Clocks of Great Value.

The redecoration of the famous clock
by Vuiilamy in the vestibule of the prime
minister's house in Downing street Is g.
reminder that many government depart
ments are the possessors of grandfather
clocks" of considerable value. In the
foreign office, for instance. is a magnif-
icent specimen OF the clockmaker's art by
Graham. while at the home office may be
seen one by John Dwerrihouse of Berke-
ley Square.
Perhaps the most interesting Of all is
one a, the admiralty, which has a double
dial, with two sets OF numbers from to
XII. 1t was removed some years ago
from the old buildings in Whitehall and
placed in the room Of the first lord. It is
believed to have been gift from Queen
Anne, who, like her husband, Prince
George of Denmark. held the office Of lord
high admiral. 1t only requires winding
up once in the course Of a year and is the
work Of the Incompatible Tompion. It In
stated that in 100 he actually started on
the construction of a clock for st. Pauls
Cathedral which was to go for a hum
dred years without winding.

eral years.

Luke said: LAS late as this morning an
attempt was made to get money out of
this case Threat was made that If a
certain amount was not paid by Mr..
Luke befoee 1880 o'clock papers would
be filed against him No attention was
paid to this threat.
ut is true that Mr.. Luke knew the
woman whose name is attached to the

made any evertures that could be con-
strued even as proposal of marriage.

Possibility of Strike on 4S
Eastern Railroads Too Remote
for Consideration Now.

The possibility Of a strike resulting
from the demands OF the Brotherhood
OF Locomotive Engineers on forty-elsht
Eastern railroads Is so remote as to be
beyond serious consideration at this
.lme. according to A.. W. Sullivan.
secretary OF the executive conference
committee named by the. Eastern roads
to act In adjusting the demands OF the
engineers.
I'VE are not lined up for battle" said
Mr.. Sullivan to an Evening World re-
porter to-day. and we are not prepar.
ing for a long siege. Statements to that
effect are unwarranted a, this time.
THE roads affected by the engineers
demands cover the territory East NJ
Chicago and north OF the Norfolk and
Western In Virginia. Included In the
list are the New York Central. Pennsyl-
vania. New Haven. Lackawanna. Erie,
Della and Hudson. Baltimore and
Ohio. Jersey Central. Lehigh Valley,
Lake Shore. Western Maryland and
Wheeling and Lake Erie.
THE demands made by the engineers
were formulated in Bufaio in January
and are:
PAY for running passenger engines
having cylinders Of twenty inches ar
under. $40 per 100 miles or less. S@.6o
for engines having larger cylinders.
overtime to be computed on a basis OF
twenty miles per hour at 20 cents an
hour. Electric engines to bc operated
by members OF the brotherhood at
stcam service rates.
"On freight engines S.25 per 100 miles
on engines with 20-,neh cylinders, $3.50
for engines with cylinders from 20 to q
inches. 1915 for engines with cylinders
exceedIng "a inches except the Mallet
type locomotive, which Is rated at s..
Overtime to be computed on the min
ute basis at tae rate Of 10 miles an
hour.
Rates .for operating switch engines In

at IS for a day Of 10 hours.
Engineers who are required to report

Of wages under the demands At 80, 00.O0
