Of the quarrel is traced to the Bucking-

was invited, but the duke was not. He
forbade her to go, but she defied him
and used the Westminister's state carri-

On her return to Grosvenor House the
duchess found the gates locked and she
was refused aGmittance. She passed

RAILROAD REPORTS
FALSIFIED, SAYS CARTER
President sof Firemen's Brotherhood
Charges Statistics Submitted to
Commission Are "Salted."

New York, March 15.-W. $. Carter,
president of the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Firemen. to-day accused the fifty
four railroads with whom the firemen
are in controversy, of having made false
reports to the Interstate Commerce Com
mission. The chLrge was made during
the hearing of the arbitration board,
which is trying to adjust the differences
between the railroads and the tiremen.
He questions the accuracy of the state
ment by W. J. Lauck, the government
expert. that the average increase in
wages OF firemen during the last two
years had been IS per cent.
Mr. Lauck has been obliged TO base his
figures on reports in the Interstate Com
merce Commission from the railroads"
said Carter. (which We're absolutely err
roneous 1t has been the custom for
years for the railroads to make these
reports. which do not account for all
their employees. They report only the
higher-priced men, leaving the part time
men out. and thus falsify the statistics
which Mr.. Lauck had to consult. In
other words, Mr.. Lauck had to work
in a mine that had been salted.'
