Indianapolis, Ind., Oct. 15.' Four
hundred thousand coal miners' were or
dered to strike 'November 1 in a call
issued today by John L. Lewis, acting
president of the United Mine- Workers
of America.
The order affects practically all bi
'tmninous miners in the United States.
It was issued following failure of the
union leaders and operators represent
atives to get together nud settle wage
demands made by the millers. "
Although the order affects only 400, -j
00". men directly, it was announced
at offices of the United Mine Workers
of America that more than a half anil
lion will respond. In fields where la
bor ib only partly organized, it was
predicted miners not union will wal'i
out with their co-workprs.
The strike is the direct result of the
conference between miner and opera-tort
representatives . at (Philadelphia
which adjourned Saturday without
reaching an agreement. At this con
ference nn effort was made to formu

Albert Declines ;
Invitation Sen t
To Visit Salem
REMAINS HOME
Apparently under the influence, of a
strange hallucination that a number of
men are pursuing him to all parts of tho
world where he goes -a man giving tho
name of Jack Byan, age 42, was taken
into cuHtsdyat the Southern Pacific do
pot at nine o'clock Tuesday night, nud
was being held in the city jail Wed
nesday. On receipt of information that
stranger was loitering in the vicinity
of the depot and soemcd afraid that
someone would seo him, Officers Mof
fit. and BrunBon mounted a motorcycle
and hurried to make the arrest.
Chief :f Police Varney is puzzled by
the mim's story. He apparently is rat
ional, and clever, in any other subject.
Byan says that several years ago e
consented to pose as a character for
several men cnghged in writing a book.
The book, however, would novor - be
comnloted until Byan had suffered bod
ily --Injur? and had died. The author of.
the book,, the man sayB, is a tall fel
low with a black mustache, and who is
master of Hindu mystery and tho
occult. '
Much of the book had boon written,
Ryan told police Wednesday, and jthe
timo had ccme when ho must suffer the
nameless torture prescribed by tho tall,
mustiuchod man, and die.
It was to escape this, Byan says, that
he fled from Portland to Oregon City
several days ago. The men who arc pur
suing him, ho says, discovered that he
was in Oregon City, and called at his
rooming house to see him. He crawled
undor the bed, according to his story,
and waited until they had left. Then
he came to Salem, only to discover that
tho men had followed him here in an
auto.
Police Inspector Swenncs, of Portland
who was visiting in Salom yesterday,
questioned tho man in his cell. Inspector
Hwennos, who has had lots of exper
ience with criminals, is equally puzzled.
Ho hinted that Byan might have been
implicated in a " job" with other crooks
and that hey were hunting him down
to slay him und insure his silence. But
Ryan denied this. When asked by In
spector flwcnneB if ho was a "lamp-
stcr" the fellow said no. Very tew
know the mcuning of the term "lamp-
stor", whieh means "convict" and the
man's' familiarity with prison vernacu
lar leads authorities hero to believe that
ho might have served "time" some
where. Chief Varney said that his men were
looking for tho "tall, mustnehed man"
and his t;soeiates.
An examination of the man's sani
ty, conducted by Ir. Roy D. Byrd in
the sheriff's office, resulted in his
committment to the state hospital.

. SUNDAY SCHOOL DAY
Washington. Oct. 15. President Sam-
uel Gomners of the American Federation
of Labor is seriously ill at his home
here today and will be unable to attend
sessions of ho national industrial con
ference today. '
Gompers' illness was announced Dy
nnmbers o? the labor grCup which Gom
pers has led since the start of. the con-
fi-one.(i.
The statement announcing' Gompers
illnss said t
'Mr. Gompers returned home rrom
the industrial conference last evening
very wrcatlv exhausted nnd immediately
went to bed. Mis pnysiciau, ui.
Parker, was called to see him. He found
Mr. Gompers in a state of nervous ex
haustion with a temperature or iui uc-
grees. The doctor said it would he au
solutely necessary for Mr. Gompers to
remain in bed."
Gomoers' illness followed a speech
urging adoption of tho resolution to
mediate the steel striKe at me comer
ence yesterday.
Gompers was suffering unusual ne-i
pression yesterday because of the fact
that it WW the anniversary of his
daughter's death. His wife suffered n
e-aralvtic stroke last June and has been
helpless since. Gompers never fully re
covered lis strength since his accident
several months ago in New York. The
cumulative effeet of his cares-and his
own physical suffering have made his
lieutennntu in the labor movement un
jnsy concerning him for some time.
