Washington, Jan. 5.-The Virginia
coal miners who say their families
are starving have appealed to Presi-

tory of this statement by Governor
Morgan of West Virginia that there
is no starvation among the miners.
The lodge at Marfaul, w. Va, says:
AT the meeting of our local union
here the miners instructed us to ap-
peal to you for financial aid to sup
port their wives and babies. Why
the mines are not running we are un-
able to say. The majority of the
miners, numbering about 200. are in
destitute condition, some not having
la meal ahead or means of obtaining
such. The only hope we have of ward
ing off the intense suffering is by ap-
pealing to the federal government
