WASHINGTON. Dec. S.-President
Wilson departed from the prepared
text of his annual address to con-
sress, which das devoted principally
to answering those fho contend that
the United States is unprepared for
national defense, to give notice to
the business world that the legisla-
tive programme OF his admin'stra-
tion, as it affects regulation of bust-
ness. was practically completed. He
said II had resulted in a clear road
for business to travel to ''unclouded
success.
Honest business men, the presi-
dent declared, need have nothing to
fear in ,reading the wa outlined in
the trust and currency bills. While
the president dwelt briefly upon the
subject, his words were interpreted
as an assurance that no further i'm
portant business legislation was con-
Itemplated.
The presidents remarks in fun
with relation to business legislation
were as follows:
"Our program of legislation with
regard to the regulation of business
| is now virtually complete 1t has been
Eput forth. as we intended. as whole
and leaves no conjecture as to what
| is to follow. The road at last lies
clear and firm before business. 1t is
a road which you can travel without
fear or embarrassment. 1t is the road
to ungrudged. uncloudcd success. 1n
it every honest man. every man who
believes that the public interest Is
/ part of his own interest, may walk
with perfect confidence"

statement of J. f. Welborn, president
of the Colorado Fuel 4 &Iron Com

trial relations commission investi-
CATION of the coal miners strike.
Mr.. Welborn, who previously had
protested against revealing the name
of the author of the pamphlet issued
by the Colorado Fuel 4 Iron Com
pany, read a telegram from Lee. re-
leasing the company from its pledge
to keep his identity secret. The
telegram gave the information that
Lee had been employed by John ID.
Rockefeller. Jr. In his telegram Lee
briefly outlined that Mr.. Rockefeller
Jr., had been impressed with what
he alleged was inaccurate informa-
tion, of the inaccuracies of published
statements concerning, the strike
and had asked him to prepare a
statement of the facts. He deplored
the undue mystery that had been
made of his identity. Mr.. Rockefei
Ter had had nothing to do with the
preparation of the matter used. Mr..
Lee congratulated Mr.. Welborn on
what he said were the few inaccur-
acies in minor details that had been
shown by the federal commission on
industrial relations at its hearing.
II do not believe that the Penn
sylvania railroad had anything to do
with the employment Of Mr.. Lee"
said Mr.. sWelborn, concluding the
reading of the telegram.

BRITISH STEAMER
GROUNDS, CARGO
BURNED, CREW SAFE

Barrow. Dec. 7.-tvia London,
Dec. s, 1l:1o a. m.)-The British
steamer Vedra from Port Arthur,
Texas, with u cargo of gasoline, went
ashore near here this morning in a
heavy gale
The cargo ignited and of the crew
of SO men on board the Vedra only
two were saved and they We're Sc
verely burned.
The conflagration was caused by
the gasoline escaping into the engine
room where it became ignited. The
surface of the sea was covered with
burning oil and the escape of the
men was cut off. Two lifeboats
reached the scene but the flaming
oil on the surface of the water made
it impossible for them to approach.
Several members of the crew
jumped overheard but they either
were drownked or burned to death.
Only two men out of the ships COM
pany managed to escape alive. They
were picked up by the lifeboats and
are now in hospital. The Vedra
is complete loss.

HOLDS CHARGES
MADE AGAINST
GERM Err ARE
TRUE
International Men Say
Illinois Committee
Whitewashed
Case

The charges preferred against
Adolph Germer, organizer Of the
United Mine Workers by the 1llinoi
S union were found to be largely true.
Germer was accused Of a misus
e of union funds and Of acts of per.
sonal impropriety.
A committee representing the !
illinois organization, of which Mr.. G
ermer is vice president, reviewed the
charges and gave him a bill of heal
tn, but officials of the international
union declare that the case was VIII
itewashed by the friends Of Germer
and insist that the charges and the
evidence be further investigated.
P. E. Quinn of Springfield, an i
International organizer, and who was
formerly in charge Of the Ludlow ten
t colony in this district, says: "The
Illinois miners union is irving to W
|hitewash Germer." He asks that the
Illinois miners withhold judgment u
ntil the committee selected by the in
ternational organization makes its
report.
The following is taken from the
Springfield. ILL.,. State Register:
According to kilograms received
by the state officials of the United
Mine Workers of America from r..
j. Wilson Of Indianapolis, chairman
Iof the committee appointed by the
Intern ational executive board to In
Ivestigate chsrses Of misuse OF funds
belonging to the orgenixation4 and
improper conduct by Ad6Iph Corner,
candidate for president of the I'LL
nois district. the charges were found
to be true in part.
The report in full was made to
John p. White. president Of the ma
tional body, and copies will be mail
ed to all the miners of Illinois i'm
mediately. Germer was exonerated
by committee of the Illinois organ
ization which consisted of Duncan
Mcdonald of this city, and P.
Franckey Of Green Valley. which
announced its result last Thursday.
The circular which caused all the
row in the miners ranks was sent
out November 4. and charged that
Gerner has used funds OF the oreani-
zation for his personal business, and
had been guilty of improper conduct
at WalsanbUrg, Colo, where he was
sent as an organizer.

London, Dec. S.-While the allied
armies in the west grope their way
forward cautiously. graphing with
the Germans here and there for
slight advantages. the great strug-
gle in Poland continues with the Ger
mans for the time being apparently
scoring the most points.
Russia has not yet fully conceded
the occupation of LODI, but in view
of the repeated German claims and
the Russian admission Of the reform
alton Of her battle line there, it
would seem that the Germans have
achieved the goal. upsetting what for
a time was hailed as a decisive Rus
sian victory. The capture of Lodz,
if indeed accomplished, will threat

great arterial railway which runs di-
agonally across Poland, from Czen-
