MAKE DEMANDS
ON THE SANTA FE
OFFICIALS AND ATTORNEYS OF
OIL PRODUCERS MEETING
WITH TRAFFIC MANAGER.
Needs Include Rate of Fifteen Cents
Per Hundred Pounds From Kan
a to Gulf, Extension Of Kansas
Legal Rates to Other States and
Less Stringent Rules.

Kansas City, Mo-, April 2s.-Omcials
and attorneys of the Kansas Oil Pro-
ducers' association went into confer
ence at IL a. m. with J. E. German,
freight traffic manager Of the Santa
Fe, and other officials of the road, to
receive its answer to the demands
made by the producers. These in
clude the establishment of a rate of
Is cents per 100 pounds on crude oil
from Kansas to the Gulf of Mexico,
the extension Of rates approximating
those fixed for Kansas by the legisla-
ture to other states and territories the
system traverses, and the abolition of
restrictive rules governing shipments.
A lucent rate to the Gulf, the produc-
ers say, would enable them to export
oil. Equitable rates along the Santa
Fe would make the use Of oil as fuel
possible in hundreds of manufacturing
towns. If the demands are refused, the
producers intend to press the suit
against the Santa Fee and carry the
fight to congress and the legislatures
of neighboring states.
Crawford, a member Of the produc-
ers' advisory committee. announced
that the Santa Fee bad agreed to fur
nish tank cars promptly without dis
elimination and abolish the rule re-
quiring the unloading OF tanks at de-
livery points. He said he believed the
producers would gain every point. The
conference will probably last all the
afternoon. Rates are now under dis
cussion.

The outlook for an early collapse of
the strike is more gloomy today the
situation is distinctly more menacing.
The council of workmen's delegates,
or strike committee, are manifestIy
encouraged by the extension of the
strike in ST. Petersburg, various or
CARNATIONS including the bank clerks,
telephone girls and some of the pro
visional leagues having voted to join
in the movement. Moreover, it is
certain that the workmen's council mas
received mysterious supplies of funds
and consequently they present bold
er front. Practically all the pre-
texts based on economic demands have
been abandcred, although the eight
hour day figures in the oratory at meet
ings in order to hold the worhmen who
have TO thought except Improvement
in their material coraitio2. The work
mems council returned a scornful reply
to Count Whites personal appeal to
"his brother workmen" ridiculing the
governments profession of solicitude
for the workmen and renewing the de-
mand for the immediate abolition Of
martial law in Poland, etc. Count
Witte's attempt to negotiate directly
with the strike leaders has come to
naught, although he offered concessions
in the case of the Cronstadt mutineers
in case of their being condemned to
death. But the leaders refused all
compromise.
