15,000 Cars of Coal
on Sidings; Held For
Government Uses
By Associated. Press
Pittsburgh, Nov. 4.—No less than
15,000 cars of coal were on side tracks
in the Pittsburgh district last night,
confiscated by the government for
use, should the coal strike continue,
for tho operation of railroads and es
sential industries.
Union mines generally were closed,
in spitte of the fact that whistles
were blown and the pits kept open
for such of the strikers as desired to
return to work.
Non-union mines held about the
same position in the struggle as was
expected when the strike was called,
it being conceded that most of them
were in operation with the usual
working forces.
SITUATION THE SAME
By Associated Press.
Indianapolis, Nov. 4.—The situa
tion in the Indiana coal fields has
not changed since Friday night
when the strike order became ef
fective. Approximately 28,000
miners are out and apparently there
have been no defections from their
ranks.
WOMEN, HERE IS
A MONEY SAVER
Save five to ten dollars quickly by
dry cleaning everything in the home
just as- easy as laundering. You can
dry clean suits, coats, waists, silks,
laces, gloves, shoes, furs, draperies,
rugs, menJs clothes everything
that would be ruined by soap and
water.
Place a gallon or more of gasoline
in a dishpan or wash boiler, then put
in the things to be cleaned and wash
them with Solvite soap. Shortly ev
erything comes out looking like new.
Nothing fades, shrinks or wrin
kles. No pressing needed. Do not
attempt to dry clean without Sol
vite soap. This gasoline soap is the
secret of all dry cleaning.
A package of Solvite soap, con
taining directions for home dry
cleaning, costs but a few cents at
any drug, grocery or department
store. Dry clean away from flame,
or out of doors.

ilies in need, came to-day from
union headquarters at Natrona, Pa.,
where hundreds of workers form
erly employed at the Allegheny and
West Penn Steel Companies reside.

Nonunion Mines Are
Breaking Coal Records
Pittsburgh, Nov. 4.—Record-break
ing coal production in non-union
mines in the Pittsburgh district was
reported today by operators, while
union leaders said the mines under
the jurisdiction of the United Mine
Workers were down as tight as any
time since the strike was called.
Cars, it was said were even more
plentiful to-day than they were yes
terday, and railroads were making
every possible effort to move as
promptly as it was loaded.
Small mines which provide coal for
domestic purposes were operating in
all parts of the district and wagons,
trucks and even wheelbarrows were
bring used by neighboring residents
who had not a full winter supply of
fuel to reinforce the stocks with such
supplies as they could obtain.
A company of United States infant
ry which arrived at Brownsville, oq
the Monongahela river, from Fort
Niagara early to-day, was expected to
police that section which was describ
ed as "the borderland" between the
unionized field of the Pittsburgh dis
trict and the non-union Connelaville
ccke country.
The soldiers, directly under com
mand of Colonel R. K. Evans, were
equipped for a long stay, but reports
that they were to be reinforced with
troops already on the way could not
be confirmed.

In the extensive Pennsylvania fields
were under orders to-day to be ready

San Antonio, Texas.
The Thirty-fifth Infantry will start
to-morrow for Camp Lewis, Washing

Nortliwestt an announcement from
Camp Travis said.
For duty in Wyoming coal fields, a
company of the Twenty-first Infantry
to-day was enroute from Spokane,
Washington. Military control was
established in all the Northern Wy

nounced civil officers would continue
to function.
Additional state troops were sent
into the Colorado fields, their activi
ties centering northwest of Trinidad.
There the only arrest in connection
with the walkout was reported yes
terday. Mr. C. Rouse, a miner, was
taken into custody by the soldiers af
ter he had threatened, it was charged
to burn certain mines if production
were continued.
Fifteen Mines Resume
Fifteen union mines in the northern
fields of West Virginia to-day had re
sumed production, according to a
statement by the West Virginia Coal
Association, which asserted that was
the first definite break In the miners'
ranks. Coal production In that state
was well over 60 per cent, of the
operators said.
Non-union miners in Pennsylvania
to-day continued on their Jobs get
ting out an appreciable amount of
fuel, with the amount brought to the
surface swelled by the work of nearly
all mines In eastern Kentucky five
Ohio strip pits and the return to work
after a one-day lay oft of the lignite
mines in North Dakota.
In Alabama operators asserted that
seme of the larger mines were run
ning practically on full schedule.
Claims of union leaders in the south's
largest production field that 23,000
of 26,000 men employed in thte indus
try were idle were disputed by the
operators, who said possibly one half
the workers had gone out.
No actual suffering to-day had been
reported as due to the coal shortage.
Would Raise Wages
and Boost Coal Prices
to Settle Walkout
By Associated Press.
Cleveland, Ohio, Nov. 4. —That the
United States government withdraw
its Federal injunction against the
coal strike leaders at once and that
the miners return to work under a
guarantee of a wage increase of 15
or 20 per cent., effective November 1
or upon their leturn to work, are
proposed in a plan of compromise by
A. L. Faulkner, Federal commission
er of conciliation here, in an effort
to avert a continued criss in the coal
strike.
Mr. Faulkner further proposes
that:
Operators be permitted to add the
increased wage cost to the war-time
fixed price of coal;
A board of arbitration, one mem
ber representing the miners, one
the operators and a third to be a
neutral member selected by the first
two or appointed by the President
be named to determine just wages,
hours and yearly contracts;
The report of the arbitration
board be made public and effective
prior to April 1, 1920, at the expira
tion of the period during which the
miners received the 15 or 20 per
cent, increase over their present
wages.
It is understood Mr. Faulkner has
wired his proposal to Secretary of
Labor Wilson.

Operators May Issue
Public Invitation to
Miners to Come Back
By Associated r-ess
Charleston. W. Va., Nov. 4. Op
erators of West Virginia coal fields
affected by the strike met here to
day to consider issuing a public in
vitation to all striking miners to re
turn to work. Decision to act on this
method to secure an early resump
tion of operations was made by the
operators, according to officials of
the West Virginia Coal Association
when the first break reported in the
ranks of the strikers occurred yes
terday at 15. union mines in the
northern part of the state.
No desertions were reported in
other coal regions, and union leaders
are confident the men will stand
firm All the mines reported to be
working in the northern districts,
however, are small and the

large. All mines in Southern West

nothing to say regarding the bitum

of reserve coul from the Pittsburgh
district continued to-day. More

already to points as far west as Chi

Dowry Humes continued to-day to
investigate reports of profiteering in
coal, and violations of the rules and
regulations governing prices as stip

was due to the disposition of pro
ducers to hold up great quantities
of coal at their mines in anticipa
tion of higher prices. He had five
representatives scattered throughout
the district yesterday.
