ANOTHER STRIKE
PREVENTED BY
ERDMAN ACT


CHICAGO, Feb. 5.-For the
fourth time in less than two
months the Erdman act has been
invoked to prevent a big railway
labor strike Whether the latest
attempt will succeed will depend
upon what action the members of
the Brotherhood of Railway Train
men will take on an arbitration
proposition offered by the railroads
The offer of arbitration was an
nounced tonight by o. l.. Dickson,
spokesman for the general man
ayers committee, following the ad-
journment of a series of confer
ences between the representatives
of 13 railroads and the officials of
the brotherhood, representing the
yardmen employed in the Chicago
switching district.
WORKING RULES ADJUSTED
During the conference, q work
ing rules were adjusted by mutual
concession, two that had been de-
manded by the men being with
drawn and II being left unsettled.
The railroads, however, refused
to grant any increase in wages.
Arbitration was not suggested until
the final conference, when it was
apparent that no agreement could
be reached.
The trainmen's representatives
said they would have to put the
arbitration question to a vote of
the men and that they would re-
port at a conference to be held
later.

IRISH STILL
BELIEVE HOME
RULEPOSS|bLE
(By United Press Leased Wire)

(By United Press Leased Wire)
LONDON, Feb. 5.-There are a
few Irish nationalists in England
today sanguine enough to believe
that home rule is a possibility in
the forthcoming session of parlia-
ment
The result hinges on how many of
the liberals desert the administra-
tons legislative program when the
home rule bill is reached. At pres
ent it is believed that at least 25
per cent of the liberals are opposed
to home rule and unless an unex-
pected conversion takes place will
vote against the measure. The
ationaliSt-labOrite coalition
numbers 1896, or a majority of 1872
over the conservatives. The loss
of 6S members would cut this
strength to 1923, or less than ma
jority, or make it imperative to get
before the public in another cleo
ton with home rule as the dom
inant issue.
In the meantime, the nationalists
will work every possible wire to
cut down the number of dissenting
liberals, in the hope that possibly
the long cherished home rule
measure may become a reality at
the next session. 1t is admitted
that there is a scant possibility of
this, as there is dissensiOn even
among the nationalists, and a
chance that the O'Brien wing of
the party. numbering 10 or IL, will
not support the Redmond faction.

den in trying to shield this act as
well as combat the willy Dennis.
The Sprague avenue fill now
promises to become a large sized
scandf- before it is finally com
pleted. and the probability is that
the whole thing will be laid bare
and those responsible for getting
the city in the hole made to suffer.
Thus far the city administration
seems inclined to cover up the act
ual facts and try to force Dennis
on matters as they stand at the
present.
For this purpose an estimate for
$4,000 was allowed Dennis last
week but held up by Councilman
Funk, who refused to sign the
warrant as president of the city
council. Funk believes that had
Dennis secured the money he
would have told the city to take it's
fill and be happy, on the ground
that the legal obligations of Dennis
had terminated by an alleged VIC
lation of the contract by the city.
The action of Dennis in going to
court indicates that some such
proposition was brewing.
Assistant Corporation Counsel
Blair says: I'VE have a good and
sufficient bond from the Warehouse
and Realty Co. and Mr.. Dennis as
surfing the city that he will com
plete the fill. We think this bond
amply protects the city and that
the fill will be built without addi-
tional cost One side of the fill
will be open in few days, as soon
as a little work can be completed
by the board of public works,
which served notice on Mr.. Dennis
today to open the fill Immediately

GEN. MENA BRINGS
CRUSH|NGDEF4AT
TO vASQU|z.
BY w. A. DEVERAlG

starr Correspondent United EPress,
BLUEFTELDS, Nicaragua, by
Wireless and Cable, Feb. BY
special courier and wire, &eneral
Mena announced tonight to the fol.
lowers of Provisional President Els
trada that he has administered a
crushing defeat to the forces OF
General Vasquez, in, command OF
the administration army.
Two battles, according to General
Mena, were fought. The first was
at La Garita. near the heights OF
Santo Tomas. where the Madri7
forces were routed from strong en-
trenchments with the loss OF SOC
men in killed, wounded and cap
tured.
The second battle was fought al
Santa Clara, where General Vas
quez and General Garrido made an
other stand against the victorious
rebels. They were utterly routed
the Estrada forces capturing Maxim
guns and large number of prison
ers. The rear guard action ended
hostilities for time, the govern
ment forces retreating to Santo
Domingo.
General Chamorro. commander in
chief of the Estrada forces, has en-.
tirely recovered from his wound
and is now in Grenada, prepared tC
resume active command of the
army.
General Mena has sufficient men
to isolate the forces of General Vas
Quez and another battle, which will
probably end in the surrender OF
Vasquez and his men, is momentar.
lily expected.
Generals Vasuuez and Rivas, com
manding the Madriz forces, are
hemmed in at SantO Domingo, com
pletely surrounded and facing in
evitable capture.
By hurried flank march, Gen
eral Chamorro has reached Como
apa, As miles from Santo Domingo
while General Mena occupies a
strong position at Santo Tomas
with the Madriz forces beseiged.
The Madriz forces have no power
of communication, all wires now be-
ing in control of the revolutionists
and all roads being held by the rev.
dictionary party
