CRITICAL SITUATION
Has Develops in the Mining District OF
Colorado.

Trinidad, Col, Aug. 2l.-Final efforts
were made yesterday by Frank j.
Hayes, president and general organ
izer of the United Mine Workers OF
America, and representative business
men of Trinidad, and Edwin Brake,
state labor commissioner, to secure a
conference between Hayes and repre-
sentatives of the operators of coal mines
in district No. Is. The question at issue
is the miners demand for recognition of
their union.
John McLennan, president of the state
federation and member of the United
Mine Workers, said that the miners in
nearby camps are being restrained with
difficulty, and that the crisis in the sit
uation is at hand. The eoroner's jury
verdict after the inquest into the death
of Gerald Lippitt, the miner who was
shot and killed by mine guards Satur-
day night, that the shooting was justif-
able, has inhamed the minds of more
radical miners.

AT SEA ON
CURRENCY
Senator Ovens Change of
Mind Leaves Situation
in the Air
MAY PREVENT
IMMEDIATE ACTION
Some Kind of Temporary
Measure May Be
Passed

| Washington, Aug 2l.--The situation
in the Senate yesterday with respect to
banking and currency legislation is
completely up in the air, as the result of
developments in the conference of bank
ing and currency committee Democrats
Tuesday afternoon. Opinion is widely
divided whether there will be any cur
rency legislation this session. The be-
lief is strongly held by prominent SEN
ators on each side that if there is any
legislation it will be of an emergency
sort.
Senator Owens announcement to the
conference yesterday that he was OPP
posed to compelling the national banks
to put up the capital for the regional
reserve banks and that he favored the
government or the public supplying this
capital has Disconnected the senators
who have been willing to follow where
ever the administration led with respect
to currency BILL
Senator Ovens position has strong
support. In fact, some senators think
the bill would stand a much better
chance of passing the Senate if modified
as Senator Owen suggests.
Senator Cummins Of Iowa, one of the
foremost of the Progressive Republicans,
said the proposed change made a good
bill out of the currency measure and
he would support it.
However, many of the Democratic
senators are so strongly against com
prehensive currency legislation at this
time that it looks now as if nothing
like general revision of the currency
laws can be forced this session. 1t will
take until Oct. l to pass the tariff The
currency debate probably could not be-
gin until late in the month, and it is
uetsion whether a general bill could be
forced through by the time for opening
the regular session.
The Lea emergency currency bill has
support and may prove the
way out of the difficulty Further con-
ferences of banking and currency Demo
Gratis will be held daily and the Repub-
Leans on the committee will soon be in
vited in.
A movement is on to have open SEES
sions of the banking and currency com
mittee and open eaucuses on the cur
rency bill. Senator Hollins is one of
hose leading this movement, and there
$ considerable prospect that it will sue
'eed.
The White House to-day was sur
orised at the reports that Senator Owen
lad refused TO accede to the administra- |
ion currency bill in its entirety and had
'ebelled against the regional reserve
feature.

Daring Bandits Get a Big
Haul at Portland,
Ore.
THEY SET A
DANGER SIGNAL
Rob Passengers in Berths-
Shoot One Man
Down

Portland, Ore, Aug. 2l.-Four or five
masked robbers held up the 500
Spokane fast passenger train on the
Oregon Washington Railroad & Naviga-
ton Line as it was passing under the
East Twelfth street bridge here early
yesterday.
The robbers went through the coaches,
forcing the passengers to give up their
valuables and firing more than score
of shots to intimidate the trainmen.
According to information received by
the police the robbers halted the train
by fixing danger signal on the track
as the train moved slowly under the
bridge As the train stopped a volley OF
shots rang out on either side and the
robbers were heard to order the engi-
neer and fremen to get out of the cab
With drawn revolvers members OF the
hold-up gang went through the sleeping
cars, ordering passengers out OF their
berths and compelling them to hand
over their money and valuables.
AS one of the robbers was passing
from car to ear a tramp, who had been
riding on top of one of the sleepers,
dropped to the platform from his hiding
place and the robber, installing him for
member Of the train crew, opened fire,
probably fatally wounding the man.
Within few minutes after the train
was stopped a report of the hold-up was
received at police headquarters and
party of detectives and uniformed men
hurried to the scene in automobiles.
As virtually all the passengers on the
train were in their berths and were
caught without warning no resistance
was offered. Complete descriptions of
the bandits were obtained, however, and
arrests are expected.
A reward of $4,000 was offered yes
terday for the capture of the ROBBERS.
