Two Lake County Men Seek Post Glenn Harris and Otto Fifield Seek Speakership of Legislative House. rTIMCS BUHEHU AT STATE CAFITiLl INDIANAPOLIS. 1ND.. July 28 LaM county will have to dectda on a course of action if it intends to land the peakerhiR of the house of representatives at the 1921 session of the general assembly. The legislators attending the special session declare that they believe that Lake county has an excellent chance cf landing: this important legislative post. Representative Glenn Harris probably has the best chance of any man in the house to land the place. He has campaigned for the place for months. In fact he -was a receptve candidate at the last regular session, and made formidable advances for the post upon several occasions late last year and again this year when special sessions threatened. His chances may be weakened by the fact that another Lake county representative is also seeking the place. It is asserted that Representative Otto G. Fifleld of Hebron is a candidate for the speakership. Should both of these Lake county men put up a serious scrap for the place at the regular cession it is possible that an outsider may be chosen. At the present time Mr. Harris has much the best chance of gaining the favor" of the representatives. This is not to the discredit of Mr. Fifleld. who is generally respected by the mem bers. but he is under the disadvantage rt being late in making his candidacy known. Mr. Karris is regarded as equipped for the place. He is alert and shrewd and Is carable In every way of handling the house.

t INTER NATIONAL NEWS VCE1 INDIANAFOLIS. IND.. July Js effort will be made by the United Mine Workers to enforce an Immediate shut down of all mines operating In tho central-competitive fieldrnvol ving some I10.000 men. as a result of the settlement at Danville, 111., it was believed certain today. In a statement Saturday night. Trfsldent Lewis, of - the Mine Workers, declared that any settlement made In Illinois which modified the basic inter-state agreement." woul dresult in such a step unless applicable to all mines of the central competitive field." When the International News Service dispatch from Danville was read to the miners executive he expressed the view that the mines in which set tlement was made are probably independent mines, not members of the operators' association. While Mr. Lewis declined to be quoted, it is known he holds the opinion that such settlement may be subject to later adjudication, along with the hoped-for Interstate agreement.

SUBSTITUTE FUEL OIL FOR COM

Oil Being Used in the Gary

Steel Mills Because of the Great Coal Shortage.

Fuel oil. fed by huge burners is to

be used by the Gary Steel Mills as a

substrtute for coal, until the serious

ness of the coal shortage shows signs

of improvement, according to an announcement made by officials yesterday. The oil burners were first put Into use during the big coal miners strike last winter. Tar, another coal substitute, was also consumed in large quantities. Monday of this week the oid burners were re-lighted and officials hope to keep the main cogs of the plant in operation until the crisis passes. Oil is now being shipped into the mills in large tank cars from Whitin? end other shipping points. It is said that the 900.000 gallons of Oil In storage tanks at the plant are being rut into use. According to a rough estimate the mills will need something '.;ke 30,ooo gallons a day to operate, but whether this amount can be shipped in fast eniugh Is a question. Open hearths Nos. 2 and 3 are running on tar while No. 4 will burn oil. Eastern coal only has been received in the plant for some time and it is the large supply of western coal from the Illinois and Indiana mines that has been used in the operating cf the open hearths. Superintendent Gleason yesterday txpresed a belief that the serious situation in which the shortage of coal places the industries would of necessity clarify in a few days. "It 13 of such tremendous interest to the cauntry at large and threatens the whole country that some agreement will have to reach an agreement soon. Ferhaps tomorrow will tell the tale." A number of eastern mills operate with oil while in the natural gas regions the gas U used as the chief fuel in the mills. Gary Works, however, has been operating entirely on coal. The coke plant is using up what coal Gary Works can get shlpred. but enough fuel is not being produced to keep up a normal supply of iron from the furnaces or steel for the mills.

DEMAND GIRL'S REINSTATEMENT

The Indiana Box Company, which is located on the East Chicago canal near Forsythe avenue, has been able to keep

their employes satisfied with fair hours

and good wage, but this morning they struck a snag when about fifty of thi

employes walked out with the demand that one of the girls who was discharge

ed yesterday be re-employed. The girl waa discharged, officials say, because her work was unsatisfactory, but apparently that made no dif

ference to her friends who demanded that she be re-employed before any of them returned to work. The crowd stood around the entrance to the plant for a couple of hours but attempted no violence. They then returned

home.

The plant ordinarily employs about one hundred and twenty-five persons and although the loss of fifty materially slows up production officials assert that operation will be continued and predict that most of the strikers will be back to work within a few days.

It waa agreed upon and Mr. Naydeman went ahead with the construction of the garage, he has .brought suit against Smith in the Harr-mond Superior court to have the title to the strip of land quieted In his name.
