There will be no strike. We will
accept the offer and there will eventu-
ally be an amicable agreement"
The committee promised a definite
answer to Messrs. Neill and Knapp
this afternoon. Both OF the govern
ment officials said they expected this
answer TO be favorable.
NEW YORK, April 23-When the
committee of the railroad managers
association went into session at head
quarters today on its action depended
peace or war In the railroad world.
The committee of the engineers had
accepted the offer OF mediation made
on behalf of the federal government
by Commissioner of Labor Neill and
Judge Knapp, of the court of COM
merce. without a seconds delay But
the railroad managers were in no
hurry. Even when they went into
session today they were inclined to be
defiant although 1t was recognized
that they could hardly afford to ig-
more the offer.
The railroads, ii is generally be.
lieved. preferred a strike. because
they believed only in that way would
they be able to persuade the inter
gt mic ~ Inr
them increase freight rates. This
was indicated when Jefferson Levey,
who represents a rich New York dis
trict in congress, tried to persuade
Grand Chief Stone to join with the
railroads in an appeal TO congress to
enact legislation which would nullify
the action of the commission in COM
pelling the railroads to refrain from
increasing rates. Stone was told by
the congressman that il he would take
this action there was no question that
the railroads would be able to grant
every demand of the men.
When the general managers went
into session today several of them
privately said they did not see how
arbitration could help because the
roads simply could not pay any high.

mean that interest on outstanding
bonds would have 10 be defaulted.
ANY proposition that means the
expenditure OF more money on onr
rayrolls is foolish and cannot be &C.
cepted by us declared one OF the
managers.
Despite this fact however. there
was a general belief when the meet.
ing began that the managers would
accept the offer OF the government
simply because they could not afford

railroads would stand in the way OF
anything that would make for peace.

the Child had been given powerful
drugs, In place of mild cold cure
prescribed especially for infants,
through the mistake Of a drug clerk.
Harry Hauk, clerk in j. W. Nc
Laren's drug store, No. 107S Oakland

anodyne for the child.
Hauk gave an 11-year-old son of
Mrs. Catino several large tablets OF
chlorodyne. with directions to give
the babe one every hour.
Chlorodyne is a heart stimulant for
adults, and the tablets, according TO
Coroner Rothacher, contain such In
gradients as nitro-glycerin and NOR

In a critical condition and learned OF
the mistake that had been made, he
administered an antidote, but the babe

A postmortem examination of the
body revealed a slight congestion OF

might have been a factor in causing
the babes death, but he sent the
stomach to County Chemist Clark for
analysis, and If the analysis shows
that death resulted fro mthe drugs.

with Prosecutor Shepherd.
Hauk was not detained by the cor
oner, who is waiting for the result
