GOMPERS STANDS
BY UNION Men
Declares They Are Not Re.
SpOnSibIe For the Many
Railroad Wrecks

BY Our own Wire. Publishers Press
WASHINGTON, March 2s.-Presi-
dent Samuel Gompers. Of the American
Federation Of Labor, to-day. in a signed
article in the Federauonist resents the
attempt OF the railroad managers by
inuendo to shift the blame from them
selves to the Railway Mems Unions for
the many wrecks that have recently
shocked the country.
1t is not strange that the public has
placed the blame where IL rightfully be-
longs-that is, on the management OF
the railroads-nor is it strange that
the railroad managers should by some
manner Of means endeavor to throw the
odium from their own shoulders 10
those OF others and what more reason
able than that the managers should en-
deavor 10 throw the odium in some form
or other upon the unions Of labor. At
least those prejudiced against organized
labor viii be willing to believe the as
persion, no matter how far-fetched and
puerile the charge.
AT the recent conference OF railroad
presidents in Chicago. it was given out
that the awful wrecks are due TO a lack
of discipline among the employees. and
the question; Are the labor unions ~
sponsible for the majority of the
wrecksg seems to have been answered
IN the affirmative by these railroad
presidents"

WILL USE STEEL CARS

Comprehensive plans for the substitu-
tion Of alllsteel for wooden passenger cars
on the Pennsylvania Railroad system are
contained in a report just completed by a
special committee Of the operating heads
Of the company. which has been studying
the subject for many months. Consider
alton Of the matter was prompted by the
numerous wrecks, not only on the Penn
sylvania lines. but on those of every other
road in the country which have occurred
during the last year.
Final arrangements for the presentation
Of the report have been completed. and ii
will be in the hands Of James McCrea.
president of the Pennsylvania, in few
days. The committee which prepared the
report comprises Theodore n. Ely. chief
Of motive power; General Manager w. w.
Atterbury G. L. Peck. general manager
Of the Pennsylvania lines west, and Ralph
Peters. president and general manager
Of the Long Island Railroad.
Such a revolution in rolling stock is ex-
pected to take several years to accom-
plish. but within the next three years the
Pennsylvania expects to buy or construct
1000 all-steel passenger cars. Railroad men
believe that many of the deaths which
have occurred in railroad ccidents in this
country were due to the passengers being
burned I'D after the wreck was over, and
It is figured that this would be done away
with by the use Of the. steel cars. and
that telescoplng which is a prominent
feature Of railroad wrecks would be elm
mated.

with his demand for a lmaoy commission.
Thaw's examination by the iunacy board
was such. it is believed. as to have about
convinced the examiners that he is sane
within the meaning Of the statute-that he
shall have knowledge Of his position and
be able to advise with his counsel as to

Thaws lawyers are enthusiastic over the
way he came through the examination.
They believe he will make equally as good
a showing when he appears before the
commission tomorrow morning and that
It will report that he is sane on Monday
when the jury will meet again.
While Justice Fitzgerald may reject the
commissions report it is not likely he
will do so and in the event Of report
favorable to Thaw there will be nothing
to do except to go on with the trial.
BY practically deciding not to hear the
ahenists on both sides and to avoid any
inquiry as to hereditary insanity taints in

While the proceedings were behind

Thaw answered every question put to him
in an apparently rational manner. He re.

While IT is admitted by the District
Attorneys offices that Thaw's answers
were for the most part good it is

his sanity
The first OF the Thaw retinue to APP

Peabody. After a visit with his chent
he announced: Harry is feeling fine
