ace H. Lurton Of the United States Su-

not be appointed Chief Justice Of the United

it would be against all precedent for the
President to appoint man Chief Justice

in, srisllt given on the f,ercentage basis,
videned the difference in rates which eX-
jsted all over the line between men IN

runs on the same portions of the territory.
but they served the purpose for which they
were devised namely. 10 distract the at
tention OF the employees from the fact that
the conditions under which thev served the
rounnaglV pAre less re1l7tfnerative even with
q comparatively higher rate OF pay than
those which obtained on surrounding lines.
Il has been repeatedly stated 10 the COM
pany 1nGI il the company would put in the
code of rules governing conditions Of the

the present rates Of pav would effect a set
tlernent Of the differences upon the tines.
While both sides are disinclined TO
yield as indicated in the ofTicial state
nents. there is still hope among con-
servative railroad men that a settle
rl1ent viii be reached. Great hope is
placed in the Erdman arbitration act
which has brought many other railroad
wage troubles 10 an end. and il is be-
lieved that great pressure will be
brought on one side or both to take ad-
vantage Of this LAW
Messrs 9arretson and Lee absolutely
refused 20 give OUT any information Of
the situation on the pennsylvania lines

that the lack OF developments to-day on
