DAUCHERTY AND
HARDING CONFER
At WHITE HOUSE:
Government in the Future
May Have Proposals to
Submit to Miners and
Operators, Report.
(By The Associated Press

washington, April 14.-Upon
leaving the White House after a
conference with President Harding
today, Attorney General Daugher-
ty said he had gained an impress
sion that preliminary and local
conferences, were now going on
between local unions of coal min
ers and operators in btuminous
fields. He intimated that he had
received this impression from con-
tact with different parties on his
recent trip to indianapolis, visit
occasioned by his desire to get in
touch with legal aspects of the gov
ernments prosecutions aimed at
miners union officials and coal
operators charged with violating
antitrust laws.
White House officials later dis
cussed briefly the coal situation
and intimated that the government
might in the future have propo-
sails to submit to the conflicting
parties.
President Harding and his ad-
|ministration at this moment, it was
added, had no serious apprehension
about the situation. 1t was pointed
out that the price of coal had not
advanced and that the temper of
all parties had not been irritated.

HARDING WOULD HAVE
AMERICA REPRESENTED
AT MARITIME PARLEY

Washington, April 14.-Recom-
mendation that an appropriation
be made to permit American rep
resentation at the international
conference on maritime law to be
held at Brussels, was made today
by President Harding in a letter
to the senate. The appropriation
asked was $4,000.

omy, chemistry and other sci
ences is prosecuted.

TEMPERANCE MOVE
STARTED IN AUSTRIA
IS REPORTED GAINING

Vienna, April l4.-The temper
'ance movement recently started in
Austria is gaining impetus, at least
in publicity. 1t has served to
arouse the liquor interests who
have held a big meeting in oppo-
sition and attempted to refute the
Figures officially published Of the
country's immense booze bill.
The government has agreed with
the social democratic proposal to
make a start by making the sale of
liquors to youths unlawful. A
measure is in preparation but some
disagreement has resulted over the
question of age limit. The social
lists wish TO place it at 1S years.
The Arbeiter Zeitung, official So
cialist organ, has replied energet-
ically to the charge of the opposi-
ition which is their principal card
that prohibition in the United
States has resulted in greatly in
creased criminality. The news
paper prints American statistics of
empty prisons, of prisons and COR
rectional institutions for sale, in
creased savings, bank deposits and
similar propaganda.

COUNTRYWIDE
SEARCH BEING
MADE FOR GIRL

Especial Correspondence 10 The journal
wagon Mound, n. NJ, April
IA country wide search is
being made to discover the
whereabouts Of a three and a
half year child who, it is
claimed by her guardians, was
lost Monday afternoon about
) O'Clock in a canyon about
four miles east of town. The
father of the little girl lives
here in wagon Mound, but
upon the death of her mother
9h rtly after the child's birth,
he gave the li;tle one to the
family of Enrique Maestas to
rear, aud it was with this fam
lily She was living when she dis
appeared.
According to one of the
stories told by her guardians.
Mr.. and Mrs. Maestas, had
come to town early Monday
afternoon and left this little
girl with an eight or nine years
old girl tending a herd of
goats. The older girl said that
she noticed the child sitting on
a rock talking to a man and
that she had to go OUT of sight
for few moments to round up
some OF the goats that were
wandering away. When she
returned, she says the child
was gone. Upon the return OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Maestas late in
the evening, their children told
them they were tired, as the
little girl was gone and they
had been lool ing for her all
afternoon. Searching parties
started out Tuesday morning
and have been diligently
searching ever since, but their
efforts have been unrewarded.
Blood hounds were put on the
trail Wednesday afternoon,
but were unable to pick it up.
Every foot of territory covering
a considerable radius has been
comhed, but not trace of the
child has been found.
The chiId's sweater was
picked up about .wo miles
from the house, but no Jthor
clue of any description can be
located. Searching parties are
still at work, and the people
are considerably agitated over
the child's peculiar disappear
ance.

FORMULA FOR PSYCHIC SCIENCE
Seen AS CONAN DOYLE ARRIVES

New York. April IA Especially -
| The visit to this country of Sir Ar
thur Conan Doyle. author of the
Sherlock Holmes stories and one
of the leading exponents of spirit
Iualism, has drawn new attention to
the study and discussions of psychic
phenomena. In speaking OF his
forthcoming lectures on psychic
phenomena Hamlin Garland. the
well known author, says that many
of the conclusions reached by the
famous English investigator prac-
tically agree with his own. "On one
point we are fully in accord" he
remarked. I'VE are convinced that
science is still unable to explain
many phases of psychic phenom-
ena. We also agree in asserting
that these phenomena should be
the subject of careful study by men
equipped for the work.
The objections Of chTchmen to
the investigation of so-called spirit
phenomena" says Mr.. Garland,
"are in my opinion unwarranted.
Their branch of study is theology.
while the study of psychic phe-
nomena is purely q matter OF sci
ence. / make this assertion with a
good knowledge Of the facts, hav-
ing been an investigator myself for
over twenty years. Moreover, ]
consider psychic investigation to be
one of the most important branches
of science, because it has to do
with human life. 1t has been re-
garded in certain quarters as some
thing 10 avoid and as belonging to
the realm of darkness. That, how
ever, / deny. 1t belongs to the
realm of chemistry and psychology.
Unknown Forces Surround Us.
II believe that we are surround
ed by unknown forces and the sell
entific problem, it seems to me, is
not whether spiritualism is true or
false, but whether metaphysical
phenomena are real or imaginary,
Some future Newton will probably
discover a more complete formula
than ourselves, but in the mean
time every natural fact should be
studied. and. if it be real incor-
porated in our patrimony of knowl-
edge.
"In the death-like trance OF
genuine medium an unknown force
is apparently exerted in some cases.
objects are moved at a distance
and voices are produced from a
horn. Naturalization also appar-
emily occurs, although it is impos-
sible to say how it is effected. |
am only ready to maintain that
there is something profoundly mys-
terious in all this which may ulti-
mately change from top to bottom
our ideas of nature and of life.
Katie King Case.
"Among the instances of materi-
alization investigated by scientific
men Is the celebrated case of Katie

duced by the medium. Florence

Il made absolutely no reference
to the coming of the military. The

be connected with this alleged ref

mention the military. but in this
section of my sermon l spoke with
appreciation of the successful
cleanup of bootleggers and prosti-
tutes. made the night before by the
municipal authorities under your
direction. A cleanup about which
we had been in conference, as vou
well know. for many months. Never
throughout my whole sermon did L
mention the soldiers and the reasons.
or lack of reasons. for their coming
to Gallup. SO far as / know. or can
learn, the action OF the governor
in declaring martial law in Gallup
is absolutely without a shadow OF
reason. Acts of violence may have
occurred in Allison, although only
one such act has been reported to
me, but certainly nothing has hap
pened in the town of Gallup that
would justify such action.

A. C. AAs0N, NOTABLE FIGURE
I'M BASEBALL FOR MORE THAN
SO YEARS, DIES AT CHICAGO
End Comes Suddenly After He Was Believed
to Be Well on the Road to Recovery Follow
ing An Operation Performed Monday; Sport
Loving World Plunged Into Mourning.
rBy THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Chicago, April h.-Adrian C.
Anson, for more than half CEN
tury one of the notable figures OF
baseball, died today at st. Luke's
hospital after a weeks illness and
Just two days before his SEVENTEEN
birthday.
The death Of Pop" Anson, as
he was called by the thousands of
baseball followers who have known
him as one of the legendary heroes
of the national sport, came sud
denly after it was believed that he
was well on the way to recovery
following an operation performed
last Monday. He had been stricken
on the street Sunday. '
Mr.. Anson's death has placed the
sport loving world in mourning, for
Pop" not only was beloved by
every person interested in baseball,
but was admired for his manliness
and squareness by all true sports
men. His ability on the diamond,
where he was looked on by old
timers as the greatest of first base
men, brought him admiration for
his great skill and physical-prowess
while his sportsmanship brought
him the respect Of all.
An Outdoors Lover.
"Pop" was an outdoors lover up
to the day he was stricken, turning
to golf when he no longer could
handle a baseball. His confine-
ment in the hospital was very irk-
some and each day he would I'M
patiently ask his doctor:
when do | go home. Doc?"
He always followed this with an
insistent request that he be per-
mitted to go home for his birthday
Monday, and was greatly cheered
on the occasions when he was told
this might be possible.
Pop" Anson saw baseball form
ed, virtually, and watched It's prog
,ress through all the stages to the
present time. AS boy in his teens
he played his first contest at a
time when the game really was the
old "rounders" and was just start
ing in the process of evolution
which brought it to the point Where
it is the delight OF nearly every
OuUSSltl anu thO iio -
pastime. He played first WIN
Marshalltown, Iowa, later going 10
Rockford, ILL.,, where he was a
teammate of the late A. G. Spalu-
ing, the great pitcher. In the early
seventies he played with the Phila-
delphia Athletics, the Chicago Ma
tionals. and it was with the latter
club that he reached the pinnacle
Of playing ability which still STANDS
out in the history of baseball.
Work as n Player.
"Pop's" great work as slugger'
fielder and leader brought him rec
ognition as the first baseman
chosen by Spalding for the myth
cal all-time all-American team, the
players being selected chiefly on
their statistical records.
In the early eighties he became
manager of the Chicago team ana
in winning many pennants became
known for his fairness and strict
ness as a disciplinarian.

fights and the numerous occasions

CARRIERS FIGHT
FOR PUBLIC AND
AGAINST It, SAY
Railway Clerks Present
Their Defense Against
Wage Decreases Sought
Before Labor Board.
(By The Associated Press.l

Chicago, April 14.-Railroad
managements were declared today
to be fighting for the public be-
fore the railroad board in Chicago
and battling against 1t in Washing
ton before the Interstate COM
merce commission, when the rail-
way clerks presented their defense
against wage decreases sought by
the carriers before the labor board.
1.-THE carriers are now arguing in
washington that a rate reduction
cannot he made on the basis OF
wage reductions" declared II. Fl.
Fitzgerald, president of the clerks
union. Before this board they
promise to translate wage reduc-
tions into rate decreases. They are
fighting for the public here and
battling against it in Washington.
"They are similarly arguing that
such rate reduction would not
stimulate traffic, while here their
first and primary assumption is
that reduction in wages would be
felt in rates, resulting increased
traffic. Wage reductions in the
past resulted in dividend increases:
a reduction now would probably
have the same result, to Judge by
the attitude of the carriers before
the commerce commission"
Mr.. Fitzgerald interspersed
numerous exhibits with attacks on
the roads, which he declared
would push "our men one step
nearer an animal existence to pro-
vide incomes for the railway own
ers," If they succeeded in obtain
ing another wage cut.
Among the exhibits shown was
one giving earnings since 1895.
when the average annual salary of
n railroad clerk was $71G.79. The
average for 1920 was S1,595, an
increase OF 1g1.5 per cent. but
meantime the cost of food. the ex-
hibit showed. had increased EOS
per cent. while the purchasing
power of the dollar decreased III

they never seemed to me to be COM
pletely developed. In most cases
they lacked a foot or a hand or
eyes, although the features might
be clearly visible. Many were frag-
mentary, like those in the Schrenk-
Nothing photographs which were

zines some time ago. Others were

fugitive forms that rapidly passed
away. OF course it is easy TO infer
that If form existed under certain

might very well exist for three

is what Sir William Cookies main

the form of Katie King"

play. This trait was carried with
him to the golf links where he has
been a familiar figure in recent
years. He always, observed the
many rules of golf etiquette and in
sisted that those about him do the
same. There are few types of the
local public links who have not
received one of "Pop's" famous
"bawling outs for moving. talking
or violating some rule of etiquette

shots.

Water has risen above all
