postponement people ore genuinely interested." Copies of the president's letter were made available to the house and senate immediately after the delivery of the original to Representative Fordney in the early afternoon. There was brief open discussion of the communication in the senate and none in the house but. it was the chief topic of conversation in the cloak rooms of both houses.

WOUNDED MAN FOUND ON STREET Amzi McNinch, young white man, was brought to the police station at 12:40 o'clock this morning suffering from a gunshot wound in the throat. The injured man war, examined by a city physician 15 minutes later and was rushed to the Columbia hospital. McNinch was found at the intersection of Wheat and Sumter streets by Officers McAlister and lledgepath. He said he was shot while resisting a highwayman. Officer Parker arrested Austin Burns and Mattio Burns, negroes, at 1:30 o'clock this morning near the point where McNinch was found. Officers said Burns declared he fired the shot that wounded McNinch. The negro said McNinch "was breaking in on him." Burns and the woman are being held for investigation. The police are holding a 38 caliber II. & R. pistol that Burns used, according to his story. The bullet in McNinch's throat will determine if the 45 caliber or the 38 was the one that wounded him. Officers found a 45 caliber pistol with six empty chambers and a flashlight where McNinch was shot. The wounded man was blecdinc nmfucelv and blcod stains covered his clothing, gun and flashlight. McNinch told officers that ho remembered seeing a flash and that he grappled with a negro for the weapon. He said he made efforts to fire the pistol after he obtained possession of it but it would not shoot. An examination of the weapon indicated that it had contained three cartridges and these were fired. The other chambers hold shells that appeared to have been tired some time ago. Negroes in the nighborhood of the shooting said they heard three shots fired. Officers made every effort to get the details of the shooting and the wounded man told his story between coughing spells during which time he was expotorating blood. The bullet entered the left jaw, shattering the bone and traveled across the throat. The big lead ball could be felt at the hack of the neck on the right side. McNinch told officers that he had about $100 in his coat pocket before the scuffle with the negro and a search showed that his statement was correct, for he still had that amount in his possession. A tine gold watch was in his vest pocket and officers were satisfied that McNinch had not been robbed during his scuffle. The story told by McNinch led officers to believe that some negro attempted a holdup and that McNinch was game and resisted the effort. The wounded man was unab'e to five a description of his assailaflt up to the time he was removed to the hospital. McNinch is connected with a garage on Harden street, is married and lives in , Shandon Annex.?The State. yrril THHD BURNS TO DEATH Earl, the two-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. .Toe Parks, died at f> o'clock this morning from burns he sustained when his clothing caught fire yesterday afternoon from a grate.
