slMMS BREAKS IN AGAIN
Man Who Cant BE Located, but Who
Writes Letters AbOut the Schafer
Murder Case.

Brazil, Ind, June 9-The mysteri-
Gus Wallace Simms has broken into
the Schafer murder case again. Simms
is the unknown individual who has fig
ured more or less in the crime at
Bedford. Mrs. Emily Boulware, who
formerly lived with her granddaugh-
ter, Mrs. Bullock, here, recently sent
a communication to the Indianapolis
News concerning the Bedford murder.
Shortly after the communication APP
peared Mrs. Boulware received a let
ter from Louisville, KY, signed by
Wallace Simms. in which he made the
same statements that appeared in his
letters to Mayor Hickson Smith at
Bedford.
Mrs. Boulware sent copy of the
letter to the Bedford authorities.
Simms, in his letter to her, told her
to write another communication to the
Indianapolis News, using certain words
that he set out in his letter. and then
she would be appraised of the identity
of the murderer. Instead, she sent
letter to the address Simms gave at
Louisville and her letter was returned
to her. 1t had never been called for
at the Louisville postoffice.

DISPUTE AS TO BASIS
Another Worry for the Bituminous
Coal Operators and Dig
gers to Consider.
TANGLEovER THE RUN-oF-MINE
Mysterious Wallace Simms at Work
on the Schafer Case Again
State News Items.

Terre Haute, Ind. June 9.-The ex-
ecutive boards of the Indiana Opera
tors ASSOCIATION and district No. IL,
of the United Mine Workers, which
comprises the bituminous field Of Indi-
ana, has begun joint session on the
mine-run issue raised In Sullivan coun-
ty, which bids fair to involve the min
ing industry of the state. Miners al
lege that there is a purpose on the
p;ert of the operators to use the Sui
Ivan issue as wedge to open the
mines of the state for the introduction
of the mine-run basis of paying for
mining.
Illinois Competition q Factor.
Some years ago the Illinois legisla-
ture passed law STIMULATING that min
ers should he paid ON the basis Of
weight of coal as it came from the
mine and before being screened. In
the Danville district there are nearly
half as many miners as in all Indiana.
The product Of the Indiana mines
comes in competition with the prod
uct of the Danville district in the Chi
cago and northwest markets.
Indiana Basis Is Screened.
The Indiana basis of pay is on
screened coal, and some Indiana OPP
orators asked permission to use the
mine-run basis, saying they must have
it to meet the Danville district COM
petition. President John Mitchell ar
ranged that Indiana miners could ac-
cept the basis at each mine by mutual
agreement with the operators, and this
was done at Star City, Alum Cave.
Hymera and Jackson Hill, Sullivan
county, but it was stipulated that
from year to year the contract should
be renewed only by mutual agreement,
and that the miners had the reserved
right to demand what is called the
double-standard which is the Indiana
standard, and receive pay on the
screened mine basis.
Where the Difficulty Comes In.
At the mines named this demand
was made this spring The operators
objected. The miners said the opera
tors of other mines were getting ready
to make like demand for mine-run on
the ground that they needed 1t to meet
the competition with the four other
mines. This brought from the other
operators i'm the Sullivan field a signed
statement that the yhad no objection
to the four mines being operated on
the mine-run basis. The miners said
this statement did not met the point
that the operators did not say they
would not make the demand, and that
should tue concession be made for Sui
Ivan county, the Greene county op
orators would follow with like de
mand. ~1
