held from publication by Judge Clar-
ence W. Sessions, presiding, until war-

The second indictment cited the. af-
fidavits which Senator Newberry
ma do while serving at tho Brooklyn,
navy yard in which he swore no cam-

OHJECTS TO MINIMI-M OF «M>00

* (' - 'Otntcd TrcBf" IV.: i>" ' >
Austin, Tex., Nov. 20.—The estab-
lishment of ft minimum of sixty thou-
sand pounds for car lots of grain and
grain products is a gross injustice to
the milling interests and consumers
of grain in Texas; It has added to
the high cost of living; and -it, should
be corrected at once, Mated a mes-
sage dispatched today .from the Tex-
as rai'road commission to the fed-
eral railroad commission.
The state commission's previous
request for a modification ot this
ruling lias been refused, and today's
communication was a renewal pf the
case. This ruling, the message said,-
will force practically all the retail,
merchants to transport their flour-
at local freight rates, as they are un-
able to buy In sixty thousand pound
lots. And climntlo conditions are
•tich that this large stock of flour
would spoil before It was consumed.
The minimum weight on grain ship-
ments has already been raised twice
by the federal administration, the
message stated, and tho commission
objects to grain being singled out to
bear an unusual burden Jn the at-

tors to Induce miners to return to
work for a wage advance of 14 per
cent and assurances of federal pro-
tection. Notices of this wage ad-
vanco suggested by Federal Adminis-

of work it might produce was not ex-
pected until next week ut the begin-
ning of the seeopd month of the

Protecting Trade Unions.
Assurance that the government
Would not tolerate any attempt to de-
stroy trade unions ro the principle
of collective bargaining on the part
of employing Interests wishing to
"lake advantage of the present situ-
ation," was given today by Dr. Gar-
field before leavlpg for his home at
Wllllamstown, Mass., where ho will
spend the week end.
"Ileport has come to me thai the
present crisis in the coal Industry will
bo used to break down the labor un^
Ions," Dr. Garfield said. "I wish to
say that I am opposed to the attempt
lo destroy the principle of collective
bargaining and the union of working
men us 1 am to the effect of labor
leaders to keep labor satisfied by a
constant boosting of wages regardless
of the public interest or to the ef-
fort of leaders in the industrial world
lo boost profits unduly to hurt the
public.
"Any attempt to complicate the is-
sue at this time by seeking to destroy
the union of the mine workers or the
principle of collective bargaining will
be resented by the public and op-
posed by me."
Near Half Capacity.
Official statistics showed produc-
tion to be approaching fifty per cent
during the first week and 33 per cent
tho second week. The woekly report
of the United States geological sur-
vey today showed 44. per cent of nor-
mal was produced during the third
week.
Dr. Garfield also Issued today a de-
tailed analysis of the figures on which
he based his conclusion for a 14 per
cent wage advance. Explaining
wherein he differed with Secretary
Wilson, he called attention to "the
fact that the principle involved is of
far greater Importance than the fig-
ures arrive* at"
"The principle applied In arriving
at 14 per cent is different In kind and
character from that applied In arriv-
ing at 81.01 per cent and hence any
attempt to average the two or to
compromise the results Is impossible,''
Dr. Garfield said.
Wages and Living Cost*.
A wage advance of 31.61 per cent
ns suggested by Secretary Wilson
would give a total wago advance since
1913 of 107.4 per cent, as compared
with a minimum advance of 79 per
cfcfit Irt living costs, he added.
• "Miners •nro paid by the ton," ho
said, "Other'mine workers aro paid
by. the d^y.. The day laborers gen-
erally ha>e received Advances of
wages slnee 1913 equal to nnd In some
Instances in excess .of the Increases
In tb'e orf-tt of living.
"The proposition that a general In-
crease of 31.01 per cent be given la
simply a proposition to give to all
initio lal>or the percentage of the ln-
ereaso reoninvl to lirinr t1m class, of
labor that has received the lowest
percentage up to the present and
level of living coKt, even though that
Advances the other groups fur above
tho amount necessary."
Dr. Garfield pointed out that sta-
tistics of the national Indu.-U iul con-
ference board showed -only 73 per
cent finer»..ise in tho cost of living and
that on this basis tho miners l>e en-
titled to oi ly -0.8 per cent ttagv ad-
vance.

Kansas City, Mo., Nov. 29.—Fifteen
hundred yard mm and trainmen of
the Kansas City terminul and rail-
roads entering the city went on strike
lute toilay, early ;cports tonight Indi-
cated. I>ny crews left their work ut
1 o'clock this afternoon and night
crews raining on at that hour did :iot
go to work. Eight roads are affected
so far.
liailroad officials after conferring
in Kansas City tonight addressed tele-
grams to governors of Missouri and
Kuiifus asking them to appeal lo the
federal government to supply troop-
to Insure operation of trains during
tho strike.
11. A. Carroll, general chairman, of
the brotherhood of railway trainmen,
of tho Kansus City Southern, pre-
dicted there would be a general walk
Out of the local trainmen and yard-
men. "We ran't stop them," he said.
Whethqr members of the local
switchman's union will also strike is
us yet uncertain.
H. A. Carroll, general chairman of
the B* of 11, T.. here issued a state-
ment to the trainmen saying the
strike Is illegnl under the laws of th£
Brotherhood of Hallway Trainmen,
the brother!
"This is.a most Inopportune time
for a strike such as contemplated,"
ha Id the statement, "and I urge that
you glvo this matter your most ear-
nest and serious consideration, keep-
ing In mind how a rail strike at this
time would Increase the suffering of
tho people who are now facing fnmlne
and suffering brought about on ac-
count of the coal strike."
If the men carry out their purpose
It will mean that Kansas City and
surrounding territory will bo left
practically without fuel ns none can
be moved without the aid of the men
going on strike.
__ %-
Cleveland, Ohio, Nov. 3* —W. O.
Lee, president of the Brotherhood of

M. Corbett, government railroad rep-
resentative at Kansas City, that the
proposed strike of trainmen there Is
illegal and that no protection or ben-
efits of the brotherhood will be given
to men engaging Inkier a I strikes «t
Kansas City or otlflr points.
Mr. Lee fully upheld tho warning
issued to trainmen at Kansas City by
H. A. Carroll, general chairman of

( !'• *1 Dt> U'h »
Chicago, III., Nov. 89.—Football
claimed five victims during the 1019
season, according to reports to the
Associated Press today. Tho num-
ber of deaths—the lowest in years -
was five less than in 1918 and seven
under tho toll of two years ago. There
wero eighteen lives lost during tbe
191B season and sixteen in 1915. The
dangers of a dozen years ago have
been almost cntlre'y eliminated in
tho new style of football, with a cor-
responding decrease in the number of
deaths.
Virtually all the victims of 1919
were players not participating In
games conducted under strict physi- i
cal requirements.

ett nt Wolborn stadium on December
4—the rate of exchange. Carpentler
will receive I.x 5.000 win. lose or
draw, according to unofficial reports.
At the nominal rato of exchange this
would mean that the French cham-
pion would receive about 125.000
francs, but with the exchange rate a'
its present, Carpentler's share will
amount to almost 300.000 francs.
Carpentler has wagered 2.000
pounds, or approximately the differ-
ence between his share under normal
rates aud at present.
"I am betting velvet, just plain
velvet, on the fight," says the French-
man.

and Lieutenant Russell; also I have
endeavored to arrr.n' for you to
land on the field Just across l'resten
road from tho Dallas county club.
The club is not ut this time allowing
plane* to land on its grounds for
th - reason that tho grounds are very
soft, hut the field just west of the
club is better. I havo not yet been
able to got In touch with the man
who controls It, but Mr. Hugh L.
Prather, told me that he did not
think permission was necessary as

Drafting La*t Note,
A note to Carriuiiwi. which some
officials think will be uhout the last,
was being drafted in the state de-
partment today but, so far ns could
be learned, It had not leen started
on the way to Mexico city tonight.
Senators ami representatives gath-
ering for the reconvening ofcongrest
were showing active Interest In the
course f>f tlni situation and there
were some indications It m'ght be
discussed lu both chambers Monday.
Up jjntil tonight tho government

If such an offer came tho opinion
of most officials who considered It
seemed to be it would !>• necept-
able only tinder certain condition*
which they thought Mexico would
lie unwilling to accept .
Humors Cleared Up.
Beports direct f'om Mexico city
discrediting yesterday's border ru-
mo*s of an uprising with fighting
In Hie streets served to simplify the
slltiSllon In that they removed one
complicating factor and left the Issue

continued murder and rrtob stuiion of
Americans.
Cabled advices from Mi xleo City

yesterday of a new revolution there.

Some weeks ago a child was kill-

YOl'lt MONEY'S WORTH
If a man is looking for a bar-
gain In something he m iy search
1 much as he pleases, but he can-
not find anything to compare with
the bargain he gets when subscrib-
ing to a daily newspaper, or buy-
ing a copy on the street for 5 cents.
In no other linn of activity has
so much thought and conscientious
effort been devoted to the work of
giving much for little. The work
dona In the office of publication
by no mejiis represents all of the
effort necessary to print a single
paper. News reporters In every
corner of tho globe aro on the Job
night and day to keep the readers
posted 011 what Is taking place.
Advertisers spend hours preparing
their copy. Telegraph operators,
linotype operators, ad. composi-
tors, stereotypers, pressmen, mull-
ing clerks, and many other individ-
uals aro always dutifully on tho
Job.
If the sum total of working
hours put in by tho various indi-
viduals In all parts of the world
In preparing this morning's Issue
of the Telegram were available, it
would present an astounding string
"of figures. We lcve no Idea what
tho total would bo. But It would
convince tho reader that ho gets
his money's worth in the paper;
for he could then begin to realise
Just how much effort Is being de-
voted to the delightful task of ren-
dering a service.
