BOTH SIDES FIRM.
But Each Predicts That There Will Be
No Strike.

Chicago, March 26-GeneraI mana
gers of the western railroads and repre- :
sentatives of the Brotherhood Of Rail-
way Trainn1en and the Order of Rail
way Conductors began today what
promises to be the final conference re-
garding the demands for an increase
OF pay and a working day of nine
hours.
For several weeks the men belonging
to the two organizations have been vot-
ing on the question of striking if their
demands are not granted and although
the vote was not announced today
prior TO the commencement of the con
ference, it is understood to be over
whelmfngly In favor of strike IL such
a step should become necessary
The general managers have informed
the men that they are prepared 10 Of
fer 10 per cent increase. but cannot
grant nine hour day Before the con-
ference commenced today both sides
expressed a rosy Fleeg5 Of what would
appear to an outsider as a blue situa-
ton. The men insisted that there
would be no strike because the general
managers concede their demands. The
general managers said there would be
no strike because the men would ahate
their demands and accept the offer of
the report.
Both sides expressed determination
not to give way in any particular. It
is expected that the conferences Will
last for several days and a definite out
come is not looked for until the end
of the week.

COST HIM HIS LIFE.
Prosecution of Gillette Broke Down
the District Attorney.

New Orleans. March 26.-Thomas F.
Ward, who committed suicide near the
City park race track last week. was
the district attorney of st. townsville,
N Y. He was worth $150,oo0. Mr..
Ward was crazed by overwork, brought
on by the trial of Chester Gillette, Who
was sentenced to death for the murder
of Miss Grace Brown of Herkimer,
N Y.
Mr.. Ward went from ST. townsville
to New York some weeks ago TO re-
ceive treatment for stomach troubfe
While there 1t is supposed he was told
he was irourabIe. This, it is thought
in connection with the mental strain
incident to Gillette trial caused Mr.
Ward to become despondent. The
above statements were made today by
