REDUCE THE DEMAND
WESTERN TRAINMEN ONLY ASK
 FOR NEW WORK DAY.
Arbitration Committee Working Hard With Railroad 0mcis1s And Their Employes To Bring About
 An Adjustment.

Chicago, April 1.-The railway em- ployes in the train service of the Western railroads have reduced their demands to nine hour work day and the government officials who came to Chicago last week to bring about an adjustment of the threatened strike are working hard to overcome that obsta- cle.
 Messrs. Knapp and Neiil held an al- most continuous session today with the general managers and the repre- sentatives of the trainmen and con- ductors. The opposing interests met in adjoining rooms and the peace emis- saries went back and forth between them urging or side or the other 70 concede a point in the interests of peace. The men today signified their willingness to accept the wage increase offered by the railroads if the mana gers would grant the demand for the nine hour work day.
 The labor delegates declare that the wage increase asked for was a minor consideration with them that they could not face their constituents with out securing Improvements in the working conditions.
 It was learned tonight that the nine hour demand of the locomotive fire- men was what has prevented a set clement of that end of the labor diff faculties. the western roads are ex- periencing. While acting separately entirely from the conductors and train men the firemen are standing out for the same demands and 1t is said in the event of strike being ordered they, too, would walk out.

 Chicago, April 1.-The Republican leaders in the municipal campaign now drawing to a close expressed them elves as delighted with letter printed in The Tribune of today. In which the statement is mado by au- thority, that President Roosevelt IS in favor of the election of Frederick A. Busse, the Republican candidate for Mayor
 The Democratic leaders assert that the letter, coming as 1t does from paper which Is strongly in favor or Busse, is discredited in advance, and that even though 1t came from the President himself. 1t is too late to stop the progress of the vote, which has set in strongly for Dunne. Chair man O'Connell, the Democratic cam election of Dunne Is absolutely certain and nothing can now prevent it.
 The campaign today took on a more lively aspect than at any time previous. All day band wagons were rolling through the city advertising political gatherings which were scheduled from all sections of the city and for all hours No new epithets were applied for the reason that the supply had been about exhausted. but the old ones were, as usual, hurled back and forth.
 Chicago has never known 0 political campaign in which invective and vi- tur- -ation has played so prominent a part
 The claims by the campaign man. agers are unchanged, each predicting the election of his candidate by at least 3o.000.

WILL SETTLE FIGHT TODAY Chicago on Eve of Bat-
 tie of Ballots. DUNNE AND BUSSE READY Street Car Question is Live Issue
 With Voters. Feeling Between Candidates and Friends Has Been Ritter, and Per-
 sonaI Abuse Has Marked the
oUNNE AND BUsSE READY

Chicago, April 1--Chicago's street car question. which has been before the public the past ten years. will be set tied at the polls tomorrow at the may orally election If the voters adopt by referendum vote the ordinances recent ly passed by the City Council over Mayor Dunne's veto. granting twenty years franchises to the two street car companies.
 If these ordinances fail of public adoption, and Mayor Dunne. the Dem ocratic candidate, is reelected. efforts will be made at once according to May or Dunne. to procure immediate muni- cipal ownership of the street railways.
 The ordinances before the people pro- vide that the city on six months notice may acquire the street railway systems for $60,000,00 plus the cost of reha- bilftation, which is to be undertaken tm- mediately under the supervision of the city engineer. The ordinances also provide for through routes, universal to the city of 50 per cent of the net In come. The books of the company are to be open to the city officials.
 Several non-partisan organizations have worked with the Republicans who are supporting Postmaster Fred A. Busse for Mayor, to procure the adop- tion of the ordinance; and the predic- tion was made tonight by the heads of these indepedent bodies that the ordi- nances will be adopted tomorrow.
 Mayor Dunne believes that the peo- pie want immediate municipal owner ship and that they will re-elect him and reject the ordinances.
 The campaign which closed tonight with both parties holding scores of meetings all over the city has been the most spirited fight for mayor that has ever taken place in this city. The feeling between the candidates and their lieutenants became so bitter dur ing the campaign that personal abuse has been the issue for over two weeks. The weather indicate ons for tomor- row and clear and warm and as heavy a ballot as an April election would bring out is looked for.

 However. a few of the ministers sid ed with Dr. Clark. The subject was so enthralling that nearly everybody present desired to voice his protest or his defense of pr. Clarks words.
 pr. Clark was led to make his state ment about dogmas being "curios" In his reference to Prof. H. G. Mitchell. of Boston University, who has been on trial before the board of bishops on charges of teaching heresy. pr. Clark said: l.
 T protest against the manner In which the ecclesiastic authorities have been trying his case -
 '"The board of bishops receive him practically condemned already and with his case unjustly weakened. Here is a great scholar, of whom the Meth odists may well be proud, virtually exiled."
 A murmur of disapproval swept over the audience at the word 'curfos." and as soon as pr. Clark sat down half A dozen preachers tried to get the floor to voice their disapprovaL
 Dr. Clark said:
 ..Now, I am opposed to making any more theological definitions. God save us from them; the kingdom of God Is within you. You cannot write 1t in books. It Is Love and Service and Faith. Our dogmas may we'll be kept as curios and placed on the top shelf. We may keep them as We do our Rule of Conduct for Preachers which we have not destroyed. but which we sim ply preserve as a curio. although we know 1t cannot be observed and en- forced in this day and represents the idea of the past"

 Dr. M Pearson said:

 The Rev. Albert Thomas followed with this dramatic statement.
 'The action of the bishops was vic- ious and discredit to the church. Dr. Mitchell is an inspiration. If he Is @ heretic, would like to be one like him"
