Chicago, Dec. 4.-Another stand
still in plans looking to an end of
the soft coal miners strike marked
the 34th day of nonproduction in
most union mines as the government
prepared for a grand jury investiga-
ton at Indianapolis and prosecution
of miners, operators or others for
violation of the federal injunction or
for obstruction of production in vio-
lation Of the Lever act.
United States District Judge An

jury next Monday and Immediately
afterward a statement was given out
by United States District Attorney
L. Ert Slack and Dan w. Siinms,
special district attorney, who is aid
ing in the injunction proceedings.
declaring that the time has arrived
to determine whether this is a gov
ernment of law or. group of men. ;"
This morning six officials of the
United Miife Workers of America,
who yesterday were charged with
criminal contempt for alleged viola
ton of the federal courts Injunction
against the strike, appeared at the
federal building and furnished bond
of $4,000 each for their appearance
next Tuesday. They were John L.
Lewis, acting president Of the organ
ization; William Green, secretary
treasurer; Ellis Searles, editor of the
Mine Workers Journal; Percy Tet-
low, statistician, and Edward Stew
art and William Mitch, officials of
District No. II.
Other Charges Printed.
The charges against 70 other min
ers' representatives of violation of
the injunction were printed and GER
tilted today and copies were being
mailed tonight to all coust districts
in which defendants reside. 1t was
stated that as soon as this informa-
ton is received in the various dis
tricts, capiases will be issued for the
arrest of men named in the charges
and removal proceedings to procure
their appearance in court here will
be instituted.
The grand jury investigation,
called primarily to deal with charges
against coal operators, will cover
all phases of the controversy in the
coal industry and will be nation
wide in its scope, it was stated. The
statement of government attorneys
brought out that the investigation
was intended not only to furnish
relief in the present coal crisis, but
that the government expects to
prosecute all violators of the law
and will see that they suffer the
penalties provided by law. The
Lever law carries penalty of $1,000
fine or imprisonment not to exceed
two years in the penitentiary.
Say All in Conspiracy.
1t was stated that determination
to begin the grand jury investiga-
ton came as result of disclosures
in the proceedings against the min
ers' leaders, which tended to show
that the coal operators as we'll as
the miners were in conspiracy to
violate the Lever law.

WHOLE COUNTRY
PLACED UNDER
COAL RATIONS
Flow of Appeals to Re-Estab-
lish Fuel Administration
Shows General Alarm.

Washington, Dec. 4.-The country
as whole now is involved in coal
rationing measures which have been
proposed to exc out supplies short
ened by the nationwide strike of
bituminous mine workers.
The flow of appeals to the re-
established fuet administration
showed general alarm over the sit
uatlon. Middle western territory,
where the shortage has become
acute, through representatives in
congress today demanded the east
ern seaboard and New England be
compelled to share surplus supplies
and live up to restrictions on power
and light consumption as drastic as
those effective in the west.
Senator Cummins, republican, of
Iowa, announced after consulting
the fuel administration that he had
obtained an increase in the allot-
lnent of coal to Mississippi valley
states. Louis w. Hill, chairman Of
the board of the Great Northern
railroad, representing northwestern
consumers, made a plea for better
distribution of coal resources at the
head of the Great Lakes, visiting
both the railroad and fuel admins
trations.
Agree to Pay More.
Meanwhile the responsible heads
of the larger coal mining concerns
of the country in second day of
general conference here announced
that they had agreed to pay miners
an additional sum of II cents per
ton for coal mined, basing the fg-
ure on conditions in thin vein areas
and thereby fixing a scale practi-
cally for the entire country.
This more than carried out the
proposal of Fuel Administrator Gar
field that the coal miners be given a
IA per cent advance without increase
in the selling price of coal, they as
serted, because average figures
showed that an advance of 1886
cents per ton would meet the re-
quirement.
Proposals were made at the final
session that the mine operators
adopt an aggressive policy of fight
ing the strike by resuming produce
ton on an "open shop" basis, but
