STATE OF WAR
IN THE G.. o. p.

Washington, Nov. 22.--The Gov
ernment Printing ONCE is In an up
roar, bordering on revolution, all
because of the administration OF ar
fairs by Public Printer Stillings.
Friends of tho Public Printer claim
the unprecedented discomfort In due
to the rotten conditions In which the
Office was left by the preceding ad-
minstratlon. His enemies lay Il to
the Outrageous treatment" to which
he has subjected the office force.
Nothing is heard I'm the big prin-
tory these days but discussion OF
the charges MIR. stilllngs made
through his mouthpiece, Private
Secretary Collins, that the employees
as n whole are unreliable. IL is
claimed that sleuths. carried on the
payroll at $4,000 q year, are intro
duced into the Office to mako secret
reports of the employees.

CHANGE IN PLANS
FOR THAW TRIAL

New York. Nov 22.-Develop-
ments late today make IL certain the
trial of Harry Kendall Thaw on the
charge of having murdered Stanford
White, the architect, will not take
place before Recorder Gon in the
court of general session as IL had
been thought would be the case. The
trial will take place in the criminal
branch of the supreme court. Justice
Greenbaum granted transfer TODAY ON
application of District ATTORNEY Ter.
ONE.
Jerome also withdrew the motion
made before Judge O'Sullivan I'm the
general sessions court by one of his
stan earlier in the day for a special
panel of talesman from which tn se-
lect jury for the Thaw case. The
motion has been opposed by counsel
for Thaw on the ground that the
talesman drawn on n special panel
would be too well versed in newspa-
per accounts of the Thaw case to
make unbiased jurors.

WEST VIRGINIA
SECOND IN COAL
SAYS REPORT

Washington. Nov. 22.-The total
production Of coal during 1905 i'm
illinois was 'SS,43A3G3 short tons
with a spot value Of S4O,577592, ac-
cording to a report made to the geol4
pgical survey By u. W. Parker Of the
United States Geological survey.
Illinois still ranks next to Pennsyl-
yania, in the production OF coal. The
production In West Virginia in 1906
was 37,791,5SO short tons. The re-
port says the expectation is that the
returns for 1906 will show West Vir-
ginia to be the second coal producing
state in the Union, from the fact that
the Illinois miners suffered from a
ahort shut down last spring, while
hose of West Virginia for the great
part were kept going continually.
The Illinois coal mines in 1905
gave employment to 58.O53 men who
worked an average Of 2O1 days. The
records show that t5.2S0 men were
ON strike during the year and lost an
average Of 21 days each The larg-
or number OF mines in Illinois work
their men eight hours a day. During
the fiscal year 1906 there we're 1919
fatalities IN the Illinois mines and
085 men were injured Premature
blasts or windy shots are the princl-
pal causes Of the fatal accidents.
