President Gives Personal Attention and May Use
 His New Authority.
ALABAMA MINERS
 READY TO QUIT
Strike Would Seriously Cripple Iron and SteeI Industry of State. Missouri Attorney General
 Threatens Action.

Washington, Aug. 7.-Government control of the coal industry appeared imminent today, when the president turned his attention to the subject and heard the mine operators and the miners presentation of the situation,
 The interests of the public now will be presented by the federal trade commission, which has just completed its investigation of coal production cost.
 Provisions of the food control bill giving the president power to fix the cost of coal and to requisition all coal produced are expected to be put into operation almost immediately.
 The trade commissions report will say that at present coal operators. iobbers and retailers are reaping ex- orhitant profits and that inequitable distribution is adding to the cost in many parts of the country.

TROOPS MAY BC ORDERED
 AGAINST I.W.W.
National Authorities Ready to Take Steps to Prevent
 Real Trouble.
.@EkzS2VzaExsMl9k.

Washington, Aug 17.-Government agencies were placing themselves in readiness today to meet any situation which may develop on the Pacific coast as the result of the threatened strike of the I. w. w. in Washington. Oregon, Montana and Idaho.
 Extreme measures. even to the dis patch of federal tropos if necessary, it is said, will be taken. Troops will be sent only in case of serious disorders which local officers may not be able to meet.
 Officials are united in the opinion that there must be no cessation of ac- tivities in such industries as are es- sential to the prosecution of the war. The officials are prepared to take all steps necessary.
 There is little change in the situa- tion today and officials here, while not minimizing the matter, are hopeful it will not assume such magnitude as to make extreme corrective measures ne- cessary.

PLAN ID STUDY
 PEACE PROPOSAL
 BEFORE REPLYING
President and Cabinet Will Take Time, to Get Full
 Knowledge.

Washington, Aug. 17-That the gov ernment is determined to give Pope Benedict's peace proposal the most de- liberate and painstaking consideration before framing reply was evinced again today by developments at the white house and the state department.
 The cabinet avoided any general discussion of the subject because President Wilson is understood to feel there must be a searching analysis of the questions raised before such discussion would be profitable.
 Secretary Lansing and his advisers, on whom most of the responsibilities for making this analysis will rest, concluded their study of the pontiff's suggestion with every indication that it will be several days before any con- crete steps may be expected.

COTTON PLANTERS
 GET RESTRAINING ORDER FROM COURT
Judge Elliott Enjoins Au- thorities from Enforcing
 Part of Law. *

Judge John M. Elliott, in the chan cery court yesterday, issued an order directing that upon the filing of a bond in the amount of ,000 by the plaintiffs,a writ of temporary injunc- ton and restraining order should is- sue against State Commissioner of Agriculture John H. Page and Prose- cutting Attorney T. G. Parham of this judicial circuit the action thus up- holding, pending further action by the court, the contention of Jefferson county cotton planters that the re- gently enacted state cotton ginners' act does not apply to them as private ginners.
 The case, recognized as test of that portion of the law which applies to men who own and operate gins to gin their own cotton and the cotton of their laborers or tenants only, was filed about ten days ago, and the plaintiffs are Leo M. Andrews, Dent & McNeill, B. l.. Wiley, J. F. Quattle- baum, B. Talbot, William Nichol and T. H. Collier.
 Governor Frank O. Lowden of Illi- nois, and the Midway Planting com pany yesterday were granted the right of appearing as parties plaintiff to the cause, and their names were added as plaintiffs. Governor Lowden's planta+ tion interests at South Bend were in- volved in the test case, hence his de- sire to participate in the action. The require dbond was provided by Leo M. Andrews and Captain William Nichol, and the temporary injunction and restraining order was issued by the court. No date was fixed for hear | ing to determine whether the injunc- ton shall be made permanent, but it is generally understood the state, through Commissioner Page and the office of the attorney general, will take the steps necessary to bring the case before the supreme court, for fi- nal ruling on the question.
 l There has been no contest made against the law so far as it concerns public ginners are required to be li- censed, to tag each bale ginned and to abstract two samples of the cotton in each bale. The commissioner of agri- culture has ruled that the term public 1 ginner covers all ginners who gin cot ton not absolutely their own property and including those big planters who gin the cotton grown by tenants and laborers on the 'crop" or share basis
 The planters have filed suit to test
 this section of the law only and thi,
 sectio nexclusivcly is involved in tn,
 case on which Judge Elliott acted yes ed yesterday.

Associated Press Summary.)

Associated Press Summary.)
 Their counter attacks having failed with severe losses, the Germans in the Ypres area of the western front have not resumed attempts to recap ture the ground lost to the British and French Thursday.
 On the northern wing of the Ypres front. the Fernch, after repulsing heavy German counter attacks, Fri day made further gains near the Steenbeke river.
 Elsewhere on this front the latest reports from Field Marshal Haig says there has been no change.
 In addition to their capture of more than 1900 prisoners, the allies cap tured "A guns from the Teutons.
 While admitting an allied gain along the Yser canal, and near Blk schoote, where the French advanced, Berlin claims that most of the Brit ish attacks were repulsed and that Langmarck is still in German hands This claim of the German general staff is officially denied in London, which says that the British hold not only Langmarck but also ground be- yond the village.
 London also officially denied that the fighting front was 20 miles long, 1 as Berlin declares. Field Marshal Haig on Thursday reported the fight ing front in the Ypres area as being nine miles in length.
 The German general staff reports Thursdays fighting as full vic- tory for the Teutons, although ad' hitting some reverses and claiming no gains.
 Between Loos and Lens, the Cana dians are plugging away toward the capture of the last named place. They have consolidated and. made secure their recent gains and have made fur ther progress west of Lens. The number of prisoners taken here now total 1900.
 The German crown prince is not yet Sure that the French positions along the Aisne front are invulnerable and his latest attack here has failed, as did all previous ones. One German effort was on the front of more than a mile in the region of the California plateau, and was stopped Ey French artillery, which also checked Ger man attack east of Cerny. The crown prince took the initiative also on the right bank of the Mouse.
 The German offensive in Moldavia is slowing down before the stubborn resistance. Of the Russo-Ru- manians, who are fighting desperately in the area of Fokshani and the Sc reth river. and Field Marshal vor Mackensen has made no further pro eress. Petrograd reports the re pulse of several attacks in this area
