Mr.. Powers pointed out that the ponce

ROAD TO THE OLD WORLD
Daring Globe Trotter Returns From
Dangerous Trip Through
Siberia.

Seattle, Wash, July 29.-One of the
chief results of the world -girdling trip of
Harry De Windt is practical project to
link Asia aid North America with a rail-
read De Windt arrived here yesterday
after hazardous overland trip across
. the steppes of Siberia.
! AS member of the staff Of the London
Daily Express, the observations he has
made his earth betting expedition are
expected to attract attention from imam
eiers and capitalists who, De Windt be-
lieves, will take advantage Of the proposal
to connect Alaska and the northeastern
extremity of Asia by means of railroad
that must eventually play an important
part in the worlds commerce and ad-
vancemenE. t..
In an interview Mr. De Windt said:
II should say that the railway project
is feasible, though no railway will fol-
low the route which we took. 1t would go
several hundred miles to the southwark,
and through a rich mineral country.
g" Privately 1 received the information
that the Russians are surveying such a
dine, but am not at liberty to say exact
Iy what course it will take.
The only difficulty which is in the way
is in transferring at Bering straits. The
great distance makes tunnel impractic-
able and the miles of ice foes, constantly
moving, are a serious bar to navigation.
- However, this problem may be
solved and undoubtedly such road will
be built"

that play will be confined to the after-
noon unless the play should get behind
the schedule. ..sr#

Omaha, Neb., July 29.-The Union Pa
citic strike has been complicated by de-
mand which the trainmen, brakemen and
conductors in the freight service are pre-
pairing to make. The trouble is partly
with the schedule of wages and partly
with the manner in which the rule Of
''first in.i frst out" is administered by
the subordinate officials.
According to present plans the demand
will be made by the grievance committee
of the trainmen early in August
A prominent official of the order said
last night that the Union Pacific was not
the only road Involved, but that 1t was
only, a starter on a general demand tor
increased pay to be made on every road
in the country. The train service men
would stand together to force all ads
to grant the demand. y On. the Union Pa
cific the demand will be for an increase OF
half q cent "a mile. t.-. sd 9.

have any effect on the shopmen's strike.

Mr. Grace says he has receives lnforma-
tion that the Union Pacific was preparing
to import men from England to take the
strikers places in the shops OF its sys-

Washington and has received q reply from

excellent. Strickland had little trouble
In disposing of George Lyman.

hollow fashion. T. X. Thompson, one Of
the best of the new generation of play
