~ ARMED MEN SPURI ORDER TO DISPERSE «hreaten to Blow Up Train Carrying Adjutant General of West Virginia. By the Associated Press. CHARLESTON, W. Va., August 30.— Reiterating that large forces are again leaving the Cabin creek di trict for the Logan border, Gov. E. F. rgan sent the following statement to Washington at midnight, address- fng it to both President Harding and Secretary of War Weeks: “Gen. Bandholtz left here Saturday. At that time armed men in Paint, «Cabjn and Lens Creeks and Big Coal River fields were dispersing. On Lit- tle Coal river in the vicinity of Sharples, Clotheir, Blair and Madison, armed men in excess of fifteen hun- dred have refused to disperse when uested by representatives of fed- era) and state governments. “On_Saturday night near Sharples, armed patrol attacked body of state police, which returned fire and killed three men. These armed bodies have also captured five Logan county peace officers and are holding them as pris- oners. Alded by Other States. “We have information that several hundred men from the coal fields of other states are gathered with these Insurrectionists in the Little Coal river section, and we are in Dosses- sion of the names of the leaders, who come from Illinois, Kentucky and Ohio. This element has threa‘ened the lives of officers of the United Mine Workers of this district, who have asked them to disperse. . “Adjt. Gen. Charnock has just return- ' ed from the vicinity of Sharples, where he commanded the insurrectionists to \disperse, but they have refused and are ‘maintaining many armed patrols on the Toads, and have seized passenger trains transport reinforcements to their camps, They have cut telephone wires and re- fused to allow their replacement, they continue to defy constituted au- thority. : v Communications Destroyed. “Large forces are again leaving the Eabin creel district tonight for the Lo- gan border, and have destroyed all com- munications on that creek. “The men mow assembled in Logan from McDowell, Mingo and Logan coun- tios to resist the invasion will be utterly unable to repel the attack. “Because of the imminent danger of sreat loss of life if there is a clash be- tween the Logan officers and citizens and the armed insurrectionists, and pe- lleving it is my duty to seek protection for the lives and property of our citi- zens, T most respectfully Tenew my re- quest for federal troops to be sent forth- With to West Virginia for the purpose of quelling the insurrection and disarm- ing" those engaged In it. Delay, in my opinion, will prove most disastrous.” Threaten to Blow Up Tral The formal statement of Adjt. Gen. Charnock as to his trip follows: “Under instructions from Gov. Mor- gan I proceeded to Clothier and Sharples, accompanied by three rep- resentatives of the United Mine Workers. designated by Messrs. Keeney and Mooney to accompany me and to ask the armed men assem- bled In that vicinity to disperse. These instructions were fully carried out. “The first stop in the trouble zone wag at Clothier at about 8:15 o'clock Sunday evening. We found approxi- ?nely one hundred men assembled, ind the letter prepared by Keeney and Mooney asking the armed men to disperse, return to their homes and place the mines in_operation was read by Mr. Porter. We. explained to & number of miners who boarded the train what we expected them to do, and after a number of conferences among themselves refused us per- mission at first to continue up the creek, threatening to blow up the train. Finally they recanted and per- mitted us to proceed from Clothier at 11:10 o'clock. Threats Have No Effect. ‘“We reached Sharples and were met at the station by about one hundred men. These assembled at the office building of the Boone County Coal Corporation, where Mr. Keeney's let- ter was again read and talks were made by both Mr. Porter and myself in which they were urged to go home and_ advised that there was abso- lutely no danger of their homes being raided nor any one molesting them in any way. Some went to their homes, but the majority did not, and then patrols on the road were con- tinued. “This morning we went to the scene of the shooting on Saturday night, when the armed patrols clashed With the state police. We secured the statements of practically a dozen witnesses. After the statements were &liven and the men were further ad- vised what to do and what they could expect if they did not follow this advice, they threatened to detain us. Casualties in Fighting. “I told these men that they would 'have to cease patrolling the roads, that they must not interfere with legal of- ficers who came to serve papers and advised them if the peace officers were frustrated in an effort to serve these processes that it could be de- pended on that a force would he found ‘which could serve the papers. t was ascertained that Willlam Greer was killed in the clash with the state police.

MONTREAL, August 29.—Sir Wil- 1lam Pope, president of the Society of [Chemical Industry, warned against a too slavish imitation of German meth- lods in synthetic chemistry, in an ad- iress at the fortieth convention of the jety, which opened today. Three hindred American, British and Cana- dian delegates were present. He predicted an immense develop- jment of the application of organic [chemistry to industry in the present jzeneration, especlally in the develop- ent of petroleum products along the lines of coal tar products.

A fourth casualty, George May, received a slight wound. According to Mr. Porter, several men at Sharples told him their stories of the fight, All agreed, he added. None of them could say whether the troopers and deputies suffered any losses. However, they stated that one campaign and one broad-brimmed hat were picked up near the scene. Guns and cal'trh'lgensx r. were found alongside the hats, Porter said the men told him. Boys Stand With Fathers. After the battle, Mr. Porter said his informants told him, all the miners in the vicinity armed themselves and small boys stood with arms at their fathers’ sides. Patrols that had been withdrawn from the mountains lving toward Logan were again thrown out. Later a party of men hunting a cow at Hewitt heard firing, and be- gan a search. At a nearby farm- house, the men told Mr. Porter, he said, the searchers found Magistrate Fulton Mitchell and four others eat- ing dinner with two machine guns, several rifles and pistols and a large supply of ammunition alongside them.

EVENING \ STAR, WASHINGTON D, Only FeebleEffort by State To Halt Move, Says Bandholtz Secretary Weeks Decides on Firm Hand in Putting Down Disturbances if Federal Troaps Must Be Dispatched. Once the federal government sends its troops into the West Virginia mining, regiop it will act quickly ‘andiwith & firm hand in putting down'the disturb- ances, according to Secretary of War was added to the Hewitts Creek | gy Weeks, following & long conference yestarday ‘afternoon ‘with ‘the Presi- dent regarding the most recent de- velopments in that disturbed section “It will be no child's play if our armed troops go there,” the Secretary said. “However, let us hope the situation can be relieved and that there will be no turther bloodshed.” Secretary Wecks, returning to Wash- ington yesterday from a vacation . trip, immediately began a study of the situa- tion as reported by Brig. Gen. H. H. Bandholtz, the War Départment's repre- sentative in the West Virginia coal fields. The War Secretary Iater went to the White House to discuss the situation with President Harding. Says Leaders Can Act. Upon leaving the White House the Secretary said that it was his poinion that the union leaders could end the disturbances, if they were inclined to do so. He stated further that it looks to him as though there is some in- surgency existing.in the ranks of the union leaders, and suggested that this fact may be the cause of the recent loss of life. Following his_conference with the President, Mr. Weeks hurried to his office and shortly afterward prepared the following statement regarding the recent events in West Virginia, which was later made public at the White House “By the first available transporta- tion after receipt of the telegram from Gov. Morgan, asking for troops, the Secretary of War sent Brig. Gen. . H. Bandholtz, U.,S. A, accom- panied by one general staff offi- cer, to Charleston, W.

More than one thousand former service men, many of whom had seen service overseas, w being formed into an emergency organization should they be needed to repel an attack from the hundreds of armed men who were currently reported to have gathered between ‘the ridge and the western boundary of Boone county. Rumors Fly Thickly. Reports from Capt. Brockus' patrol to the sheriff’s office said the early hours of the day had been quiet, but there was a great deal of restlessness in the Coal River field and many men had gathered there. Rumors flew thick and fast during the morning. one which attracted un- datiop<as to ether or nobwtroops were necessary. Governor Admitted Helpleasness. “Gen:' - Bandholtz arrived at capitol building in Charleston August 26, studied the ~ situation from avallable - information and immedi- ately requested that Gov. Morgan and the officers of the United Mine Work- ers of America see him at the cap- itol without delay. The governor ex- plained the situation and stated in effect that he felt obliged to make the humiliating _admission that the state could no longer handle the sit- ‘uation. “Messrs. Keeney, Mooney and Hous- ton were next admitted, these gen- tlemen being, respectively, president, secretary, treasurer and atforney, Dis- trict 17 of the United Mine Workers of America. They were briefly and courteously informed that a condition at least verging on insurrection ex- isted in the state of West Virginia; that this condition was due to the action of members of District 17; that leadership entailed responsibilities as well as prerogatives, and that in case a state of martial law was proclaimed the leaders would be held strictly ac- countable. Reported Movement Checked. “At 5:30 am. Messra, Keeney and Mooney left to check ‘the forward march of the miners and to induce them to return. About 3:30 p m. they reported by telephone that the move- ment had been checked and that the men had voted to return. “As_a result of his investigation Gen. Bandholtz is of the opinion that the state has made only a feeble at- tempt to check the growth of the In- surgent movement or to keep in_rea- sonable touch with its progress. West Virginia has a state constabulary of about 200 members, which, if prop- erly utilized, could have prevented or delayed the initial assembly of the miners at Marmet, within about ten miles of the state capital. The leg- islature before adjournment passed a National Guard enabling act, effective July 1, but by August 26 only an ad jutant’ general had been appointe INDICT MINERS’ LEADERS IN DEATHS OF TWO MEN 'Canases Sent Out for Arrest of Keeney and Mooney for Trial September 5. WILLIAMSON, W. Va., August 30.— Indictments were returned by a Spe- cial grand jury in session heré against C. F. Keeney and Fred Mooney, presi- dent and secretary, respectively, of District 17, United Mine Workers of America, and C. H. Wortman, an in- ternational organizer for the Miners' Union, in connection with the deaths last May of Ambrose Gooslin and Dan Whitt. The two men were killed dur- ing the three days' shooting in Mingo usual attention being to the effect that some four hundred labor leaders had reached Charleston and were calling out the men who took part in the march last week from Marmet to Madison. Sheriff Chafin and Sheriff Hatfield had the report, but said they would do nothing until-it had been confirmed, as they were confident that the border patrol was strong enough to handle the immediat€ situation. At Sheriff Chafin's office no word had been received of the release of the deputy sheriffs captured by aj band near the Boone ccunty line Sun- companions, one his brother and thel others John Browning and Will ‘White, were shackled with their own handcuffs by the men who discovered them, and that they are now held prisoners, being smuggled from place to place to prevent their release by |of the forces assembled at the foot Mr. Porter stated that thejof Spruce Fork ridge was made, but said messages had been sent|persons who have closely followed | deputies. men across the mountain to peace officers that the four will not be surrendered, but would be exchanged for captive miners at the rate of one captive deputy for ten miners. ARM TO MEET INVADERS. Over Thousand Make Up Force Or- ganized at Logan. By the Asvociated Press. LOGAN, W. Va, August 30.—More than a thousand men, made up of two companies of the state police, a host of deputy sheriffs and the remainder armed volunteer citizens from all over Logan county, were ready, their leaders said today, for any eventu- ality growing out of the fight last Sunday morning between state troop- ers and a band of armed men on the east slope of Spruce Fork Ridge, east of here. Capt. J. R. Brockus, with the troop- ers and a large force of Logan and McDowell deputy sheriffs, were out along the mountain overlooking .the towns of Clothier, Blair and Sharples. In Logan itself scores of armed men spent their time in the vicinity of the i | county, during the week of May 13. David Robb, an international or- ganizer for the miners, also was in- dicted as an accessory before the fact in connection with the death of Wil- liam McMullen, a state trooper, last June. McMullen was shot while on Buard duty. Prosecuting Attorney S. D. Stokes announced that he had sent caplases for the arrest of Keeney and Mooney to the sheriff of Kanawha county. The men will be called to trial, he said, at the regular term of court, com- mencing September 5. day, although, the sheriff added, Gov. Morgan had intimated to him that he would seek -to-have the men set at liberty. GRAVEST FEARS FELT. Sheriff Sets Out for Magistrate Taken Prisoner. MADISON, W. Va., August 30.— Sheriff John H. Hill of Boone county left today for a point on the Boone- Logan line, near Sharples, where, it was said, Magistrate Mitchell and three Logan county deputy sheriffs were being held captives by the arm- od men into whose hands they fell on Sunday. It was the intention of Sheriff Hiil, his office reported. to locate the cantives and if possible | affect their rele: While there s no direct word here today from the disturbed sec- the border through here this morning on a train bound for that region, the last of scores who have gone through jere since Sunday morning. No estimate the situation expressed the opinion that it had been increased to more than a thousand within the past few days. Boone county, according to the au- thorities, was quiet, no disturbance being reported from any part. There are no deputy sheriffs here except the few men who assist Sheriff Hill in the routine work of his office. ISLANDS SEEK LOAN.

North Carolinian Health Officer Finds Decline of 76 for Year. RALEIGH, N. C., August 30.— Coupling the statement of Secretary of Agriculture Henry C. Wallace that the food supply in the south is this year more adequate than usual with the reports of investigations made in twelve southern states that indicate in five, Dr. W. S.
