this afternoon was paid when his
body was laid in Columbus cemetery.
Representatives of the judicial dis
trict and the state, which he served
so long in judicial capacity, gathered
in large numbers in the spacious
home in which the services were held.
An immense wealth of floral offerings
was in evidence.
The services, conducted by Rev.

simple The burial service of the
Episcopal prayer book was said, with
prayer by Rev. Bryant c. Howe, dis
trict superintendent of the Methodist
church; lesson from the prayer
book; the reading of passages from
two OF Judge Posts favorite poems
and prayer and benediction by Rev.
Mr. Blaker. There was no music and
no sermon. At the burial prayer was
offered by Rev. J. w. Little of Madi-
son. many years ago pastor of the
Presbyterian church in Columbus
The committal service from tho
prayer book was read by Rev. Mr..
Baker.
Excerpts from the poems read by
Rev. Mr.. Blaker during the service
were passages which Judge Post had
marked during his reading a short
time before his final illness. From
their nature 1t would almost seem
that he had a premonition that death
was near.
Court affairs in all the six counties
of the district in which Judge Post
presided were practically suspended
today, while nearly so members Of tho
district bar journeyed to Columbus
to attend the last rites.
Judge Broadly Of Lincoln was here

.Pinchot to
Try to Halt
Strike
Operators and Miners Will
Hear Pennsylvania Cover
nor at Joint Meeting
Today.
Scheme Is Kept Secret
By Universal Service.

Dy lulVeTbhi StINicc.
Harrisburg, Pa, Aug. 2S.-His pro-
gram formed for averting the i'm
pending anthracite coal strike, Gov
ernor Clifford Pinchot of Pennsyl-
vania tomorrow plans to make an
attempt to bring together officials of
the United Mine Workers Of America
and representatives of the anthracite
operators.
The governor tonight asked both
delegations to remain in Harrisburg
throughout tomorrow. promising to
reveal the plan he has to suggest
some time during the day.
Plan Kept Secret.
No intimation came from either
faction of the dispute as to what this
plan might be.
It was generally believed at the
state house, where the governor has
held executive and confidential ses-
sions with the operators and miners
during the last two days, that a
program of arbitration will be sug-
gested.
Governor Pinchot. it is believed,
will first ask pledge of the miners
10 keep the mines of the anthracite
field in operation during the period
Of negotiation.
May Advance Wages.
The governor. 1t was believed,
would suggest to the miners that
they accept a small wage increase.
The figure Z IL per cent has been
discussed by those known to be close
to the governor. The miners are now
asking a 20 per cent wage increase.
On the other hand. it is quite gen.
orally known, the governor will ask
the miners to abandon their demand
for the "check-off.'
Should these two questions be set
tied by agreement. the remaining
points at issue. including the eight
hour day, could be settled without
difficulty, both miners and operators
have stated on past occasions.
The miners and operators are both
in a position to take immediate action
on anything Governor Pinchot may
suggest.
