ID DEPORT RADICALS
 WOULD CAUSE THEIR
 DEATH APPEAL SAYS
rRepubIlcan A. p. Leased wirel

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-Deporta- tion of Emma Goldman and Alexander Berkman to white guard" Russia, would be equivalent to pronouncing death sentence upon them, Harry Weinberger, counsel for the two radi- calls, asserted in a brief filed today with the supreme court in a final ef- fort to prevent their removal from the United States.
 The highest court was asked to re- ceive an appeal from the action of Federal Judge Mayer in New York which dismissed an application for habeas corpus writs. Counsel both for the accused and the government were permitted to submit briefs.
 Weinberger in his brief admitted that his clients were anarchists, but contended there was insufficient evi- dence to warrant deportation and charged that the secretary of labor exceeded his jurisdiction and discretion in issuing deportation orders. Consti- tutionality of the statutes under which 1t was issued also was attacked and a this point counsel said that deporta- tion to the white guard" country would be equivalent to death sen. tence.
 In granting Weinberger permission to seek an appeal for error. Judg' Mayer gave him until D. no. folnor row to perfect his writ and it swa. believed the supreme cour fa,k, notice of this in reaching Icu

SEE NO NECESSITY TO REDUCE SILVER
 CONTENT OF COINS
lRepubIican A. p. Leased wlre1

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-Govern- ment officials here do not believe there is any necessity for immediate steps to reduce the silver content of the United States coins to make the in trinsic value coincide with the face value, in order to prevent silver specu- lators melting coins into bullion.
 Raymond T. Baker, director of the mint, said today the question which an Ottawa dispatch said was disturbing Canadian officials, has been the subject of lengthy discussions by American of ficials also but that as long as the present price of silver remained it was thought the margin of profit was too small to offer any great inducement.
 Furthermore. the treasury recently put twenty million dollars silver at the disposal of the federal reserve board for the purpose of stabilizing dollar exchange. Most of it probably will be shipped to China, Indian and Oriental countries to meet the abnormal de- mand there for the metal. The treas ury has available about fifty million dollars silver additional which it can use to hold the price of bullion within a reasonable figure should. it become necessary. tta

Mexican Minister of Finance Explains Situation to American Lawyer, Long a Resident of Tampico
rRepubIIcan A. p. Leased Wlre]

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10 - Further testimony taken by the Fall commit tee, investigating Mexican affairs and made public today, pictures the Car ranZa government as regarding all diplomatic protests of the American government as perfunctory and ac- credits to officials of the Mexican gov ernment a policy of driving Americans out of the country.
 The committee today made public in the testimony of w. F. Buckley, an American lawyer long resident in Tampico and one of the well known members of the American colony in Mexico.
 Luis Cabrera, (Mexican minister of finance) told me very frankly testi- fled Buckley, that the menace of the American in Mexico must be removed and that the only way to do this was to drive him out of the country and take his property"
 He explained to me-" the witness continued, that MT. Wilson was what | he was pleased to term an advanced liberal, a great democrat whose con- cern was for the welfare of the peo- pie of the world and was not limited to the narrow bounds of the United States.' "He said," continued Buckley, "Mr. Wilson was opposed to capital in Mexico, and everywhere else, no mat | ter to whom the capital belonged and that in expelling the Americans from Mexico, the constitutionalists would receive the sympathy of the American government"
 Buckley assailed the attitude of the oil companies in Mexico.
 Says Oil Situation Over Played
 "The Mexican situation has been made too much of an oil question" he told the committee, land has been con- fused too much with oil, and the oil companies have suffered and are en- titled to relief, but their suffering has been nothing as compared to that oi the American of smaller means
 The oil companies, he declared, had pursued a weak and vacillating policy "very similar to that of the American government in handling the genera Mexican situation
 "The oil company, able to fight, Buckley said, has not had the courage to do so and has fallen back on tn, one alternative-bribery. There is no one of the foreign oil companies doins business in Mexico, which has not iron one to two hundred Carrancistas ol it's payroll. In adopting this contem
 ptible policy, the companies have no only contributed to their present plight but they have failed to seize that lead ership in the fight for American right in Mexico to which they were urge, by circumstances and in so failing the. had done incalculable harm to tn r American of small means and to tn American people and Americal prestige"
 Buckley said he did not believe arme f intervention the only solution. H suggested the possibility of this gov
 ernment giving its unqualified suppor to some one representing the old ordel or, as an alternative, withdrawin :, recognition of the present governmer l and patiently waiting until a bette 2 government might be established.

Republican A. p. Leased wIre1

WASHINGTON. Dec. 1o.- Express sions by government officials of satis- faction and relief at the settlement of the nation wide strike of bituminous coal miners were coupled tonight with warnings to the American people that early relaxations of the drastic re- strictions on the consumption of coal must not be expected
 Fuel Administrator Garfield. on re- ceipt of word that the miners in In- dianapolis had agreed to accept Pres- ident Wilson's proposal, declared that immediate removal of regulations on soft coal consumption was not to be considered.
 Director General Hines in a formal statement asserted that dislocatior created by the strike could not be remedied instantly. The public, MT Hines said, will be expected to con- tinue conserving coal until norma conditions are restored, but just a. soon as practicable restrictions will be rescinded or modified.
 Coal Orders to Be Filed
 As a preliminary to bringing baci normal conditions" said the director general, ''coal mined will be allowed to run as billed except the tidewate and export embargo will continue; or ders placed for coal to western region from Pocahontas and Allegheny re gions will be cancelled, put coal bile, on these orders prior to the cancella ton will be permitted to go and be ex pedited so that those cars can b promptly released for mines."
 The railroad administration, Direc tor General Hines announced, woul i aid in meeting the needs of other con sumers by reducing it's supply to days margin. The administration ha been maintaining a 15 days supply. (Continued on Page 2)

TRepubIIcan A. p. Leased Wlre1

NEW YORK, Dec. 10.-Testimony that Captain Karl W. Detzer had struck military prisoners in France in the face and ordered his sergeants to "beat them up," in order to force confessions" was given today by three witnesses when he was placed on trial at Governors Island. The of fences with which Captain Detzer is charged occurred while he was in charge of criminal investigation" in the Lemans area. The defendant was lice company.
 George F. Williams of Corning, Iowa, a discharged private, asserted that after he had been slapped by Detzer. the captain ordered Sergeants U. S. Madden and Frank L. Hoyt, "to take him out in the yard and make him come clean"
 Williams declared that while Hoyt held his hands behind his back Mad den beat him. until, fearing he was to be Killed" he had signed a statement which he believed was to the effect that he had stolen property.
 Private Thomas J. McAdams, now attached to the Fifth guard company at Governors Island, testified that, after having been picked up" on the streets at a time when he was an attending patient at a base hospital, he had been beaten by Sergeant Hoyt. Detzer. he said, came into the room, asked him why he did not confess to a certain crime so that he would not be beaten any more and left after Hoyt had said:
 Get out of the room, Captain, while I give him some more"
 Arsx.aI n.st&L
 McAdams said he had signed a statement prepared by Hoyt because he was in fear of his hfe. not only from the beating he said he had re- ceived. but by the appearance of Cap tain Detzer and his men armed with guns and black jacks"
 Samuel G. Roth of Chicago, who once had been Detzer's desk sergeant testified that he had seen Detzer vio- late his own order by striking two prisoners.
 ThoT1as Gossett of Galveston. Tex as. once a guard of the office of Cap tain Detzer, testified that he never had seen any prisoners struck

Expect Capacity Run Friday


 Operators tonight predicted full re- sumption of operations Friday and shipment of coal from the mines be- ginning Monday morning.
 Miners. operators and government officials alike were highly gratified over the settlement and all sides ap- peared confident of a final satisfactory settlement of the fight by the con- mission.
 The action today ends a tie-up Of the soft coal industry of more than five weeks duration and which was more far reaching In its efforts than any other in the history of the coun- try. As result of the strike the country was fast approaching a shut down of Industry and whispered suf- fering among its one hundred million inhabitants.
 The decision came after many hours of debate, in which the radical ele- ment made fncendiary speeches against operators and others interest in the | settlement of the strike and for a time threatened the defeat of efforts to settle the strike at this time The | conservative element, led by Acting President Lewis and Secretary Treas urer William Green, gained control of the situation this morning and suc- ceeded in putting down virtually all opposition by the time the question came to a vote.
 Radicals Gain One Point
 One concession was made to the radicals. The convention agreed to the calling of a general convention o! the miners at future date at which time the action of and reasons for the general committee will be fully ex- plained. The opponents of acceptance of the presidents plan made their. fight principally on the theory that only a general convention of the mine workers had power to call off ths. strike.
 Members of the general committee tonight steadfastly refused to make public the name of the delegate who cast the one dissenting vote.
 Two statements were given out fol- lowing adjournment of the conference by Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer, who first submitted the presi- dents proposal to Acting President Lewis and Secretary Treasurer Green l at a conference in Washington last , Saturday and came to Indianapolis Monday to await the outcome of con sideration of the plan by the miner l general committee.
 } Compliments Union Officials MT. Palmer's first statement ex- pressed his qualification at the de- cision of the miners and complimented MT. Lewis and MT. Green for their wise and patriotic action
