are for crossing ia one direction.
The officials estimate that ap
proximately 5000 American citi

AS only very few who cross
continue their journeys in either

that as many cross in one Girec

INDIANAPOLIS. June 6.~Repre-
sentatives of District No. !, United Mine
Workers OF America. were held today
seeking from john l.. Lewis, intern2 =
tional president, an opinion on the
legality of q "rump" convention held
recently at Scranton. Pa, which elected
new officers for the district.
The delegation, headed by Rinaldo
Capellini. president OF the district or
ganization. planned 10 lay before the
union head evidence regarding the
manner OF holding and calling the con-
vention in which the insurgents de-
clared the present district officers
ousted and proceeded TO elect others.
The insurgent group was said 10 be
dissatisfied because Capellini had failed
to take a stand against the practice Of
contract mining" in the district,
whereby an operating company agrees
TO pay the contractor stated amount
for each ton of coal mined, and the
contractor hires men TO mine the coal.
Capellini and his faction contend the
Scranton convention was illegal because
Ii was not called by the regularly elect
ed Officers The insurgents claim since
a majority OF the local unions III the
district were represented the conVen~
ton was legal.
At international headquarters 1t was
considered doubtful whether President
Lewis would declare himself on the con-
vention's authority 10 elect officers. The
manner Of holding the convention, II
was said would have 10 be measured by
provisions of the constitution Of the
United Mine Workers.

Both the Kentucky and Indiana
commissions expect to take ad :
vantage of this bill in joining in the
contract.
Indiana under the provision of the
1927 statute may do so as Section
10 specifically states: that the high
way commission is authorized and
empowered both before and during
the construction Of any such bridge
and after the completion thereof to
cooperate with and enter into a
contract or contracts with any adj
joining State which is acting through
proper agents to provide for the

struction of such bridge not ex-
ceeding one-half thereof as may be-
agreed upon in such contract,
Under the provisions of this Sec
ton the money to be received from
Kentucky for its half of the share
of the bridge shall be used to reim-
brse Vanderburg County for its
bond issue, the remainder to be
turned into the State general fund.
The bridge then is to be toll free.

KENTUCKY Will
help ON BRIDGE
AT evansville
States to Enter Contract
Within Next Two Weeks
for Span.

Within the next two weeks the
Indiana highway commission will
be ready to enter into a contract
with the Kentucky commission by
which Kentucky will defray half of
the cost of the Evansville Ohio
River bridge.
A contract has been submitted tc
Attorney General Arthur L. Gilhom
to ascertain whether it is in COM
pliance with the 1927 statute pro-
viding for the construction of the
span. John D. Williams, highway
director, said today.
An outline of the contract was
drawn up and discussed at the
meeting of the Kentucky commits
sion with the Indiana commission
here last week, at which were pres
ent Governor Ed jackson and Dep
uty Attorney General Conner Ross.
Since that time Ross has been de-
termining the legal aspects Of the
contract which is favored by Jack
son.
The contract under consideration
would have Kentucky pay the Is per
cent which under the 1927 statue
would be betrayed by Vanderburg
County through the sale of bonds
and Is of the remaining rs per cent
which would have come out of the
funds of the State Highway Com
mission.
The 1927 law also provided tolls be
collected to repay the county for its
share and State of Indiana one-quar-
ter of the expenditures on the bridge
made from the funds of the High
way Commission. The commission,
however, will not be repaid, its share
of the tolls going to the State gen.
eral fund.

ANCHORAGE PIONEER
 DIES IN EXPLOSION

Conclusive evidence of the death of Jack Minnis in an explosion which destroyed his cabin on As pen creek in the Chickalopn dis tiict on the evening of September 29, was obtained by Assistant U. s. Attorney Clyde R. Ellis. accord ing to the Anchorage Times, in the form of statements of several men who visited the scene of the explosion the day following the tragedy. IL is known that Minnis was at his camp a short time be- fore the explosion occurred and it has been established conclusiyely that a human being and a dog perished ia the explosion, pieces of human flesh and the fragment of dogs paw found in the debris leaving no doubt on that point The only unexplained phase of the tragedy is the circumstance of the explosion, how it occurred.
 Anchorage friends of Minnis scout the suggestion of suicide, de- claring he was not of the suicidal type of man, and in the absence of any information bearing on the cause of the tragedy, it probably will go down on record as another of Alaska's unexplained death mys- teries.
 Minnis was an oldtimer Of the north, d mmeber of the Anchorage Igloo of Pioneers of Alaska. He had considerable quantity of dynamite in his cabin for use in connection with his prospecting operations, and 1t was this dyna- mite, supposedly, which caused his destruction. h4 As4
