MILITARY CONTINUES
GARY INVESTIGATION
AND MAKES HEADWAY
IRepubIIean A. p. Leased Wirel

Military authorities today continued
their investigation into alleged radical
activities in connection with the strike
OF steel workers at Gary, Ind. and
questioned several men, including An
ton Gorski, who is said to be under
surveillance in connection with the ex-
plosion Of bomb in the Chicago post
office in September, 1918.
The reports of discovery of a wide
spread plot against military canton
ments were denied tonight by Colonel
W. S. Mapes, commanding the federal
troops at Gary. Reports that troops
were being sent from the Gary dis
trict to protect government property in
various parts of the country were also
denied by Colonel Mapes.
Major General Leonard Wood, com-
manding the central department of the
United States army, was in conference
with Colonel W. S. Mapes, commander
of the troops at Gary, today. Drastic
measures to combat the red plots are
said to have been arranged by the mill
tary leaders.
Colonel Mapes announced tonight
that no confession had been obtained
from Gorski in regard to the Chicago
federal building bomb plot, but it was
intimated that Gorski would be q fed
eral witness. The federal officers are
now searching for Alexander Ivanoff,
Gary steel worker and electrician, who
is said to have been implicated by
Gorski as maker of the thirty-six
bombs which were sent to prominent
men throughout the country in forged
wrappings Of Gimbel Brothers store in
New York.
Intelligence officers continued their
raids at Gary today in search of radi-
cal literature. They reported finding
quantity of radical propaganda
printed in German and large German
flag.
A platoon of federal troops was sta
toned near the steel mills in Gary to-
day after reports had been made that
bricks and horseshoes had been thrown
| through the windows Of the plants by
| strikers.
The strike bulletin issued by the
steel workers today disavowed the
proclamation issued yesterday by the
communist party of America" calling
on the working men to establish "dic-
tatorship' and wrest control of Gary
from the federal troops.
Arizona republican., 1919-10-15

The Washington senator offered
resolution asking why the department
Of justice had not proceeded against
the circulators of revolutionary propa-
ganda. Senator Thomas, democrat
Colorado, questioned the need for the
resolution. He said the steel strikers
in his state had no grievance; that
they were fighting for Naturalization
of the steel industry.
Senator Pomerene, democrat, Ohio,
remarked that his information was
that the strike leaders were holding
soon would be in the employees hands
as a means Of getting the men to re-
main on strike.
While the senate was discussing
radicalism, the house foreign affairs
committee favorably reported a reso
luton extending for one year war
time passport restrictions SO as to ex-
clude radicals and undesirable aliens.
thousands of whom are waiting to
come to this country, according to con-
sular reports from abroad.
| Before the house immigration COM
mittee, Representative Welty, demo-
crat, Ohio, urged that all aliens now
in the country be required to register
| Immediately and that undesirable ones
be deported without delay. He de-
clared that recent events at Gary and
Pittsburg indicated that the govern
ment should know the character and
whereabouts of all aliens in the
United States.

CABINET MOVES To
AVERT STRIKE OF
SOFT COAL WORKERS
[Republlean A. p. Leased Wlrel

WASHINGTON, Oct 15.-Immediate
steps to avert the threatened nation
wide strike of bituminous coal mine
workers are to be taken by the federal
government After President Wilson's
cabinet had discussed the situation at
length today, Secretary Wilson OF the
department Of labor, announced that
he>would invite John l.. Lewis, presi-
dent OF the United Mine Workers Of
America, and John l. Brewster, rep
resenting the operators, to confer with
him. probably Thursday.
While efforts of the miners and op-
orators 10 reach an agreement on the
demands OF the workers, which include
increased pay and shorter hours, have
failed, Secretary Wilson is hopeful that
some anicable adjustment Of the con-
troversy can be made. 1t is under
stood that he will impress upon both
Mr. Lewis and Mr.. Brewster the i'm
portance of uninterrupted operation If
the mines upon the life Of the nation.
The possible effect of such a strike
on the railroads is understood to be
Ippermost in the minds Of government
officials. A shutdown of the mines
would result in paralysis of the
transportation system within a short
time with consequent suffering over
the country because of the shutting off
OF populous centers from food supplies.
Industry would also be brought to a
standstitll with public utilities stopped
and shipping tied up.
President Lewis OF the miners union,
who has been in this city comforting
with other union officials, went to In
dianapolis today to prepare the call for
the strike on November 1. Officials
hope the issuing of the call win be
deferred until after the conference
here. Should the conference be barren
OF results, further action by the gov
ernment is expected but no one In au-
thority would venture to suggest what
form that action would take. While
the cabinet today decided to leave the
settlement of the strike with the de-
partment OF labor. it was regarded as
more than likely that IL the conference
failed the entire cabinet would consider
the next course.
Besides the threatened strike OF coal
miners, the cabinet discussed the gen.
eral industrial situation today and II
was announced that Secretary Baker
would make statement on the sub
ject tomorrow before the federation Of
women's clubs at Cleveland.

PRESIDENT SPENDS
GOOD DAY DESPITE
A SLIGHT REACTION
Iaepubllean A. p. Leased wIre1

WASHINGTON, Oct. 14.-Despite
the reaction from a restless night and
a cold rainy day. which cast it's dismal
shadow even into the sick room,
President Wilson was said late today
at the white house to have spent an
other good day.
The general condition of Mr.. Wilson
again was described as favorable, Rear
Admiral Grayson and Doctors Stitt and
Ruffin noting in the daily bulletin that
his temperature, pulse, respiration,
heart action and blood pressure were
normal.
While announcement that the presi-
dents rest was being interferred with
by a swollen prostate gland, it was
emphasized by DR.. Grayson that such
was not uncommon and was of little
Importance save as 1t caused some dis
comfort.
Reports that congress might adjourn
pending the presidents recovery were
met at the white house with the state
ment that's uch step was absolutely
unnecessary and would be opposed
vigorously by the executive.
It was reiterated today that the
presidents condition was such as to
allow him to act on any important
legislative matter that might demand
his attention.
In the regular night bulletin on the
presidents condition, issued from the
white house at 10 o'clock, DIR. Grayson
said:
THE president has had a restless
and uncomfortable day, but he is bet
ter tonight"
In connection with the issuance OF
the bulletin, DR.. Grayson announced
that DIR. H. A. Fowler. a Washington
specialist, had been called in for con-
sultation and through his efforts il
had been able to reduce the swelling
of the prostate gland which it was
stated today had interfered with the
rest Of the president last night.
