"a PER CENT
OF TRATNMEN
WOULD STRIKE
Railroads Will Resist ANY
Attempt at Settlement
by Arbitration
DECLARE MEN ARE
GETTING FAIR WAGES
By r6e United Press.

T
NEW YORK, July S-Ninety-four
per cent of the conductors and train
men on the eastern railroads have
voted in favor of strike unless their
demands for increased wages are
granted. This was the announcement
made today by representatives of the
employees who met the conference
committee of railway managers to dis
cuss the demands.
According to the count Of the ball
lots announced to the railway man
ayers 1858 men voted, and of this
number only 4,210 were opposed to a
strike. OF the conductors voting SO
per cent favored a strike and SO per
cent of the trainmen favored similar
action.
The usual appeal for arbitration of
the difference under the Erdman act
will be made by the conductors and
trainmen, but the railroads will re-
sist such a settlement. The railway
managers insist that the men are now
getting fair wage and that they can
not stand an increase at this time The
increase demanded would add $75,-
100000 annually to the payrolls Of
the So railroads involved, the man
ayers assert.
Although the danger Of a strike is
not regarded as imminent, 1t is ad-
mitted that such a strike as the con-
ductors and trainmen have voted in
favor of calling, would be one of the
most disastrous in the history of the
country. The railroads object to ar
filtration under the Erdman act on the
ground that the commission provided
for under this law is not of sufficient

VETERANS WHO

Of the war the former was attached TO

ed iii Andersonville prison Tor many
months.
While walking over the Gettysburg
field last week, Mr.. Stanton, who had
shed his uniform because OF the heat,
met another veteran similarly disrobed
for like reasons. Neither of course could
tell whether the other had been Con-
federate or a Unionist. Both fell into
conversation. however, and before long
each was satisfied of the others identity.
Stanton's chance acquaintance was Bird,
the man who had assisted at his capture
at Spottsylvania. When Stanton told
of his suiferings in the prison at Ander-
sonville, Bird replied that he, too, had
lain in a prison, but that his discom-
forts had been milder than Stanton's.
Bird had been incarcerated in Fort Del
aware, where the sanitary conditions
were much better than in any of the
southern prisons. Indeed, Bird had left
Fort Delaware in pretty good physical
condition, while Stanton had survived his
experiences at Andersonville with great
difficulty. Stanton attributed his sur
vival to his extreme temperance. He is
now in good health.
Bird later married a Wilmington girl.
He told Mr.. Stanton, in their conversa-
tion at Gettysburg, what her maiden
name had been, but the name has es-
capped Mr. Stantnn's memory.

rather lose with our principles than win
without them; we will never amalgamate
with the Republican party until every
Progressive principle is in the statute
books OF every state and OF the United

talk about amalgamation.
With this declaration OF continued war
fare Governor Hiram Johnson, of Cali
fornia, opened his campaign for the cleo
ton of the Progressive candidates in
New Jersey tonight. after an audience
OF about 500 persons had cheered him as
the man who had put the 'Japs" out OF
California.
I'VE have listened to the suggestions
that We amalgamate with the Republican
party" said Governor Johnson. They
have put forward the lure OF office, and
when we have asked them why they
wanted us TO return they answered
Why to win Well. we'd rather lose
with our principles than win without
them. For forty years the people Of Cal
ifornia were under an iron hand, but now
we're free. and we will never again go
back to the slavery OF party whose one
desire is Office and not principles"
THE Progressive party stands for the

Harvard University delivered lecture
at the University Of London last night
on Great Britain and America II
was a humorous exposition Of the re-
lations between the two countries dur

He said that though peace had been
kept since the Treaty OF Client, that
treaty had left behind potent seeds or
trouble and bitter feeling on both sides,
and that no fewer than six times since
1914 had we been on the very verge Of
war.
There was. said Professor sunni
