FINISHING TOUCHES
ON STRIKE PROBES
to Appear Before 4
Committee.

[United Press Leased Wire Service.l
WASHINGTON, March 20.-Plans
for the finishing touches on the Colo.
rado and Calumet stribs probes were
considered by the house mines COM
mittee today. Before the probers was
a gigantic pile OF testimony taken in
the strike ridden districts and sur
mounting the heap was the mute wit
ness of industrial warfare-a string
OF cartridges used in the mine guards
machine rifles John D. Rockefeller,
guiding spirit Of ths Colorado Fuei
and Iron company, was expected to
take much of the committees deliber'
ations. The decree went forth Satur-
day night that he must testify as to
his part in what tbs committee re-
CARDS as deplorable warfare. Since
then there has been some sentiment
in favor Of probing the company's 8
books without attempting the prob
ably arduous task of getting the oil
king to Washington.
The date for the hearing OF John
Mitchell, mine labor leader, was an
other subject for discussion.
