Jack Dempsey may pretend that
he's going to England to box ex-
hibitlons with Beckett, Wells and a
few other champs and ex-champs
across the sea. but this Is the low
down. Jack Is going to hunt for
some quiet sport whore he can learn
the fine art OF golf. Whenever he
appears on n golf course in this
country he Is followed by such a
crowd that he can't put his mind on
the game, and Dempsey's chief am
bition, aside from holding tho, old
title, Is TO knock a golf ball farther
than anyone else can.
Jack can't see why a world 8
champion fighter shouldn't be able
10 paste a little rubber pill at least
half n mile. His efforts, to date
merely result in giving the bah an
awful gruelllng. He has a notion OF
a championship match with Babe
Ruth, when he comes back TO Amer
lea. Ruth Is another champion
whose personal inclinations lead to
golf and II looks as !C Babe would
have plenty Of time for practice this
spring.

GALLUP MINERS
+. ASK OPERATORS
+. FOR CONF ERENCE
Strikers Offer to Negotiate
In An Effort to Settle
Trouble; Invitation lg-
nored BY Owners.

Especial Correspondence 10 The JOURNAL
Gallup. n. M. May l9.-Gallup
local No. 3,55S of the United Mine
Workers of America, has mado pub
lie statement that on April rs the
Union sent a proposal for a con-
ference to the coal operators of the
Gallup district. 1t is reported by
the miners that the rumor became
current that the operators were
spreading the propaganda that they
had no information as to the rea-
sons for the strike and therefore
were unable to give consideration
TO any matter that might lead to a
solution Of the present situation.
The miners have received no re-
ply from any of the operators stat
ing that they were favorable or I'M
favorable to such a conference. 1t
is not known whether or not the
operators have conferred with each
other in regard to holding such Il
conference with the miners.
A number of the independent
operators included in the list have
appeared personally to the officials
of the union and have expressed
their willingness to comply with the
demands of the union.
4 number of the smaller opera
tors. which includes the Gallup
Southwestern mine, which is the
largest producer of the smaller
group, are handicapped from maxi
ing any agreement with the unions.
because their entire output is pur-
chased by the larger companies.
For that reason it is impossible for
them TO make an agreement with
the union unless 1t is sanctioned by
the big producers.
Following is the communication
from the miners to the operators:
Gallup, N. NJ, April &c, 1929
Dear Sirs: Your employees now on
strike have decided on conference
with the representatives of your
company in order to bring about
o settlement of the present strike
situation. We fully believe that
this conference is necessary in Or
der that the existing misunder-
standing between the coal opera
tors and their working men may
be clarified.
ut seems that coal operators as
listed below have intimated that
they would also like a settlement
of some kind that would be suitable
TO both parties and that sooner or
later we will have to get together
TO arrange for such suitable
agreement, whereby to satisfactor-
fly resume work under some sys-
tenn Of cooperation which can be !
established into the mines for the |
benefit of all concerned.
kindly consider this matter |
closely and let us know If you favor
this suggested conference and at
What date we can expect you to |
meet us. Trusting that this matter |
will meet with your approval, we |
are,
Every truly yours.

accused men--posing as boastful
fellow mail bandits.
The bearded man, 1t was snid,
succeeded in getting himself
"counted in" on the proposed city
hall station holdup, and talked 1t
over in detail with the others In
the supposed den which he had
wired with telephone devices.
The seven captives taken last
night we're confronted with tram
scripts OF the telephone record
early today in the presence OF the
bearded inspector and some are
alleged to have confessed.
Much Data Gathered. IL
Much data on their earlier oper<
ations already had been gathered
and recorded by the telephone de-
yice--at Boosting tests set In mo-
tion by the thrilling stories of mail
banditry told by the bearded gen
tleman," as his robber friends
called him.
So completely were the mail
robbers taken In by their new
found pal that Inspector Doran
said today he could recount almost
every step taken in the July 10
Liberty bond theft.
The chief actor in this theft, he
said, was Morris Steinberg, a 19-
year-old clerk in the registry de-
partment. Steinberg, according to
tho inspector, had some means---as
vet undiacovered--of ascertaining
when valuable packages were to
come to the postoffice from the
federal reserve bank.
He knew in advance of the bis
shipment of Liberty bonds which
was made on July is. and laid the
pouch aside when 1t was delivered
Took Pouch TO a Closet.
A few minutes later, 1t is alleged,
he took the pouch to a small closet
ON the third floor where Edward
Fogel, a confederate, had been
hiding for several hours. Tossing
the pouch into the closet. he
strolled nonchalantly back to his
post, leaving Fogel to rip It open,
extract the package of bonds and
slip quietly out of the building.
Steinberg was suspected at the
time, but care was taken to make
him think he was not, and a short
time later occasion was found to
drop him from the service for
minor infraction of the rules.
The inspectors continued to
watch him, and four months ago
the bearded gent" managed to
serape an acquaintance at the con-
foctionery store he and Fogel had
opened.
Takes an East Side Room.
Taking a room in the lower east
side as his "hangout" the inspec-
tor installed speech-recording
instrument and invited them to
visit him. 1t was not long until
he had met the other five men al
legged TO be members of the gang.
and was swapping stories with
them about the mail robbing ex-
ploits-while fellow inspectors re-
corded the conversations in an adj
joining room.
Finally the gangsters let the
bearded gent" in on the city hail
