I. W. W. PLAN FOR STRIKE FIZZLE Labor Demonstrations in Mexico of Orderly Nature. MEXICO CITY, Sept 27. —Alleged efforts of L W. W. representatives to engage Mexican labor In a general strike ea tb* American continent Oct. 1 ■were a failure, according to the evidence today. Demonstrations here and in other Mexican cities yesterday were orderly, and the only action taken was the adoption of a series of resolutions relating to living costs and working conditions. Previously the I. W. W. delegates had announced that the meetings had been called to arrange for Mexican participation In a general strike to start on the North American continent Oct. 1 and thereafter to spread throughout theworld. In Mexico City 2.000 laborers marched In a parade carrying banners with the usnal labor slogans and listened to a number of speeches regarding labor’s aims and rights. Tbe meeting demanded government action to reduce the cost of living and the appointment of a price regulating commission. Several paraderi. however, gained admission to the national palace and addressed a crowd from a balcony. They urged action for the triumph of the proletariat,” and the downfall of the bourgeoise. One speaker went to the extent of advocating the use of dynamite on the national palace, the chamber of deputies, newspapers and other institutions “Impeding the workers' progress.” Some red flags appeared in the parade. No attempt was made to break up the parade or choke off 'the speeches and there was no disorder.

PASSENGER AXD OTHER RATES DENIED, ■‘lt is further ordered that the application of the petitioner for increases in passenger, baggage, milk and cream, sleeping car and parlor car rates, be. and it is denied. “'lt is further ordered that petitioners, be, and they are authorized to publish the percentage increases herein authorized by special blanket supplements to existing tariffs. as authorized by the Interstate Commerce Commission in special permission No. 50340. dated Aug. 5, 1920, and the provisions of tariff circular 18-A, adopted by the public service commission of Indiana, are temporarily waived to permit of such publication. The rates authorized herein shall not become effective earlier than Oct. 1, 1920.” In stating its attitude on the petition of the railroads and cn the situation generally the commission says: It Is not to be assumed, from the oroer which follows, that this commission takes a hostile attitude to the theory that transportation is a nation-wide lasituation to be dealt with, in the present emergencies calling for rehabilitation of the common carriers, in the broadest spirit that is possible. It fully realizes that additional revenues are necessary and the commission, and the shippers of Indiana, who likewise take a broad view of the situation, desire to cooperate in the national plan of rehabilitation of these great national service agencies. It is not, however, to be expected that this State shall altruistically proceed at this time to Us detriment. This commission now faces a situation very similar to that which confronted it in the year 1917, when carriers sought to establish the same scale of class rates In this State as authorized by the Interstate Commerce Commission for interstate traffic. In the order In that cause, it was pointed out that the level of class rates in Illinois was lower than In Indiana; that If the rates sought by the carriers were made effective the shippers of Indiana would h at a further disadvantage because at that time there was no concrete movement on foot to establish such rates in the State of Illinois. The commission proceeded with caution and drew its order only on explicit understanding with the carriers that they would take steps necessary to bring about, through action in Illinois, a uniformity of intestate and Intrastate rates and conditions In the territory lying east of the Mississippi and north of the Ohio rivers. Certain sacrifices were then made for a temporary period In an effort to promote the ideal of equality, which then seemed to be attainable, and which, if attained, would eliminate discriminations that have long been of serlons concern In this and surrounding States. The approval of rates then authorized was for a period of one year from Dec. 7. 1917 This action, taken In cause 2955. was explicitly stated is being temporary and conditional. The commission slid: ‘•However, should the State of Illinois refuse to establish the proposed rates and modify Its classification, the Public Service Commission of Indiana, In defense of its Industrial and commercial life, will be compelled to establish the same level of rates and the same classification intrastate in Indiana as established Intrastate In the State of Illinois.“ SITUATION NOW MORE SERIOUS THAN IN 1817. Beloro the expiration of the order the United States Government, through the United States Railroad Administration, took over the control of carriers. After a long controversy the Interstate ( ommerce Commission was appealed to for relief and the suggestion.' of ex parte 67 resulted. The situation is now more serious and more clarified than in December. 1917. If this State were to authorize the 40 per cent freight rate increase prayed, the discrimination in competitive territory that is vital to Indiana Industrial and commercial interests, and therefore, to Jfte propsperity and welfare of the

State, would be greatly increased OveT discriminations which the Interstate Commerce Commission, acting in an advisory capacity to the late United States Railroad Administration pronounced unjust. The commission can not do better than follow the advisory finding of the Interstate Commerce Commission. This commission does not believe that the general level of rates in Indiana should be increased by greater extent than Increases in Illinois, and that such an increase can be Justified. This commission does not believe that it is the intention of the Congress, in its enactment of the transportation law, to create rate discriminations between States. Under conditions now prevailing if this State were to authorise the said 40 per cent freight rate increases the result would be to create a rate discrimination against Indiana that would throttle its development. - This commission feels that It would not be discharging its full duty, either to a solution of the nation’s railroad problem or to the people of this State, if it authorized general increases which would establish discriminations between States in a highly competitive district. Touching on other phases of the appended order, the commission also Is of the opinion that it is not the intention of theJTongress to attempt to withdraw from State's jurlsdicion in the matter of adjustment of obvious inequalities, sometimes produced by mistakes and calculations, between intrastate points. In connection with its order concerning Coal, tbe commission ordered the reestablishment of a gas belt differential of 25 cents per net ton on coal over Indianapolis, and also ordered the carriers to preserve existing differentials to othes Indiana points. In speaking of the transportation act of Congress, the commission says: “It is not thought that Congress intended that one State should maintain exactly the same level of rates intrastate as the Interstate Commerce Commission has established for interstate traffic. “To do so would, no doubt, in many cases cause rate situations to arise in which injury done to the shippers of a State or locality would far outweign the prejudice to interstate traffic if such rates were maintained at a lower level.”

HEARINGS OPEN ON COAL COSTS (Continued from Page One.) running days of the mine, and the conditions surrounding each mine. Both mines were situated on the same railroad, yet the attitude of workmen In one mine was a decided contrast to workmen of another mine where coal was produced for a lower price, he explained. Comparisons of the production and consumption of Indiana coal in the State was clearly shown in charts submitted by Mr. Coc-per. In 1915 the total of coa! produced in the State amounted to 17.006,152 tons, while the total coal consumption in the State amounted to 16,716,765 tons, they showed. ( The distribution report of §oal mined in Indiana in 1915 shows that 4,044.526 tong, or 24 per cent of Indiana coal, was sent to Illinois, while 6.394,019 tons or 3S per cent of the coal mined was sent to points in Indiana, while railroads of the State used 6,188,550 tons of 36 per cent. The remaining 2 per cent was distributed in lowa, Michigan, Minnesota and other States. SHOWS AMOUNT OF COAL SENT INTO STATE. The distribution of coal shipments into Indiana in 1915 for consumption, exclusive of railroad coal, gives tbe total consumed as follows: From West Virginia. 4.072,001 tons, or 24 per cent, used mostly for domestic purposes; from tucky mines, 2.556.506 tons, or 18 per cent; from Illinois raises, 823,601 tons, or 5 per cent; from Pennsylvania mines, 855,239 tons, or 5 per cent; from Ohio mines. 350,251 tons, or 3 per cent. Anthracite coal amounted to 600,000 tons, or 4 per cent, while Lake coal of 551,000 tons amounted to 3 per cent, leaving 184.82S tons, or 1 per cent of miscellaneous coal. Shipments Intrastate amounted to 6,394,019 tons, or 38 per cent. The matter of distribution furnishes the chief obstacle to operators, who now ask the commission to first make the arrangement for shipping and to then continue efforts from the mass of statistics and facts placed before them by their representative. The hearing on the fixing of coal prices will be continued indefinitely.

BOARD OF WORKS RESCINDS ACTION (Continued From Page One.) wagons delivering coal and other necessaries to their homes could pass. TRACTION COMPANY PRESENTS OBJECTIpN. The board had a conference with the county commissioners, with the result the order to lay the tracks around Crescent avenue, which is the route originally specified In the franchise of the company, granted twenty years ago, was Issued. Will H. Latta, attorney for the traction company, and Merle N. Walker, attorney for the Snceban Construction Company, accompanied by Mr. Hayes, came before the board today objecting to the Crescent avenue order for the rea. son that the traffic situation would nor be Improved and the traction company wonld suffer great additional expense for a longer stretch of track. He suggested that the better routing would be in the middle of the street, whlhh was agreed to by Mr. Walker. The board finally agreed to this and issued an order for It, specifying that the car company shall pave between its track to conform to the pavement of the rest of the street. Since the division of the pavement which the Sheehan Construction Company is laying into two portions by the new routing of the track will increase the cost of the work between $5,000 and SB,OOO, It is estimated, Mr. Hayes agreed with Mr. Walker that the matter of additional compensation to the contractor shall be taken up at a later date. HAYES OI’FERS BEST WAY OUT. Speaking of the legal difficulties In the way of adding this extra cost to the contractor's remuneration Mr. Hayes said: "Put it in the center of the street and iron it out afterward.” The board received bids as follows; Grading of Julian avenue, from Emerson avenue to Bancroft street, J. H. King & Cos., 48 cents per lineal foot. Grading and graveling of Eleventh street, from Centennial street, north, to Centennial street, south, George W. McGray, $3.49 per lineal foot. Grading, graveling and curbs In Centennial street from Tenth street to the first alley north of Twelfth street; Abel Brothers, $3.13 per lineal foot; George W. McCray, $3.00. Cement sidewalks in Centennial street from Tenth street to the first alley north of Twelfth street; Abel Brothers, $2.41 per lineal foot. Cement sidewalks and curbs In Yandea street from Sixteenth to Nineteenth streets; Abel Brothers, $3.04 per lineal foot; Frank Lawton, $3.11. U. S.

Near Broadford, a police sergeant was ambushed and shot. Arthur Griffith, acting “president” of the “Irish Republic," writing in “Young Ireland," charges that Unionists in Ireland plan a week of rioting attacks against Sinn Feiners. Steps are being taken to prevent Irish newspapers, containing accounts of disorders, being sent to Canada. The situation in Ireland was an absorbing topic for the British press today. With one exception there was condemnation for the bloody reprisals of the "black and tan” police. The exception was the Post, which jeered “hypocritical condemnation” of the so-called' reprisals against cowardly savages calling themselves the army of the Irish republic, who apparently are “conceded the right to murder with impunity.” The Government apparently unmoved by the comments continued advertising today for recruits to the auxiliary constabulary. The Italian food controller, Imbertl, arriving here from a visit to Ireland, denied the home of the late Lord Mayor Mac Curtain had been wrecked by government forces. He said the military had raided the house to obtain seditions literature. Not a shot was fired, he said, and a story that the lord mayor's widow was fired on was a fantastic Invention. BUILDINGS BURNED IN REPRISALS DUBLIN, Sept. 27.—Forty hulldings were burned in reprisals today at the town of Trim, twenty-five miles from Dublin. The hotel and the market ball were set afire. Residents of the town fled from It In panic. BRITISH EMBASSY IN U. S.

In hie attack of Wheeler, Cox claimed the Anti-Saloon League counsel Is a “mere chattle of Republican headquarters.” Referring to the statement of Senator Harding’s secretary that the Republican candidate still owns some Marlon brewery stock which he bought several years ago, Cox said : "How can Mr. Wheeler explain to conscientious members of his organization, his support -vpf the presidency of the United States of a brewer who is apologizing for his holding?" In bis speech here today Cox appealed to the church people “to forget the party ticket their forefathers may have voted and to vote for our sharing in the only practical way that has been suggested to end war.” COX’S MIDDLE WESTERN TOUR SET NEW YORK, Sept. 27,-Partial Itinerary Cox’s Middle Western tour was announced today at Democratic headquarters as follows: Oct. 7, Elizabethtown and Bowling Green, K.r., and Nashville, Tenn.; Oct.

Sept. 27 —ln an address here Saturday night Dr. .Carlton McCulloch, the Democratic nominee for Governor, compared the administration of Governor Goodrich with that of Governor Ralston, his Democratic predecessor and predicted that Warren T. McCray, the Republican gubernatorial candidate, will perpetuate Goodrlchlara if elected. Dr. McCulloch charged that the State is again on tbe verge of bankruptcy aud compared the present condition of the State treasury with the manner in which It was left by Governor Ralston. When the latter went out of office there was more than $3,000,000 in the public till, he said, “Wilful waste makes wilful want." said the candidate “Mr. Goodrich campaigned the State on the theory that a 35 per cent aaving could be made in the State administration. “Presumably he based hts theory on the magnifl ent showing made by the Democrats who in their term of office bad paid off a *Stste dbt that had hung over our heads like a sword of Damocles for more than eighty years. “Now our State finances are chaotic. “If a Republican administration la returned to power our citizens bite no reason to hope for improvement. “Mr. McCray ta running on a platform that indorses the Goodrich administration. "A leopard can not change Its spots nor can we hope for better politico from tbe same personnel and the same set of men conducting our affairs. “The State is again on the verge of bankruptcy after four years of Goodricblsm. “Ftgues ehow that on Sept. 1, with the total of unpaid bills subtracted, there was less than $600,000 on which the State government and State institutions had to operate for the next three months. “The monthly expense of our State govwnment is In excess of $200,000 a month, and thus it will be seen that there will be migbtly little left by the time the fall taxes come in." , Dr. McCulloch pledged that if elected the State government would be put back on a business like foundation.

GROUP PAPER DECLARESFOR LEAGUE PACT (Continued From Page One.) of serious trouble; Poland and Lithuanie have checked a war already begun in order that the league may have opportunity to. tramp out the sparks. “In one case the danger of war is to be averted; in the other hostilities already In progress are to be ended; n both the wdy of reason and arbitration is to be followed rather than that of strife and bloodshed. "While opponents of the League of Nations are declaring in one breath that it is dead, and in the next that it Is a menace to the world’s concord, dramatic answer comes to both charges in tho fact that the League of Nations, operating as a living organizatiofc is preventing war and restoring peace. NOT VAGUE ASSOCIATION “It is to be noted that It is not some vague association of nations, nebulously nascent in the minds of certain gentlemen, but the League of Nations, created at Versailles and operating under the much-abused covenant, which commands tbe confidence of Sweden, Finland, Poland and Lithuania, and acta now as the world’s defense against new strifes. “The case of Poland and Lithuania is of particular interest. Lithuania is not a member of the league. She has agreed to the submission of the case la recognition of the moral authority of a body in which she has no place. She accepts the principle of peaceful settlement because it has been given a definite form and means for functioning in the league. While it remained an abstraction it could be ignored. But embodied in an organization which represents the reason and good will of mankind It can not be Ignored. “Thus a great principle obtains compelling moral authority through a mechanism designed for its application, calls a halt to marching armies, silences guns and summons nations in controversy to the arbitrament of reason and Justice. "The best answer to the league s opponenta is the league itself. It moves with wise deliberation to the doing of its appointed tasks. Quietly it has been charting out the field of work while men have Jeered and maligned and misrepresented. In spite of all efforts to weaken and belittle it. we see the notions turning to It for help and guidance. Hiram Johnson scoffs at it, but Sweden and Finland trust iti Borah proclaims it a maker of wars, but Poland and Lithuania lay down their arms and agree to follow its path of peace. “America cannot afford to stand aloof from the League of Nations. Whatever ita defects, it la Justifying Itself. By its service it is claiming America's cooperation in making it stronger, wiser aud fitter for the guarding of the world’* welfare.” Report 4 Burglaries, 1 Hold-up in 48 Hours

GARBAGE PLANT FIRE SHOWS UP UTILITY WASTE (Continued From Page One.) times for weeks, practically eliminated if modern motor equipment, such that it might also be used in ash collection, were purchased for the garbage collection department. The plan would then be to use the greater part of the combined equipment for ash collection in the winter when garbage is light and the majority for garbage removal in the summer when the work of the ashhaullng department is correspondingly easy. Under the present system, the champions of the new plan atate, most of the ash equipment lies around the city yards unused through the warmer months, while tbe present ancient garbage equipment ruata and falls to pieces during the winter. The work of both departments might be done with even less total equipment than used at present if some plan for the interchanging of apparatus were devised, some officials say. They also recall that some time ago City Purchasing Agent Dwight S. Ritter prepared an estimate on the cost of motorizing tbe garbage collection department. which showed that the total cost would be around $60,000. It la being pointed out by those whose Ups are not sealed by the two contending boards that It Is very likely that at least $40,000 worth of horse and muledrawn equipment and animals to haul it 'will have to be bought for garbage collection purposes within a year or so, the equipment which the city bought from the Indiana Reduction Company, frequently being described as being in miserable condition even at tbe time it was purchased. It costs, in round figures, $50,000 per year to feed the animals and repair tbe ancient equipment now in use, while the advocates of the modern system say. motor equipment could be operated and repaired for not more than $30,000. Thus the city could purchase $60,000 worth of hew motor equipment, which would be amply sufficient to handle garbage and help out the ashhaullng department, and still spend r.c more money next year than would be used if the present antiquated system is continued. The total cost’of new horse equipment and upkeep would be $90,000, for which sum the motor equipment could be purchased and repaired, and after the motor apparatus is paid for the upkeep would be some $20,000 less. s. All this, as has been said above, baa been repeatedly called to the attention of the boards of public works and sanitation, but without result. Mayor Charle# W. Jewett might, by the exercise of a bit of the executive authority supposed to be vested in him. force the warring board# to forget their squabble ever which one ought to assume tho Job of cellecting garbage and get busy really collecting it, but the mayor has teen too busy for months raising bogs and making Republican political orations to spend more time in his office than ■was absolutely necessary for the signing or vetoing of ordinances sad other routine matter* and to receive a few of the nore important political personages whom he dates not <>ffnd
