w. P. G. HARDING IS NO
 LONGER CANDIDATE TO HEAD RESERVE BOARD

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-The name Of W. F. G. Harding has been elim- mated from those now under consid- eration for appointment to the gov ernorship Of the federal reserve board, 1t was said today by high official of the treasury. It was said that MT. Harding, a former board governor. would enter private busi- ness.
 The former reserve board head it was stated. has let President Hard ing know that he does not desire his name to be given further considera- tion. While never an active candi date. Governor Harding was repre- sented as having been heretofore willing tG again take the governor ship because of attacks which had been made on him.
 Tine domination of the new gover- nor is expected to go to the Senate soon. since elimination of MT. Hard ing's name is regarded as likely to facilitate a selection. Nc reason for the decision of the former governor to step aside was given at the treas ury, although 1t was emphasized that MT. Harding never made an active effort to secure e-appointment to the place which he had filled con- tinuou sly since the creation Of the re- serve system.
 MT Harding is said to have several business propositions under consid- eration, each of which would take him back into private enterprise. It has been reported that he will be- come associated with an oil company as the executive head of the cor poration, but no definite statement Is yet available concerning his plans.

DEFENSE WITNESSES
 BLAME MINE GUARDS| FOR RIOT AT HERR|NI
By Associated Press

MARION, H., Jan. 4-Declaring that the first shots fired in the Her rin riots were poured from a hidden machine gun at the strip mine where the trouble started as a peace able crowd approached theN pit. wit nesses at the trial of five men charged with murder today slowly unfolded the defense's version of the tragedy which cost the lives of three union and 20 non union workers.
 The armed guards stationed at the mine when it was re-opened during the coal strike last June were pie tured by witnesses as domineering and arrogant men who swaggered about armed with high powered rifles. steel jacketed bullets, hun dreds of deadly hand grenades. pis- tols and a machine gum.
 The guards were declared to have deliberately sought to intimidate everyone, either by threats, boasts of their powers or stories of what they would do if attacked. Other wit nesses asserted the guards were fearful of being attacked and seemed to be trying 10 avert it by instituting reign of terror.
 Three of the IS witnesses heard today, John c. Baker. Grover Kelly and Nelson Meadows, aE of whom are union miners, testified that they had seen a gun placed in position on top of the mine dump early in the afternoon of June 20 and concealed. They agreed that the first shots fired at the mine that afternoon came from this gun.

COAL CONFERENCE lS' ADJOURNED WITH NO. AGREEMENT IN SIGHT
By Associated Press

CHICAGO, Jan. 4.4Failure to find any common ground on which to base future negotiations for working 3 probability here tonight as the con- ference Of operators and miners from 15 bituminous districts adjourned after two days in which no real progress has been made.
 With the failure of special joint committee, appointed to cC Cnsider the operators proposal of district O. group settlement. to agree, the con ference will resume tomorrow proD- ably the last day of the session, no nearer the object of the meeting than when it opened in Cleveland last Octobe,.
 The proposal made by the operators that each district be made a sep arate wage scale-making body with the privilege of groupings with any ether district or districts, as n.Sht be agreed upon, was rejected in com- mon by the miners On the ground that this matter had been fought out and set led in the strike A similar resolution, carrying with it arbitra- tion and d sliding scale. was reject ed by the miner representatives of the reorganization committee when it met llere December D.
 Proba 5ility of ever assem bling as representative a gathering of bitum- inous coal operators and miners, if this Fifteenth District conference disbands without accomplishing it's purpose, was declared by many to be remote.
 Nothing was offered either by miners or operators in answer to the message of John Hays Hammond, chairman of the coal fact finding commission, urging the continuance of operations under recent conditions for one year should other proposals fail

ruling, was begun in the supreme court.
 The federal coal commission, in a telegram to representatives of coal operators and miners confer ring in Chicago, urged continuation until April 1, 1924, of the present wage scale, in the event of failure to reach any other agreement.
 Coincident with the arrival here of the British debt commission, con fidence was expressed at the treas ury that an early agreement would be reached on the funding of Great Britain's debt to the United States without radically changing the debt funding law.
 President Harding, Ambassador Harvey, who is home from London, and Senator Lodge, at brief con ference discussed the Robinson res olution proposing American repre- sentation on the separations com mission, Senator Lodge later calling meeting of the Senate foreign relations committee for considera- tion of the proposal.

Resembling an order issued some time ago. Commissioner w. B. Cloe instructed the city comptroller's de- rartment Thursday to issue rooming cuse and hotel licenses for the time being without permits from him. Licenses were issued to a number of hotels during the day. it was said, and one had been issued without permit Wednesday, before the ban was lifted.
 Commissioner Cloe said he woul1 let the war time measure rest, until amendments proposed by the legal department are adopted After that time, he said, he might require those who have obtained licenses to get per .nits from him and pay the $1 fee.
 Receipt blanks had been printed by order of Commissioner Cloe and are now in his office. Cloe had frequent ly declared his intention of enforcing the war time measure to the letter.

G0SLIN SEES BUSINESS. ON LARGE SCALE WITH
 CUBAN SUGAR HOUSES.

Business in sugar house machinery with Cuba this spring holds excellent prospects. according to Julius Goslin. head of the firm of Joubert & Goslin Machinery company, large manufac- turers of sugar house equipment.
 MT. Goslin expects some Cuban business to come quite soon, but does not look for really good business be- fore April or May. "It will take some time for the planters of Cuba to realize on the present crop" said MT Goslin. "They are now grinding and shipping this years yield, but they must receive the returns on deliv- cred goods and liquidate past indebt- edness before they make really new start. They cannot be expected to recover in q moment. However, the prospect of substantial machinery business with Cuba beginning in April or May is very good"
 MT. Goslin does not believe the 1923 business with Cuba will so much take the form of new mills as the improvement of mills already in op- eration, installation of additional machinery and the like. Cuba is far behind on needed sugar house equip ment, having been out of the market on account of financial difficulties for more than two years.
 Birmingham is headquarters for Cuban sugar house construction and equipment, having made and shipped the bulk of machinery used there for many years. In the last sugar house building boom jobs of as much as $4,000,0O0 came to Birmingham and were divided among several manu- facturers. The Birmingham Machine and Foundry company, the Hardie- Tynes Machine and Foundry com pany and Joubert & Goslin all cater to this trade and the Ingalls, Iron works has furnished the fabricated steel for numbers of Cuban sugar mills

SWIFT RIVER WATERS
 BEING DRAGGED FOR KELSO BRIDGE VICTIMS.

KELSO Wash, Jan. 4.-Dragging the swift waters of the flooded Cow litz river and checking lists of miss ing persons, Kelso today tried to determine accurately the toll of life taken last evening when the snapping of cable of the old bridge between here and West Kelso caused col lapse of the bridge
 The list of persons known to be missing as a result of the collapse here was increased to 22 tonight with the addition of five new names. thus bringing the total of dead and miss ing who are believed certainly to be dead to 22. Two men died today ot injuries received in the crash.
 The name of Emil Johnson a con tractor. who came recently from California, was added late today to the missing. A brother of Allen Pennell also was reported missing.
 George c. Mcdonald of Van Couver. Wash, who was dragged from the river shortly after the crash. and Harry Kirk of Kelso, wso was in jured. died today.
 Eight boats patroiled the river be- low the collapsed span dragging for bodies. One body was drawn to the surface.
 Cranes worked at the mass of wreckage which stretches across the channel marking where the old bridge had stood
 Several automobiles were extricated from the mass, lifted by the cranes and placed on boats.
 An investigation of the cause of the disaster will begin soon.
 It was considered probable that persons not yet reported as missing had lost their lives. as transients and strangers were considered almost cer- tain to have been on the bridge when it collapsed. A chec:l tonight of the list of dead and missing, according to the authorities show the names ot several non-res idents.

ALLIES NEAR THE POINT TOUCHED ON BY HUGHES
 

WASHINGTON. Jan. 4.-The disoIu- tion at Paris of the conference of allied leaders was regarded here as bringing the reparations crisis meas urably near the point touched on by Secretary Hughes in his recent New Haven speech. Although the allied statesmen have failed to agree, there still stands before them an alterna- tive to attempted forcible collection in Germany pointed out by MT. Hughes.
 There was no word from official quarters today to indicate any fur ther initiative was to be expected now from Washington. The only author ized comment was a statement at the state department that Mir. Hughes
