HINES SAYS REGENT PRODUCTION OF COAL
 ABOVE THE AVERAGE
Country in Better Shape Than During Six Months Prior
 to September.

Washington, Oct. 29.-Production of bituminous coal since September has exceeded the average and the increased available supply has been taken care of by the railroads, Dir ector General Hines announced to- night, with the result that the coun- try enters a coal strike in far bet ter shape than had the walkout oc- cured during the six months pre- vious to September.
 The first six months of 1919, the director general said in formal statement, saw an abnormally small amount of coal mined and transport ed because of lack of demand.
 The highest production that had ever been made in week, he pointed out, was 13,OOO,OOO tons, the high est that had been averaged for any considerable period of weeks was something more than 100000 tons.
 "Up to September" his statement said, "not exceeding 10,00O,00O tons of bituminous coal had been trans ported per week. The railroad ad- ministration early in September in- structed that the railroads endeavor to provide transportation for H. OOO,00O tons per week."
 On Thursday, October 16, the dir ector continued, instructions were is- sued for railroads serving coal mines to make preferential efforts to fur nish coal mines with empty coal cars up to the ability of the mines to load daily, and for non-coal loading rail roads to commence immediately to de livery daily to their nearest coa] loading or coal route connections empty coal cars up to the maximum ability.

Operators Are
 Still Willing to
 Arbitrate Strike

St. Louis, Oct. 29.-Thomas J. Brewster, chairman of the scale com- mittee of the Mine Operators asso- ciation, tonight reiterated that the mine owners would make no attempt to operate the mines without gov ernment aid after the strike became effective, and re-asserted that the operators would reopen negotiations with the miners if the strike order were rescinded pending settlement of differences. Mir. Brewster said he had not heard that the operators had called a meet ing at Cleveland to discuss the pros- pective strike.
 Mr. Brewster declared the state ment issued by the miners at In- dianapolis tonight, was "merely a reiteration of what they have said before"
 "The operators" continued Mir. Brewster, twill resume negotiations with the miners and submit all disa- greements to arbitration, provided the strike order be rescinded pend- ing negotiations, and the award of the arbitration board. We have assur- ed the president and Secretary Will son we would do this, but the miners have refused to-"
 When told that Attorney General Palmer would act in the strike under provisions of the Lever Food Control act, Mir. Brewster said the operators would cooperate with the govern ment to the fullest extent in continu- ing production of coal.
 "We cannot operate the mines of our own accord if the men walk out," he said. Claws in certain states provide for the status of miners and without government intervention we cannot put anybody to work to fill the strikers places.
 Enforcement of the food control act is the only possible way by which the crisis can be averted."

Attempt Made to Show Consul "1n"
 On Kidnapping Case

Washington. Oct. 29.-Advices reached the state department today stating that Senor Mestre, personal attorney for William o. Jenkins, the American consular agent in Puebla, Mex, who was kidnapped and ransom ed for $15O,O00, had been arrested, charged with complicity in the kid naping.
 State department officials regard the arrest of Mestre and the charges officially made in Mexico that Jenk- ins was in plot to be kidnapped and ransomed for large sum, as anoth- CT example of the Mexican govern ment policy of attempting to cloud the issue by raising false issues, in the endeavor to cover up the inef ficiency of the government in pro- tecting foreigners and nationals throughout Mexico. It is likened to the charges made by the Carranzis- tas that the oil company paymasters robbed themselves.
 The charge has been openly made by the state government of Puebla that Jenkins acted by orders of the United States government to hide himself. and thus provoke grave international situation. This is brand. ed by state department officials as being "unutterably absurd"

GOVERNMENT WILL
 PROTECT PUBLIC;
 TO CONTROL FUEL
Continued from Page One)

(COntlnued from Page One) houses, it was stated, that all the money the government needed in the emergency would be provided speed fly and cheerfully.
 Clothed with it's war time powers, the administration would be called upon to see that the coal supply Is conserved and distributed as it was during the shortage two winters ago. Railroads must have first call, with second consideration given es- sential industries, on which the pub lie depends for comfort and warmth.
 Railroads Have Little.
 The government contends that the miners are working today under war time agreement made by Dr. Gar field, stipulated to run until the end of the war, or until April 1, 1920.
 This date was put into the agree ment so that a new scale might be agreed upon in event the war was not over by that date. The fuel ad ministration, holding the agreement still valid, would be authorized, it was said, to take charge of the mines and keep them in operation.
 Dr. Garfield was called to Wash ington by the cabinet at suggestion

of Director General Hines. The rail- road administration is the nations biggest coal buyer, and it's stock, ac- cording to reports given out last week by union officials, is relatively small. Anticipating a strike, the railroads especially those touching the central coal fields, have been giv- en "one hundred per cent coal car service" which means that railway stocks have been largely increased within the last 48 hours. Director Hines in conference during the day with cabinet officers told of extraor- dinary precautions to assure full service by all the roads until the emergency has passed.
 Since miners and operators failed to settle their differences at the joint conference here last week, re- ports had gained wide circulation that the men who called the strike would be arrested and held on charges of conspiracy.
 John L. Lewis, acting president of the United Mine Workers of America referred to these reports and said union men would not evade the issue. Announcement today that such a step had not been con- sidered by the department of jus tice, and would not be considered, re- lieved feeling in some quarters.
