Topeka, Kan, March 13-In the coal

are much aroused over the "bone-dry''
law. Many Of them declare. NO beer. no
work" All OF the men at one big mine
struck as a protest against the law. 1t is
understood that a deputation OF miners is
coming to Topeka to demand that the
State officials wink at the enforcement of
the new law as the price of keeping the
coal mines open.
In the mining district the "bone-dry''
bill has occasioned all manner of concern.
Nearly every mining camp is inhabited
by foreigners or men OF for

made beer a part of their daily diet Now

ARMED NEUTRALITY

Companies Refuse to Insure Passenger.
Sailing on Ships With Guns.

(By the International News Service.)
New York. March 13.-Armed neutrality
is q state of war-at least in the eyes of
tho large and responsible life insurance
companies of America.
Inquiry at the offices of several large
insurance companies in New York today
revealed that none of the companies is
willing to issue life insurance policy, on
any terms, to any one contemplating
travel on an American armed vessel Of
ficials Of the companies said they would
regard such insurance as no insurance at
all but a gamble. And We are not
gamblers" one official added.
In fact SO great has become the war
risk that all insurance companies are in
cluding a war clause which invalidates
the policy II the holder goes into the war
zone and meets death within two years
after the issuance of the policy.
"At this time we would regard 1t as
unpatriotic and embarrassing to include
a war clause in all policies" an official
of one large company said, but you may
rest assured that it has been seriously
considered"
Even Lloyds' American agent refused
to deal in insurance with passengers on
armed vessels.

unanimously indorsed by the various gen.

chief executives to again renew their at
tempt to effect a peaceful settlement with
the conference committee at the meeting
to be held in New York Thursday. March
10.
"All lnsinuations to the effect that
transportation employees are not loyal cit
iZens because of their attempt at this
time to secure from their employees the
benefits contemplated by the law is
absurd, and assurance OF our willingness
and intention to support our country,
should war be declared, has been given
to the President Of the United States.
Surely the public must recognize that
for more than year we have made
every effort to secure a shorter work
day. and our membership realizes that
this question should be disposed of and
Industrial peace restored, before our coun-
try becomes involved in war, which now
seems probable.
Wilson to Act Promptly.
seemingly 1t has been the purpose OF
the railroad companies to postpone fixed
settlement of this question until either
panic or a war should defeat our de-
mands."
President Wilson will act promptly and
decisively 70 prevent any general tie-up
of the commerce of the country through
great railroad strike while the nation
is confronted with the dire possibilities
of the present international situation.
Convinced that both the railroads and
their employees will put aside their own
differences to Join in the defense of the
country. the President is prepared to
once more step into the railroad contro-
versy, II the strike threat once more
becomes acute.
Although confined to his room, the
President yesterday was in close touch
with the railroad situation. He conferred
at length with Secretary OF Labor Will
son, who has been watching the develop
ments in the railroad controversy closely,
and received a detailed report of the pres
ent situation. He will be kept advised as
to the progress of discussions between
