 New York, Jan. 20.-The g rail- roads centering in New York today refused the demands made by their 100000 trainmen and conductors for in creases in wages and shorter hours. They asked for a conference between the managers of the railroads and the union men, giving to the railroad men the right to name the date of the conference. As yet no date has been announced. A compromise without the necessity of a strike, it is believed, will be the outcome of the future con- ference.
 The trainmen and conductors, it is said asked for increases in wages varying from 10 to 100 per cent and for a. standard 10 hour day for all union employees with overtime.
 A committee representing the em- ployes of each railroad, it is declared, called on the general managers of each of the 32 railroads today and demand ed an answer to the request made on Jan. 3rd for shorter hours and 1n- creased pay. The general managers answered, as in the case of the New York Central, that the dema ands of the workers were too great and request ed conference with the railroad men at which time the entire question of wages and hours will be discussed. It as said the railroad answers offered

The HA0UE, June 77.-EX-SenatOT
George Turner. representing the United
States before the Hague tribunal. con.
tinued his argument on the fisheries
question to-day. He oontended that
Great BritAin's sovereignty was limited
10 far as the fisheries were concerned
He dealt Of length with the doctrine Of
international ssrvitude- and argued
that the American fishing rights were
in the nature Of a servinlde which could
not be hindered by English laws and
were in nOWise limited by the treaty Of
1918.
The word liberty in the treaty. he
insisted. implied a franchise in the fullest
extent and 90 was equivalent TO q royal
privilege This was exclusive Of the
proprietary right The Americans in
negotiating the treaty had agreed upon
the word liberty instead Of the word
right IN Difference 70 the Wishes Of

was not altered thereby.
Il was the fact that the treaty gave
the Americans the same rights a. the

should Use those rights the equality
