CLAIM MINERS
CAUSE SHORTAGE
Lawyers ArgueQ Question
Of Insuff1ciency Of
Coal Supply.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 22.-The ques-
ton of who is responsible for the appar-
ent shortage in the supply of anthracite
coal was the subject of much debate to-
day by the attorneys representing the
parties before the strike commission. 1t
was testified that the miners are not
obeying President Mtchell's request to
make extra efforts to produce more coal
to relieve the famine. This was follow
ed by J. S. Torrey and Everett Warren,
both of Scranton, who represent several
of the large companies, challenging the
correctness of Mitchell's statement that
5000 men are idle and ready to go. to
work. c. S. Darrow for the miners re-
piled that he would show that it was the
operators and not the miners who were
responsible for the shortage in the pro-
duction.
The Lehigh Valley Cos. Company closed
its case to-day, and the Lehigh and
Wilkesbarre Company consumed few
hours in presenting it's evidence. This
company closed shortly before adjourn
ment and the independent officers of the
upper region then took up the operators
side of the controversy.
1t is expected the hearing will last
ten more days The commission informed
the attorneys on both sides this after
noon that it would like to confine their
final arguments to about four or five
days. The lawyers will agree among

ANKENY STILL IN THE LEAD.
Needs but Seventeen Votes More to
Be Elected Washington's Senator

OLYMPIA. 4 Wash, Jan. 22.-In two
ballots cast for United States Senator
to-day Levi Ankeny added two votes to
his strength, making his total fifty-two
or within seventeen votes of enough to
elect Both votes came from Harold
Preston's strength, but Preston gained
one vote from John L Wilson, so the
record of balloting shows the loss of
only one vote for both Preston and Will
son. Preston now has Il and Wilson II.
The ten scattering votes do not stay
with any one man. They are mostly
strong railroad commission men, and il is
claimed that they will go in the Sena-
torial contest where they can secure the
best returns for the railroad commits
sion bill.
1t is believed Ankeny still has some
votes he can draw from other candidates
from day to day.
Only slight changes are anticipated for
tomorrow, unless the King County dele
cation, which is in almost constant can
Gus, decides upon how it can reconcile
its coTNicting desires to see Preston
elected and the railway commission bill
defeated.
The railway and Senatorial problems
now seem inseparably involved with
each other.

FULTON GAINS ONE VOTE.

SALEM, Or. Jan. 22.-No material
change is expected in the Senatorial bal
lot tomorrow. The change of CHM from
Geer to Fulton to-day was somewhat of
a surprise. though it has been generaIlv
known that eventually CHM would vote
for Fulton. The latter now has practi-
cally two Of the doubtful votes on rec
ord and is generally believed to have at
least four more that he can get at anv
time. Fulton's supporters claim that
votes will be turned to him gradually.
The Multnomah delegation of nineteen
is still scattering it's votes and shows no
signs of giving support to either Geer or
Fulton.
The ballot to-day resulted as follows:

NATURALIZATION
IS NO DEFENSE

LONDON, Jan. 22.-The contention of
Colonel Arthur Lynchs counsel that his
client was absolved of treason by virtue
OF the naturalization act was overruled
by the court to-day the court deciding
that the naturalization act afforded no
defense in this case. Naturalization was
preceded. the court declared. by taking
an oath of allegiance to the enemy,
which was a reasonable act.
LONDON, Jan. 22.-The court was
again crowded to-day. After reading the
deposition of an American. Lewis Hand
ley, who said Colonel Lynch had COM
PEELED him to take up arms in behalf OF
the Beers at Glencoe, but who had got
of through the Intervention of the Amer
ican Consul, counsel for the defense sub
mitted his argument that the prisoner
was protected by the naturalization laws.
He claimed that a man was entitled to
become an alien at any time, even after
the outbreak of war. He referred to the
war of independence, saying there were
at least $4,000 men of British birth in the
American mercantile marine, and assert
ed that there We're 20,090e0 people in
America who possessed the two nationali-
ties.
took up arms in behalf of the Transvaal
without secrecy and under the mistaken
belief that the naturalization act per
mitted this. In any event, counsel added,
If the court decided the prisoner was a
British subject he oughG to be tried in
Australia, where he was born.
The Attorney General Sir Robert Fin
lay. replying for the prosecution, argued
that Colonel Lynch procured naturali-
zation for the purpose Of fighting against
his own country, and added that even
could naturalization cover the prisoner 5
subsequent actions, it could not cover his
anterior reason, namely, adhering TO the
Queens enemy and declaring his willing
ness to fight against her forces"
