JAIL FOR P ART
IN VOTE FRAUDS
Grand Jury Seeks Morris
Eller

One thousand election judges and
clerks face prison sentences for their
part In the vote frauds that were
committed during the April 10 pri-
maries.
Special States Attorney Lloyd D.
Heth has been selected by the Chi
cago Bar Association to conduct the
prosecution of those involved in bal
lot-box stufing. The Illinois Supreme
Court ruled several weeks ago
that Judge Jarecki could impose pun
ishment on those involved without
granting them jury trials. Contempt
of court charges for not carrying out
his instructions to count the ballots
in accordance with the laws are to be
made.
Sanitary District Trustee Morris
Eller, boss of the Goth ward and union
smashing States Attorney Robert E.
Groves right-hand man is being
sought by special grand jury investi-
eating vote frauds to tell what he
knows of the $4,000 votes that were
stolen in his ward. Eller is in Mack
mac Island vacationing. When he is
found he will be asked to sign an i'm
munity waiver so that the grand jury
may indict him.
Eller's "a precinct captains are to
appear before the special grand jury
today. They will all be asked to sign
immunity waivers.
Investigators searching for the
books OF the goth ward republican
organization controlled by Filler have
declared that whatever books and re.
cords may be found will be of little
value to the grand jury as records
and books of the Eller organization

mage shipped in the past month. 1t
is convinced, however, that the total

Soab Coal.
Gas Goals are the chief item in this
new export of fuel. They can be used
for steam purposes also. Ordinary
steam Goals have not been in so great
demand. British industries are get
ting them from Germany, Belgium
and Holland.
The department has learned, Incl
dentally, that production in the coal
mines of France, Belgium and Hol-
land has broken all previous records.
Half of the mines in Holland are
state-owned, and these state mines
are so efficiently operated that their
gain in production has been greater
than the gain in privately owned
mines.
Take Market From British.
Orders from former users of British
coal have come to the United States
from the United Kingdom, France,
Italy, and northern Africa. American
shippers have tried to see in this
new business permanent outlet for
American coal, but the government
experts do not believe that American
coal can compete with German and
British fuel after the strike is set
tied. They say the German plan, of
a low freight rate to seaboard for ex-
port coal, must be adopted in Ameri-
ca before the coal of the United
States can compete in the world mar
ket.
Norfolk, the Main Port.
Norfolk is the great port of ship
ment of American fuel to Europe.
Two weeks ago the Chesapeake &
Ohio, which carries great share of
this coal from West Virginia to tide

water, had to place an embargo on
shipments until its crowded terminal
at Norfolk could be cleared. Balti-
more has had a sudden increase in
coal ships, and the same has been
true of New. York and Philadelphia.
Baltimore handles the product of the
western Maryland field, and some
coal from Pennsylvania.
In the opinion of agents of the de.
partment of commerce abroad, the
German coal industry, which is inter
locked with the German steel indus.
try, will be the principal gamer, both
now and in the future, from the ina.
bility of British mine operators to fur
nish coal. German mines are run
with cheap labor, employed long
hours, and they have been to great
extent modernized. German repara.
tons coal is now used by the Italian
state railways, in place of British
coal. German fuel is selling in France,
in the Italian industrial centers, and
in Englands factory towns.
Expect French Slump.
When the strike is over, French
coal mining is expected to slump. One
reason for this prospect is the com
ing sterilization of the franc, with low
purchasing power, unemployment and
a nationwide industrial depression for
a while. Belgium's coal industry will
probably share this collapse. Hol-
land is not big factor in the mar
ket. British and German coal will
struggle for supremacy, while Ameri-
can coal will fall back to its normal
export levels.
In none of its reports does the de.
partment of commerce learn as signif.
cant refusal Of transport workers
to handle shipments of coal because
OF the existence of the strike.

BORAH MAY TAKE
MEDIATOR'S JOB
IN MILL STRIKE
Weisbord to Step Out of
Negotiations

WASHINGTON, July %. - II the
mill owners will accept the mediation
Of Senator William E. Borah of Idaho,
the Passaic textile strikers will be
willing TO submit the dispute to him,
it is announced here.
A committee from the Passaic strik-
ers visited Washington last week and
asked Borah if he would act as medi-
ator. Senator Borah declared he would
do what he could, but that he had been
informed that the mill owners would
not listen to any proposals, so long as
Albert Weisbord, the young collegian
leading the strike, had any hand in the
proceedings.
The strikers committee returned to
Passaic and after a conference with
Weisbord, Senator Borah received the
following telegram:
81 have just received word that you
might lend your aid to a settlement
of the Passaic strike. We welcome
your aid and 1 assure you if settlement
can be secured 1 personally will do
everything in my power to help, even
to the extent of completely stepping
aside in settlement negotiations
ALBERT WEISBORD."
What the developments may be is
not yet known, but the offer of Weis-
bord to eliminate himself is expected
to bring settlement nearer, especially
if Borah will agree to act as mediator.
