TAFT ENDED STRIKE
Told Tsthmian Steam-shOYel
Men to "Wait."
REFUSED DEMAND FOR RAISE
Committee Called on War Secretary
while In Panama-Issued Ultima
tum which Brought No Result.
Went Back to Work-Prestdeat
Roosevelt to Pass ON the Case.

How Secretary Taft was threatened at
Panama with strike of all steam-shovel
men If he did not decide tie govern
ments answer as to their demand for in
creased pay and how ne called their
''blun" is a story which has just become
known In Washington. President koose-
welt will settle this question as soon as
an additional report on the subject is
received from Maj. Goethals, chief en-
gtneer OF the canal
One of Secretary Taft's important
duties during his Panama trip was TO
consider the demands for higher wages
made by the steam-shovel men. At pres
ent their pay is higher than in the United
States. The steam-shoveI engineers get
500 a month, six weeks leave with pay
annually, Iree quarters, free medical at
tendance, one months sick leave. and
one months injury leave with pay an
nually, while their food. whether they
eat it at canal commission hotels or buy
it from the eommissary. IS provided at a
little more than cost. They demand $500
a month. The steam-shoveI cranemen and
firemen made demands for proportlonate
increase OF their smaller pay
When Secretary Taft took up the
matter with a delegation OF steam
shovel men at Panama, he found theil
spokesman most impatient and ag-
gressive The Secretary had before him
a stack Of papers, setting forth the
merits and dement's of the question:
and was disposed to handle the matter
carefully and at length; but this was
not 10 the liking OF the leader of the
steam shovel men, who promptly in
formed the Secretary that he would
have TO decide the question at once and
finally. or the steam-shovel men would
strike
Taft Not Uncertain.
Surprised at this attitude. the secre-
tary asked II this meant that he was
not TO have an opportunity thoroughly
to go over the papers in the case. He
asked If tEe steam-shovel men were
determined TO try 10 force an imme-
jiate decision without sufficient op-
portunity To review the facts. The
spokesman Of the steam-shovel men.
committee replied that that was whai
/ he meant. Secretary Taft, therefore
/ told him in no uncertain terms that d
/ he insisted IN taking that attitude the
conference was at an end.
AT this unexpected acceptance OF theu
Iultimatum. the other members Of th'
workmen's committee inteTposed viii
milder words, and the upshot Of the mat
/ ter was that Secretary Taft told then
/ that he would consider the question a
length and would make a recommendation
/ 10 the President. He sailed away iron
Colon without telling them what this rec
Iommendation was.
President Roosevelt viii pass on IN
question probably within the next tw'
/ weeks Most of the Congressional visitor
mo the isthmus have come back with IN
idea that the employees are paid as muci
as they are worth now. and that this D
