ROADS and men
STILL AT OUTS
CONFERENCE Between BOARD
OF MANAGERS AND FlREMEN
IS STILL ON.
Firemen Are Anxious for a Prompt
Settlement Plan for Strike Has
Not Been Abandoned - Impossible
to Tell When the Negotiations will
be Completed.

Chicago, March 1S.-After two
days of almost continuous argument,
the mediation between the repre-
sentatives Of 27,000 firemen and the
general managers of forty-seVen
western railroads, was still uncon-
cluded up to a late hour tonight. 1t
was stated the hearing would probab-
ly be continued tomorrow and 1t
would be impossible to tell when the
federation mediators would COM
plete their work.
That the firemen are anxious for
prompt decision was made known by
President Carter of the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Firemen and Engine
men, who said the unions plan to
call a strike Monday had not yet
been abandoned.
1t is learned that the railroads are
still determined to stand pat on their
refusal to submit to arbitration on
certain rules governing discipline and
authority. Both Martin A. Knapp,
chairman O fthe Interstate Commerce
Commission, and Chas. P. Neill, tho
United States labor commissioner,
were confident the mediation would
result in a clear understanding as to
what shall be arbitrated. The gov
ernment officials, however, declined
to comment on the situation.

LONG WINDED TRADE AGAINST
ADMINISTRATION RAILROAD
BILL CLOSED.
Calls Attention to Fact That Elec-

Consolidation Refers to Panama

Washington, March 1S:-After hold
ing the floor for four days, Senator
Cummins today completed his speech
in opposition to the administration
railroad bill and the senate adjourn
ed until Monday next.
The Iowa senator's discussion to-
day dealt particularly with the pro-
vision regulating the consolidation of
railroads, and with this provision he
found much fault. Pointing out that
the regulation extends to railroads
alone, he declared that in the ommis-
sion of water lines, there was pos
sibility of great abuse. He referred
to the prospective completion of the
Panama canal, and said it would be
impossible to prevent the trans-con-
tinental railroads from acquiring the
water lines, thus cutting out all COM
petition.
He also called attention to the fact
that electric lines were specifically
excluded from the provision and de-
clared it would be possible for an
electric line to gain control Of all
the railroads in the country.
