government with ths miners and mine
owners has been set for II o'clock to-
morrow morning at the Board Of Trade,
and meantime all questions of action
by the railway men and transport
workers, who together with the miners
form the triple alliance, have been
temporarily suspended.
The general feeling is that the trou-
BILE about pumping is due to suspicious
harbored by both sides, but that it is
not serious enough TO prove a perma-
nent obstruction to negotiations. There
is no cessation Of the precautionary
measures taken by the government,
however. or by the miners, transport
workers and other labor bodies TO be
prepared for all emergencies.
Tho various conferences Of the par
tics concerned are being retained In

''COusin Everett's''
Indictment Asked
BY u. S. Prosecutor
Witnesses Go Before jury at
Chicago TO Tell of Career
of Self-Styled Kin of Har.
ding; Checks Are Offered
Special Dispatch to The T-;bun,

CHICAGO, April 6-All Of "Cousin
Everett" Harding's spectacular career
es President Hardngs "kinsman and
assistant secretary" was recited to the
Federal Grand Jury this afternoon
when government officials presented
witnesses in an effort to obtain his
swift Indictment on the charge of i'm
oersonating Federal officer.
The prosecution sought to show that
Cousin Everett" with no other asset
than his name, imposed himself on
business men, club members and poll
ticians as one who welded great in
fuenco IN the White House. A sheaf
of alleged bogus checks and a bundle
Of photographs were presented as evil
dence
Meanwhile, others may say what they
will about young Harding, but there are
at leaot two men in Chicago who will
never believe other than that he is
actually related In some way to the
President. And these two, A. Nelson
and A L. Hoffman, have perhaps more
reason than any others to regret their
acquaintance with the eager young
politician, for it has cost them, they
say, their candy business. which they
. value at SO 900 to $4,000.
In their deserted store on the North
Side Nelson and Hoffman to-day told
how Everett had come to them early in
January with plan for a coast-to-
COS st cham of candy stores to feature
Che Harding Bar" as a nationwide
confection
Hoffman and Nelson yielded. Their
steady trade was interrupted by the
journey to Washington for the inau-
guration They returned to find that
their regular customers had deserted
them. And then came the big awaken
ing. Still they do not blame young
Everett Harding particularly.
He probably was relying on the
promises of somebody else, just as we
were relying on his promises" Nelson
explained, "and they failed him."
Paul Corkell, assistant probate judge,
listed as q member of the party that
went in cousin Everett's" private car
to the inaugural ceremony, denied to-
day that he was in that car except for
brief visit to see Pearl, "the White
House baby" He attended the cere-
monies, he said as a member of The
Hamilton Club.

Tbs strike Of marine workers en-
ployed on tugboats operating along the
Atlantic and Gulf coasts was settled
yesterday.
At a conference with the towboat
owners and Secretary Of Labor Davis
at Washington tine employees agreed to
accept the reductions of approximately

The cut was accepted, however, on con-
dtion that the old wage scale existing
on the former agreement, which ex-
pired on December 81, be restored on
May !, and continued pending the adop-
ton of new agreement between ocean
steamship employers and employees. 1t
is also provided that all licensed deck
and engineer officers are to be rein
stated to their former positions with
full seniority rights.
Despite the adjustment of the tow
boat trouble, the real shipping crisis
will come on May 1, when the steam
ship people have announced their in
tention Of putting into effect reductions
said to range from IL to 80 per cent
The seamen say they will oppose the
cuts and threaten nationwide ship

Development of
Water Power
Flou n. Brown Tells the
Public Service Committee
Those Who Advocate the
Plan Are ssHare-Brained"
Cities Also Lack Funds
Saws No One Will ''Run Away
With Anything by Terms
\ If Gibbs Adler Bill

AYgANY. April achievements for
...ts and municipal water power devel-
.,nent and distribution were char
..+er;zed to-day as "hars-brained"
.,eories by Elon R. Brown, formerly
ns,oritv leader Of the Senate, during
.ho hearing to-day before the Senate
pnbrc Service Committee on the Gibbs
sa,ar Water Power bill. The measure
,s,ries out recommendations made by
covernor Miller in his message urging
~. development Of the states water
rower facilities by private capital, but
under the supervision of the State Pub
H. Service Commission and a State
Water Power Commission.
The opposition to the measure came
chiefly from various commercial COM
NAMES now developing water power,
who fear that the measure may impair
their rights. They we're told by Senator
Browna who appeared as the represent
silva Of Attorney General Charles D.
Newton. that they need have no sppre-
tensions In this direction as their
rights are fully protected under the
terms Of the measure.
senstor Brown, who drafted the bill,
.sksd the committee not to act on the
measure ut once. as he has several
minor amsndm ents to submit. He said
thess were prepared By the counsel to
the Governor.
To Remove Obstacles
sThere seems to be fear in certain
quarters that development of the water
power in the state by private capital
might result in greater private ad-
vsntage than in public advantage" he
said. There Is no danger of that The
measure meets the recommendations
Governor Miller made in his message
in which he urged water power develop
nent by private capital for the benefit
Of the people Of the state. Nobody will
be able to run away with anything.
All the companies will be under the
supervision Of the Public Service Com
mission in respect to capitalization,
service and rates
This measure intends to remove the
obstacles which in the past have seemed
20 prohibit water power development.
1t removes them in a conservative and
careful manner. 1t does not propose
state ownership and development. for
the reason the state is not financially
able to carry out such work nor can it
DO It efficiently. The arguments of
those who favor municipal ownership
are ridiculous and misrepresent the
truth, and l am not here to lend my
support to anything which would
further postpone the Harvesting of the
