Railroads Propose Arbitration Clause

Chicago, May 14.-A movement has
begun by the management of Chicago
railroads to compel labor organiza-
tions to agree to submit differences
to arbitration whenever negotiations
between roads and employees fail. The
lead in the movement is apparently
being taken by the Rock Island, the
Burlington and one or two other
strong western lines. Thus far, how
ever, the proposition regarding ulti.
mate arbitration has been either re-
fused or lodged by the labor organiza-
tions. The arbitration clause is be-
Ing proposed with view of ensuring
results and increasing the probability
of both sides beginning negotiations
with case which they are not afraid
to sumbit to the public.

Professor Adolph Lorenz, the Aus

nished the feature of the Surgical and
Orthopedic associations. To the sur
gical association the case of Charles
Willett, operated upon last November
by DR.. LorenZ, for club feet was pre-
sented. Although one of excessive
difficulty, tho operation was pro.
nounced perfect success. No de.
cision specially condemnatory Of Lo.
renz's methods was elected, but some
of the more conservative members Of
the association were adverse in their
criticisms. The statement was made
that the operation Of DR.. Lorenz upon
Lolita Armour, daughter OF j. Ogden
Armour of Chicago, to perform which
the Austrian surgeon had come to the
United States, had not proved entirely
successful. 1t was evident from the
tone of the discussion that majority
