Coal Mines Produce 31 ore Fnel than Ever Before. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. TERRE HAUTE, Ind., Jan. 7. The output of coal in the Indiana field the first three days of this week was larger than ever before In the same number of days. The full complement of 12,000 men at the mines was more generally at work than at any time since that many men have been engaged In the industry in the State, and it Is only since last fall that so many men have been employed. The holiday vacation, which a considerable number of miners took over Christmas and New Year's and until the first day of this week permitted an accumulation of cars at the mines so that there was no drawback on the usual ground of car shortage. The railroad companies also have been better fixed for motive power since the rush of holiday mercantile traffic. At several mines which have direct railroad connection with Chicago, where &5 per cent, of the Indiana bituminous coal and nearly as large a percentage of the block product is sold, have agents on the road to get more miners. In some other fields which are not on Chicago lines there is also a shortage of men. such for instance as the Jackson Hill Company. Sullivan county, in which Crawford Fairbanks Is Interested. Notwithstanding the general complaint of shortage of coal in December, Indiana's output will be found, when the reports are all in, to have been from 10 to 15 per cent, greater than ever before in one month. The prospect now Is for a still larger output In January, and as many persons have found that they can use soft coal instead of anthracfte for domestic use. the demand for the better qualities of Indiana coal is expected to be normally larger than heretofore. Will Mine It Orrn Coal. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. KOKOMO, Ind., Jan. 7.

Rusch. of the Circuit Court, by a committee of the Bar Association was begun to-day behind

closed doors. Many witnesses have been summoned. The report of the committee is expected early next week. There is no doubt that the Judge tried to collect $750 from Probate Commissioner Hawkins and f250 from Bailiff Sandtrs. The only thing to determine is whether he tried to secure this money in return for the appointrr ent of these men. or whether they offered the money as voluntary contributions. The judge intended that the sums in question should be used as partial reimbursement for campaign expenses. It 13 paid that the county committee assessed Judge Hasch after he had secured the nomination.

A peace conference between committees representing the American and National leagues Is now assured. After much quibbling by the head of the two major leagues and the postponement of the conclave which was set for last Monday, Ban Johnson, president of the American League, to-day announced that the session would be held in Cincinnati on Friday. Johnson made the announcement following the receipt of a letter from President Garry Herrmann, of the Cincinnati club of the National League, and chairman of the committee of that organization. It is said the National League committee will not have full power to act, but that President Herrmann in his letter said that the members of the committee would be in constant touch with the rest of the National League managers, so there would be no delay in any action that might be taken. This latest phase Is taken as a concession by the American League committee, as President Johnson origlnally asserted that his committee would not meet the National League committee unless the latter had full power to act. The American committee will go Into the meeting with the full determination to defeat any prop osition bearing on territorial rights, but It is authoritatively announced on the other Laad that th National cosuattU will la-

slst on certain limitation as to territory for the future. Johnson's committee will try to make the question of players' contracts the leading issue at the meeting. President Johnson is unalterably opposed to contract Jumpers, and he will insist that the National League managers give back every man that has signed a bona fide American League contract or else blacklist the offender. Iresident Herrman ha accepted the date set by President Johnson, and will decide to-morrow whether the conference will be held at the Grand Hotel, in Cincinnati, or at the Laughry Club, near Aurora, lnd.

Such disappointment comes not seldom when the lace turned to you shows disfiguring blotches and blemishes. In general the cause of these eruptions is impure blood. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery purifies the blood, and removes the corrupt accumulations which cause disease. When the blood is cleansed, pimples, tetter, salt-rheum, boils, sores, and other results of impure blood, are perfectly and permanently cured. "For three years I suffered with that dreaded disease eczema," writes Mrs. J. Koepp, of Herman, Oregon. WI was told to try Dr. Tierce's Golden Medical Discovery, which I did, and after I had taken fourteen bottles X was permanently cured. It has been a year since I stopped taking your medicine and it has never appeared since. I think your medicine s wonderful cure snd hope others suffering as I did, will take it and be relieved of their suffering." Some of the most remarkable cures effected by n Golden Medical Discovery," have been of scrofulous diseases. I will forever thank you for advising me to take Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery," writes Mrs. Jas. Murphy, of Fonda, Pocahontas Co., Iowa. It has cured me of chronic scrofula of twelve years' standing. I had doctored for the trouble until I was completely discouraged. I also had chronic diarrhea for twelve years. I tu in good health now better than I ever was in mv life, owing to Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. I took several bottles of the Discovery before I stopped." Accept no substitute for w Golden Medical Discovery." There is nothing "just as good" for diseases of the stomach, blood and lungs.
