RACE WITH DEATH
Rescue Party Within 50 Feet of
Entombed Miners.
Fire Under Control, but Feared
21 Are Already Dead.

Amsterdam, Ohio. Oct. 31.-"We
are now within about thirty feet of
where the men are supposed to have
been hidden. We should get to them
today. Whether we get them dead or
alive. 1 do not care to guess. The fire
is under control"
The above statement was made this
morning by Jerome Watson, in charge
of the work of rescuing twenty-five
miners imprisoned in the burning
Youghiogheny & Ohio Coal company
mine here.
Watson worked his men all night.
The gangs labored in half hour shifts,
cutting their way with shovel and pick
thru the tons of rock and coal block
ing the tunnel. Watson said the fire
can be considered well under control
The race now is to reach the men
before hunger or thirst or the gas
fumes finish what the fire started-if
the men are not already dead.
A mine rescue car from Pittsburgh
arrived late yesterday and assisted the
Ohio mine experts in the work.
Many of the rescuers were over
come by gas while at work and were
revived with lung motors.

mum Charges for Fuel.
VIII Reduce Bitumin0us Cost
Many Places.

Washington, Oct S1-President
Wilson today issued an executive order
re- esta blishing the maximum prices
for fuel as they existed when the fuel
administration ceased to function.
The president acted under authority
of the food and fuel control act The
order officials said, will reduce prices
of coal in many sections of the coun-
try.
Prices of anthracite are not af-
fected. The maximum prices are fixed
by states and for prepared sizes range
from $500 a net ton at mine mouth
to $3.50.
Rules set up during the war gov
erning the margins of profits of mid
dlemen and wholesale and retail deal
ers were re-esta blished and Fuel Ad-
ministrator Garfield was given all the
authority to regulate production, sale,
shipment distribution. apportionment
and storage or use of bituminous coal

Disagrees With Bakers Ideas
ON Permanent Force.
Urges Regulars Be Limited to
100000 at Most.
PLEADS FOR AIR SERVICE
Declares Must Keep Abreast
With Other Nations There.
Favors Continuing Allowing
President Broad Army Powers.

Washington, Oct. Bids
agreeing with war department
recommendations for a perfha-
nent army of 100000, Gen. John
j. Pershing today told joint
meeting of the senate and house
military committee that he
thought the number could be
placed at IAN outside figure of
275, 900 and 100000. and posi-
bly, less"
He also declared for univer-
sal military training.
The cost of maintaining a
large army, the general said,
was an element which, in his
opinion, would make it inprac-
ticable to set the figure any
higher.
For Universal Training
| The general said the regular army
should be sufficient to protect the ma
| ton against sudden attack and meet
America international obligations
both on the American continent and
elsewhere. and that this should be
backed up by trained citizen re-
serve"
These forces must be able to cope
with any internal, disturbance, asserted
! Pershing.
Plea for Big Air Service.
The general made plea that the
nation keep abreast of other countries
in development of the air service and
| said it also was essential that the
| transport corps, nurse corps and tank
corps be made adequate. He thought
the number of officers of high rank
provided for in pending legislation was
| rather excessive
The general predicted a great fu-
ture for the air service and said that
France, Great Britain and Italy were
laying stress on this phase of the
! army.
Benefits of Training Plan.
Outlining the benefits which he be-
| lieved would result from adoption of
universal military training, Pershing
| included:
Development of physical vigor and
manhood, development of, mentality.
| decrease of illiteracys teaching of dis
! cipIine and respect for constituted au-
| thority, development of initiative and
better preparation for the duties of
citizenship. This last benefit. PERISH
ing said, is especially needed among
aliens in America.
If America had not been unprepared
| our rights would not have been Vio-
| lated, Pershing said, and added that
| this country's success in the war was
due to the united determination of the
people rather than to any forethought
in preparedness.
1.-THE war has placed this country in
| a new light" Pershing said. 1T is no
longer measured by wealth. by its
population or by our form of govern
ment, but by our purposes to maintain
high ideals"
Continue Presidents Powers.
The A. f. F. chief recommended
that the broad powers of army reor-
ganization allowed the president dur
ing the war time be continued in
peace. This is in accord with the gen.
eral staff view.
such powers are necessary in time
of war he said. and would be wise
in times of peace with the Limitation
that the president could not establish
or discontinue bureaus"

Family Coal Bins Rationed to
One Ton Each.
City Cut in Lighting Service in
Effect Tonight.
TOP WHITE WAY BULBS ONLY
Municipal Signs and City Parks
To Be Dark.
Edison Company Has 2O-Day
Coal Supply Here.

Topeka today is on the old wartime
fuel conservation basis
The rationing system. by which
only one ton of coal will be allowed
each consumer at a time. was adopted
at a meeting of the 1 s coal dealers of
the city with Mayor H. J. CorWine
Thursday night.
Today. Wilbur Stanfield, water ana
light commissioner, announced a con-
seryation measure to be put into eff
feet tonight which he estimates will
save the city about 125 tons of coal
a month. The lights to be discon$
tinued are the lower arms of the white
way, except on Saturday; the three
Topeka" sign at the Rock Island
Union Pacific and Santa Fe depots:
lights in Ripley, Garfield and Chesney
parks. The park lights were to be
discontinued November 1 anyway.
That the Topeka Edison company
may be compelled to shut down in the
event the coal strike lasts a month
was seen in the statement of A H
Purdy, mana ger, this morning that
the company had only enough fuel
10 last twenty days This on the con-
dition that car of fuel oil can be
received every day
All Service or None.
The nature of theSEdison operations
are such that partial service cannot be
maintained, Purdy said. Conservation
on heat is the only thing that will
make the Edison fuel supply last long
er, and conservation of lights is worse
than useless, Purdy explained
H. L. Peppmeyer, of the Topeka
Coal company, was named coal die
tator of the city. with full authority,
and rules tdHcontrol the situation were
agreed upon Thursday night at the
meeting of coal dealers and the mayor
Mayor Corwine called the meeting
to canvass the situation and adopt
ways of protecting families without
fuel. 1t was found there are approx
mately $500 tons of coal on the deal
ers' hands in Topeka. Eighty per cent
of the families of Topeka have coal on
hand, leaving LOCO families yet to be
supplied. it was said
1t was decided that orders placed
prior to today be filled, and this will
leave barely enough coal to supply the
1900 families. Altho there are $500
tons in transit, dealers doubt If it will
be received. owing to confiscation by
the railroad administration.
All Orders Checked.
Consumers who seek to get more
than one ton by placing orders with
several dealers will be disappointed, as
all orders will be checked by Pepp
meyer. and no Implications permitted.
II is not believed the stores and schools
will be compelled to close for the
present, but if the coal strike con-
tinues two weeks it was intimated that
this measure might be adopted in the
emergency. Soft coal is scarce, and if
no more shipments arrive the present
supply will be exhausted in two days,
It is predicted.

NO GUARD MOVE.
Orders for Mobilization State
Troops Fail To Come.
Await Word From H0wat-
Crawford to Mine District.

No move was made today to mobilize
the Kansas national guard. With
the nationwide coal strike only a few
hours away. no intimation was sent to
Topeka by federal departments that
Kansas guardsmen are to be called.
Any request for Suardsmen for fed
eraI service will come to Governor Al
len. Clyde NJ. Reed, secretary, stated
this afternoon that no request was re-
ceived. Neither has information of
any nature come to the state house
from federal sources. Gen. Charles 1.
ceiyed no intimation of use of guards
men from this state. No plans for
mobilization have been made, he de-
clared.
The governors office had not heard
from Alexander M Howat, Pittsburg,
relative to proposal that the miners
and operators get together. The mes
sage from the governors office to
Howat was sent late Thursday How
at had left indianapolis and is pre-
sumed to be on his way home.
Sherwood Reed Conference.
John H. Crawford. state labor COM
missioner, will probably go to Pitts
burg tonight and may spend a day or
two in the strike district. James w.
Sherwood, state mine inspector, who
Thursday declared government inter
ference with the strike would mean a
revolution and urged that the presi-
dent should be impeached, was in the
state house today. He visited the gov
ernor's office shortly before noon and
conferred with Secretary Reed. In
commenting on the Sherwood state
ment, Reed declared that in his judg-
ment the newspapers exercised bad
judgment in giving the statement to
the public.
