miners remained on strike, although coal operators of West Virginia where A union mines were report ed in operation yesterday, and Colo rado reported increased production. Miners leaders denied the West Vir- ginia operators claims and said on- ly a few mines were working on the open shop basis. Nearly normal production continued in the non union fields of West Virginia and Pennsylvania, and in union mines of Utah and some parts of New Mexico, as well as in Western Kentucky, where the miners did not participate in the strike because of contracts.
 Two thousand Ignite miners in North Dakota refused to strike in the morning. No further reduction in train service, as begun yesterday in the middle west under authoriza- tion of the railroad administration where necessary, took place today, but in railroad circles it was con sidered likely that further suspen- sions would be ordered next week unless there was a rift in the strike cloud.
 In most of the states that produce large quantities of bituminous coal the miners stood firm today.

Plans LOng-FGrmed.

Washington, Nov. 7.-Plans for the raid tonight on headquarters of radical organzations throughout the country, with arrest of many of the leaders, have been in process of for mutation for several weeks, 1t was understood here.
 While officials of the department of justice who could be reached to- night refused to discuss the raids, saying that all statements must come from William J. Flynn, head of the departments division of investiga- tion, it was learned that activities of the radicals had been watched closely for a number of weeks, with view to throwing out the governments drag net at an opportune moment.
 There was no attempt by officials to conduct the recent radical activi- ties with the coal and steel strikes, except in so much as strikes are con- sidered to offer the radical leaders a field for agitation.
 Attorney General Palmer has at numerous times, and particularly m testimony before congressional com- urging that his department be given full power to deal with radical movements, pointed to the danger certain to result from activity by the radicals.
 Numerous bills which would deal drastically with followers of Lenine and Trotzky in the United States are now pending in congress.
 New York, Nov. "A mass meet ing of radicals advertised for Rut- gers Square tomorrow night to cele- brate the second anniversary of the soviet government in Russia has been abandoned, it was announced to- night by Harry M. Winitsky, exe- cutive secretary of the communist party local of greater New York"
 Plans of the authorities to break up the meeting which, he declare1, would result in "the killing of men, women and children" caused the communist party to call off the demonstration, and avoid useless sacrifice of the lives of the workers. v

Deputy United States Marshal Isaac Evans was shot about 9:30 o'clock thi : morning by William Dempsey, alias Cummings, the shooting occurring in the narrow alleyway between the liar riman National Bank building and the doputy's office, at the rear of the bank building.
 Only one shot from Dempsey's gun took effect and this went through Evans right side, half way down, ranged downwards and out at the back about two inches from the spine. The bullet is believed to have pierced the ,igit de of the right lung.
 4 revolver duel took place between Evans and Dempsey but the shots ex- changed were not effective. ".,,'
 Dempsey escaped around the bank building, sped down Adams street and out the railroad.
 Evans staggered to the stairway in the rear of the bank building and then sank unconscious upon the steps where he was found by jailer Kingsley who with others carried the injured man :o the office of Dr. Romig, in the railroad building. There an examination was made and Mir. Evans was then taken to his own apartments in the bank building where this afternoon he was resting easily.
 Between 25 and 35 men, all armed are now hunting for Dempsey at the head of Resurrection Bay. The men in the various posses are old timers, dead shots and accustomed to hunts. Demp' sey has cle automatic, taken from n. c. Brownell in hold-up near Porcu- pine city, and several bullets remain ing in his own automatic. Knowing the seriousness of his crime and not know ing whether his victim was killed, Dempsey will undoubtedly put up a fight before taken alive.
 WHO IS DEMPSEY.
 William Dempsey, alias Cummings, is wanted at Anchorage, in connection with the disappearance of a woman at that city. He came to Seward on Saturday. Deputy Marshal Evans re- ceived instructions from the Anchor ape office to arrest him and it was during the performance of his duty that the shooting occurred. Dempsey worked at Anchorage then for sew eral days at Mile 40 and other places along the railroad. This morning he was into the railroad building to have time keeper Fred Knowlton cash his check but said he would. have it cash ed later and left the building.

 EVANS PART IN TRAGEDY

EVANS PART IN TRAGEDY
 Although it cannot be ascertained, owing to Mir. Evans not being allow ed to see anyone, being kept quiet un- til the crisis is passed, it is believed that he found Dempsey on the street and.took him to his office. It was when Evans was taking Dempsey from the office, ts the jail in the basement of the bank building, that the shooting took place. Going into the office Dempsey dropped package, contain ing clothes, in the alleyway. White being taken to the jail, Dempsey stopped down as if to pick up the package and it was then he reached and drew his automatic and fired his first shot.
 Evans evidently witnessed this movement for it was then that he sprand around the corner of the office bui'ding, but not quick enough as D"mpsey's shot had struck him. as stated above.
 Isacc Evans is one of the best known officers in Alaska and for years has been stationed in Seward. The trAgedy has resulted in determ- ined set of men of all classes now be- ing the woods in search of Dempsey Mrs. Evans is bearing up splendidly under the ordeal.

the only one in possession of the facts. This morning MT. Evans was into the office of A. H. Mcdonald, agent of the Alaska Steamship Co.,, and left de- tailed description of Dempsey, as MT. Evans stated the man was wanted and might purchase ticket out on the Northwestern under the name of Cum mings.
 The next detail in the tragedy was the exchange of shots in the alleyway at the rear of the Hartman National Bank Building. Robert J. Weir, en- gineer-in-charge of the Seward Div ision of the Commission, is perhaps the only one who witnessed the shoot ing and subsequent incidents during the next several minutes. MT. Weir was in his office in the railroad build ing, directly across from where the shooting took place.
 Mir. Weir stated he heard a shot and immediately went to his window. NIT. Evans had drawn his gun and was around the corner of his office build- ing. In the alleyway was Dempsey crouched down. ready for a second shot at Evans. Dempsey slunk down to the street, shooting in the direction of Evans, and Evans was backing to- wards the north side of the office building trying to get bead on Dempsey. Evans reached the north side of the office building and Demr- sey reached the street. Both men were shooting. Dempsey backed towards Adams street down Fifth avenue, and Evans was shooting at him from be- hind, and while to the north of the of flee building. Dempsey reached Adams street, then ran down towards the de- pot.
 Evans staggered into the street and into the rear stairway of the Bank building i:tending perhaps to go up- stairs to his living apartments. The shots had attracted the attention "f many and they were quickly on the streets.
 Mir. Weir left the window of his of flee for only a minute in search Of a run, but finding none, returned just as Dempsey was speeding around the bank building and down Adams street.
 Dempsey's first shot took effect but the other three did not, the empty cartridges being found at the entrance of the alleyway.
 POSSES ARE ORGANIZED
 The shots attracted hundreds to the scene of the shooting. Automobiles were on the scene and men with load ed guns piled in and were taken out the boulevard to head off Dempsey if he started north from the city. Frank Cotter, Chief of Police Guest and Gus Borgen in the first automobile driven by William Ellis. The automobile sped out to Mile 6 then returned to the Resurrection river where Guest ard Cotter remained. Other automobiles had also taken out searchers.
 Mayor Chamberiin suggested the orgar:zing of posses to work on a de- termined principle and the fire bell was sounded. a meeting being held in the Town hall by those who gathered.
