BAKER REPUDIATES AGREEMENT FIXING
 SOFT COAL PRICE
FRepuhlioan. A. p. Leased wirel

IRepuhlican. A. p. Leased WireJ
 WASHINGTON, June 3O.-Secretary Baker, as president of the Council of National Defense. repudiated tonight an agreement fixing a tentative price of $3 ton for bituminous coal. reached at a conference here Thursday between
 coal producers. Secretary Lane, a memberof the defense council, mem bers of the councils coal production committee and the federal trade com mission.
 Neither the council nor it's commit
 tees, Secretary Baker said, in letter to w. s. Clifford, of the council, has
 power to fix prices. He added that
 the price of $3 at the mines suggested for bituminous coal is ''eXorbitant, un- just and oppressive"
 Secretary Daniels, another member
 of the council, earlier in the day
 said the agreement would in no way affect coal purchases for the navy. The navy, he said. will continue to buy from the mines at $233 a ton, leaving price to be determined after the fed eral trade commission has ascertained production costs.
 In his letter to MT. Clifford Mir Baker asserted that he believed no
 member of the defense council dis
 agrees with him as to the limitations on the powers of the council and it's committees and as to the effect of the action taken The fact that the con- ferences were attended by members of the council and of the trade commis- sion, he declared gave no legality to the agreement
 The price fixing agreement was reached after 400 operators called here by the coal production committee had adopted resolutions authorizing their committees to give assent to such max | imum btuminous prices as might be named by the secretary of the in l terior, the federal trade commission and the coal committee.
 The resolution was reported by Trade l Commissioner Fort from a special | committee. In presenting it for adop- | tion Mir. Fort declared he believed it was entirely safe for the conference l to adopt, and that any responsibility as to the legality of fixing prices was put on the government and not on the operators under the terms of the reso- | lution. Some operators had expressed
 a fear that they might be prosecuted | under the antitrust laws if they en- | tered into an agreement among them
 selves to lower prices.
 | An official announcement made 1 through the public information com | mittee' said that in the final confer ence cost prices and other confidential | information was laid on the table and the government representatives acting (Continued on Page Two)

WASHINGTON, June 30.-Twenty three states will be bone dry after mid night tonight, the effective hour of the Reed amendment prohibiting shipment of liquor into any territory where it's manufacture or sale is prohibited Eleven other states are partly affected by the legislation.
 The law bars from prohibition areas. whether states or smaller corporations, all mail matter containing advertise ments or solicitations for orders for in toXicants, provision designed to aid in enforcing the anti-shipment feature by suppressing the activities of mail order houses in dry territory.
 Justice and postoffice department of ficials have made extensive prepara- tions for enforcement of the statues. Ethyl Alcohol is regarded by the fed eral government as an intoxicating li- quor within the meaning of the act but methyl, wood. and denatured alcohols are not so regarded. No ruling has been made regarding the status of patent medicines containing alcohol and that question may be among the first to be passed on by the courts.
 The language of the anti-Shipment section = comprehensive imposing a fine of S1,000 and imprisonment for six months, or both, on any person who shall "order, purchase or cause intoX- icating liquors to be transported in in- terstate commerce except for scientific. sacramental. medicinal or mechanical purposes into any state or territory the laws of which state or territory pro- hibit the manufacture or sale therein of intoxicating liquors for beverage pur- poseS.'
 The same penalties are prescribed for violators of the anti-advertising sec tion For a second offense in either case, the penalty is made one year S imprisonment
 The postoffice department, in pro- mitigating the order for enforcement of the anti advertising section names the following states as wholly affected by the act:

STRIKE EFFORTS
 FAIL IN DOUGLAS
Republican A. p. Leased wirel

Republican A. p. Leased WireJ
 DOUGLAS, June 30.-The first attempt of the strikers in Bisbee to organize sympathetic strike in the two smelters here failed today. Eight organizers came here, spent the afternoon, and then became discouraged, appar- ently, as they did not attempt to hold meeting, which had been advertised for the night, but they returned to Bisbee.
 Their departure was due in large measure to a proclamation issued in English and Spanish by w. M. Adamson, mayor of Douglas, in which he declared the operation of mines and smelters to be a national necessity and ef- forts to prevent peaceful opera tions an act of treason.

 MILWAUKEE, June 30.-Eieven per sons met death and at least ten others were injured, some seriously late to- day, the result of fifty ton water tank erected on the Milwaukee river front falling down on the Whaleback steamer fall down on the Whaleback steamer Christopher Columbus. as that vessel was being swung around preparatory to making her return trip with about 400 passengers from Chicago.
 The steamer was in tow of two tugs when she rammed the East Water street dock with such force aus to cause the steel supports which held the fifty ton water tank to give way resulting in the reservoir crashing down, hitting the vessel near the bridge and not stopping until it had ripped through two decks.
 Captain MOouy, who was on the bridge at the time of the accident gave it as his opinion that the tugs seemed unable to hold the boat and that hac there been a lee way of but six inches the accident would not have happened
 Identified dead:
 Cecil Neil, 19, Billings, Okla.
 Eva Eatman, A, Chicago.
 Blanche Boopper, Chicago.
 Robert Downs, Chicago.
 William Steinberg, Z6, Milwaukee.
 One unidentified woman, whose body lies at the morgue wore a signet ring with the initials B. M. C." Another woman victim wore a ring with the name Alta" engraved.
 Fannie Jones, a student at a unlVer- sitv in Chicago who was on her way to her home in Coleman, Texas was taken to the hospital suffering from broken legs and internal injuries.
 ,r,u+aip Moody who was the bridge at the time of the accident, nar- Jowlv escaped death.
 The current was too strong for the tugs" said Captain Moody. Six inch = es more of leeway would have saved the vessel. The impact with the dock tore away the underpinning holding the tank. The Christopher Columbus will be out of commission the rest of the season as it will require three months to repair the damage
 The crush of the water tank tore through the bridge, pilot house, two decks, and slid into the river when it struck the steel main deck.
 Beyond saying that James Brody was at the wheel at the time of the accident and that the ship failed, ap- parently, to respond promptly enough to his efforts, the officers of the boat were unable to explain the accident. An unconfirmed report was to the eff feet that one of tue tugs guiding the big vessel had it's hawser cast off too soon.
 The first ones to notice the plight of the passengers were employees of a provision company. They put out in a steam launch and picked up three bodies and three persons who had been knocked unconscious.
 An emergency call was sent to the police department and to every hos pital in the city to rush ambulances.
 Fire Chief Clancy and Chief of Police Janssen ordered every available man

HEAVY FIGHTING |s NOW GOING IN
 IN VERDUN SECTOR
TRepublican A. P. Leased Wirel

All of the troops attached to the American eXpeditionary force have reached France in safety. The trans fer, one of the largest ever undertaken by the United States army, was made without the loss or injury of a single American soldier and without any cases of serious illness. Dispatches filed during the week, released by the censor today, say that the trip was made on schedule time and that the American fighters are in splendid trim.
 The scene of heaviest fighting on the western front is now the Verdun sec tor. Over the same ground with which they met with such a serious check at the hands of the French last i year, the Germans are making serious 1 assaults with picked forces. For the most part their efforts have been nulli- fled by the French, but the Germans succeeded in retaining some conquered ground on the west slope of Deadman's hill.
 On the Aisne front also the Germans are on the offensive. They attacked last night near Cerny and Corb, meet ing with a devastating French fire , which all but annihilated their storm ing attachments. Northeast of Cerny they succeeded in gaining a salient which had been leveled by artillery fire.
 Whether these operations marked the resumption of a sustained offensive by the Germans is not clear The off cial German statement throws no light ! on this subject merely mentioning the capture of 300 meters of trench line east of Hill 304 and of several French lines south of La Boville farm on the Aisne front There are indications of a return of active operations on the Rus 1 sian front. The German war office re- ports that the Russians apparently in- 1 fluenced by pressure eXerted by their i allies, are maintaining a strong fire
 over the front of 40 miles in eastern ! Galicia and that Russian attack evil 1 dently is imminent
 i Agnello Pass, which the Italians cap- tured recently in their advance on the i front below Trent, has been evacu- i ated. Rome announces that the Italian advanced forces have been withdrawn i on account of the prolonged and vio- ] lent bombardment of the Austrians, but i that the Italians still hol4 the eastern | end of the pass.

 GLOBE, June 30.-Responding to the absolute refusal of the three big Miami district to consider their de- mands, the Globe and Miami branches of the Metal Mine Work ors Industrial Union tonight issued an order to all members of this or eanization to quit work at o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
 The Metal Mine Workers claim a larger membershio in the district than the older organization, the International Union Of Kline, Mill and Shelter " orkers of America.
 Representatives of the metal mine workers asserted tonight that the strike call issued will affect all Industrial Workers of the World employed in allied crafts about the mines in addition to several thou sand miners.
 Each member is being officially notified of the result of the strike vote as he comes off shift at il o'clock tonight.
 The demands of the Metal Mine Workers are identical to the de- mand which have been made in Bisbee and Butte and are far more drastic than the demands of the International Union of Mine, Mill and Shelter Workers which were also rejected by the companies. Following is the strike order issue, by the Metal Mine Workers upon whicl is stamped the official seal of the In dustrial Workers of the World, whic is claimed to be one of the reason why their demands were not accorde the slightest consideration by the man agers of the three big operating com panies:
 "Miami, Ariz., June 30, 1911 Strike notice:

 "A general strike of the mining ters in the Globe and Miami district. around the mines, mills and smell industry has been called in this district by the Metal Mine Workers Industrial Union No. 800. All mem bers take due notice of same and see that work ceases in this in- dustry.
