MIDWEST FACES
STOPPAGE ALL
ITS INDUSTRIES
Industrial Life Being StilIed
Through Shortage of Coal
5000 Plants in Chicago Must
Close Their Doors.

Chicago, Dec. 2.-The industrial life
of the middle west was slowly but
surely being stilled today by the coal
shortage.
Renewal of the war time restrictions
on coal consumption was to be placed
into effect today No coal will be dis
tributed to any but industries which
are necessary to the well being of the
people.
Theatres, churches, schools. clubs
and other meeting places will be closed
iii pra ctics llA all cities of the middle
west by the end of the week, accord
ing to prediction of those in touch with
II @ situation today. They have been
Shut down in many places already.
About 5000 plants in Chicago alone
viii not be allowed II receive any more
coal and will have to close down when
their present supplies are exhausted.
This viii affect 100000 wage earners
whose weekly wage is estimated at
90, 900, 600
Reports from throughout the btu
minous coal producing fields today
Indicated that few needed the request
of operators to return to work and an
increase of IA per cent in wages. No
miners were reported back digging coal
in Indiana. Iowa. Illinois or Ohio, where
the strongest efforts were made by
operators to induce the men Ito re-
turn.

Pierre, S. D.. Dec. 2.-Three political
parties were hunting presidential ma
terial here today
simultaneous state conventions of
Republicans, Democrats and Nom
Partisans We're expected to nominate
majority and minority candidates for
national and state offices in the first
clash of the 1920 elections. Primar-
les will be held in March,
Three factions have scrambled the
Republican eggs. In vigorous as
sault late yesterday. Senator Poindex-
ter of Washington tried to get on the
nest where Major General Leonard
Wood apparently had been secure.
At the same time friends of Cover
nor Frank o. Lowden, of Illinois were
trying to shake the others from the
roost. Still others crowed for Sem
ator w. S. Kenyon of Iowa, and Sena-
tor Hiram Johnson of California.
Governor Peter j. Norbecks forces
looked strongest early today and there
were indications that Norbeck's wish
es would be carried out in the Re-
publican convention. The governor
made public his Endorsement of Ma
jor General Wood when the Poindex-
ter followers made a noisy counter at
tack late yesterday.
Democrats apparently We're set upon
a resolution indorsing President Will
son despite many indications that the
chief executive has no immediate in
tention of besoming third term cam
didate. Democratic leaders counted
upon such a move to strengthen the
administrators senate fight on the
peace treaty, Possible nominees in
the Democratic convention, however
were William G.. McAdoo and Attor-
ney General Palmer.
