INDIANAPOLIS. Ind, Nov. "A nationwide strike of coal miners seems inevitable if the operators heed the injunction by Judge A. B.

A telegram from the national head quarters of the United Mine Work CTS advised union officials of the dis continuance of the check off as breaking the existing wage agree ment which "shoulG be treated ac- cordingly by district officers and To- cal unions"
 The trouble started oyer tho action of Judge "A. B. Anderson on last Monday. who issued an injunction al. recting the United Mine WOfkers to stop their efforts to hfldniss hthe Williamson coal eields in West vir- ginia. The ground given was that the union was sbeeling to restrain trade. sass48F A AssaAf @EessSsis The court did not deny the right 'pf the workers toi oreadizey but held the miners efforts In West Virginia were in furtheranc6 of conspiracy with the operators in disorganized fluids to shut off competition in non. union mines.

storm broke in the ives. with bril-
liant flashes Of "forked" lightning,
deafenins claps of thunder and a
torrent OF rain.
