RENTERS SEEK IN VAIN.
Realty Agents Have Heavy Demand
for Small Houses.

Real estate men expect the rent rate to
go up. The sudden cool spell that came
upon the city Monday evening brought in
OF persons to Real Estate Row
with persons looking for any kind of build
ing so they could get into shelter before
winter. But few Of them found houses.
The cool spell also brought demands for
houses to sell, and the dealers expect to
close many sales for smaller residence
property this week. BY far the greater
demand Is for houses and lots to be OBJ
tanned for between $500 and $3.50.

treatment and being filed in. Care has been
taken of the running track as yet. on ac-
count of the meet which is talked Of by
John OConnor and Tom Aiken, such an
event requiring the, track to be in first
class condition.
Once this question of the meeting is set

drawn up his schedule nor arranged for the
early games. but definite steps will be ia
ken in this direction Immediately.

WHERE WILL HAYS GO.
Said to Be Slated For Presidency of
of Chicago and Erie.

The Chicago Record Herald says that
Charles M. Hays, until recently pres1-
dent of the Southern Pacific, has been
offered the presidency of the Chicago
and Erie. If he accepts the post Mr..
Hays will within a few months succeed
President Underwood, who, in accord
ance with the present plan, will be made
an official of the new company, which
is to take over the securities of the
Northern Pacific. the Great Northern
and the Burlington.
Just what position is reserved for Mr..
Underwood is not known, but that he
will have charge of the operation of the
three systems there seems to be little
doubt His title is another matter, but
it would not surprise we1l-informed rail-
road men if he became president of the
Northern Pacific. Recent developments
have led to the assertion in certain
circles that Mr. Hill has 81, 500, 900 worth
of Northern Pacific stock in excess of
that owned and controlled by the Harri-
man people, and that he is going to use
schemes.
HILLS USUAL DENIALS.
James J. Hill, president of the Great
Northern railway, was asked at the
company's office in New York city about
the reports persistently circulated in the
past few days that there was to be big
combination for controlling prominent
western railroads by means of pro-
prietary company that would own
majority of the shares of the roads thus
merged. Mr. Hill said: There is no
truth whatsoever in these reports of
great consultations, and 1 am surprised
the public should swallow them. There
will be no change in the organization of
any roads with which am connected"
There would seem, however, Mr..
HILL" persisted his questioner, that
there is something doing looking to the
formation of a company that shall mold
Great Northern stock
THAT" replied Mr.. Hill, has been
under discussion for years. I won't say
a word about it,
Mr.. Hill was questioned regarding the
status of Erie railroad af. irs, in which
company he has held a large block of
stock.
There is not a scintilla of truth"
said Mr.. Hill, lin the statement that I
have sold my Erie stock. 1 am be-
lever in the future of the property AS
to the report that F. D. Underwood,
president of the Erie, is going to leave
the road, that I know is not true

NEWS OF THE CONFERENCE.
a Batch of Items Contributed by One
of the Gang"

Railroad men are notorious for their
love OF a joke, and the people who are
here in Topeka from all over the cen
trail part of the United States, as repre-
sentatives of the Santa Fe freight traf-
fic, are an exceptionally jovial lot
There have been great doings at the
Copeland in the evenings, when the
men are not tied UP with railroad mat
terS.
Ask one of the freight men for news.
and the chances are about seven to one
that he will tell you about a good joke
on some other freight agent
One of the gang volunteered to fur
nish a few good news items about the
freight conference, and this is the m esS
of copy which he ground out:
Il. r. Delaney, agent at Wichita for
the Santa. Fe is registered at the Cope
land, and when not in attendance at
the meeting of freight agents, puts in
his time extOlling the virtues of his pat
ent hair and youth restorer.. Mr.. De-
laney is at the head of the trust that
controls the output. He is not only
making money from his connection with
this enterprise but has renewed his hair
and retained the vigor of young man
hood by using his own medicine. No
doctor would dare do that.
IF. c. ONeil is freight and passenger
agent of the Santa Fe at Oklahoma
City He is a genial fellow, well liked
by all who know him. He considers
every one TO De ABOVE suspicion anu dC-
cepts people at their own valuation.
Sometimes his confidence is misplaced
but that does not affect him. He is a
great admirer of DR.. Seagraves, also of
the Santa Fe force. This however, bears
no rela ton to what befell him on a re-
cent trip over one of the branch lines.
ONeil doesn't say much about the oc-
currence but those on the inside know
what he thinks when they find him
looking in the windows of the clothing
stores
actor folks consider it a great adj
vantage to look the part. But Charley
Mum, of Topeka, thinks that it is
mighty tough for a railroad man to look
the part of a big official and not be
able to draw the salary. One of the
Santa Fe division superintendent from
the west end mistook Charley for a
Chicago official last night in the Cope
land corridor, and of course Charley
thinks he ought to have the increase
pay on the strength of it,
&c. A. Walker. who not only looks
like an actor but also looks after the
Santa FEES interest in Hutchinson, went
home today on No. 1. His reason was
business, but those who know say it
was because some Wichita and Okla
homa City friends are here and he was
afraid they might say something about
his last experience when wandering
from his own fireside.''

Speaking of the disagreement be-
tween the Santa Fe railway and the
city of Colorado Springs concerning
some street crossings, Chief Engineer
w. B. Storey, who was present at the
conference with the representatives or
Colorado Springs, says:

newspapers The matter is all peaceful
as far as we are concerned Mr.. Ken

Parker and myself met with the Colo
RADIO Springs gentlemen and simply
made a straight business proposition to
them. They were at liberty to accept
it or reject it, as they deemed best.
The proposition was made several
months ago, and understood that Mr..
Nudge told the committee the offer
should remain open for several months.
I'VE asked the city to vacate Huer-
fano street, in consideration of which
we offered to build 5000 subway I'M

The council committee told us that
Castillo avenue was too narrow, and
we offered to widen it at an expense OF
$4,000. Our offer was so generous thaS
by the city representatives. When we
stay to discuss the question further
We simply left it with the council to
consider. There was no attempt on our
part to ride high horse over the
city. We made a fair proposition II
the city does not want to accept it,
all right. We have no controversy with

country or throughout large sections
where the conditions of business are
generally similar. A growing movement
is noted toward esta blishing state and
local machinery for arbitration in the
bituminous coal industry, where there
is now, at least in most mining dis
trlctS, no effective method for diSpoSing
of the minor disputes which arose from
time to time. In this trade there is
especially no permanent joint commit
tee for the entire central competitive
field to which differences arising in con-
nection with the interstate agreement
may be ultimately referred Systems
of arbitration as to specific disputes
have been, however, established in a
formal manner and on a national scale
in the stove molding, the general foun
dry, the machinists (now not in exist
ence) and the printing trades. Among
these the printing trade is the only one
which provides for reference of the dis
pute to an outside person where the
direct representatives of the two sides
fail to agree. The report praises state
boards of arbitration for doing much
toward furthering industrial peace.
Legislation establishing compulsory
arbitration as yet has been enacted
only in the Australasian colonies of New
Zealand and West Australia, where the
system is very far reaching. The repre-
sentatfves of employers and working
men who have testified before the com
mission almost uniformly have opposed
compulsory arbitration Several state
boards of arbitration in the United
States also have expressed their opin-
ion against compulsory arbitration as a
general principle, and one or two of the
boards have specifically opposed it in
any form. State arbitration boards in
New York, Indiana, Ohio and Illinois
have compulSion in certain cases. as

LABOR DISPUTES.
Report of Industrial Commission Is
Made Public

Washington. Oct. 1S.-The industrial
commission today made public it's re-
port on labor disputes and arbitration
1t is a comprehensive document review
ing the testimony of the witnesses that
have appeared before the commission
on the subject and takes up in detail
the evidence on collective bargaining,
Cancellation and arbitration and the
laws and court decisions governing la
Dor combinations. Local systems of col
1ective bargaining and agreements be-
tween employees it is stated have been
most highly developed in the building
trades, the brewery, boot and shoe,
baking, wood working and metal work
ing trades, some branches of the cloth
ing trade and in the transportation
business; in other words, where both
employers and employees are strongest
organized By far the larger number of
written agreements prescribing the con-
ditions of labor are made between or
