MINERS WILL NOT
PUSH APPEAL NOW
Efforts to Set Aside Injunction Not to
b« Made Until After the Confer
ence. No Comment made as to Re
sumption of Mines.
Indianapolis, Ind., Nov. 12.—The
United Mine Workers of America, con
trary to previous announcement, have
decided to withhold their appeal ou
the ruling of the Federal court in
injunction proceedings which result
ed in the calling off of the strike of
coal miners yesterday. ,
It had been generally believed that
regardles of developments in the sit
uation the miners would fight their
- Case in the courtirto ftre~tast ditch and
attorneys for the coal workers an
nounced yesterday tha their appeal
would be filed with two or three
days. However, Henry Warrum,
chief counsel for the mine workers
organization, tonight stated that the
outcome of the conference of misers’
representatives and coal operators,
with Secretary of Labor Wilson, in
Washington Friday, would determine
to a large extent whether the .case is
carried further. The miners’ counsel
have thirty days in which to file their
appeal.
The decision of the miners is taken
to indicate that they have accepted
the government’^ assurance that the
suit against the miners was not an
attack against the right to strike but
twas solely to prevent violation of the
law, in this case the Lever act.
Possibility of speedy agreement at
the Washington conference, according
to opinion here, is marred only by the
question of When a new wage scale
ta*0d become efWcfive. -Mltners’
spokesmen have stated that if the
operators go to the conference in a
spirit of conciliation, agreement was
only a question of hours, but it is
known that the union men object to
the position taken by the operators
that the wage scale in egect before
the strike sill is in effect.
Many of the delegates to Friday’s
meeting, who were "in attendance at
^TWeWHferepce here this week, Jett
tonight for Washington. Wm. Green,
ers, 'will leave early tomorrow morn
ing and Acting Pesident John L
secretary-treasurer of the mine work-
Lewis will start for the conference to*
morrow afternoon.
Miners officials this afternoon de
clined to comment on the way in
which the members of the organiza
tion are responding to their order
calling off the strike, and would give
no reports from the district head
quarters. They said no instructions
supplemental to their order had been
sent out from headquarters.
Very few of the miners in the In
diana coal fields reported for work to
day and it is not believed that opera
tion in the fields can be started exten
sively before next week. Union men
in the Evansville district will meet to
morrow night to vote on obeying the
order recalling the strike. Frofiti
Terra Haute there was a report that
the miners in that district were wait
ing the results of the conference in
Washington before returning to work.
A report from Bickell called attention
to omission from the order of the
miners officials of any instructions to
retur nto work, and it was said dis
trict leaders were refraining from
suupplementing the general order
in any way.
“JIM CROW” LAW
WITHSTOOD FIRE
North Joins South In Fight in House
to Prevent Its Being Nullified.
Washington, Nov. 15.—Congress
men today successfully routed all at
tempts to attach to the pending rail
road bill in the house any provision to
^irifringe the rights of - the southern
states to “Jim Crow’’ cars. In their
fight they v^ere aided by members
from other parts of the country.
By a vote of 1^2 to 12, a proposed
amendment by Representative Mad
den, Illinois, Republican, was voted
down and out of the measure.
Southern members in unison at
tacked the proposal telling the houAe
that it would disturb conditions in the
south seriously and caube friction be^
tween the races which might end in
bloodshed. “This is not a prope^
question to be raised at this time,”
Representative Snyder, Republican, of
New York, told the house. “No de
mand for it is made by the colored
people and we already have enough
difficulties without bringing on this
one. The north does nof really what
it means to the people of the south.”
Represenative Crisp Democrat, of
Georgia, brought the debate to an end
with a motion t.p strike but the pro-

posed amendment and his, motion pre
vailed.
“Somewhere down the line there
will come a reckoning,” Representa
tive Summrs of Texas told the house,
warning It against the proposal.
“It’s a bad situation down there and
unless you permit us to draw the line
somewhere there will be friction. If
that should come, then you must take
the responsibility for this proposal.”
Representative Stevenson of South
Carolnia told the house the south
handled its negro problem better than
the north as was evidenced by the re
cent ra^q riots and Representative
Moore of Virginia, reminded the mem
bers that the Supreme Court of the
United States ha^--.sustAined the
