FLOOD REFUGEES LIVE
IN BOX CARS

CINCINNATI, March 25.-With
their homes in the grasp of the
muddy flood of the Ohio river, nu-
merous families in the East end of
this city are living in Pennsylvania
box cars. The railway line at this
point is on an embankment above
high water mark, and the refugees
having no other shelter took pos
session of the box cars. They have
been allowed to stay by the rail-
way company.
Blankets and quilts spread on the
car floors are the only beds, and
the cooking is done on oil stoves.

TONOPAH, New, March 25.-
CHUCK, I'll play you three games of
checkers. think | can beat you"
Turning from a faro table at
which he had just lost 100000 in
two hours sitting, Abe Brown,
Nevada's king-pin gambler, made
the above remark to one of his
friends in the Tonopah club. He
was as calm as if he was arising
from a dinner table.
What Is more. Brown actually
played the three games of checkers,
and although there wasn't cent
bet he appeared to take as much
interest as he did in the faro
games.
Browns losses smash all Nevada
records for a single sitting. He
entered the Tonopah club shortly
before 7 o'clock in the evening and
by o'clock did not have a cent in

MAY TIE UP
 BRITISH RAILROADS

London, Oct. 26-Great Britain is now facing the possibility of the great est labor strike in the history of the United Kingdom, which may result in
 tying up all the railroads of the country. The voting on the question of a strike by the members of the Amalgamated Society of Railway Ser wants, of which Richard Bell, M. F., is general secretary, was concluded today and the result will shortly be made public. It is reported that the sentiment among the men is largely in favor of a general suspension of work, in order to- secure the recogni- tion of their organization and new scale of wages and hours.
 It is not likely that strike will be declared immediately upon the an- nouncement of the result of the vote, as the officials of the Amalgamated Society are in favor of making last effort to settle the dispute peaceably. It is likely that this attempt will be fruitless, as the railway companies have already made an unfavorable and final reply to the societys demand for recognition and higher wages and shorter hours.
 The reply of the railway companies, which was issued by the council of the Railway association, says the council has no power to appoint representa- tives to meet the delegates of the unions and discuss questions which affect the relations between individual companies and their employees.
 The council, however, added that it's

members individually We're unani- mously of the opinion that no advan- tage could resu,, from any meeting until after today and when he result of the lalIotiaa aa ;Ae question of q general strike has become known
 While the chief claim o; the union
 is for it's recognition. t also de- mands an eisht-hou day fer men en- gagged in the movement of trains and a ten-hour day for others, and q minimum of the rate and q quarter for all time over the standard hours.
 The companies have refused to grant the uinon's demands on the
 grounds that it represents only q quarter of the men employed, and also that it would be destructive of respon- sible railway control to allow the un- ions to intervene.
 An analysis of the Amalgamated society's s funds states there is only an amount equal to about S11 per mem- Der available for strike purposes. In the event that the strike is declared, however, it is thought that all the organized workingmen of Great Brit ain will come to the financial assist ance of the railroad men,
