Senator Harding Bids Good Bye Senate
 Official Life
[RepubIlcan A. P. Leased wlrel

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.--To put into practice his doctrine of consultation and good understanding among public officials, President-elect Harding spent today at the capitol taking stock of the legislative problems that await the new session of congress and in turn seeking the cooperation of congress sional leaders in the tasks he will con- front as chief executive.
 Adding unique page to the nations history. he attended as a senator the opening of the senate and in a short address bespoke for the coming four years a spirit of team work between executive and legislative branches that he expects to insure the highest na- tional efficiency in public affairs at home and abroad.
 Later after conferences with leaders of both senate and house, he announced that he probably would call a special session of congress soon after his in auguration to attempt a revision of the nations tax schedules. Both in his private consultations and his address in the senate he asked that the three months remaining to the present con- gress be used without attempt at par tisan advantage to clear away routine and lay the ground work for conserv- ative legislation after March 1.
 Foreign relations and the league oi nations were discussed by Mir. Harding along with domestic problems and pos sible cabinet selections in his Ions string of conferences with senators and
 representatives.
 The ranking national leaders of his party outside of congress also were present at the consultations, which will be continued most of tomorrow. Last Appearance as Senator
 With his departure for Marion late tomorrow afternoon the president elect will bid goodbye to actual par ticipation in the proceedings of the senate, although he will retain his title l and office until early in the new year

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-The Lehigh Valley railroad case the second and last of the great anthracite coal anti
 aJ4 1Uoa1 ue government.
 The supreme court in the unani- nous opinion of the seven members participating held that the existing combination of the railroad and its principal subsidiary companies was in violation of the sherman antitrust act and, reversing the lower court. or dered entering of a decree dissolving the combination and redistributing it's stocks, bonds and properties So as to make each component part in fact in dependent and competitive
 Specifically named in the order of dissolution were the Llehigh Valley railroad company, the L4ehigh Valley Coal company, the Lehigh Valley Coal Sales company, Coxe Brothers and company, and the Delaware, Susque- hanna and Schuylkill railroad com pany. The court dismissed the bill so Middle Coal Field Railroad and Coal company, the c. B. Merkle company, the Girard Trust company and indi- viduaI defendants including the late George F. Baer, Daniel G. Reid, Eden B. Thomas, Lyman D. Smith, E. T. Stotesbury, c. F. Baker and other of ficers and directors of the defendant companies prominent in the financial and railroad world.
 Justices McReynoIds and Brandeis took no part in the consideration of the case it was announced
 The opinion of the court, as read by Justice Clarke, sustained in unequivO cal language practically every conten- tion raised by the government in its brief It was held that the Lehigh Valley railroad through the coal com pany of the same name and other sub sidiaries monopolized the production transportation and sale of anthracite coal from mines located along its lines; that this monopoly was sus- tained through illegal preference to the subsidiaries and that the organiza tion of the coal sales company was in i fact a mere device to circumvent the | so-called commodity clause of the in terstate commerce act which forbids 1 a common carrier to transport coal 1T which it has any interest.

Governor Of West Virginia Replies
 To Miners Report
 On Mingo Strike
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel


 CHARLESTON, w. Va, Dec. c. Governor Cornwell, in a statement to- lay replied to the criticism of the in ternational executive board of the United Mine Workers at Indianapolis which took issue with him for calling federal troops into the strike area.
 The statement in today's newspa- pers, and alleged to have emanated from the international executive board, United Mine Workers at Indianapolis, s lying propaganda" said the governor.
 The assertion that there is a 'pri-
 ate army of gunnen' employed in Mingo county is without the semblance Of truth.
 Since the tragedy at Matewan in May, when employees of the Felts De- tective agency were assassinated, no employees of that or any other concern. so far as I know, have been in the strike region, except to pass through on a train, or to appear at court. If there are. they are not guards, but secret operatives. Nor have any other armed guards been employed by oper- ators. so far as I can learn
 These things they agreed not to dc following the Matewan tragedy I promised to protect life and property in that region to the best of my ability and they promised to employ no pri- vate guards.
 T have tried to make it plain that I have no part in the fight of the United Mine workers to organize Mingo county fields. I am intereste' only in preventing civil war and ir ending the murdeBs and sniping, i1 stopping the dynamiting of property and the lawlessness. It was for thai purpose that I brought back fedora troops.
 "The troops are helping to collect guns and clean Up the situatitn. A soon as they complete this work they will be withdrawn"

LIBERAL CREDITS RESOLUTION WILL BE PRESENTED IN
 CONGRESS TO-DAY
Agricultural C o m m itte eI
 Chairman Will Ask Inn Mediate Consideration Of
 Joint Resolution
LRepublIcan A. p. Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6--Revival of the war finance corporation, and ac ton by the federal reserve board per hitting extension by banks of "liberal' credits to farmers would be directed in a joint resolution drafted late today by the senate agricultural committee. The resolution will be presented to the sen ate tomorrow by Senator Gronna of North Dakota, the agricultural com mittee chairman who will ask for i'm mediate consideration.
 Members of the committee drafting the resolution expressed confidence that enough votes were assured to bring about it's prompt passage but members of the finance committee in- dicated that they would ask that it first be referred to them for consider ation inasmuch as the war finance cor poration was created under a bill drawn by their committee.
 Restoration of the war finance cor poration to furnish financial aid to farmers also would be directed in a con current resolution presented today in the house of representatives by Byrnes. Democrat of South Carolina. The senate agriculture committee decided 10 represent resolution as a commit tee measure, hoping thereby to save time. With unanimous consent under the senate rules the resolution could be read twice in one day and placed on the calendar for passage.
 S1nator Norris of Nebraska, member of the agricultural committee, first proposed a concurrent resolution which does not require approval by the presi- dent, but other members objected on the ground that such a resolution would not be strong enough. While not anticipating tita action of the pres ident. Democratic senators made cleal their intention of voting to override ( veto if necessary.
 The senate committees resolution declares that unprecedented and un. paralleled distress exists among thu farmers because of their inability [, market their products at prices equal ing the cost of production and that tn, people of Europe are in "dire need" O these products but not able to purchas because of existing financial condi tions The resolution further recite that banks have been unable to exten' credit to farmers so they may hol' their products until they can be sol in a fair and reasonable market Then followed the resolutions direc tions which declare:
 "The secretary of the treasury an, the members of the war finance corpo ration are hereby directed to reviv the activities of the war finance cor poration and that said corporation b. at once rehablitated with the view O assisting in the financing of the ex portation of agricultural products L foreign markets.
 The federal reserve board is hereb directed to take such action as may b ne.cessary 10 permit the member bank ~ the federal reserve system i'm ac cordance with law and consistent wit sound banking, to grant liberal exten sion of credit to farmers of the countr upon the security of the agriculture products now held by them permittin the rediscounting of such note of ex tension. at the lowest possible rate of interest"

HARDING CAB|NE I. B|G QUESTION IN
 POLITICAL GOSSIP
TRepubllean A. p. Leased WlreI


 WASHINGTON. Dec. 6-Speeulation about the possible cabinet selections for the incoming administration was east into more definite lines today by between President-elect Harding and leaders of his party III and out of congress.
 Three names which stood Tn the foreground tonight among the many discussed as possible cabinet members were those of John w. Weeks of Mas sachusetts. for secretary of the navy; Will H. Hayes of Indiana, the Repub- lican national chairman, for postmas- general and Harry M Daugherty of Ohio. the Harding pre-conventlon manager, for attorney general.
 Prominence also was given by the days conferences to the possible se- lection of David Jayne Hill of New York. former ambassador to Germany. IS secretary of state, although such leaders as Charles Evans Hughes, Elihu Root, Senator Knox, Senator Lodge, Senator Fall and others still were prominently mentioned for the portfolio in some quarters.
 Regarding the other places in the new official family, gossip was less definite and the list of possibilities was widened rather than narrowed by the days developments.
 That no formal offers had been made was emphasized by MT. Harding himself tonight as the only comment he was willing to make on reported selections or on his discussion of the subject with Republican leaders
 No place has been offered to any one." the president elect said. Be vond that I can only reply to Ques- tions about the cabinet with a sweep ing assurance that I have nothing to say"
 MT. Hays. Mir Daugherty and MT. Weeks all were present at today's conferences with Mir. Harding on this and other subjects. Throughout the campaign these three were among AIr Harding's closest advisers on questions of policy, all having been members ot the Republican campaign committee
 Another close friend of the presi- dent elect who took part in the con- ference was former Senator George Sutherland of Utah. Heretofore his name has also been associated witt cabinet gossip but today the impress sion gained ground that he woulj prefer some other appointment eItheI in the diplomatic service or in the supreme court.
