Gompers May Make
Personal Appeal For
Injunction Withdrawal

Washington, Nov. There are
rqmors, apparently emanating from
high sources, that the injunction
hearing set for Saturday might go
over for one week without prejudice
to either side. Equally persistent
were reports that Samuel Gompers,
president of the American Federation
of Labor, would make a personal
appeal to the Attorney General
sometime to-day for the withdrawal
of the restraining order and all court
proceedings on assurance that If this
were done the strike could be
settled and the men put back to
work in the mines in As hours. Mr..
Palmer was out of the city, but the
statement by Judge Ames that the
Government would not compromise
the strike, which it held illegal, was
accepted as the last word on the
subject.
Government officials took another
look at stock reports and while these
Indicated coal enough to meet i'm
mediate needs, the fact stared them
In the face that the daily consumD-
tion was around ten million tons,
While the daily output had been re-
duced by the strike to about three
and one-half million tons. 1t was
easy for q man to figure, they said,
how long present stocks would last,
assuming the bins were filled for an
average run of thirty days.

The Pennsylvania War History
Commission has collected the infor-
nation at present available on the
ship-building industry of this State
during the war. Figures on keels
laid and bottoms launched can
hardly be correct as several of the
largest yards are turning out a ship
from every three to ten days. How
ever, there have been approximately
17O vessels of all descriptions
launched into the Delaware from
PENNSYLVANIA yards since this coun-
try entered the war in April of 1917.
In addition there were a few vessels
being fitted out in the spring of 1917
which were commandeered by the
Government.
The shipping total runs we'll into

sumption of operations by mines
closed down by the miners strike
has risen considerably during the
last two days, according to reports
received here to-day. Forty-five
mines throughout the State which
were tied up at the beginning of the
walkout were reported working to-
day. This is a gain of one since
Wednesday. Most of the mines are
nonunion and production in the ag-
sgregate is small, however, and mine
union officials declare there has
been no break in the strikers ranks.
The Kanawha Coal Operators AS
sociation has made public a letter
sent to President Wilson yesterday
taking exception to the letter of C.
F. Keeney, president of District No.
II, United Mine Workers of Amer
lea, to the President relative to
wages paid the miners.
The operators said Mr.. Keeney's
statement that the operators made
IAN average profit of $1.45 on each
ton of coal mined" was unfair,
misleading and impossible of proof
and a serious indictment against
the fuel department"
Figures were given showing wage
increases granted the miners during
the last four years ranging from
4S to 164 per cent. During this
period, the letter said, there has
been no increase in house rents and
lights, and only an increase in house
fuel as allowed and agreed to by
the Washington agreement"

Fall Overseas Is Fatal
For Lancaster Soldier

Lancaster, Pa, Nov. 7.-Benjamin
f. Harman died yesterday at the
General Hospital as the result of
injuries received from fall while
serving with the United States Army
overseas. He was 81 years of age.
Benny" despite the fact that he
was a helpless cripple, was. the one
ray of sunshine in the hospital and
his bright smile and CHEEKY ways
helped many less afflicted to get we'll.
His chief regret was that he went
to France to fight the battle for a
a chance to swat the Hun" His
company was nearing the firing line
one night and was forced to bunk
in a barn. While seeking a place to
rest he fell through hay hole, in
juring his spine so as to perma-
panently paralyZe his limbs.

New Move to Halt
Lifting of the Ban

Warrington, Nov. 7.-An effort to
prevent the lifting of wartime pro-
hibition before the Constitutional
amendment becomes effective is to
be made by some dry" leaders in
Congress, but doubt is expressed
whether the necessary legislation
can be enacted before the end of the
special session late this month.
Representative Randall (Prohibi-
tionist), of California, said yesterday
that when the House took up the
bill to extend the food control act
for six months after the proclama-
ton of peace he would offer an
amendment continuing the wartime
liquor act until January 16, 1920,
when the country goes dry by Con-
stitutional amendment.

Paris, France. Aug. 2g.-Rumanian

which it appears that the central en-
plres. between December !, 1915. and
october 10. 1918, removed from Ruma-
MIA 5,d05,l4S tons Of merchandise. Of
which 2,l61.0 COS tons were fOodstuffs

Bucharest. 1t is pointed out that the
figures quoted do not include postal
parcels which German and Austrian
invaders sent home by the carload
daily, nor what the army OF occupa-
ton consumed
In view OF this immense spolia-

OF Rumanian delegations from the in

protests against clauses in the new
armistice with Hungary seem at least
strange. The armistice does not re-

Worlds Lepers,

The American secretary for the Mis- sion of Lepers estimates that there are not fewer than 100000 Iepers in the world, 6,000 of whom have been converted to Christianity. Apropos of this, the Hawaiian legislature has just offered to pension Bro. Joseph Dutton. who succeeded Father Damien at the leper settlement on Molokai. Brother Dutton has not been off the leper island for 33 years and has spent $10,- 900 of his own money to relieve the poor creatures among whom he lives. But he refused the pension, wishing no reward and expecting to work on to the end In the cause to which he long ago devoted his life. The world has heroes of whom it rarely hears l; and it cannot be otherwise than that such self-sacrifice must win a higher reward than governments or the plaud- its ot peoples can confer.

RecIaiming Waste Places.

Twenty years ago a news story from Washington says land in the Louisiana parish of Tangipahoa was worth 50 cents an acre and human life was worth scarcely anything at all. It was a case of cause and effect.
 Then the immigrants came. They were chiefly Italians and Hungarians. They had lived at home on land that was poorer than the Tangipahoa. They practiced intensive cultivation. Today their parish is one of the greatest strawberry farming districts in the United States.
 Land that sold for 50 cents is now worth $100 an acre. And the school authorities have practiced intensive cultivation on the human products of that land Americanization has made life worth more there than it ever was before.-Binghamton News.
