NEW YORK, March 1S.-W. s. Carter,
president of the Brotherhood Of Firemen,
made it plain today to the three arbitra-
tors who are to decide the brotherhood g
demands that the firemen want increases
on all the roads concerned, not simply on
those which "can afford to pay" Mr..

of Chairman Chambers.

ceiye more wages only on such roads AZ
are in prosperous circumstances? asked
the chairman
Explains the Demand.
NO; we ask for the increase whether
the road is making money or not" Mr..
Carter replied. "If building is being
erected by big contracting Arm that is
rolling in wealth and another building a
block away by contractor who is strug-
Cling to make ends meet, 1t is our con-
tention that the workmen on both build
ings should receive the same pay for the
same class of work"

Deserted by His Relatives.

In the third of a century OF imprison-
ment his kin have deserted him, and he
does not know the whereabouts Of his
wife and daughter. Prior to his imprison-
ment Eckart saw much of the world,
sailing the seas and working in the dia-
mond fields Of South Africa. The judge
who sentenced him and the district attor-
ney who prosecuted are dead, and only
three of the jurymen are yet living.
Eckart never lost hope. Without money
he managed to bring his case before the
supreme court of Wisconsin and the cir
cult court OF appeals of the United States,
but at every turn he was thwarted. In a
desperate last hope he appealed to a Mil
waukee newspaperman. who was instru-
mental in obtaining his conditional re-
lease.
