Baltimore Especially There will
be no strike on the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad. An agreement on
the wages ana service conditions con-
troversy, which has been the sub
ject of mediation by DR.. Charles p
Neill and Judge Martin A. Knapp,
was reached shortly before midnight
Both sides signed the new agree
ment, which had been prepared by
DR.. Neill, and strike was averted.
1t was not announced just what con-
cessions were granted, but the presi-
dents of the two organizations in
volved. Messrs. A. B. Garretson, of
the conductors union. and w. G..
Lee, of the trainmen's organization,
said that, while the agreement did
not grant all that they asked in
their original proposition, yet it gave
important increases to the men.
The official announcement of the
result given out by Messrs. Garrett
son and Lee, of the trainmen's S
unions, was as follows:
"An agreement between the officers
of the Baltimore and Ohio and the
conductors and trainmen of that line
was reached through the efforts Of
Charles p. Neill, commissioner of
labor. and Martin A. Knapp, chair
man of the Interstate Commerce
Commission. after eight days of al
most continuous conferences. The
settlement includes freight, passen-
ger and yard services, and while MT
all that was requested by the men
in the original demands presented,
1t means a substantial increase TO all
concerned.
Thousands of men on the Balti-
more and Ohio can be thankful that
through the spirit of fairness shown
on the part of the company and the
committee, aided by the patient eff
forts and good judgment of Com
missioner Neill and Chairman
Knapp, has been avoided serious
strike. not only on this railroad, but

Washington, d. c. Especially -
Preparedness on the Pacific Is the
watchword Of the War Department
and its most striking expression is
the creation of a new Gibraltar IN
the Philippines.
Experts speculating as 10 the pos
sibility of war, even in the remote
future have agreed that the first
understanding of an enemy in the
Pacific would be 10 seize the Philip
pines and Hawaii This seems also
TO have been the Judgment of Of
ficials of the War Department, and
they have met the situation. so far
as the Philippines are concerned. by
constructing at the entrance to Ma
Mia Bay a stronghold believed to
be able to withstand any force.
Corregidor Island has been put in
a state Of perfect defense and pro-
visioned for possible siege of three
years. Fou? 10-inch guns protect
the sea approaches, and batteries of
rapid-fire guns now cover every land

Artesian wells have been sunk at

ply, and huge tanks have been com
pleted at high points. insuring grav-
ity pressure for fighting fire. At
protected points warehouses have
been erected for the three years

there.
The plan evolved by the military
authorities in the event If war is TO
abandon every military post in the
archipelago. destroying all property
which would be of service to an
enemy and to transfer all the troops
and resident Americans together
with the government treasure, to the
island and await there the coming
OF relief force.
Corregidor Island Is approximately
FOUR miles in length and a mile and
a half wide at the broadest point.
1t is of volcanic formation and
natural fortress.
1t was learned that the unusual
secrecy observed in the recent test of
the new l4-jnch naval gun at Sandy
Hook was not imposed through the
desire to guard from publicity the
effectiveness of the big gun. but was
due to the fact that the target used
was built of the secretly prepared
concrete which Is being used in the
defense of Corregidor and the neigh
boring Island of FL Fraille.
The Japanese ordnance officers
have designed a 14-inch gun which
is almost an exact replica of the
gun tested at Sandy Hook, and it
was desirable to ascertain the effect
Of the fire from this powerful gun
on the material being used in the
battery emplacements OF the de-
lenses OF our island possessions. 1t
Is reported that the new material
withstood the fire directed against
It most satisfactorily.

.ENGL|SHMENMOBM Mr.. PATTEN
Make Il Hot For Him In English
Cotton Exchange.
Hostile Reception Led BY Men Who
Had Lost Large Amounts As A
Result OF American Spectators
Operations In Chicago---On Arriv-
ing In Liverpool He Is Given
Friendly Greeting On The Corn
Exchapge-Irritated Over Treat
ment In Manchester.

London Especially A hostile de-
monstration on the floor Of the Cot
ton Exchange at Manchester and one
directly contrasting It for friendli-
ness on the Corn Exchange. at Liv-
erpool, we're met with by James A.
Patten, the Chicago wheat and cot
ton operator.
In the first, Mr.. Patten was mob
bed and probably escaped injury
only by being rescued by the police;
in the latter he was greeted with
cheering and other manifestations of
friendliness.
The brief vacation in England of
the Chicago operator had been spent
mostly about the Liverpool markets,
and he made up his mind to run
over to Manchester to see the city
and visit the cotton exchange.
AS soon as Patten appeared on
the floor of the Cotton Exchange a
broker shouted "Patten!" Instantly
hostile c"ies were raised and the air
was filled with "booings" and hoot-
ings mingled with an occasional
cheer.
Amid the din the brokers rushed
toward the American, who was
quickly surrounded by a threaten
ing mob and jostled hither and
thither, as the pressure of excited
throngs behind carried those in the
circle up and down the floor of the
pit in an exhausting scrimmage.
After a while. the brokers exert
ing their energies in a common di-
rection made a final rush and drove
the wheat king out of the door and
into the street. The business of the
exchange was suspended and hum
dreds Of men left the pit and fol-
lowed the speculator into Bank
Street, where another crowd was
soon assembled.
At this point the visitor received
a reception even more riotous than
that which greeted him within the
exchange. The mob hurled epithets,
and a hundred fists were shaken at
Patten, who turned deathly pale as
the threatening crowd pressed close
ly and seemed on the point of per-
sonally assaulting him.
At a critical moment a strong
force OF police arrived and, forcing
their way through the rioters and
officers. surrounded Patten. and
moment later they had hustled him
into an office and out the back door
into cab, in which he was hur-
riedly driven to railroad station.
He took the first train for Liver
pool
