The Senator May Have to Shorten His
Campaign.

Boston, Sept. 19.-Following slight
collapse at the conclusion of political
speech at Norwood Saturday. it is re-
ported that Senator Lodge may have to
curtail his campaigning this fall. Lodge
has been in somewhat poor health for
over year and at the conclusion Of
an outdoor speech last Saturday, he
had a brief fainting spell after retir-
ing from the platform. He had fully
recovered last night, but the effect Of
his strenuous work on the stump thus
far in the state campaign has sapped
his strength and it is believed that he
may have to give up some of his
speaking engagements.

jectured here today. Since the
Sherman episode and his statement of
his every action in that matter. the
president has been disposed TO keep
firmly out of the New York situation.
He had been very reluctantly drawn
into it In the first place, and after
making his position clear during the
entanglements which followed the turn
down of Roosevelt for temporary chair
man of the state convention. he felt he
could leave the handling OF the state s

GRAND TRUNK SETTLEMENT.

The strike of conductors, trainmen and
yardmen which began on the Grand
Trunk and Central Vermont systems

night
Under the terms of the agreement
signed by President Hays for the rail
roads, and all the union officials. the
men will receive. dating back to May Is,
this year. an advance of approximately
Is per cent. and beginning Jan. 1, 1912,
a rate of wages slightly below the East
ern association schedule, for which they
struck. but an advance in many instances
of over 80 per cent
Much credit for the successful out
come of the peace negotiations is given
to W. L. Mackenzie King. minister OF
labor. who has persisted in his efforts to
bring the men together, despite discour.
aging setbacks.
In the case OF the Central Vermont the
same settlement applies. with the excep-
ton that the standardization to be ap
piled Jan. /. 1912. is to be that of the
Rutland railway, road in the same ter
ritory, and not that of the Canadian Pa
cific. which will only apply to the Grand
Trunk system.
President Garretson of the conductors
and President Lee of the trainmen, both
terms of the settlement. Both left Tues
day night for St Louis.
The railroads will make a demand on
the interstate commerce commission to
raise railroad rates at once.

believed that their affiliation with the
