100000 MINERS
QUIT WORK AS
WAGE PROTEST

1877 MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED "InEl
Wilkesbarre, Pa, Sept. 2.-The
anthracite industry was esriously
crippled today by the strike of in
surgents in the ranks Of the United
Mine Workers of America. 1t is
estimated, according to early re-
ports that 100000 of the 10000
anthracite workers failed to report
for duty today as a protest against
the recent wage award and that
$50 of the 800 colleries in districts
/, Z and 9 were in idleness.

the vacation period of the miners

and equitable peace and has not
altered her attitude in consequence
OF her victory. Poland has not
made war on the Russian nation,
and has the most sincere desire to
live on peaceful and friendly terms
with her eastern neighbors.
1.-THE Polish government. how
ever, has the honor to draw the
attention of the United States to
the circumstances that the provi-
sional eastern frontier laid down
by the peace conference has not
been respected by the bolshevik
government, In spite of the dip
lomatic Intervention of our allies,
the Red army has for whole
month advanced and ravaged ter
ritory which is admitted by all as
being ethnographically Polish.
Faced Danger Alone.
Notwithstanding the sympa-
thetic attitude OF our allies, the
Polish nation had to face the dan
ger alone, and political events
proved that 1t must in the first
place rely on Its own military
strength. If military operations
neoessitated the measures to pre-
vent n renewed invasion of Poland,
it could hardly be considered fair
that artificial boundaries that do
not bind one opponent should in
tertere with the military opera
tons of the other.
However, the Polish govern
ment hopes a speedy and just
peace will put aside any difficult
ties which might arise in the case
of further war. 1t is very graft
flying for the Polish nation to feel
that in the efforts to arrive at a
just peace 1t has the support of
the United States governments
sympathetic attitude"

COVE RNNENT To
PROSECUTE 324
WAR CONTRACTS
Department of Justice To
Start Criminal and Civil
Actions In Effort to Clean
UP Controversies.

10y MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED HREl
Washington, Sept. 2.-Prosecut-
ing of 924 contractors. marking the
beginning of move by the govern
ment to clean up its war contract
controversies, has been ordered by
the department of justice. The pro-
ceedings will include criminal and
civil action and involved millions
of dollars department officials
said today.
Practically all OF the cases EN-
braced by the prosecution order
were turned over by the war de-
partment. but there were indica-
tons similar cases would be re-
ceiyed from other departments.
The shipping board is understood
to be planning to request criminal
prosecution in half dozen cases.
Many Contracts Involved.
Contracts on which action will he
pressed were said to involve
amounts ranging from a few
thousands to q few millions" They
include agreements for the furnish
ing of supplies of many commodi-
ties, construction of camps, can
tonments and warehouse and other
facilities for the training of the
army.
Preparatory to instituting legal
proceedings in most cases, the gov
eminent has started rechecklnS
of its data and figures, planning to
pursue the investigation into the
records of the firms and individuals
whose contracts are questioned.
This work will require several
months.
Officials expressed belief that al
though the war department had
failed to reach an agreement, many
controversies would be settled out
of court. The war department abol-
ished it's fraud and graft investigat-
ing section some months ago ana
its facilities for making necessary
inquiries in most cases were linz
tied.

of the contract settlements in dis
pute, there was the belief that
"honest mistakes" had been made
by the contractor or sub-contrac-
tor and that an investigation of rec
ords would produce grounds on
which adjustment could be easily
made. 1t was said that in other
cases, however, ''plain fraud and
conspiracy had been proved SO
clearly that no other course was
open except direct action looking to
Indictment.
Robert Scott, assistant to the at
torney general, said 1t would be
the policy of the government not 10
deal leniently with the fraud cases.

Tells Pittsburg Audience That
Republican Bulletins Supplied
discriminating Data.
DISPLAYS QUOTA LIST s
Cities Were Levied Upon By Re
publican National Committee
For Huge Campaign Sums.
(sy Associated Press,


Pittsburg, Aug. 26.-Information to
support his charges that a Republican
campaign fund exceeding SIS, 200, 900
is being raised in conspiracy to buy
the presidency, was presented by Gov
ernor Cox in addressing a public
meeting here tonight.
The data consisted chiefly of mat
ter taken from the official bulletin of
Fred W. Upham, Chicago treasurer of
the Republican national committee, but
the chief exhibit was a typewriter
list Rurporting to show that Repub-
lican campaign quotas were imposed
on 81 cities in 27 states, aggregating
So, las, 900.
Names of local Subscribers, the gov
ernor said, were ordered kept secret.
These quotas were given as $2.000,-
900 from New York City. $75o.OOO from
Chicago. 100000 from Philadelphia,
and ranging on down to $4,000 from
smaller cities like Buffalo and Att
lanta.
1t was said by Cox to have been an
nounced in July that Harding was
familiar with the details of the quota
plan, and that it was approved by
Chairman Hays, was charged by the
governor.
letin, Cox quoted many reports from
lRepublican workers throughout the
country who reported that they were
going over the top Contrary to his
previous announced intention the gov
ernor added that he intended to pass
the evidence to the senate investigat-
ing committee.
Announcement of the $S,145, 900
metropolitan quotas, the governor
said, was made by Harry Blair, assis-
tant treasurer Upham at a meeting
held at Chicago at which Chairman
Hays spoke his blessing.
The governor charged that the type
written sheets bearing the quotas
were distributed to those assembled
and produced the alleged quota lists
that were reputed to be an attempt to
raise $S,145,0 900 from 81 cities as fair
evidence that the total national fund
would be much larger than that which
was charged by Cox
Governor Cox asserted that big
business men were prominent on the
Republican ways and means commit
tee and were raising funds an a busi-
ness craftsmanship basis. Standing by
his charge that an attempt to pur-
chase the presidency was being made,
Governor Cox declared that the sena-
torial oligarchy and its friends was
barking back to the days of Mark
Hanna.
'T charge again an assault on the
electorate is being made" the COVER
nor said. 'It can't be hidden that the
hosts are marshalled. that money and
ammunition is being prepared, but it
will not succeed, though the net is
spread in pursuit of the quarry"
