Headquarters Inactive.

Indianapolis, Ind, Nov. From
tho scene of the most activity in con-
nection with the strike Of approx
mately 100000 bituminous coal
miners, headquarters of the United
Mine Workers Of America here has
been transformed in the last twenty
four hours to perhaps the most
lethargic.
The lack Of activity, however, is not
due to disinterest in the strike, but is
the result of the sweeping provision Of
the restraining order issued yesterday
by United States District Judge A. b.
Anderson, compelling the miners Off
cials to refrain from taking any part
in conducting or encouraging the
strike of the miners, which, accord
ing to dispatches, has been carried out
almost to a man among the union
soft coal workers Of the country.
Miners leaders at headquarters thus
far, apparently have obeyed the re-
straining order to the letter. They
not only decline to give out statements
and reports concerning the strike but
will not discuss their plans for COM
batting the action of the government
in the courts, and unless the restrain
ing, order is violated by some Of those
against whom it is directed, miners

Should reports that any consider

tinue work, the government was pre-
pared to furnish them protection.
