DOES NOT INDICATE STRIKE
Fact That Vote Is to Be Taken by
Locomotive Engineers.

st. Paul, Nov. 9-The fact that a
strike vote is to be taken among the
locomotive engineers on the Western
roads, in view of the refusal of the
officials to accede to the demands of
the men, is not taken to indicate that
a strike will occur, in the opinion of
st. Paul railroad men. Negotiations
between the managers committee and
the grand chiefs of the Brotherhood of
Locomotive Engineers were broken off
In Chicago after a conference lasting
since Sept. 26. 1t was announced by
Grand Chief Warren Stone of the
brotherhood that the result of the vote
would be known by Dec. 1, when an
ultimatum would be delivered the rail
roads.
'That strike vote is to be taken
does by no means indicate that there
will be a strike" remarked one OF the
local officials of the brotherhood. I'VE
have received no word from the grand
chief in Chicago and the only informa-
tion we have that negotiations have
been broken was what We saw In the
newspapers So far we have not be-
gun taking a strike vote in this terri
tory"

GENERAL UPRISING
IS THREATENED
Revolt in Honduras Against
President Davi|a.

New Orleans, Nov "a general up.
rising in Honduras, with all the ood
enemies of President Davila partici.
pating in the movement for his over.
throw, is imminent, according to ad.
vices brought here by passengers on
the steamer Orleanian from Ceiba and
Puerto Cortez. They say the revolu-
tionary spirit is spreading and while
the people generally do not sympa-
thize with the actions of General Val
ladares, the revolutionary governor
of Amapala, they are willing again
to rally to Manuel Bonila, who, many
believe, is making preparations to re
vive his revolution against Davila.
AS an indication of the preparations
that are going forward for a concerted
movement against Davila, General Me
dina, former commandant at Ceiba
has gone to Amapala to consult Valla
dares and has been joined there by
Generals Lara and Mututy, who were
prominent in the recent Nicaraguan
revolution.
Medina, who Is a noted fighter and
one of the most powerful political lead
ers in Honduras, only recently turned
against President Davila. He was
credited with crushing the Bonila
revolution last July.

IMMIGRATION LAW
BREAKER OF HEARTS
Hardships Caused by Enforcing
Letter Of Statute.

New York, Nov 9.-.Ellis island will
remember the case of Franz Lohn and
his wife, German Hungarians, as a
peculiar example of how the innocent
letter of the law as. applied to immi-
grants may work heartrending hard
ships. The aged couple have two
daughters living in Passaic, N. j., and
it was their intention to join them
when they journeyed to Hamburg,
Germany, and bought a ticket to Amer
ica
ticket put them on a steamer which
landed them in Buenos Ayres. With
no funds they spent year at hard
manual labor on ranch earning
enough for passage to New York. A
week ago they arrived here again pen
niless. The immigration officials said
Immediately they could not land, be-
cause they were likely to become pub
lie charges.
The pleadings of the two daughters
availed nothing and the only question
which remained was, should they go
back to Argentina or to Hamburg?
The law says specifically that the line
which brings over an undesirable alien
shall take him back. The daughters
offered to pay the passage to Ger
many. but the law was infiexible and
the two are now aboard steamer sail
ing back to Argentina, their nemesis.

FAIL TO REACH AGREEMENT

Representatives OF the Brotherho
and High Officials of Companies
Have Been Holding Daily Confer
ences Since Sept. 26 Without Re-.
suIt-No Further Developments in
the Matter Expected for About a
Month.
Chicago, Nov. "a strike vote will
be taken among engineers of sixty-ona
railroads west, south and north of Chi
cago, including the Illinois Central,
following the termination Of the nego.
tiations between the roads and grand
officers of the Brotherhood of Loco.
motive Engineers, which had been in
session since Sept. 26. Differences on
wage increases of approximately per
cent and alterations of working condi.
tions stood between the negotiators.
Grand Chief Warren S. Stone of the
brotherhood, who has been leading the
railroad men in their demands, said
he believed the strike vote would be
unanimously in favor Of suspension OF
work and that the enginemen would
have expressed their desire by Dec.
10.
Immediately thereafter, he said, a
last opportunity would be given the
railroads to meet the workers and, il
they ignored that opportunity, within
five hours every engine west of Chi
cago, on all branches of service, would
be stilled and the fires drawn and out
of the thousands of cabs would step
every driver on duty.
Grievances as Submitted.
The general working conditions of
which the engine drivers complain in
clude, among other things, the follow
ing:
Drivers of the Mallett compound en-
gines, which do practically the work
of two engines and entail a CORE
spondingly greater responsibility and
capability, receive the same wages as
other drivers of high power engines of
much lesser capacity.
Engineers wish to be relieved of the
toll of preparing their engines for
travel and of caring for them after the
runs
Switching time should be paid for
on a different basis.
The magnitude of the wage question
is evidenced by statement by the
employees that the per cent wage
difference now standing between the
drivers and the railroads means ap-
proximately $2,S0o,000 a year The
cost of alterations of the working con-
ditions, minor considerations in the
conference, would be less than $780,
900, 1t was asserted.
