 plaint.

fusal, and issuance of more drastic orders directing heads of the miners organization to resume operations, would mean, these officials said, a long drawn out struggle.
 Government officials took another look at stock reports, and while these indicated coal enough to meet imme- diate needs;/ the fact stared them in the face that the daily consumption was around ten millions tons, while the daily output had been reduced by the strike to about three and half million tons. It was easy to figure, they said how long present stocks would last, assuming the bins were filled for an average run of 30 days.
 A full report of the strike situation will be presented to the cabinet at it's meeting tomorrow. While it has been announced that the cabinet stood solidly together in formulating the governments strike policy, it has been common talk in labor and off cial circles that Secretary Wilson, a former officer of the United States Mine Workers of America. strongly opposed injunction proceedings.

He feared his life was in danger at all times, although there were no open threats, since he was in the power of men wholly undisciplined who engaged in drinking bouts and fights at all times. The "rebels" fearing at tempts at rescue, kept constantly on the move. Jenkins finally was al- lower to write to his wife and the letters were taken to Puebla by secret emissaries of the "rebels."

New Restrictions for Use of Soft
 Coal Announced

Chicago, Nov. 6.-New restrictions of the use of soft coal were an- nounced today, the sixth day of the miners strike In some localities orders were even more drastice than during the war, but the general sit uation showed little change.
 While production in West Virgin ia and Colorado was reported in- creased since yesterday, there was no noticeable change in the ranks of the 425,000 striking miners.
 Appeals for coal to prevent distress in many towns of Kansas and Ala bama were sent to state and railroad officials.
 The committee also authorized re- gional directors of railroads to sus- pend such train service as might be regarded as unnecessary, but let it be known that no general curta!i- ment was planned.
 Sixty-six trains were annulled by the Chicago and Northwestern and the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul railroads.
 Indana's public service commission took the most drastic action in the domestic field. It decreed lightless streets, discontinuance of electric sign service, coal gas for heating and other advisable restrictions of service by public utilities with less than two weeks supply of coal.
 Small cities and towns of Kansas reported nearly empty coal bins with the prospect of closing light and water plants. A nearly similar sit uation prevailed in Nebraska, where some schools were on the point of closing.
 Some Oklahoma localities also were reported appealing for coal.
 West Virginia operators reported A mines in union districts in opera tion, at the rate of 60,000,000 tons a year or about two-thirds normal. A slight increase in production also was reported by Colorado operators while those in New Mexico said only half the miners were on strike.
