vealed a break on fundamentals. The
republicans will NOT agree to settle

which involve their admission that the

There was an almost complete

the difficulty.
The attempt at army unification also

out, probably Wednesday.

WHEAT JUMPS

IN PIT BATTLE
Coterie Favonng High
er Prices Marshals
Orders, Wins Clash.

Chicago, May IA sharp round il
the struggle which apparently has beer
going on for some time between two
powerful opposing groups in the wheat
trade here was won Thursday by q
coterie favoring higher prices. The
net result was that wheat available for
delivery here this month jumped in
value rs cents a bushel.
An emergency rule which went into
effect Thursday morning had seeming
ly opened way for at least the tenn
porary discontinue of the bulls, the
traders whose interest at present was
in rise of values. The rule provided
that for May delivery, and wheat in
cars on railroad tracks here could be
rendered instead of wheat stored in
elevators. AS this made larger divi-
setback in prices might follow, the out
come was looked forward to with much
interest.
Considerable tension was evident in
the wheat pit at the opening of busi-
ness for it already was known that the
amount of wheat delivered on May
contracts Thursday had totalled rough
ly 10 times more than had been the
case "a hours previously. For a few
moments the clash of forces in the pit
looked like a drawn battle. Prices,
instead Of breaking as many had been
expecting, showed slight gain. Then
the market trembled and dropped
slightly.
Numerous buying orders. affording
strong support for prices, were quick
ly Forthcoming, however, and for the
rest of the day the market went almost
straight upward. assuming unusual mo-
mentum just before the close, and fin
ishing at race-horse speed. Last prices
reached for May were S1.45 to S1.45H
the topmost of the day, but lacking
AS cents of the high record for the
season.
At night it was pointed out that the
current month is yet far from ended
md that additional big deliveries, if
steadily continued. might lead to a very
iifferent finale. Nevertheless, no pos
sible question remained as to which
side won Thursday

NO VIOLENCE
in COAL STRIKE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT SAYS PRO
DUCTION MUST NOT BE INTER-
FERED WITH BY STRIKERS

Washington-(A PA warning
from the federal government that 1t
will tolerate no use OF violence TO
prevent coal production during the
threatened coal strike was issued to
day by Attorney General Daugherty,
who declared that he was making no
threats and believed that a man or
a set of men have a right to strike In
an ordinary way, but that they do rot
have the right to interfere with those
taking their places.
The attorney general is said to not
believe that the government will have
to wait until there is an actual coal
shortage before it takes action. His
theory is, he explained, that since fuel
is an indispensable part of transpor-
tation, the government had the same
power to act in the case Of coal Hlo-
duction that it would have in the
event OF any interruption of the ra-
tion's transportation system.
without celebrating on his state
ment, he predicted that any action by
the government, in connection with the
coal strike, will be a little further
step than has been taken by any
other country, little more drastic
and little more specific.
Labor Federation Will Cooperate
New York-(A. P)-The nation
wide coal workers strike, set to be-
gin April 1, will be prosecuted with
the fullest and most effective cooper
alton of the American Federation OF
Labor, it was announced here today,
after a visit to the mine officials by

of the American Federation of Labor.
