Palmer Will Testify.

washington, Dec 18-Attorney
General Palmer will appear before
the Senate committee investigating
the coal situation Friday or Satur-
day, Chairman Frelinghuysen said
last night, after brief session of the
committee.
j. w. Dawson, an expert on coal
production and costs, who was the
only witness heard yesterday by the
Senate committee expressed the be-
lief that the present wages paid the
miners are sufficient and that "any
increases granted them must eventu-
ally come from the public's pocket"
Goal operators are not making big
profits this year." Mr.. Dawson said,
and in my opinion they cannot en-
tlrely absorb the IA per cent increase
which the government has allowed
| them"
Senator Frelinghuysen asked the
witness to suggest method of avoid
ing nationwide strikes such as that
just ended.
President Wilson and Attorney
General Palmer took the best method
when they started out to make the
miners union observe the Lever law
and call off the strike" Dawson re.
Piled.
But later they reversed that DO
slt1on," Senator Frelinghuysen said
Unfortunately, yes,y responded
Dawson.
! The United Mine Workers Unior
collects annually s11, 100000 in dues
Dawson told the committee and the,
ought to be held responsible for con
tracts.
You cannot have collective bar
gaining unless both men and employ
ers can be made to live up to thei
contracts" he added

ANDERSON BEGINS
INVESTIGATION
OF Attitude of Coal Miners
Toward the Order of
the Court
TO CALL OFF STRIKE

Indianapolis, Ind. Dec. 18.-A
Federal grand jury, summoned by
U. s. District Judge A. B. Anderson,
has begun an investigation of charges
of conspiracy on the part of the coal
miners and operators to limit the
production of coal. The charges
brought by the government alleges
violation of the Lever fuel control
act, a wartime measure, and of the
antitrust laws, which have been in
force for years.
The grand Jury was empanelled by
Judge Anderson and received in
structions from the court, to let its
conclusion be an answer to the ques-
tion whether the government of the
United States on group of men
shall rule this country, and whether
we shall be governed by law or by
force"
Judge Anderson referred to the
charges that miners and operators in
joint conference had reached agree
ments intended to wipe out competi-
tlon between union and nonunion
mines and recited that dues of the
miners are held out of their pay by
the operators and turned over to the
union. He declared that the courts
order for resembling the strike had
been complied with Gin form only, -
and instructed the grand jury to in
vestigate fully the defiant attitude
of the miners in refusing to head the
withdrawal order. The grand jury
was in session most of the day. Wit
nesses called included mine opera
tors.

nE...EEADERSHIP
OF TIE SENATE
is BETWEEN HITCHCOCK
AND UNDERWOOD. THE
LATTER DESIRES THAT
THE MATTER BE POST.
PONED UNTIL AFTER
THE HOLIDAYS AND THE
TREATY is OUT OF THE
WAY.

Washington, Dec. 18.-A call for
conference of the caucus of th@
Democratic Senate TO select a leader
to succeed the late Senator MartiM
of Virginia has been called by SenM-
tor Underwood of Alabama
In this contest for the leadership
between Senators Underwood and
Hitchcock, the only names before tho
caucus for the position, it is said
that the friends of Senator Under-
wood are in favor of postponing tha
selection of a leader on the ground
that they do not wish the question dc
the treaty of peace and the league OF
nations to be brought into the mat
ter. Senator Glass and other SenA-
tors are out of the city.
On the other hand, the issuanco
of the call by Senator Hitchcock's
manager is indicated to mean that
he is practically certain of his
chances, Notwithstanding the fact
that number of Senators are oue
of the city.

THE PACKERS AND

ENDEAVORING TO GET To-
GETHER ON A COMPRO-
MISE WHICH WILL STOP
THE PACKERS FROM
CON TR OLLING THE
WHOLESALE. GROCERY
BUSINESS. ATTORNEY
GENERAL SAYS NO DE-
CISION iii AS B z z M
REACHED

washington, Dec. 18.-The inves-
tigation between the meat packers
and the government, it became
known today, which has been going
on for some time, with the object of
compromising, is still in the state of
the grand jury investigation. It is
uncertain what form the matter will
take, but it is understood that one
of the plans is for the packers to quit
the wholesale grocery business,
which the Federal Commerce Com
mission has charged they were en-
deavoring to control, in violation of
the antitrust laws OF the country.
Assistant Attorney General Gar
vim, who has been in conference with
the counsel for the packers would
make no statement, while the attor-
neys for the packers intimate that
settlement is imminent
Attorney General Palmer said to-
day that nothing has yet been set
tied and that he had no statement to
make.
A number of side lines of the big
meat packers involving many mil
lions of dollars under the stipula-
&ions of the United States will be
eliminated, according to the state
uaent of Attorney General Palmer
zaade late this afternoon.
