SPECULATE ON TURN IN COAL MINERS’ CASES Will Evidence Palmer Ordered Withheld Be Used in Prosecution? ‘GOOD FAITH’ AT ISSUE Interest in the Federal prosecution of 123 coal mfners and operators under an indictment chargrlni? them with violation of the Lever act centered today In speculation as to whether tbs local Government attorneys will use the evidence which Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer ordered withheld and whether statements of Judge A. B. Anderson in court yesterday presage prosecution of the attorney general. The case was continued until Jan. 10 with the understanding the court will endeavor meanwhile to find out if what he termed as a “good faith” prosecution may be made. Before granting the government’s motion for continuance on the ground that it is unprepared. Judge Anderson said tie action of the Attorney General In ordering the suppression of vital evidence after a grand jury had returned an Indictment based In great part upon It was “strangely near” to compounding a felony and “very close” to being contempt of court. HINGES ON REQUEST OF ATTORNEY GENERAL. The court's statement that he ■will endeavor to ascertain if a “good faith" prosecution can be made is taken to menu be will find out if the evidence which it is alleged the attorney general wants suppressed la to be used. Dan W. Simms, former special assistant United States attorney and assistant to the attorney general, resigned when Mr. Palmer, on Sept. 29, Instructed him not to use In Ihe present prosecution any facts which were connected with the Injunction and contempt proceedings against members of the United Mine Workers In October and November. 1019. Mr. Simms said after the hearing closed yesterday that he will not return to the case. Judge Anderson, in considering the procedure in the case, said: “Would It not be contempt of eourt for a prosecuting officer to bring about a proaecutlon which, from the beginning, would be a farce?” JUDGE DISCUSSES CONTEMPT PHASE. Bearing upon the point of possible contempt proceedings the judge said: "Os all the things that a man who occupies my position dislikes it is contempt proceedings, but let’s see Just how close this gentleman, Mr. Palmer, comes to contempt of this eourt. I m not saying what will happen in~‘the future. I admit that I am bound to have a certain amount of consideration for bis position if not tor the man himself.” The coart then proceeded to quote authorities to show that in cases which be considered par-llel such* alleged interference with the processes of Justice has been held to be contemptuous. Saying he desired to further “clear the atmosphere,” Judge Anderson continued: . “Tho question Is not exactly whether an attorney general can or cannot In certain oases do certain things.” Whether the attorney general after a grand Jury has returned a bill can come Into this court and stop a prosecution whether the court thinks it should be stopped or not I am not now going to decide. But the question is, whether the attorney general after the return of a bill, following an investigation made under instruction* of the court, whether the attorney general can then direct the officers under him to leave out certain important evidence and secure the acquittal of the defendants. This is quite another matter. No attorney general and no district attorney can do that.” The court quoted law to back up his statement that the attorney general came “strangely near” to compounding a felony. QUESTIONS AGREEMENT. “Can the attorney general, In a meeting with people who have already been charged in a sense with the violation oi a statute before a Jndge who has called a grand Jury to investigate, enter into an agreement that if they will be good gnd relieve him of the embarrassment of enforcing an Injunction be will see to It that certain evidence is suppressed ?” Much was made in the hearing of Etatemeztfs which were taken to show that the attorney general made some sort of an agreement with the striking miner* relative to futnre prosecutions. Mr. Simms was recalled to the stand and the court, saying he understood the attorney had said he now had more of an insight into a statement of the miners' attorneys at the time the Indictment was returned, asked him who made the statement and what It was. Mr. ,Simms said that Henry Warrnm, then Chief counsel for the miners, observed in the hall outside the courtroom that “somebody had handed the miners a gold brick.” “Referring to the indictment?" Judge Anderson asked, and received an affirmative reply. “Mr. Warrum, do you want to explain that statement?” the Judge asked. Mr. Warrum did not arise. EISTRICT ATTORNEY PRODUCES TELEGRAMS. Judge Anderson then asked District Attorney Fred Van Nnys to produce certain telegrams which passed between him and Attorney General Palmer about Sept. 30. The messages, which Mr. Van Nuy* read, showed that on Sept. 80, the day after Mr. Simms received the order to exclude the Injunction and contempt proceedings testimony from the present case, Mr. Palmer Inquired if it were true that further Indictments against coal men were being considered; that Mr. Van Nuys replied in the affirmative and that one of Mr. Palmer's assistants wired instructions that the attorney general’s office should be consulted before such action was taken. The Judge Indicated that no matter how Mr. Palmer felt. If the facts warranted further Indictments, he would see that they were brought. “Is It possible that this court can not proceed unless the attorney general approves?” Judge Anderson questioned. In a final thrust at tho attorney general the court recallad that just before that official left Indianapolis Dec. 9, 1919, after arranging for settlement of the coal strike, he came to the court chambers. As they were sWfking hands, the jndge said he asked Mr. Palmer. "It is understood now that this prosecut, on shall go through to the end?” “-Tavo you confidence in your old friends. Slack and Simms?" Mr. Palmer replied, Judge Anderson said. “les,” the court said he answered. “They have instructions to go through to tCo end,” was the attorneys general's rejoinder, the court asserted. *- Mr. Slack would not discuss his plans for the future, merely stating: “I’va done all the talking about this case that I’m going to for awhile.” Risk Agents to Meet Special to Th* Timae.

FOOD PHASE OF NEW LAW FAILS INEXECUTION {Continued From Page One.) investigation is doubtful, unless between now and the time the request is made, should it be made, some action is taken by the commission for obtaining funds, through license fees or otherwise, to conduct such an investigation. BLAME LAID TO LEGISLATURE. - The blame for the tied hands of the commission Is not being laid at the door of the commission, but rather is being placed at tbe feet of the Legislature. Those who are questioning tbe motive*? of the act are wondering why, when, ihe bill was passed, the General Assembly did not provide for some means to gather funds for conducting an investigation of food profiteering, or why It did not make a specific appropriation for the n*e of the commission for its investigation of both coal and food conditions in the State. The period of operation of the special coal and food commission expires March 1, 1921, when, unless the regular session of the Legislature prolongs it, it will pass out of existence. With colder weather practically here, and with the coal situation becoming more and more serious dally, it is reasonable to presume that no time will be left to the commission to Investigate any profiteering in food, as the time and personnel otf the commtsaion Is now occupied entirely In Investigation of the coal sitnatien.

British Plan Ypres Gate as Memorial LONDON, Nov. 9.—For the purpose of Lord Riddell headed a committee which Las visited both countries. “The best suggestion we have had •o far," said Lord Riddell, “1* the erection of a gate on the Menln road, Ypres. It is a matter of pride to the British Army that It held Ypres through all the attacks made upon It, and in Belgium that is the natural choice for a memorial. “There were so many place In France that the British Army made famous by Its courage that it would be difficult to select any particular place. Therefore, it is more than likely that Paris will be selected as the most suitable place for our memorial. “We hope the United States will erect a memorial to their brave men who fell In the straggle. I am certain that this will be done and the scene of tbe last greet—and victorious —effort against the enemy will doubtless be selected by them.” *

ACTION IN DEBS CASE INDORSED Wilson Commended by Legion Adjutants. In accordance wfth unanimous vote at today'B session of the conference of department adjutants of the American Legion, it the Washington hotel, the following telegram was sent to President Wilson: Honorable Woodrow Wilson, Washington, D. C.: Your decision not to pardon Eugene V. Debs, as recently reported in the press, is heartily concurred In by department adjutants of tbe American Legion in conference at Indianapolis. The American Legion views with heartfelt satisfaction this vital act in support of the fundamental doctrines of the Constitution. We believe all other loyal and patriotic citizens will Join with those, who placed their bodies between our nation and the foe without, in practically unanimous indorsement of a policy tnat holds no compromise for the enemies in our midst who would overthrow the Government by force. F. W. GALBRAITH. JR., National Commander, The American Legion. It was decided that a committee of five adjutants, consisting of Hugh W. Robertson of New York, William G. Murdock of Pennsylvania, W. L. Price of Virginia, W. Q. Setllffe of Illinois, Frank J. Abbot of New Hampshire, should go to Washington to confer with the proper officials of the War Department concerning the method to be employed by the department in publication of the names of draft dodgers and slackers. It was explained that the committee was concerned, first, with a plan which will eliminate the Inclusion in such published list of men who Joined some military organization and are unjustly accused of dodging the draft; that It also was the wish to eliminate the names of those who died before they had an opportunity to answer the draft; and, second, that the committee is concerned with placing at the disposal of the War Department 1,500,000 members of the legion In 10,000 posts to assist In apprehending and prosecuting these criminals, and la particularly anxious that speedy action be taken so that the three years limit be not reached before these slackers are arrested and convicted. WARRING BALL FACTIONS BID FOR MINOR AID (Continued From Fog* One.) spoken regarding the proposed Lasker plan, “It will get mighty few votes from the minors." Hickey said. Dave Fultz, president of th*6 International League, who was standing near, agreed. “i believe the American Association wilt present a solid front against the Lasker plan,” Hickey continued. “It seems to be the outgrowth of a quarrel between American League owners. ‘ Until the majors settle their quarrels they can hardly expect the minora to take sidea." It Is evident the minors are not looking for war or anything akin to It. They have the Initiative and the money to go ahead without bothering abour any major league squabbles. No lesa than ten minor league presidents made this plain today. This stand, taken in face of the belief that the new war is going to be either a tPhgedy or the veriest kind of a farce, is the solid stand of 75 per cent of the baseball men gathered here. Whether or not they will maintain It Is a question. What the minors want is equality. TO INSIST COEQUAL RIGHTS. Among other thlnga David L. Fult*, preeident of the new International League, said: “Our position seems quite plain. The minors represent the country and baaeball sane at lsrge. We have vastly more invested In the gam.. l than have the majors and we employ many more players. For the last two years we have been going along smoothly, running things in our own way. and we will be perfectly satisfied to continue.

To Land Big Tarpon Now Harding’s Chief Ambition

POINT ISABEL, Texas, Nov. Throwing aside the restraints of public life President-elect Warren G. Harding got into a soft shirt and baggy trousers today and went out into the bay to flsli for tarpon. His chief ambition on the trip is.to land one of the monster fish, a feat said to be the height of every angler’s desire down here. This afternoon Harding expected to motor over to the Brownsville Country Club for golf. The Harding party shifted as best It could last night, as tbe one train running from Brownsville, jumped the trad with all the baggage aboard. There was much clamor, but ail was In vain ns nobody around would do anything until daylight. There Is great bustle and *tlr in this normally sleepy little fishing valley. No quainter spot could have been chosen by Harding as a retreat than this straggling little place with its low. weather-stained shacks on the bare sandy point here at the southern extremity of Texas, Just six miles from the Mexican border. Senator and Mrs. Harding are quartered In the roomy summer cottage of R. B. Creager, Brownsville lawyer and personal friend of Harding. The low,

I do not doubt that a majority of the minor league owners will—or would have been—willing to cooperate with the major leagues In any move that would benefit baseball, but as things stand today the minors must take the standpoint of spectators, and meanwhilj do the best they can to better condition In their own ranks. Insofar as the visit of major league committee* here today goes, the attitude of the minors will depend altogether on what they have to present. We are looking for no alliance In which we will not have an equal footing with the majors. This is only fair and all thnt any one could expect." The minors went into session here this morning with a young crow to pick among themselves. Politics Is the father oi the crow. The contest is between John A. Farrell, for years secretary and treasurer of the National Association, and Mike Bxton, president us the minor league body. Sexton will be put up for president, secretary and treasurer by one faction. Farrell's friends will attempt to keep him In office. Aside from the election of officers and discussion of plans for the coming season, the minors have little of lmpor.nn' , to do In their own rank* and they will be ready for the major league visitors on reasonably short notice, according to Indications. On** plan, however, was to be pa* before the minor league body. It is a set of resolutions looking toward a campaign to be conducted by the minors for the purpose of having every State legislature in th" country pass it law that will make the recurrence of any such thing as tbe fixing of the 1919 world's series a felony, punishable by flno and imprisonment. This set of resolut on* has been drawn up and Us sponsors vere to read it to the body.
