Berlin, March 12 The German Charge d'Affairs in London has handed Mr. Lloyd George a note stating that the Entente's lists of war criminals has been submitted to the Supreme State Attorney at the Imperial Court at Leipzig in order that measures may be taken to prosecute the offenders. A Bill passed by the National Assembly thereanent gives every conceivable guarantee for an exhaustive and impartial enquiry.

London, March 12

The German nate to Mr. Lloyd George declates that the Leipzig Court will pronounce justice regardless of consequences and demands the cessation of the arrest of Germans in the occupied territories en charges of war crimes and the banding over of those arrested to the German Court and the release. of Germans detained in war prison camps for similar reasons. It also demands that the Allies abandon the reservation with t regard to the right to try for war crimes Germans not men- tioned on the list of war criminals. if encountered on Allied territory.

THE COAL SITUATION.

London, Marci: 13

The seriousness of the miners' new wages demand is ad- mitted in all quarters. It is estimated it will incur an additional wage bill of £10,000,000 annually and increase the price of coal by 38 per ton. Recent speeches of miners leaders indicate the workers are frankly pursuing a policy of "Sharing the swag

The present situation is controlled by the fact that banker coal is fetching fabulous prices and when com petition forces down the export prices a crisis is inevitable as some coal is already selling at a loss. The miners' secretary, Mr. Hodges, in this connection publicly admitted we were engaged in an industry marching to bankruptcy. When ex- ports fall to approximately normal the mining industry will be insolvent. The "Times" consequently emphasises that the real issue which the miners are endeavouring to force is nationalisa. tion of bankruptcy. The Government reply to the demand will be given on March 24.

LEICESTER A BISHOPRIO?

It is believed in Leicester ecclesiastical circles that a pro- posal is on foot to restore the ancient bishopric of that city by a division of the diocese of Pater- borough. The title of "City" was restored by the King after visiting! Leicester last year: Leicester, with its industrial population of nearly a quarter of a million, is over 40 miles from Peterborough, Ite old church of St. Martin would no doubt be made the cathedral.
