GOVERNMENT TO
HELP AVERT BIG
RAILWAY STRIKE
Associated Press.

Washington, July IA confer
ence, which it is hoped will result in
finding means to avoid the strike of
the trainmen aud conductors on many
eastern railroads. was held at the
White House today between Presi-
dent Wilson and representatives of
the railroad employers and employees.
The government was represented by
President Wilson, Secretary of Labor
Wilson, Chairman Newlands of the
senate interstate commerce commit
tee, Chairman Clayton of the house
judiciary committee and Republican
Leader Mann.
The railroads Were represented by
Samuel Rea, president Of the Pennsyl-
vania; Daniel Willard. president OF
the Baltimore & Ohio; W. c. Brown.
president of the New York Central,
and Frank Trumbull, chairman OF
the board of the Chesapeake & Ohio.
The employees were represented by
A, b. Garrettson, president of the Or
der of Railway Conductors. and w.
G. Lee, president OF the brotherhood
of Railway Trainmen.
The conference concerned two
pending bills for the amendment of
the Erdman act providing means of
arbitration in wage disputes. These
are the Newlands bill, which has al
ready passed the senate, and the Clay
ton bill, which has been introduced
In the house. Both provide for an
increase in the number of arbitrators.
The opposition to the Clayton bill
is based on its provision for the pres
ence of the secretary of labor on the
board of mediators.
Al a meeting held yesterday, the
committee of 1,0OO, representing
100000 trainmen and conductors on
45 eastern railroads, voted to strike.
The railroads, having refused to
arbitrate under the Erdman act In it's
present form, apparently the only
way to avoid strike is to change the
law. This was the purpose of today's
White House conference.

New York, July li.-The eastern
railroads today issued statement in
regard to the wage controversy, de-
claring that they are willing to ar
bltratc the questions at issue with
the trainmen and conductors under
the Newlands bill which is now be-
fore congress. but are unwilling to
proceed under the Erdman act.
The statement SAYS that the policy
OF a conference committee of the rail-
roads has never changed; that it has
consistently refused TO be coerced
through threats Of strikes into pay
ing railroad employees wages that are
out of all proportion to the duties
performed.

''The bin which passed the senate. >"
he said, is unqucstionably favorable

as proposed eventually would develop

On one occasion little pack train

fastened a bit of sailcloth, lest mule

At another time $4,000 worth was
sent down on one horse. The packer
in charge did not know who had given
it to him and there was no sign OF

by the fact that within the larger

writes that in all the samples exam

oval or round. and equipped with two
small fiagella or lashlike extensions.
When examined under microscope
the bodies of these minute specks of
living matter are seen to be intensely
augmented with a red cOlOring matter.
When the brine becomes saturated the
oval form changes to a circular shape.
When such a brine begins to crystal

RAINMAKING FALLACIES.
Natures Processes Too Gigantic to Be

Natures Processes Too Gigantic to Be
Initiated by Man.
Warm air is like a sponge It will
suck up a lot of moisture and carry it
without splitting any. But if warm
air. well loaded with moisture. is sud
denly cooled the sponge is squeezed
and the moisture falls out as rain.
Many years ago some hopeful gen
tlemen went to one of our arid regions
and exploded a lot Of dynamite on the
theory that the conclusion would mix
the strata of warm air near the earth
with the cooler strata above and so
cause the necessary precipitation of
moisture. There happened to be light
showers about the time Of the expert
ments. which encouraged the expert
mentors. but didn't convince anybody
else.
The fact is that natures rainmaling
machine is too gigantic to be affected
by the puny efforts Of humans-at least
by any methods SO far discovered.
Nature pumps the moisture laden air
up into the cold regions Of the upper
atmosphere with wheel thousand
miles in diameter. When this ire
mendous wheel of air is revolving nor

ter vapor to an elevation where it can
no longer be carried in solution and
