.OWAT IN POLITICS
Kansas Miner Chief to Devote
Time to Electioneering.
Declares Strikes Cannot Solve
Kansas Labor Problem.


Columbus, Kan, July 9.-As a pro-
test OF the conviction and sentence of
Alexander Howat and August Dorchy,
heads of the mine workers union in
this district, all coal mines in Kansas
were idle today. The loss in produc-
ton of coal since the conviction, union
officials stated, has already reached
600, 900 tons.
Howat today issued an appeal to the
miners to return to their jobs state
ing that stopping work would not solve
the miners problems in Kansas.
Addressing over 5000 miners at
mass meeting in City park late yester-
day, after sentence had been passed
upon him, Howat charged a con-
spiracy existed between the chambers
of commerce and the corporations to
break labor in this country.
The idea was conceived two years
ago, he said, at the convention of the
United States chamber of commerce
at Atlantic City to unite under one
head all the basic industries of the
country. The entering wedge. he as
serted. was the Kansas Industrial law,
and thru such legislation. Howat
charged, it was hoped to break the
back of labor.
Politics instead of strikes must be
employed to solve this problem, Howat
said, and he announced that he would
henceforth devote his time to cleo
tioneering in Kansas in an effort to
combat what he termed outrageous
and unfair legislation against the
union WOrkmen

CLUB WOMAN DIES MAY UPSET GAMES
in "BIack SOx" Case
From Many Clubs.
Trial Halted Until Monday
Four Jurors Accepted.


Chicago. July with four jurors
accepted and sworn in and two others
ntatively accepted. proceedings in
the trial of tho ball players and all
legged gamblers accused in the 1919
world series scandal, were halted to-
day until Monday. Press of other i'm
portant court business made it neces-
sary for Judge Friend to continue the
case.
The list of the witnesses to be called
by the defense will resemble a roster
of major league baseball. according to
announcement by Henry A. Berger, a
leading attorney for the defense.
Berger had asked subpoenas for every
member of the 1919 White Sox club
and will also ask that every member
of the 1919 Cincinnati team which
won the series be summoned. The
umpires who worked in the 1919 world
series likewise will be asked to ap-
pear
Berger announced that his purpose
in calling the players is ito prove by
the teammates of these players there
was no crooked playing"
Inasmuch as several of the players
who were with the White Sox and the
Reds in 1919 are now members of
other clubs in both major and minor
leagues and many are mainstays of
their outfits, issuing of wholesale
subpoenas for players is likely to han
dicap seriously several clubs and may
diSarrange the playing schedules

FOR OPEN SHOP
Pennsylvania Lines Refuse To
Be Bound by Rules. =
VIII Conduct Negotiations With
Workers "On own"

Chicago, July 9.-Union officers and
observers of the trend of affairs in the
railway labor situation today regarded
the action of the Pennsylvania rail-
road in openly declaring it would
conduct its own negotiations with its
employees on an "open shop" basis as
presenting serious obstacles to the
harmonious settlement of the railway
labor controversy.
Attempts are being made by officials
of the various railway labor organiza-
tions to bring about conferences with
September 1, at which definite agree
ment as to working rules and condi-
tions will be reached. The unions
have made acceptance of the wage
cut which became effective July 1,
contingent on a satisfactory outcome
of these conferences.
Other Roads May Follow.
Refusal of the Pennsylvania to con-
slider itsef bound by any rules or or
ders of the United States railway Ia
Dor board or the federated shop crafts.
it is expected. will cause other roads
to adopt a firmer stand against bar
gaining with the labor organizations.
The Pennsylvania made clear its at
titude late yesterday when represen-
tatives of the shop craft on the Penn
syIvania charged before the United
States railway labor board that rules
of the board were being violated by
that road. E. T. Whittier. counsel for
the Pennsylvania, replied by criticiz-
ing openly, several rulings of the
board and ended by declaring I'VE will
conduct our negotiations in our own
way"
''Pu sit on the lid no matter how
long it takes, just SO long as can ac-
complish anything, but when the
Pennsylvania railroad comes here and
defies this bbard and flouts it's au-
thority, I can't sit any longer" was
the warning of trouble ahead given to-
day by B. NJ. Jewell, president of the
railway employees department of the
American Federation of Labor. Jewell
declared there was not a "closed shop"
on any railroad in America.
