DR.. Troxell, who is one Of the ma

able discoveries of recent years. He
it was who unearthed the missing

the horse of today. His specimen

Mueseum at New York. He also
uncovered three specimens Of the
cloven footed horse just few weeks
before he came to Ontario, in the
Bridger Basin, Wyoming, he found
the remains of a nine foot alligator,
thus proving that once that section
was either tropical or semi-tropical.
DR.. Troxell spent most of his time
while here in the hills seeking speci-
mems to add to his collections, and
next year plans on returning to Ore
gon to explore the John Day region.

Operator Ogle Says Charge That
Companies Forced Strike
Is Absurd.
(sy The Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, April 1.-The ma
ton wide coal strike went into effect
today without causing a ripple, so far
as could be observed, in the admins
trative operations Of the government.
No statements were forthcoming
from the White House and administra-
tive officials generally had nothing to
say.
Congress, however, marked the open
ing of the strike with a continuation
of hearings on the Bland resolution
for appointment by the president Of a
commission to investigate the coal in
dustry, and with statement by Borah
that unless the coal industry was re-
organized in the interest OF the public
it would be up to the public to try
the experiment in public ownership.
The hearings on the Bland coal COM
mission resolutions included the views
OF the operators as presented by Alfred
NJ. Ogle Of Terre Haute, Ind, vice
president of the National Coal asso-
ciatton. Mr.. Og1e declared that
charges that the operators had forced
the strike in order to sell surplus coal
stocks were absurd. Practically all of
the coal on hand. he said. Is in the bins
OF the consumers who have bought
and paid for it.

believed was an attempt to sink their
boat during their visit to the British

A short time after their arrival in
Nassau, the American consul there
warned them to be on their guard, they
declared. Two hours later while cruis-

Conference in Nassau resulted IN

The British government also will in
vestigate the rectification of Cuban
alcohol into doctored liquor to prevent
its sale to Americans.
American agents at several ports,
including Havana and Nassau, to-
sether with fast chasers, in my opin-
