lor early hearing.
J The case was ordered heard before
a dozen other important cases previously

Although the court set the argument
for a week after the law goes
into effect the interests of railway
employes and also the railroads are

V stipulations signed by railroad and
government attorneys.
This stipulation, a part of the official

employes under the Adamson act for
prompt payment if the court sustains
the law. The stipulation also suspends
all litigation, both by the railroads
and the government, over the

For Evangelists instead of Part

?t?OClATVO
ST. LOUIS, Dec. 11?A salary basis
for evangelists Instead of the
present system of part salary, part
subscription systematically solicited
and part free-will offering. Is urged
by the commission on evangelism of
the Feleral Council of Churches in
Christ, in a report submitted to the .
quadrennial convention of the coun- j
cil at its session here Monday.
"The present system," says the report,
"insures the evangelist an income
far in excess of the'earnings
of equally gfted men in any other department
of religious effort, and
gives an altogether hurtful prom I
nence to the commercial aide of I
evangelism."

PITTSBURG, Dec. 11.?ArreBted after
a long automobile chase Monday
James Reed was being held by the federal
authorities here in connection
with the explosion Sunday night at
the Fort Pitt plant of the Aetna Chemical
Company, which cost the lives of
three men. Meantime federal agents
were hunting for three otnor men,
who, they say, are suspected of having
been concerned in explosions in other
parts of the country and more directly
with the explosion at the Oakdale plant
of the Aetna company, September 15,
when Ave men were killed.
Reed had as his working companion
in the Aetna plant a federal agent who
had been watching him since early
in the afternoon when, it is alleged.
Reed tried to gain admission to the
Fort Pitt plant. Reed was employed
in the Oakdale plant.
Samuel C. Jamison/coroner of Alle
gheny county, after visiting the ruins
of Sunday night's explosion expressed
the belief that the building had been
blown up by a bomb.
Federal agents who had been investigating
explosions in chemical and
munitions plants throughout western
Pennsylvania were looking into a report
among the workmen that ten minutes
before the explosions at Oakdale
and the Fort Pitt plant every light in
the plant was extinguished for fully a
minute. The men said they bellevca
this was the signal for confederates!
of the plotters to leave the works.
Reed, who was being held at Central
police station, was said by the
government authorities to have resided
in New York, from which place he
went last summer to Uniontown, Pa.,
where there were a number of explosions
in powder factories, and from
there he went to Oakdale.

( r AlfOCIATID rn*??5
WASHING-TON. Pa.. Dec. H.?For
the first time in the history of the
western Pennsylvania coal region i
"day light coal mining" is to receive
a trial. Two, thousand acres of coal
land in the Burgettstown region have
been purchased by a newly formed
company. The coal in this locality
lies at a depth of from fifteen to ninety
feet and the company proposes to
strip the ground down to the coal except
where high hills are encountered.
It is estimated the stripping process,
which has been used in Eastern Ohio,
will save $1,000 worth of coal an
acre, which can not be removed by
shaft mining.

WASHINGTON. Doc. 11.?Twice
since the! election It has been printed
in newspapers In West ;Virginia that
Senator Nathan Goff was on the point

so far as to state that it was "rumored"
that the resignation had been
received by Governor Hatfield; These
reports' originated in this city and
significantly appeared originally only
in partisan Democratic newspapers.
Senator Goff issued a direct denial to
the first, publication, and ; Governor
Hatfield's office has issued a denial of
the second in so far as it related to a
resignation being received by him
from him by Senator - Goff. Senator
Golf's secretary, E. H. McDermott,
has denied the second report of a resignation.
