SENATOR TAKES EXCEPTION
 TO SUPREME COURT RULING

WASHINGTON. D. C.. Jane B. Declaring that the decision of the supreme court of the United States in the Coronado coal case, which was handed down this week, is most ominous in what it foresha- dows for union labor in this coun- try, Senator La Toilette, of Wis consin, made a statement here yes terday in which he criticises the jurists in no unmistaken terms.
 The senator declared that the opinion is significant because of what the court says on questions not involved in the case rather than because of anything actually decid- ed" He asserted that the court went out of it's way 70 berate the United Mine Workers, characteriz- ing the members as outlaws and murderers.

 The Bache-Denman Company and
 eight subsidiaries, five of them oper-
 ating companies, closely allied by corporate ownership, all located in Prairie Greek Valley, Arkansas. had
 a group of mines in Arkansas which had been operated as union mines until March, 1914. when two of them were closed temporarily, preparatory to reopening with non-union labor. The Coronado mine had contract with union labor which did not ex- pire until the following July. but two days after one Of the two closed mines opened with non-union miners in April, the union workmen of the Coronado mine struck. Disorders and violence immediately followed, com polling all the mines to close. a ban ner being erected bearing the in- scription: This is union mans country. ." ...-...:. ..-:.......
 Work was resumed under an in junction, and there was no further trouble until the night of July 14, when an armed mob surrounded the non-union mines. The mine owners charged that arms and ammunition were purchased by the secretary of District 21, upon a check signed by the president of the union. At daybreak one Of the mines was at tackled, several of its employees killed others driven away, the mine dyna- mited and flooded, buildings de- stroyed and car load of coal set on fire. Attacks upon other mines, including the Coronado, followed. It was not until October that further attempts, which also proved unsuc- cessful, were made to operate the mines. In November Federal troops arrived. In the meantime the leases of the coal companies had been can celled and receiver appointed.

companies Of Arkansas instituted in the U. s. district court for Arkan. sas, civil proceedings against the ! United Mine Workers to recover treble damages under the Sherman act for property losses suffered by them during a strike in the Arkan-
 sas coal fields in 1914. The coal companies alleged that the United Mine Workers had unlawfully con- spired to suppress non-union com petition, and that the destruction of the property had been resorted to with attendant restraint of inter state commerce, to accomplish that end. The decision of the court, dis missing the suit, was set aside by the U. s. circuit court and in the same court, on second trial, before a different federal judge, the jury found that the destruction of the mine property was due to a con- Spiracy to prevent the mining of coal by non-union labor, and had re- suited in a restrain of interstate
 commerce. The jury placed actual damages at s300,000, which were trebled by the court, under the Sher- man law. The award, affirmed by the circuit court of appeals, was brought to the supreme court by the labor unions on the ground that being incorporated, they could not be sued
 The conspiracy was alleged by the Arkansas mine owners to have been an outgrowth of the standard wage scale and hours of labor conferences held by the labor leaders and the mine operators in the Central Com petitive Field, beginning in 1898, during which the union miners had impressed upon them the importance of removing the competition of non union mines. l. was asserted that the operators at these conferences en- phasized that unless the competition was removed, wage scale and hours of labor agreements could not be maintained. Union labor was called upon al these meetings, it was said, to formulate a policy for reducing the competition, and announced that the non-union mines would be union ized or closed.
 This decision by the United Mine Workers constituted a conspiracy, 1t

M'CUMBER PRESENTS BONUS:
 DEMOCRATS BLOCK ACTION

NASHINGTO-', D. C., June 8- The soldier bonus bill was formally presented in the upper house of Congress today, but efforts to place the measure on the calendar for future consideration were blocked by Democratic leaders.
 Taking advantage of the senate rule requiring unanimous consent to place a bill on the calendar, Sen a.or Harrison, of Mississippi, pre- vented progress of the bonus bill beyond presentation and, when Sen ator McCumber announced that he would make another attempt later in the day to place the measure on the calendar. Senator Oscar Under wood, Democratic leader, declared that he would block +Io bill. He ex- plained that he would be glad to have the bill lay over until after the November election so that the people of the country might have a chance to voice their sentiments.
 Senator McCumber explained that he hoped that reductions in the ex- penses of the Government, plus the interest payments on the foreign debt, would prove sufficient for the financing of the bonus without the imposition of additional taxes.
 In presenting the bill to the sem ate, Senator McCumber submitted a a report in which he placed the probable cost to the Government at $3,845, ,659, ,481, with the payments spread over a period of forty-three years from next January. This is approximately two hundred and fifty million less than the estimate under the house bill, which spread the pay ments over a period if twenty years

was charged, which became unlawful when the acts of the labor leaders to suppress non-union competition failed to unionize the mines, and re- suited in acts of violence which caused a restraint of interstate commerce.
 Union leaders throughout the pro- ceedings asserted that labor unions had been declared by the Clayton act to be exempt from prosecution as illegal combinations or conspir- acies in restraint of trade". They in- sisted that 1t was legitimate for them to remove non-union competi- ton when possible by strikes aimed to extend their organization. If they had been guilty in 1914 of an un- lawful conspiracy under the Sher- man law, the suit against them had been improperly brought, they as serted, because the coal operators of the Central Competitive Field had not been joined with them as de- fendants, although they had been equally as insistent and active at that time as the labor organizations in having all mines unionized.
 The destruction of mine property during the Arkansas strikes was not due to conspiracy, the labor unions insisted, but was beyond their con trol, being an uprising of the en- tire countryside in protest against depredations alleged to have been committed by non-union workers and by reports that women and children had been insulted and at tackled by armed mine guards. Off, cers of the United Mine Workers protested that the strike had not been called, indorsed or financed by them but was under the jurisdiction Of District 21, and that their failure to discipline union miners partici- pating in the strike, or repudiate alleged unlawful acts of their mem bers, did not make the national or ganization liable under the Sherman law.
 The coal companies asserted that the national organization and none of its branches at no time took any action to expel, suspend or disci- pline any of it's officers or members, although its national treasury had
