RYAN WOULD
END LONG STRIKE
Convicted President of Iron Workers
Suggests Settlement with Open-Shop
Contractors.

indianapolis, Feb. 26.-Possible meth
DDS of ending the strike OF the lnterna-
tional Association OF Bridge and Struct-
ural Iron Workers which has continued
for seven years against open shop con-
tractors, were discussed at the assoela-
tion's annual convention yesterday.
President Frank NJ. Ryan reported the
union was forming plans to treat with
the contractors for settlement. Most
OF the open shop" contractors are mem
beers Of the National Erectors' assocla-
ton.
1t was to promote this strike, 1t was
charged at the dynamite conspiracy trial
here last December, that John J. Nc
Namara. then secretary Of the union, re-
sorted to the use of explosives. Presi-
dent Ryan and thirtytwo other union
officials were convicted of conspiracy in
connection with the plots. The sugges-
ton for possible settlement was made
by Ryan at secret session OF the con-
vention. Afterwards he stated that the
plan had not developed to the extent
that a conference between union officials
and the contractors had been arranged.
Ryan and ten other delegates who ere
attending the convention were recently
released from the Leavenworth peniten-
tiary on bonds. So far the convention
has been devoted to preliminary bust
ness.

Little Change In Prices, Which Remain

Boston, Feb. 26.--The week opens in
the local market for butter, cheese and
eggs without much change from the
conditions of late last week. No in
crease is noted in the supply OF fine,
fresh butter, prices of which hold high
and firm with no easing of this grade,
prices hold up well on the less de-
sirable offerings. Fancy cheese is in
light supply and firmly held, but there
is good supply of ordinary TO faIr

slight differences over prices stand in
the way OF sales. There is steadier
feeling in the egg market, as the de-
mand is fairly brisk and receipts rather
below expectations. Supplies are still
too large for any advance in prices, how
ever. The marketing of storage eggs
is still going on at the best prices that
can be obtained.

Criticism for tty.-General
Understands Scheme
for Dissolution

San Francisco, Feb. 26.--The applica-
ton of the Union Pacific to lease the
Southern Pacific line from Oakland TO
Benica for 900 years has been refused
by the state railroad commission. This
is victory for the Western Pacific road,
which requested that it receive the same
privileges as the Central Pacific The
exclusive lease OF the Benicia short
line was part of the merger dissolution
plan.
The commissions decision is in line
with its determination to insist on open
competition between the Union Pacific
and the Southern Pacific, with no Ia
vors from one to the other because OF
their past connection, in Interpretation
Of the supreme courts order OF dissolu-
ton.
Attorneys demanded for the Western
Pacific equal rights with the Central Pa
cifc and were upheld in each instance
In regard to the leasing of the Benicia
short line the decision says:
IF the Southern Pacific grants the
Central Pacific the right to use the Ben
icia short line it shall accord to all
the competing carriers ike privilege on
similar terms"
The ruling OF the commission and
statement of its attitude toward dis
solution were telegraphed to Attorney
General Wickersham. The telegram crit
icized the plans as previously agreed
upon between Mr. Wickersham and the
railroad officials. IL is suggested by the
commission that instead of forcing the
Southern Pacific to sell the Central line
from Ogden to San Francisco, the Cen
trail be leased for a long term OF years
to the Union Pacific. thus making "a
through line for the Union Pacific from
Omaha to San Francisco.
The other requests in the joint appl-
cation of the Southern and Central Pa
cific respecting leases and transfers We're
approved by the commission.
