Cabinet Called in Session.
By Associated Pr**».
Washington, Oct. 30.—President
Wilson’s cabinet was called in special
session this morning to make final
plans for dealing with the strike of
bituminous coal miners Saturday. The
call was issued by Secretary Lansing.
The revival of the fuel administra-
tion to deal with the conditions grow-
ing out of the coal strike is unneced-
sary, Dr. Harry Garfield advised the
President’s cabinet today, holding that;
the war-time powers of that body -was
now vested in the railroad administra-
tion, which has full authority to dis-
tribute coal to essential industries.
Members of the cabinet said that If
Garfield's suggestion was Adopted it
would obviate the necessity of asking
congress for money to reorganize the
coal administration.
An executive order restoring the
maximum price of coal will be issued
by President Wilson, probably today.

Indianapolis, Ind., Oct. 30.—After
pronouncing the stirke of the bitum-
inous coal miners inevitable, and blam-
ing the operators for forcing a walk-
out that may involve half a million
men directly,- the conference here of
officials of the United Mine Workers
of America wound up its business last
night and dissolved.
District presidents and members of
the scale committee 'left for their
homes to direct the locals in the strike
which is to become effective at mid-
night Friday. Only a new wage agree-
ment to replace the one which they
claim expired with tjie war emergen-
cy, is wished by the union, its leaders
emphasizing that a call from the mine
owners for a joint meeting will find
the organization ready to negotiate
on any or all of the demands formu-
lated at the Cleveland convention of
the union.
These and other points in the un-
ion’s position were set forth in a
statement prepared by a committee of
the conference and adopted by unan-
imous vote. The statement was char-
acterized as the final word from union
forces and Johu L. Lewis, icling pres
ident, and plher officials referred
questioners to the statement as em-
bodying everything that :ould be said
and answering all rumors. The state-
ment brought out that no comniunica
tion had been received from the nat-
ional administration and lhat the un-
ion had no knowledge . of President
Wilson’s attitude, only through news-
paper accounts. It combated the Pres-
ident’s claim* that the strike was ille-
gal Ey asserting that "the right to
strike or quit work had been upheld
by the courts and that in leaving their
Jobs the men will exercise a constitu-
tional prerogative.

the public was overwhelmingly against
the walkout at the beginning of win-
ter and that duration of the strike
would be brief.
Refusal of the miners’ organization
to withdraw the strike order was a
distinct surprise to officials, who
changed quickly from a hopeful to a
fighting attitude. There was no dis-
position to dispute the right of the
men to strike, but officials were grim-
ly determined to see that men who do
not strike will be protected in and out
of the mines even If that means the
presence of troops.
TWENTY MINERS IMPRISONED;
NO HOPE FOR THEIR ESCAPE
B»' Associated er»«*
Steubenville, Ohio, Oct. 30.—After
battling their way to within 150 feet
of the twenty miners who have been
imprisoned since yesterday morning,
the rescue workers were ordered out
of the mine at* Amsterdam by mine
officials and state mine inspectors,
who feared that an explosion might
occur. According to word received
here, the hope that the imprisoned
miners were still alive has been aban-
doned.
The rescue party worked all night
in the gas filled mine. Fire broke out
behind the rescue party, which forced
them to fight their way through smoke
and flames, many narrowly escaping
suffocation.

Government Moves Swiftly.
Washington, Oct. 30.—The govern-
ment, confronted with refusal of the
miners to call off the strike, of half
million soft coal workers ordered for
Friday night, moved swiftly to protect
the people from great distress. First
of many steps to deal with a situation
admittedly critical probably Will be
these:
Ample police- protection or other-
protection for miners willing to re-
main on the job as urged by President
Wilson.
Revival of the fuel administration,
armed with full war-time powers to
prevent hoarding and profiteering.
Allocating and distribution of coal
to homes, railroads and essential In-
dustries.
Efforts to bring the strike to a spee-
dy end through mediation.
The government, however, will make
no attenlflfto bring about indictment
of officer^^ the United Mine Work-
ers of America who called the strike
on charges of conspiracy to reduce
production of a necessary production

officials asserted that reports ftaty,
