STRIKING MINERS IN KENTUCKY
INSIST ON MAINTAINING
THEIR CAMP
A LAWYER BACKS THEM UP
Judge Hall Says Adjutant General
VIII Enforce His Order, but
the Militia Is Discreet
Iy Quiescent.

JACKSONVILLE, KY, Nov. 23.-The
striking union men continue defiant, and
remain tonight in camp near the mines.
They hold that the order of Judge Hal
is illegal, and treat it with contempt.
The strikers are in greater numbers than
before, Notwithstanding the fact that the
time limit Of Judge Halls order that
the camps should be disbanded and NOV
ed out of the country expired more than
twelve hours ago.
Their action in failing to obey the order
of the court for breaking camp and dis
banding is prompted by the advice OF
Judge w H. Yost, Of Greenville, chief
counsel for the United Mine Workers.
Yost and President Wood, of the Mine
Workers, are both defiant in their talk,
and declare that the courts order was a
farce, illegal in the extreme. and issued
without authority. Before Judge Yost
left Nortonville this morning he was ask
ed if his advice to his clients was the
same, and reiterated his statement OF
last night that they would remain in
camp. The following from Yost is his
opinion of Judge Halls order, and his
advice to Wood:
Judge Halls order Is entirely with
out authority of law, and 1 have adj
vised that the men stay right here in
camp, which is now their home"
L
ent visited the camp today the strikers
seemed satisfied with their quarters, and
were In good spirits. More than 200 men
were assembled in camp. with probably
100 more In the vicinity The lodging ca
pacity of the camp Is about 200 1t Is
estimated that there are $50 or 300 union
men in Nortonville and the camp. There
Is much speculation about the reception
the militia will receive when they march
on the camp to make effective Judge
Halls order.
Hall Seems Determined.
There is no change in Judge Halls de-
termination to have his order executed.
This afternoon after comforting with
Gen. Murray on his return from the
camp, he made the following statement:
There has been no change in my deter
mination to dispense the camp, and the
orders have been given Gen. Murray so
that he may get his forces in readiness
sufficient to meet the emergency, as his
discretion may suggest"
Gen. Murray at once began preparations
for carrying out the courts orders, and
intinated tonight that he would act as
soon as he thought best to do so. There
is a rumor, not confirmed by Gen. M1r-
ray, that the soldiers will be sent to the
camp at o'clock tomorrow morning and

reached.
The First Three-Minute Horse.
The first time a horse trotted in three
minutes In public for a stake in this
country was In 1918, and was a match
against time for 81 900.
True Blue was taken to England,
where he won several important trotting
matches. He trotted eighteen miles
within the hour for 500 sovereigns. True
Blue was one of the first horses to be
exported to Europe from this country.
During the year 1900 80.3S0 horses were
exported from this country, valued at
$500, 00O,0 900.
AS there were no tracks for trotting IN
those days, True Blue trotted his race
on the road at Jamaica, Long Island.
He went under saddle, and was timed by
two men who rode running horses by his
side. The year 1925 brings US to what
may be called the origin Of authorized
and authenticated trotting, in which
trotting performances were recorded.
The New York club built a trotting
track near Jamaica, L. l., in 1926. The
first race trotted over that track was
in May, 1925. It was race for purse
of $780, two mile heats to saddle, and
In $3.50, 5:SS, while the present two-m1le
record is 4:33, held by Greenlander.
The second trotting track In the Unit
ed States was the Hunting park course,
Philadelphia, on the same grounds where
Hunting park, on the Old York road, Is
now located. The track was bunt In 1928.
The first meeting Of the Hunting Park
association was held at the Old indian
Queen tavern, South Fourth street, Phil
adelphda, Feb. g. 1928. The first race over
the Hunting park track was trotted Feb.
Is, 1925 The first horse to trot a mile
under 2:45 was a horse called Yankee.
He trotted a mile over the Hunting park
track in 3:44h1s. June, 1880.
Many Of the most famous trotters in
those days started from Philadelphia, and
trotted their first race over the Hunting
Park track. One Of the most famous
stations of those days was foaIed in a
backyard not over half mile from
Hunting Park course, and trotted his
first race over that track. It was no
