POSSIBILITY OF STRIKES ON
EASTERN RAILWAYS DAILY A.
BECOMING REMOTE.
WILL SETTLE WITH FIREMEN
ERIE SYSTEM WISHES TO NEGO.
TATE SCALES WITH OTHER
EMPLOYEES FIRST.

New York, Nov. 14.-There now ap-
pears no danger of strike Of rail-
road employees in the East, as the sit
uation with reference to the demand
OF the members Of certain organiza-
tons has considerably cleared. The
New York, New Haven and Hartford
and the New York Central railroads
came to an agreement with commit
tees representing the flremen of the
two roads affecting the status Of the
men on the new electric locomotives
and the adjustment committee Of the
Erie locomotive engineers announced
it had come to an agreement with the
officials. The fremen's committee
will confer further with the New York
Central and the New York, New Ha-
ven and Hartford officials concerning
increased wages and shorter hours.
After the first session Of the engi-
neers' adjustment committee with AS
sistant General Manager A. J. Stone
at the Offices Of the Erie railway it
was announced that settlement had
been reached with the engineers on a
mileage instead OF a per diem basis.
1t was stated at the Offices Of the
Erie system that there will be no
trouble in reaching an agreement with
The flremen at the proper time, as
President Underwood's letter to Chief
Hanrahan was not refusal to grant
concessions to the dissatisfied men,
but simply request to hold of until
settlements could be made with yard
men, switchmen. brakemen and other
employees of the company. 1t was said
that when these adjustments shall
have been made the demands of the
hremen will be taken up and those
considered reasonable will be granted.
The vote Of the Erie road firemen
ON the proposal to strike for their de-
mands has not yet been completed.
Returns tended to show that the men
are practically unanimous in upholding
the action of their committee. The
vcompany's officials, however, pointed
out that, even il the men do vote for
a strike, another conference will prob
ably be held, and after that the entire
question may be submitted to arbitra-
ton

Office in Colorado.
Denver, Nov. 14.-Leaders of both
big political parties announce that no
more women will be nominated for
office, except possibly state superin-
tendent of schools. They say Colo
RADIO voters, time and again, have reg
istered their protest against women
holding Office Equal suffrage Is dead,
they declare.
Four women ran for the house Of
representatives recently, three Of them
on the Democratic ticket and the 9th
er ran on the Socialist ticket. All were
defeated by decisive majorities.
1t was during Governor Waite's ad-
ministration that equal suffrage was
granted residents of Colorado. An act,
passed Dec. 2. 1898, by vote Of 49,.
1913 to 29,451, accorded women the
same voting rights as men.
The legislature of 1895 had three fe-
male members OF the house, that of
1897 had two, while In 1899 only one
woman was elected to that body, and
none since then.
No woman ever has been elected to
the state senate.

days session of the twenty-sixth an
nual convention of the American Fed
Grafton Of Labor In this city was full

report showed that the federation's
compaign fund amounted to $S.056.S9.

can, first vice president of the Amer
lean Federation Of Labor. The labor
press is well represented at the pres
ent convention and while the conven-
ton Is in session an effort will be

Americans who seek to do business
In Cuba are confronted with peculiar
variety of peculation-appropriation OF
trademarks. The department of COM
merce and labor issues warning to
all manufacturers who have any
thought of exporting goods to Cuba.
If they do not Immediately register
their trademarks, others will.
Spectators are using the trade
marks of popular American goods, and
the manufacturer of the genuine arti-
Gle when he enters the Cuban market
finds himself compelled to buy out the
speculator if he wishes to market his
wares under the proper name. When
the Spectator registers trademark
he has a hold on the American manu-
facturer, and he may demand and col
lect any price,
In some instances spectators hold
ing the Cuban rights to bridesmaids
of American manufacturers have COM
PEELED the manufacturer to pay them
a royalty.
1t is therefore essential that Ameri-
cans protect themselves by paying the
$3.50 required for registration and
thus prevent the confiscation Of their
trademarks.
