Information was received in this city
last evening to the effect that Leon
Graves, the young man who was
bank at Ogden. and whose extradition
was refused by the governor of New
York, was again in trouble, being
charged with assault upon a New York
attorney. The first reports stated that
he had tried to murder the attorney
while on board the latter's yacht
Further particulars were received later
from The Herald's Ogden correspond
ent, who sent the following dispatch:
ogden, Utah, July 17.-Dr.
Graves received word tonight to the
effect that his son Leon was in trouble
in New York, and the wires were at
once put at work TO find out the nature
of the trouble. DIR. Graves was con-
siderably agitated over the affair The
first reports accused Leon of being con-
cerned in an attempted assault and
robbery. committed on the person of an
attorney who had pleaded his case in
the recent attempt at extradition, when
Graves was charged with robbing the
Utah Loan & Trust bank.
Later reports showed that the attor-
ney was named Clark. and that he was
of the firm of Scott & Clark DR..
Graves said that these were the at
torneys not for Graves. but for Boston,
and he knew they had been having
some trouble over money which had
been sent to Boston and which he pre-
suIned the attorneys wanted TO ap-
propriate for services. He thought at
first that the affair must have been Il
c4r Gc, n
that the police being called in the mat
ter it had come to the knowledge of
the newspapers.
Later, however, another report came
which put most serious phase on the
affair. 1t was admitted that his son,
Leon, and another young man. had
been arrested for assault with intent
to commit robbery. and perhaps muir
der. The other young man was not
Barton
The affair occurred in private room,
but whether in the room of the young
man or of the attorney, was not stated.
There was mention of a sandbag in one
of the dispatches, and it was stated
that Clark had received a serious
wound on the head, either from a sand
bag or from some other weapon. Both
the boys were put under arrest.
The friends of Graves think the mat
the notoriety given him before in the
robbery of the Loan & Trust bank. and
succeeding Developments 1t will be
remembered that 5000 disappeared
from the vault of the bank in Decem-
Der of last year, and that suspicion
pointed to Clarence Barton and Leon
Graves as the boys who got the cash.
Chief Davenport went after them. and
after weeks of search located them in
New York. They were arrested and
long attempts at extradition followed,
but they failed. The boys friends stood
by them, and the best Of attorneys
were employed. The governor refused
to give the boys up on the showing
made. Since then the boys have been
living in New York and but>little has
been heard of them.
DR.. Graves says he has wired a
friend there for a complete account of
the affair. and until it arrives he will
not talk OF the trouble.

Pittsburg, July 17.-District mining
officials have come TO a realization of
the gravity Of the coal miners strike
situation, as far as the shipments of
coal from the district just east of Pitts
burg and the Clearfield and Cambria
coal districts are concerned. They have
come to a realization of the fact that
coal from these centers is playing
havoc with the cutting off of supplies
for the Pittsburg trade, thus militat-
ing against the success Of the strike.
An important meeting of the eXecu-
tive board and the district officials was
held this afternoon. Cameron Miller.
the national organizer, was present,
and the situation was discussed in de-
tail. 1t is now proposed to send or
ganizers into the districts, and, if pos
sible, induce the men to come out in
sympathy. 1t is not expected to bring
every miner in these sections out

a change, with indications strongly in
favor of the miners coming out The
miners officials believe that the West
Virginia miners will be out Monday
morning. There was very little doing
in the local coal market today. There
was no change in the price, plenty OF
the output being offered at $L25, the
same price as the day previous.
One prominent operator was heard-to
say that if the West Virginia men
came out there would be great danger
OF q coal famine.
Many are in hopes that the uniform
.ty agreement will be signed, and are
fighting shy Of making any large pur-
shases. Opinion seems to differ, as has
always been the case with Pittsourg
coal operators.
They apparently realize that lack of
confidence in each other has distr1b-
uted the trade. and done much toward
4he general mixed condition of the coal
Tade
The ranks of the miners are still
holding firm, with no sign of a break
a any point A very large number of
meetings viii be held tomorrow, TO give
encouragement to the men. Arbitra-
ton Commissioner Schmidt. who is the
only one OF the commission in the city
tonight, received a telegram from
Commissioner of Labor Barton Of West
Virginia, announcing that the situation
in that state was entirely changed. and
that he expects the miners to strike.
