 Surprise to Officials.

Surprise to Officials.
 Washington, Oct. 29.-Refusal of the miners organization 10. withdraw the strike order was a distinct sur prise to officials in Washington who charged quickly from a hopeful to a lighting attitude. There was di- position to dispute the right of the men to strike. but officials were grim ly determined to see that men who do not strike will be protected in and out of the mines. even if that means the presence of troops.
 Betore first word of rejection of the presidents appeal reached here from Indianapolis, machinery was being made ready to deal with conditions likely to arise in the coal fields Fuel Administrator Garfield was summoned neTe from Massachusetts for confer enLc al the White House and until the very last he was strongly of the opin- ion that the strike would not take place.
 Civilian Army for Mines.
 When he returned to the White House late in the day. after the miners committee had spoken. it was to deal however. with a different situati tion. There was loss of time. Exactly what the government proposed to do was not explained. but paramount consideration was given the problem Of moving volume of coal passing swiftly from mines to cities within the next IeW days and rounding up a civilian army that might be ready to work the mines.
 Revive Fuel Administration.
 The necessity of reviving the fuel admInlStratlon was emphasized at va rious conferences during the day and this is to be decided tomorrow when President Wilson will receive recom- mendations of the conference of off, c1alsa meeting late today that control of prices again be exercised Dr. Garfield, still technically head of the fuel administration, has no skeleton organiza tion,' but his forces can be quickly mobilized. Administration leaders said congress would have to provide immediate funds, and assur- -ances came from leaders of both houses it was stated. that all the the government needed in the would be provided speedily and cheerfuiIy.
 Clothed with it's wartime powers. the administration would be called upon to see that the coal supply is con served and distributed as it was during the shortage two winters ago. Rail roads must have first call, with second consideration given essential industries on which the public depends for com fort and warmth.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
SATURDAYS MARKET.

New York. Dec 2O.-A further ad- vance occurred on the Stock Exchange in todays carly market; railway shares especially reaching as a rule the best prices of the week. This was a response, first to the unexpectedly rapid work done in the senate yester- day with a view to passing the senate railway bill before the holidays, and, second. to the secretary of the treas ury's formal request for congressional authority to fund the next few years interest on our governments loans to the allies. The advance in prices was not extensive and there was more or less reaction in the later trading. But the. feeling of reinsurance and re- stored cheerfulness was evident.
 The later precautionary movement of prices was doubtless based on the fact that even the senate's adoption of the Cummins Railroad bill would not settle the question. Adoption of its own bill by the house, the framing of a compromise measure by the confer cnce committee, and the consideration Of that bill in both houses may or may not be practicable before the end of tho month. Meantime. the president Is evidently deferping action, on an extension beyond January 1 of the date for turning hack the railroads, until 1t is seen what congress can act uaiiy do this month.

 Statement by Goldman.
 Recently asked who her relatives were. Miss Goldman replied: q have children all over the United States" In 1887. when II years old, she. was married in Rochester to Jacob A. Kersner. who came from Russia in 1882 and was naturaliZed two years later. In 1909 his citizenship was re- voked because he was not 21 when naturalized and had not been five years in the United States. The mar riage ceremony was performed by a schochtet-a slayer of animals for kosher meat Two years later the Kersners were divorced by a rabbi according to the Jewish rite. Kernser seems then to have passed out of Miss l Goldman'S life entirely, for announce ment in court during her final fight against deportation that he had died i this year took her my surprise. It was on claim that marriage to him made her citizen that her legal ef- forts to remain in this country were | based.

LEONARD FAvoRIJE'IN s
 BOUT WITH DUNDEE

When Johnny Dundee steps in the ring against Worlds Champion Benny Leonard for their 20-round boxing contest at New Haven. the little Ital- ian lightweight will go in with the ex- perience of ten 20-round bouts. Leon ard will toe the mark never having gone 20 rounds and with only two 1z- round sessions under his belt This may make some difference and it may not, but Dundee believes his 20-round experience will cut considerable f1g- ure and believes if he uses his head which no doubt he will. he will be able to play safe for the first ten rounds and cut loose. the last ten. to cop the referees decision.
 Of course this is Dundee's dop and the dope, perhaps of those who have so many years been loyal to the little battler and even now expect he will get the decision. The majority of fans throughout the country however place all the confidence in the world in Leonard's ability to stop Dundee and believe that the coming bolIt 1qil' 70 the final session between these two noted lightweights who have swaKped punches so many times over the short route.
 That Leonard will go to the post a req not IaVOrlte IS well abllShed fact as ever since Leonard defeated Freddy Walsh it has been argued that he stands head, and shoulders over any of the field of lightweights.
 Whne Leonard and Dundee come to New Haven to finish their training for. the big bout, there. is sure to be much interest. among the lovers of sport. Both boys will work ,out every day with competent sparring part ners. Joe Benjamin, Billy sGibson's new lightweight. who is coming along in fine shape and some day expects tc succeed Champion Leonard, will work out with the champion and it is said the work of Benjamin is feature ir itself. Just who will work with Dun. dee has not been decided yet.
