The strike situation tonight was considered more hopeful by the fact that the peace conver sations between the government ana vthe coal miners' leaders were con ' tlnuincr unbroken. There were no new developments, however. At a joint meeting- tomorrow be tween the rail men and miners, from which it is hoped peace may spring:, the suggestion may be made that the raiimen postpone their strike, set for Sunday night, should there be no agreement between the government and miners by Saturday until after the trade unions conference on "Wednesday. The greatest anxiety exists among Londoners, for If the rail strike be comes effective Sunday night, the underground tube railways will cease working. Also the trams and buses will suspend operations. The bus and tram drivers, however, have xpressed themselves as reluctant to Join the movement. Railroad Men Are Divided. There is division among the rail road men with regard to a strike, a large section of them opposing it. J. II. Thomas, general secretary of the National Union of Railway Men has authorized the statement that he is gainst the strike. This has brought about the very - reneral opinion that there will not in any case be a rail strike before "Wednesday, but should it transpire, the ministry of transport has an emergency plan in readiness for im mediate operation of the railways by volunteers and all -machinery created for the purpose during last year's atrlke willj be utilized. Food Supply In Considered. Ttobert Williams, general secretary ef the transport workers, announced regarding the enrollment of volun teers by the government that the transport men "look upon the danger r the enrollment of volunteers, espe cially from the middle class' and "White Guards of the community, as of more provocation tnan the use of troopc." Consequently, continued the an nuunurmrni. tne transport men are considering the granting of permits In the event of an extension of the coal strike, by which the appropriate trade unions would provide the nec avssary food for the community. The National Union of Railway Men, It also was announced, decided today to invite the miners' executive to meet the railway conferees tomorrow. The miners' executive has been sum moned to London and will meet to K union's tituatic morrow to consider the railwav invitation and the genera on. Premier Mffta t llk Cabinet. While these activities were being developed. Premier Lloyd George and the cabinet were consulting infor mally with a view to finding a chan net ior a senement. upinion gen erally expressed in government cir rles was that a definite opportunity for negotiations would be found be fore any serious development aroee from tho threats of the railroad men and transport workers. In the house of commons Edward Fhortt, the home secretary, gave no lice or tne presentation of a bill to make exceptional provision for the jirotection of the community in cases of emergency. The announcement is interpreted by the press as meaning that the measure is intended to bear on the strike situation. ine oesiraDiiity ior a cession of the house of commons Saturday to ra.ss tho emergency bill was con eidered.

PARTY TO START HOME Stops Today Will Be Last and Special-Is Scheduled to Ar rive Here Sunday. BY BEN ITTTR LAMPVAN. PENDLETON, Or., ' Oct. 22. (Spe cial.) In time of famine, if the world were to feel a sensation of acute hunger at the pit of its tremendous stomach, there is a certain county of Oregon that would heap higrh the bakery shelves and work to rout the wolf. It grows wheat by the section and the double section, and many multiplications thereof, and at this season of the year its stubblef ields from skyline to skyline attest the harvest that is past. It is .Umatilla, the premier wheat county of Oregon, and one of the most dependable pro ducers of breadstuffs. area for area, to be found in the search of conti nents. The Portland trade excursionists entered Umatilla this morning, and paused at daybreak in the town of Athena, in tho Walla Walla -valley, close to the Washington boundary. Snow Powders Mountains. The Blue mountains lie to the east ward, their broad summits powdered with snow and hazy with distance, but from their bastions to westward lie the fairest green fields in all Ore gon. Folks say of the Walla Walla country, which, by the way, is named for the river that rises in Oregon, and is not to be confused with the Washington province across the state line., that it is merely a quesi tion of its soil' and season whether will grow a 50 or 60-bushcl crop of wheat The trade excursionists -smiled a trifle at this, but it was the. friendly smile of fellow enthusiasts and they regarded the broad dun fields, with the checkerings of black summer fal low, as guarantees of the solidity and future of Oregon. At Athena a brief halt was made while the trade emis saries made new acquaintances, and in mid-morning the special visited Weston and the companion towns of Milton and Freewater.

' These .twain thrive in such close companionship that the station name is hyphenated and the two communi ties are to vote on the building of a $20,000 union high school to serve ten districts of the Walla Walla valley. The bond issue,, which is to come be foVe the voters on November 16, is held to be practically assured of ap proval. Weston hosts dashed up to the sta tion in automobiles as the train drew in, and for half an hour the Portland I visitors fraternized with residents of this elder city of the Umatilla j oountry. inero are tan locust trees along tne streets of Weston, testifying to the j maturity of the former frontier town. And as ior progressive spirit, other cities of Oregon may humbly seek in struction there. Weston has built, by public subscription, a fine memorial hall to its soldiers, sailors and pi oneers, a self-sustaining enterprise, deriving its revenues from the opera tion of a motion picture theater in the hall itself, under the direction of S. A. Barnes. Pendleton Shown Hospitality. The halt at Pendleton, this after noon and tonight, which marks the near departure from Eastern Oregon, was signalized by the hospitality of the Round-up city, which bears it self with the pride of self-assurance. At the banquet given in the parish house of the Church of the Redeemer, with 75 Pendleton business and pro fessional men foregathering with the western pilgrims, local orators left no doubt of the fact that they deem the mission of their city to be the leadership of the eastern territory, and that they are ready in all ways to work with Portland toward the realization of a greater state.

Roope and Frederick Greenwood on behalf of Portland. Party Met by Delegation. At Milton-Freewater, the five-score Portland business men were met by a genial delegation of citizens from the two towns, and were taken on an hour's tour of the surrounding terri tory. The two towns themselves with but a single street dividing their in corporated districts, are communities where both homes and public build ings speak for the substantial nature of their prosperity. Round about them are gathered the wheat fields of the Walla Walla country, with 60,000 acres under ir rigation from the Walla Walla river, green with orchards and alfalfa, where the stream has touched the soil.

Washington, Oct. 22, Democrats and republicans appear equally amused at President Wilson's appointment of Theodore Marburg of Baltimore to one of the republican places on the shipping board. About ten days ago Marburg, who had been prominent in the republican party of Maryland for many years, announced his support of Cox for president, and for sev eral days has been campaigning for the democratic ticket It is assumed that this step qual ified him for appointment as a re publican member of the board, being in line withvMr. Wilson's long and unbroken policy of preserving the right to answr - the . question for himself, "What is a republican?" It i not expected that the repub lican leaders will make any special protest against the Marburg appoint ment, although the law is specific in its requirement that both political parties be represented on the board. It is wholly improbable that the new appointees will be confirmed by the senate. They can hold under recess appointments until congress adjourns oa March 4, because, while there will be no confirmation, there will not be a rejection, it being understood that al of the late appointments of the president will bo permitted to slumber in committee instead of be ing brought before an executive ses sion of the senate for approval. The places wiU then become vacant for the new president to fill. ' 2-CENT LETTER FAVORED Burleson Contemplates No Increase in Request to Congress. "WASHINGTON. Oct. 22.

TEN PREVIOUSLY 'HELD Technical Errors in Tru Bills Are Corrected "Witnesses reclare Chase Chief Plotter. CHICAGO, Oct. 22. Indictments against 13 persons believed to have been implicated in the "throwing" of games in the 1919 world's series by Chicago American league players were returned today by the special Cook county grand Jury, which bas been Investigating the baseball scan dal for more than a month. Further indictments are expected when the jury convenes again next week, state officials declared. Indictments against 10 men, named today, previously had been voted, but were re-voted to overcome legal tech nicalities while the other three Abe Attel, Hal Chase and William Burns had only been unofficially mentioned in connection with the investigation. Conspiracy Is Ihargrd. All of the indictments charge con spiracy to commit an illegal act, a crime for which a penitentiary sen tence can be given under the laws of Illinois. Chase and Burns, ex-major league players, and Attell, once the feather weight boxing champion of tho world, have been accused by witnesses of being three of tho "framed" the world series and ar ranged to bribe the Chicago White Sox players for sums to range from ,2000 to 10,000 to try to lose jramea in the contests for the world baseball championship. According to testimony, "at least several hundred thousand dollars" was bet and won on the world series. Chase was the first man to suggest "throwing" the series, it - was said, and called In the others to help him. 1.11 rare Bcis Are Reported. Harry Long, a Chicagoan. told the jury he alone placed $27,000 in bets on Cincinnati for "Sport" Sullivan of Boston and testimony has been re ceived concerning many other large bets, it was said. Besides Chase. Attell and Burns, today's indictments covered two al leged gamblers Sullivan and a man known to the jury only as "Brown" ' and the eight players owned by the Chicago American league club, against whom true bills previously had been voted. They were Joe Jackson and Oscar Felsch, outfielders; Eddie Clcotte and Claude Williams, pitch ers; "Swede" Risberg, shortstop; "Chick" Gandil. first baseman in 1919, but who was not in the. big leagues this year; Fred McMullin, utility in fielder, and "Buck" Weaver, third baseman. Williams, Jackson and Cicotte previously had made sworn confessions before the jury. Three to Fight Case. Cicotte said he received JlO.CrOO. while Williams said he received J10.000, which he split with Jackson, who confirmed the statements of the two pitchers. Weaver, McMullin and Ritiberg have announced that they will fight the case and contest the suspension placed on all the eight players by Owner Charles A. Comis key. Officials of the state's attorney's office today revealed sufficient of the jury proceedings to tshow that testi mony has been given that Chase, who was expelled from the major leagues and barred from league parks in the west for alleged gambling, was one of the chief instigators of the game belling. The jury was said to have received more testimony concerning Chase than any of the others. President Ileydlcr of the National league, Garry Herrmann, owner of the Cincinnati Reds; Manager McGraw, President Stoneman, Fred Toney and Benny Kauff of the New York Giants and others testified concerning the man who during his major league career was known as the "prince of first basemen." "Witnesses Accuse Chase This testimony was said to chow that Chase approached Attell before the 1919 world series and asked him if he could raise $100,000 with which to bribe the Chicago players and If they could place larger sums in bets. Attell was said to have gone to a New York gambler mentioned in connec tion with the jury investigation and also to have approached "Sport" Sul livan on the proposition. Chase, ac cording to the testimony, also was said to have approached Sullivan, telephoning him from the room in New York occupied by Jean Dubuc. former Detroit pitcher. Through the activities of Chase and Attell. offi cials said the testimony showed, the deal which "threw" the world series and wrecked the championship Chi cago club was arranged.
