New York. Nov. S.-Agents of the
department Of Justice and officials of
New York's police bomb squad, cooper
ating in the "extermination" of radi-
Gals in this city, let it be known to-
day that their work was far from
ended with the spectacular raids on
radical headquarters here last night.
In the absence of definite state
ment regarding steps to be taken in
connection with the 30 or more al
hged radicals who failed to obtain
their releases last night, it was gem
orally understood that deportation pro
ceedings will follow promptly.
The raids here, personally directed
by William J. Flynn head of the bu-
reau of investigation of the depart :
ment of justice, came as surprise to
the 200 or more persons assembled in
the Russian Peoples house in the lower
east side. The building was surround
ed by uniformed policemen and filled
with federal agents before the 6ccu-
pants realized what was taking place.
On one Of the floors, class was listen
ing to what the police termed a radi-
cal lecture, but all the students has
tened to inform the officers they were
learning English
When the prisoners with several
women, had been assembled, it was
found that many had received severe
beatings from the police, Several trucks
were used to carry away mass OF
radical literature found in the build
ing
"Are you a citizen Of the United
S,tates?" was the first question asked
each prisoner during the investigation
hurriedly conducted at the department
Of Justice Offices All who could show
proof of citizenship were released, while
about fifty who failed TO produce ere
lentials were held for further exami
nation.
Federal agents said following the raid
that several dangerous anarchists were
among those held and that some light
might be thrown on the bomb outrage
Of last June as result.

indianapolis, Nov. s.-Judge Ander-
son indicated he would issue the injunc-
tion asked by the government when he
held that miners and their agents are
guilty of conspiracy under the Lever
act if two or more agree to quit work
in coal mines.
The United Mine Workers of Amer
lea, through their attorney, Henry
Warrum, asked at the opening of the
United States district court to-day
that the injunction proceedings insti-
tuted by the federal government be
postponed a week or 10 days, in the
hope that meanwhile the coal strike
might be settled. The government,
through G. b. Ames, assistant attorney
general, objected, and the court there.
upon took up the motion to dissolve
the injunction. The government posi-
tion was that the, case was too impor
tant to admit delay.
The attorneys agreed that in ruling
upon the motion for dissolution Of the
restraining order, the court might also
rule on the question of issuing an in
junction as prayed in the petition filed
last week by the government
Mr.. Ames then offered atfidayits from
II. d, Spencer and Marion Underwood
Of the railroad administration at
Washington as TO diminishing coal sup
plies and diminishing financial returns
through operation Of the roads
"Taken together these affidayits
show said Judge Ames, that the
government is operating the roads now
at loss which will increase with di-
minution of supplies for operation
Judge Ames then read an affidavit
from Thomas i. Lewis, secretary Of
the New River Coal association Of
West Virginia This document de-
tailed the alleged violation Of union
contracts in that field Similar aflida-
Wits were offered, detailing alleged sim
liar conditions in Kentucky and Ten
nessee
Judge Ames then related the re-
establishment Of cert2in fuel admins
tration orders.
Il believe these are all the facts we
wish to present at this time said
Judge Ames. -
The defense thereupon started to
read its motion 70 dissolve in the form
OF an affidavit.
The document asserted the legality
of the strike call and that the sole OBJ
jeet was TO better the living conditions
OF the miners by increased wages and
shorter working hours This was ex.
planned as designed TO combat the gov
ernment assertion Of a conspiracy to
violate the Lever food and fuel control
act.
The affidavit cited the statute for
bidding issuance of injunctions in la
Dor disputes unless based upon destruc-
tion of property of the complainant.
The Lever act, 1t was argued, had be
come ineffective because the war had
ceased progressively" two of the cir
cumstances cited in this connection,
being that soldier members of the I'M
ion had been discharged from govern
ment service and that the coal mines
had been returned to their owners"
'1fhe union members, therefore, be-
lieyed that peace had come and that
the United States was no longer at
war, said the affidavit
The motion also argued that the re-
straining order was calculated to de-
stroy the right to strike and result in
dissolution of the organization.
This closed the evidence and Judge
Anderson then agreed with the attor-
neys that an hour and half be al
lowed each side for argument,
