BISHOP TALBOT SUED BY IRVINE
Deposed Priest Brings Suit For DAM
ages In Philadelphia.


Philadelphia, Jan. 1S.-The contro-
versy between Right Rev. Ethelbert
Talbot. bishop of the Protestant Epis-
copal diocese of Central Pennsylvania,
and Rev. Dr. l. N. w. Irvine took a
new turn, and it is probable that the
whole affair will be aired in the civil
courts. DIR. Irvine filed notice of a suit
for SANDER against Bishop Talbot, ask
ing damages The papers were served
on the bishop, who came to this city
to preside at the meeting of the gen.
eral committee on Sunday school in
struction of the Episcopal church, OF
which he is chairman.
DR.. Irvine's action was the result of
a suggestion made by Rev. DR.. John
Fulton, editor of the Church Standard.
this city, in a letter to Rev. Daniel l.
Odell, of this city, during the early
stages of the controversy. In that let
ter DIR. Fulton made the suggestion
that if Bishop Talbot had made state
ments concerning DR.. Irvine which
were not true he had redress in the
courts. DR.. Irvine held consultation
with an attorney and later filed the
notice of the suit. The papers were
filed with the clerk of the sheriff's
Office and placed in the hands of a
process server, who went in search of
Bishop Talbot and served the notice
upon him.

PENNSY TRAINMEN
VOTE TO STRIKE
Are Unable to Reach an Agreement
With the Company.
OBJECT TO COMPULSORY FIRING

Philadelphia, Jan. 19.-After a pro-
tracted conference, General Manager
". w. Atterbury, of the Pennsylvania
Railroad company, and the board Of
adjustment of the Brotherhood of Rail-
way Trainmen separated without hav-
Ing reached an agreement. w. G. Lee,
first vice grand master of the Brother
hood. who represents the grand lodge
and is acting in conjunction with the
board. informed Mr.. Atterbury that he
regarded any further conferences use
less. He then called meeting of the
board of adjustment for today, when
it is expected final action will be taken
regarding the differences between the
company and the trainmen.
At the conference Mr.. Lee informed
Mr.. Atterbury that the total vote can
vassed was 1916, and that 1865 had
been cast in favor of strike and GIL
against. Should strike be declared by
the board it will affect freight brake
men, yardmen, baggagemen and some
freight conductors on the lines east of
Pittsburg and Erie.
The question at issue is that of COM
pulsory firing by brakemen. The COM
pany requires a freight brakeman to
assist firemen in feeding locomotives
On difficult grades. The vote was con-
fined entirely to this question.
Mr.. Lee. in stating the trainmen's
side of the case. said
mo other railroad company in this
country or Canada has ever asked a
brakeman to fire a locomotive. On all
carried in separate lists. 1t is the de-
sire of the Brotherhood men that they
be kept in separate classes.
THE whole trouble originated in the
laying off of forward brakeman of
each crew by the Pennsylvania rail-
road some months ago. Before that
time the company's freight crews gen.
orally consisted of one more brakeman
than the number carried by other rail-
roads. When that was the case the
trainmen made no objection 10 the
practice of the front brakeman assist
lHs the HTeIueil, Dul WHeU tue extra
brakeman was taken off the men
raised serious objection to it.
THE objection is vesy largely due
to the fact that the brakemen dress to
withstand cold weather. and when they
are compelled to alternately fire and
brake they subject themselves 10 the
risk of contracting pneumonia or, at
the very least, heavy colds.
1T is very true that General Man
ager Atterbury made certain PROPOSE
tons. one of which was that brakemen
doing firemen's work on stipulated
grades, more particularly of the middle
division, and for stipulated distances,
should be paid firemen's wages FOR lie
time they were actually engaged in
firing. This would amount to TIP
cents per hour extra"
Mr.. Lee said it was not a question
Of remuneration, but that the brake
men were unwilling to perform the
duties of another class except in some
extraordinary emergency

BAIL FOR MRS. CHADWICK
FIXED For $4,000 For Five Charges
In Federal Court.

Cleveland Jan. 1S.-Attorney !. P.
Dawley appeared before United States
Circuit Judge Wing and asked that the
amount of bail for the release of Mrs.
Cassie l.. Chadwick be fixed. There are
five indictments against Mrs. Chadwick
in the federal court, and United States
District Attorney Sullivan asked that
bail be fixed at $4,000. Mr. .Dawley
suggested $4,000. Judge Wing compro-
missed the matter by placing the
amount of bail at $4,000. and Attorney
Dawley said this amount would be fur
nished.
This would release Mrs. Chadwick
on the federal charges. There are. how
ever three other indictments against
her in the Cuyahoga county couits. 1t
was said by Mr.. Dawley that he would
at once ask the state courts to fix the
amount of bail for the immediate re-
