PREDICTS SUCCESS
in SENATE JOUST
Congressman Riddick Comedies
His Nomination; Gives OPP
pOnents No Chance.

Thoroughly confident that he will be
the republican senatorial nominee when
the August primary votes are counted.
Congressman Carl W. Riddick arrived
in Great Falls Thursday evening from
his home in Lewistown where for the
past two days he received reports as to
the progress Of his candidacy. He will
spend today in Great Falls and will
leave tonight for the northern part of
the state.
Mr.. Riddick said there was no ques-
ton but what he would be successful
In the primaries. Reports he has re-
ceived from all counties in the state.
he said, indicate that there is but
little sentiment IN favor of the candi-
dacy of Wellington -. Rankin. whom
he regards as his strongest opponent;
that the campaign of Charles n. Pray
has virtually collapsed and that J. c.
F. Siegfriedt will receive only a scat
tering vote.
Believing that the strength Of his
candidacy lies mainly in the fact that
he has pledged himself as a supporter
of the Harding administration. Mr..
Ridick said it was absurd to think that
republicans of Montana. almost to a
man.. will not stand back of Harding
policies.

BREAK PRICE AGREEMENT.

Washington. Aug. 1O.-Action OF
Alabama coal operators in breaking
away from the voluntary fair price
agreement resulted Thursday in a spe-
ciai meeting of the federal control dis
tribution committee being called by
Secretary Hoover to discuss the situa-
ton, which officials regarded with ap-
prehension.
Attorney General Daugherty has
ruled that priority orders for coal is
sued under classification No. ] of the
interstate commerce commission have
preference over other orders which on
orators may have on their books, said
an announcement Thursday by the
federal emergency coal committee.
Classification No. ] is the provision
giving primary consideration to ship
ments specially designed by the inter

is desired to preserve the integrity of
contracts as far as possible "the feel

a measure take secondary position

coal necessities created under an
exigency which has arisen since such
contracts were entered into"
The total emergency coal require

CONvICTS MAY NINE COAL

Indianapolis. Aug. 10.-Drastic ac-
ton on the part of Governor McCray
to obtain production of coal from the
two strip mines at Staunton. Ind.
which have been placed under pro-
lection of state troops, appeared i'm
minent today as a result of the failure
of the operators to obtain sufficient
men to place the mines in operation.
Although state troops have been on
guard at Stanton more than a week.
practically no coal has been mined on
account of the failure of the operators
to get skilled workmen. 1t seemed like
ly today that the governor would or
der complete control of the mines
placed in the hands of Major General
Robert Tyndall, in command of the
state troops in the field. In this con-
nection, the use of convict labor in
the mines was frequently mentioned.
Warden f. j. Fogarty of the state
prison. and members of the board of
trustees Of the institution were at the
state house today. 1t was stated the
officials were in Indianapolis in the
regular business of the prison, but
their presence gave rise to reports
that prisoners might be sent to Staun-
ton.

Lewis Makes Optimistic Prediction as Confer
ence at Cleveland Is Resumed; Operators Of
Many States Present.; Settlement Would Result
in Resumption Of Work in IS Per Cent of Mines

Cleveland, Aug. 1O.-(By The Asso-
ciated Press.)-The policy committee
of the United Mine Workers of America
Thursday voted to proceed with the
negotiation of a wage scale agreement
with the operators Of Ohio and western
Pennsylvania. Indiana and Illinois. who
are here for the joint conference that
was called with the view of breaking
the soft coal strike.
In announcing the committees deci-
sion. President John l.. Lewis of the
miners said:
Il confidently predict that when 2
scale is made here that Is per cent of
all the bituminous tonnage now on
strike will sign the scale and return to
work within a week.
Settlement of the strike in the an
thracite regions which also have been
shut down since April 1. when the
miners walked out. would naturally
follow" the resumption of work in the
soft coal industry, Mr.. Lewis said.
Refusal of the Indiana and Illinois
operators associations to join the con-
ference. he said, would make no diff
ference" in proceeding toward making
an agreement. He asserted that the
miners had definite assurances that
important producers of these two
states would accept any scale decided
on by the conference.
After predicting that three-fourths
of the soft coal mines closed By the
strike would be opened within a week
after a settlement had been negotiated
here. Mr.. Lewis asserted that the
miners have won their fight and it is
practically over
There is no longer a thought in
any quarter" he said. that wage re-
auctions will be imposed in the mining
industry. The question now is one Of
procedure. without undue humiliation
of the operators. We have no desir,
to humiliate them. We want an i'm

MEXICO TELLS
Of KILLING 0F
ANOTHER ANK
Newspaper Accounts
and Government Re-
port Are at Variance.
Decisions of Mexican
Court Do Not Protect
Oil Lands, Charge.

Washington. Aug. 1O.-The killing O.
another American in Mexico was re.
ported officially to the state depart.
ment Thursday by the American consul
at Torreon, but the story told by the
dispatch was at wide variance with
newspaper reports of what apparently
was the same incident.
Consul Donaldson's telegram said the
man killed was GUY Marks of Column
bus. Ohio. and that &. F. Martin of San
Antonio. Texas. had been wounded. The
dispatch added that the attack on the
two men took place last Friday night
at Mapimi, Durango. and was credited
TO bandits who were being pursued by
local authorities.
Newspaper advices Wednesday from
Torreon to Mexico City had given the
dead mans name as Thomas Martin
and had said that Guy Marks was seri-
ously injured. According to this story.
miners from a ~neighboring camp were
responsible. and the shooting was said
to have taken place Sunday neal La
zecatera. Cohuila.
Rulings Do Not Protect
htpdI tHitil olIlfldIS were pn1Pav0r-
ing to further confirm the consul's dis
patch and to secure additional details.
Formal announcement that recent
old land decisions of the Mexican su-
preme court do not. in tive opinion of
officials here. effectively protect the
rights of American land owners. was
made Thursday in a statement issued
by the state department.
The five court opinions mon which
some Mexican officials have based a
hope of recognition for the Oregon
regime were said in a statement to ap-
parently establish a precedent protect
ing improved oil lands from confisca-
ton. without furnishing the same guar
antee for land in which mining opera
tons had not been actually begun.
1t was pointed out that in each of
the five cases decided, the privileges
granted to the owners of the lands had
been translated into positive acts"
which. it was said, the court ap-
interpreted as a protection
retroactive application of the
article 81 of the Mexican
constitution. The decision did not.
however. pass upon the retroactivity Of
the article as applied to undeveloped

The state department. in making
public its opinion, also pointed out that

to register its inspection of the OBJ
article by the passage of an
appropriate statute TO carry it into

organization of the states during the
emergency with representatives estab-

Besides Minnesota and Wisconsin.
the states represented were North and
South Dakota. Montana. Michigan. and
Iowa. The conference was called by
Governor Preus. who declared the stu
alton called for prompt and decisive
action.
Governor Preus told the conference
that railroads serving the northern
lake states mines and Lake Erie points
have improved their service and he

federal government operate these roads
might well be postponed for a few
days. pending further Developments"
The supply of coal al the head of

Governor McMaster. of South Da-
kota, said the situation in that state
was startling" A survey of South

MI. Beier arrived in Great Falls Sat-
urday. He said he was not in a posi-
ton at present to state whether a
labor shortage will have the effect Of
retarding the harvesting of Montana's
crop. A large number of men, he said,
are expected from the west but the
labor movement from the east will
likely not reach Montana for awhile,
because of the fact that North Dakota
is harvesting a large crop.
