    TELLS OF PLOT TO
OUST ROMANOFFS
Martens Says He Was De
ported From Russia Fol
lowing Imprisonment
New York, Nov. 18.—Ludwlg C. A.
K. Martens, "ambassador of the
Hussi&n Soviet Republic," who plot
ted in Germany and Switzerland
with Nikolai Lenine and Leon Trot-
Bky for the overthrow of the Russian
Imperial government, and testified
here yesterday, was deported from
Russia after serving three years lim
prisonment for his revolutionary
activities.
"The Russian revolution was my
life," Martens declared in telling the
Joint legislative committee investi
gating radical activities in this state
the story of his relations with the
Russian Bolsheviki. He appeared
before the committee under
arrest for contempt after hav
ing refused Saturday to submit to
examination or to supply corres
pondence with his government. He
maintained that his person and his
papers were entitled to diplomatic
immunity.
The tale of the plot against the
Romanoffs, which covered many
years, was brought out by questions
put to Martens by Deputy Attorney
General Berger.
He testified he was one of the lead
ers of the revolution in Russia In
1905 and 1906 and directed propa
ganda from Berlin for the overthrow
of the Czar's government. Mr. Ber
ger brought out this testimony in an
effort to show that the collapse of
the Russian government was the re
sult of a German plot.
Much Whisky Awaits
Favorable Action by '
the Supreme Court
By Associated Press.
"Washington, Nov. 18. —Should the
Supreme Court hold the wartime act
unconstitutional millions of gallons
of whisky and wine would be placed
on the market immediately in those
states which had not voted out
liquor before the operation of the
Federal act.
Those longing for a "wet" Christ
mas are not placing all their hopes
on a favorable opinion by the Su
preme Court. In spite of the some
what complicated Peace Treaty sit
uation in the Senate many oppo
nents of prohibition expect peace
to be an accomplished fact before
the end of the present special ses
sion of Congress this month. The
White House has announced that
immediately upon the proclamation
of peace President Wilson will de- (
clare wartime prohibition at an end.

TUESDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG TELEGBAPH "' NOVEMBER 18, 1919. '
TAKES CONTROL
OF KANSAS MINES
State Will Operate Large Min
ing Properties; Other
Federal Action
Chicago, Nov. 18. —A new phase
entered the strike situation by
the proceedings started in Ohio and
Kansas in an effort to resume op
eration on the mines in those states.
In Kansas the large mining prop
erties in Crawford and Cherokee
counties, last night passed into the
control of the state when the state
Supreme Court issued orders and
named receivers for the properties.
The action followed the filing of quo
warranto proceedings by Attorney
General Richard J. Hopkins to bring
übout the receivership.
The Ohio Supreme Court yester
day was asked by George H. Phelps,
Findlay lawyer, to direct Attorney
General Price of that state to begin
ouster proceedings against Ohio coal
companies organized under the laws
of the state for failure to operate
and to have receivers appointed for
the ntlnes.
Another angle to the situation de
veloped In North Dakota where Gov
ernor Lynn J. Frazler had seized the
mines. Adjutant General Angus Fra
ser and Captain L. R. Baird, of the
North Dakota Home Guard, are or
dered by District Judge W. L. Nues
sle to appear'before him November
19 and show cause why the court
should not issue a permanent In
junction restraining the Home
Guards from "taking, holding and
retaining possession" of private coal
mines at Wilton, N. D.
"Joke Wedding"
Was Not a Joke,
Is Court's Belief
Trenton, N. J., Nov. 18.—The
Court of Errors upheld the Court
of Chancery in refusing to annul the
marriage of Hearse.v Girvan and
Georgiana Griffin, alias Georgiana
Williams, which Girvan sought to
have set aside on the ground that
it bud been contracted as a joke;
that he and the girl had not lived
together after the ceremony, that
he had contributed nothing to her
support and that she had asked for
nothing. The marriage occurred on
August 16, 1917, at Belmar, where
the young couple met and it was
performed by the Rev. Walter Eurle
Ledden, a Methodist minister.
Girvan in his petition to have the
wedding annulled alleged that the
ceremony was simply a vacation
frolic and that he did not feel bound
by it. He thought the girl also re
garded it as a joke. The Court of
Errors said there was nothing to
indicate that the marriage was a
jest and found no corroboration of]
Girvan's claim that it was a joke.
MUCH UNREST
LAID TO GREED
Workingman and "Boss" Both
Found at Fault by Mer
chants' Committee
New York, Nov. 18. —Disregard of
the public welfare by both employers
and employes, who, though antago
nistic to each other, seize every op
portunity to increase their own re
turns to the detriment of national
prosperity, is largely responsible for
the economic conditions that have
led to the present industrial unrest,
says a report of the industrial com
mittee of the Merchants Association
of New York. The blame for this
principle of self-interest is placed
equally on the shoulders of the
workingman his "boss."
Understanding and confidence be
tween employers and employes,
through which a recognized and per
manent method of co-operation and
conciliation might be reached, limi
tation of the law of supply and de
mand, and abandonment of the pres
ent attitude of blind greed on the
part of both parties in industry are
the three methods suggested lor the
essential and satisfactory evolution
of the present system.
What form arbitration between
the forces of capital and labor
should take is not included in the
report, which says that varying con
ditions existing in industry make it
imperative that each business adopt
the plan best suited to its own or
ganization. The stipulation is made,
however, that any plan should be
worked out by both employers and
employes, and should not be pre
scribed by the former alone.
Denies Goldman
Influenced Czolgosz,
Who Killed McKinley
New York, Nov. 18. —Counsel for
Emma Goldman denies his client
ever had influenced Czolgosz, who
assassinated President McKinley, as
eh&rged by Attorney General Pal
mer in reply to a Senate inquiry re
garding the "deportation status," of
Mrs. Goldman and Alexander Berk
man.
Two Men Killed
in Dupont Blast
Wayne, N. J., Nov. 18.—Two men
were killed and two mills demolish
ed by the powder explosion yester
day at the E. 1. Dupont Nemours
plant here. Several of the workers,
many of whom were girls, were in
jured. The explosion,which was heard
fifteen miles away, damaged score-s
of houses of employes near the
plant, it is supposed to have been
caused by friction in grinding pow
der.
HOPES TO HURRY
PEACE IN MINES
Administration Mindful of the
Rapidly Diminishing
' Coal Supply
By Associated Press.
Washington, Nov. 18.—With the
nation's visible coal supply rapidly
diminishing:, the administration is
determined to bring about the. re
sumption of production without de
lay, and intends to hasten the set
tlement between operators and mi
ners, it was said. Offlclnls of the
Department of I-abor stated how
ever, that reports to the effect that
the government might take over
mines and operate them were with
out foundation. Such action, they
said, would be taken only as the
last resort.
Meanwhile, in behalf of the cen
tral field operators' committee, a
series of telegraphic reports from
mining centers was given out show
ing that not a mine was operating
in its territory. Production was
absolutely at a standstill in south
western states, the reports declared,
and average only about fifty per
cent, "of normal In Pennsylvania
fields outside of what is classed as
the central competitive field. In
West Virginia, however, production
