FIRE IN BURNING MINE
CHECKED: SHAFT SEALED
Largest Bituminous Source in the
World Entirely Electrical
1y Equipped.

BICKNEL Ind, November s.
American No. 1 mine. said to be the
largest bituminous coal mine in the
world. which was discovered on fire
last night. had been completely sealed
today after workmen had toiled fran
tically. practically all night. Because
of the size of the mine and the valua-
BILE machinery it contained the fire is
said to be one of the most disastrous
in the country. The mine is entirely
electrically equipped, not a mule be-
ing used in it.
Ordinarily $50 men are employed
and the mine has capacity of 5000
tons of coal daily. Only twenty-one
men. including bumpers and engi-
neers. were employed when the fire
was discovered, and these were res
cued.
The cause of the fire had not been
determined today. The squad of oxy-
gen helmet men entered the mine as
soon as smoke was seen issuing from
the shaft and found the fire was close
to the bottom of the mine and that
the entire working would have to be
sealed over. The shaft probably will
have to remain sealed from two weeks
to two months.
Although the employees of the mine
are on strike, more than 100 gathered
about the shaft as soon as the alarm
was sounded and volunteered to fight
the fire, as evidence. they said, that
they had no connection with the fire.

EFFECT OF BUNKERING BAN.
Injunction Against Foreign Ships
Will Harm Trade Little.

me railroad administration forbid
ding bunkering of foreign ships will
not diminish the foreign commerce of
the United States to any great extent,
officials of the shipping board assert.
The ruling will have the greatest
effect on foreign vessels plying be-
tween the United States and South
American ports. it is claimed. except
for such vessels as are held up in
American harbors. 1t is pointed out
that the majority of European ships
can coal for the round trip either upon
departure for America or obtain suf-
ficient coal for bunker purposes at
Halifax. Practically no change in
shipping board schedules because of
the coal situation is looked for. as it
is thought that the board will receive
d weekly allotment of coal for it's
needs.
When it was called to their atten-
tion that the Tidewater Coal Ex-
change had continued TO issue bun
kering permits to foreign vessels in
New York yesterday railroad admin
istration officials said ii was probable
that the bunkering order had not yet
reached exchange officials.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, November s.
In a keynote speech here last night
launching the candidacy of Gov. Frank
o. Lowden of Illinois for the presi
dency of the United States, Representa-
tive William A. Rodenberg of East
st. Louis presented to the Illinois Re-
publican Editorial Association the name
of Gov. Calvin Coolidge of Massachu-
sets as a running mate for Lowden.
The mention of Gov Coolidges name
brought a storm of applause.
Significance was attached to the link
ing of the two names because of the
fact that Representative Rodenberg has
been picked to make the Lowden nomi-
mating speech on the floor of the ma
tional convention.
Gov. Lowden was given an ova-
ton when he was referred to by Repre-
sentative Rodnberg as the nations
next choice"
Preceding the Rodenberg address Gov
Lowden spoke briefly. He thanked the
editors for their support during the
crucial days of the war and declared

itless in the days of reconstruction. He
paid tribute to the history of the re-
