Agreement in Coal Dispute Not Reached
In Johnstown Pennsylvania federal Prohibition Agent C R Stiffler was removed from duty after State Prohibition Director John T Davis arrived. An unconfirmed report suggested Mayer Caustiel faced pressure as dry law enforcement intensified. Townspeople rushed to buy stills, brewers acted as the Mayor ordered beer sale banned, and Johnstown quickly became one of the wettest cities as authorities tried to enforce prohibition. The mayor’s actions and local responses are outlined as officials warn against unsafe water and liquor. A Philadelphia dateline reports a separate joint conference of anthracite operators and miners failed to reach an agreement, with a follow up session scheduled for Monday.
