■DAL MEN MAY f DEMAND MONEY Return of Fees Paid Would Hit State’s General Fund. The State general fund may he forced 'to stand the shock of heavy drawing, should the Federal Court In the bearing for a permanent injunction to prevent the coal commission from carrying out its orders, return a finding for the plaintiffs, thus divesting the coal body of any power in regulating the coal industry in Indiana. Should the commission bo stripped of its power, coal operators and retail and wholesale coal dealers may Insist that the State return to them the money pJld the commission as license fees, and the tonnage fee on production, paid by mine operators, admnlistration officials admit. Members of the State Board of Accounts who served on the commission were forced, under the provisions of the coal commission act, to serve without additional compensation. But about one dozen men and women clerks and stenographers have been hired and are daily putting in time at the Statehonse as a part of the coal commission machinery. And these salaries must be paid, and paid out of the money received from license fees. Jesse E. Esehbach, chairman of the commission and chief examiner of the State Board of Accounts, and who probably has done more work on the coal than nil the others, will receive 1 cent additional salary for his services on the coal commission. The salaries and other expenses paid out of the commission treasury, will nearly deplete the body’s finances. The question arises then, should these operators and coal dealers demand refund of their license fees, on granting of a permanent injunction and the accompanying nullification of power of the coal commission, where will the money come from to reimburse the companies? Section 13 of the special coal end food commission act, in addition to providing means for raising funds for carrying on

Could Not Deport Man of No Country NEW YORK, Dec. 2.—MacGregor Ross, 70, a man without a country, was released from Ellis Islund today after the State Department had unsuccessfully tried for two years to find a country to which to deport him. Ross was arrested In an 1. W. W. raid In Seattle. His name indicated that he was Scotch, but as he could not prove hla birth In that country the Britls-h authorities refused to accept him.

the work of the commission, S3ys: “The money so paid shall be used in paying the expenses of said commission, including salaries, compensation and expenses of the commissioners, agents, clerks, employes, special counsel and assistants. but If not sufficient for that purpose, there is hereby appropriated out of the treasury and out of the funds not otherwise appropriated a sum sufficient to pay all expenses.” Those who have been discussing the possibility of a refund of license fees have declared that out of the general fund will come the money for this purpose. In fact, unofficial opinions from those who are in a position to interpret the act have been to the effect that this is the only place from where the money can come. It Is even hinted that when the law was passed the legislators had fears that the law would not stand the test of the Federal courts, and knew that the money collected would have to be refunded when the act was declared illegal, and so made provision for the emergency, should it arise. In other words, they experimented somewhat with their Inwmnking powers, and p'-ssed the expense of their costly experiment on to the people to be paid out of the general fund of the State.
