Asserting the Illinois ieal operators;
had net been treated fairly In negotia
tions looking te settlement of the real
strike, Frank Farrlngten. president of
the United Mine Workers of Illinois,
expressed the belief that mine owners
of his State "would go along with any
reasonable plan for ettlcment of the

of a report from Chicago stating that
the Illinois operators had refused te
enter Inte conference with operators of
ether States.
Mr. Farrlngten said that en two pre pre
vleus occasions the Illinois eli.-wvneri
had agreed te nttend eenrrn-nees, but
en both occasions the proposed meeting

Mr. Farrlngten said he had net been

of his State, Mr. Farrlngten said, had '
repeatedly Invited the Illinois miners ,
te confer, but the miners had refused te

Conspiracy te Defeat Ends of
Justice Charged by Dis
trict Attorney
ASK COURT TO INVESTIGATE
Ily the Associated Pres
White Plains. N. Y June liV Dis
trict Attorney Weeks tednv made a for
mal complaint te Supreme ( eurt Jus
tice Mersehnuser, chnrging that (leerge
S. Wnrd. wealthy baker nnd father of
Walter 8. Ward, who has confessed
killing Clarence Peters, has entered n
conspiracy te defeat the ends of jus
tice. Justice Merschnuser. who Impan
eled the Oram! Jury Investigating the
Ward case, was asked by the District
Attorney te sit as a committing mag
istrate and Investigate the charges
brought bv the District Attorney.
Oeergc S. Ward, for whom n sttbpena
hns been issued, is said te be in Penn
sylvania. ,
The invstfry surrounding the death or
Peters, nfter four days of Investigation
bv the Urend Jury, slill remains un
solved and Ward's story stands.
Ward's jeunger brother. Ralph, was
eliminated 'as a witness when he testi
fied that whatever knowledge he had
of the blnckmnll plot, which, accord
ing te Walter Ward, resulted in the
sheeting of Pctets, rnme te lilm second
hand. Ralph Wnrd said he received
his Information from his father, who
get it from Walter.
The only ether witnesses from whom
the prosecution hopes te obtain Infor
mation that might upset Ward's nllbi
are the missing "Jack" and "Charley,"
and the Westchester officials are making
every effort te find them, with the odds
ngalnst their doing se. Unless It can be
proved that Wnnl lied when he said he
killed Peters in self-defense, it Is un
likely that there will be an indictment.
Ralph Ward was a reluctant nnd at
times a defiant witness. He knew there
was n possibility that if he refused te
answer questions he might be thrown
into jail for contempt of court, but he
Insisted that the knowledge he hnd of
lils brother's rase was only what he
learned frenv hit father, and Justice
Merchauser ruled that he could net be
compelled te divulge it.

BAPTISTS GAINING
L
Reports of Steady Growth Re
ported te Convention by Mis
sionaries Acress the Seas
FACE HUGE FINANCIAL TASK
By the Associated TrcM ,
Indianapolis, June IB. An "un
precedented advance In evangelism
in the last year en various foreign fields
was reported today at the fifteenth an
nual convention of the Northern Bap
tist Convention by Dr. Frederick L.
Andersen, of Newton Center, Mass.
Dr. Andersen declared that in splte
of unsettled world conditions the pcrlea
from Mny 1, 1021, te May 1, 1022. had
proved n record year in spreading the
gospel in foreign lands.
"In Africa." he stated, "the Burma
Mission reports -7fi.1 baptisms during
the yeer. meklng n total church mem
bership of 73,(Khl. One of the most
encouraging reports comes by cablegram
from the new field north of Kengtung,
Burma, across the Chinese betdcr,
where, since January 1. 1022, mere
thnn 25)0 converts have been baptized.
"Missionaries In Assam have writ
ten of unusually large accessions of
church membership. India never seems
te have been se wide open te the gospel
as it Is today. Missionaries in Japan
have expressed the opinion that the
last year will prove te have been the
best year in the history of Jepan in
evangelistic achievements.
"Letters from Russia reveal an as
tonishing growth In Baptist churches.
According te the estimate of Russian
leaders, the proposed union of the two
Baptist bodies new known ns the AH
Russian Baptist Union and the All
Russian Evangelical Christian Union,
would constitute the second largest
Baptist body In the world, with about
'J.OOO.OOO members."
Dr. Andersen reported that there nre
new mere than nine hundred mission
aries of the American Baptist For
eign Mission Society, including these
of the Women's American Beptlst For
eign Mission Society, serving the de
nomination en foreign fields. These
nre assisted by mere than 7000 preach
ers, teachers nnd ether helpers.
Northern Baptists nre confronted
with "n stupendous nnd perplexing
financial tnk," hut thev nre at the
verge of "depths of Christian experi
ence and heights of victory hitherto
unknown," Dr. Jehn Y. Altchlsen told
the convention.
"Our receipts for the year aggre
gate $0.ri00.000," Dr. Altchlsen stated.
"The year Just closed marks the high
est record yet attained by Northern
Baptists in gifts te missionary, edu edu
catlenni and benevolent objects, with
the single exception of the fiscal year
1920-21.
