WASHINGTON, D. C.-Chairman
Stone of the Brotherhood of Locomo
tive Engineers followed Acting Presi
dent Sheppard of the conductors’
brotherhood yesterday In opposition to
the compulsory arbitration bill upon
which hearings have been had for
several days by the house committee
of interstate and foreign commerce.
All the representatitves of the train
men, and Samuel Gompers, president
of American Federation of Labor, have
opposed this bill in so far as it would
make a strike illegal while the differ
ences between the railroads and their
employees were being investigated.
The bill is patterned after the Cana
dian act and is a large item in the
president’s railroad program.
All the representatives of the train
men have taken the position that, if
there must be any legislation, which
they preferred there should not be,
they advocated a board of a small
number of former trainmen, engine
men, switchmen or some branch of the
work, and the same number from the
operating side of the railroad offici
als; but they object to legislation
which shall prohibit a strike while
such board is investigating, however
short the time that might be allowed
for such an investigation be, and they
favor such a board’# findings having
no other force than of recommenda
tions, with whatever further authority
public opinion behind them would
give.
That, they say, is sufficient, and no
legislation prohibiting a strike, pend
ing such investigation, is necessary
since the brotherhoods will never
strike until such an investigation has
been had. Legislation forbidding a
strike at any time is all in favor of
the railroad, the brotherhood heads
say.
That the brotherhood heads have
made a good impression on the com
mittee is indicated by the frequent ex
change of cordial remarks and the
apparent desire of the committee to
get at, very carefully, just what the
| brotherhoods desire. Although it was
! put in the form of a question, Chair
man Adamson of the committee al
i most stated that the committee would
be unlikely to favor any legislation
which did not work justice to so fine
a class of men as the chairman had
come to consider the railroad workers,
as a result of his extensive acquaint
anace with them.
Chairman Adamson’s questions en
abled Mr. Stone to bring out state
ments in his testimony that “every
safety device,” adopted by the rail
roads, had been on the recommenda
tion of the brotherhoods, and, “in
spite of the opposition of the rail
roads.” Despite all this, he said, the
railroads are hauling freight 6 per
cent cheaper in cost of labor per
thousand ton mile, than 10 years ago.
Hearings on the bill are now prac
tically completed. It is likely that it
will be radically changed before being
reported, but considerable discussion
in executive session is expected before
the form is agreed upon. The commit
tee is evidently loath to report a bill
winch does not provide machinery for
making a tie-up of the railroads im
possible pending investigation and ar
bitration, but has given careful heed
to the brootherhood’s statement that
any prohibition of a strike enable the
railroads to, prepare for a strike, re
move labor’s strongest weapon and
thereby encourages the railroads to
adopt an even less willing attitude in
granting improvements in the matter
of hours and wages.
Taking the right to strike away
from the railroad men, even for a
short time during the pendency of de
cision of official arbitrators, will, Mr.
Sheppard said, “Induce the railroads
to resist proper wage and hour ad
justments.”
“If the brotherhoods had been let
alone last summer, I believe that 48
hours would have settled the thing.
There would have been a strike, but
not longer than that. Wall street,
I mean the owners of the railroads,
started out on the theory that the
men did not mean what they said and
adopted a hard and fast attitude
against the demands of the brother
hoods.” The railroads would have
yielded as soon as they had an ac
tual strike on their hands, he said.
AT THE EMPRESS.
iY Play Made Famous by the Late
Richard Mansfield.
“The Social Highwayman,” featur
ing Edwin August with Ormi Haw
ey, at the Empress theatre this Tues
day and Wednesday, February 27 and
58, scored one of the late Richard
Mansfield’s most substantial succes
ses.
As a photoplay it is equally note
vorthy, being enhanced by the genius
)f the two stars already Mentioned,
and the realistic atmosphere of a lav
ish and painstaking production. The
picture is unusually interesting, over
flowing with society problems, yet
far different from the usual run of
society plays. Instantly it grasps
ind holds the audience in suspense,
md, at the finale the nobler instinct
>f the “Social Highwayman” is arous
ed. Now he confesses his misdeeds to
the girl he loves, and how he sets
about rebuilding his life, to be wor
thy of her; forms an inspiring and en
thralling conclusion to a consistently
excellent photoplay.
Pathe News showing current events
of the world, form a part of this most
interesting program. 521

lirst as was intended. This makes it necessary for us to remain in our present store for
several days longer. In the meantime, although most of our goods are ready for mov

sell them at greatly reduced prices.
The announcement of the date of our removal to our new store will be made
later.
