RAILROAD co. LAYS
 OFF B. & B. GANG
OF DELAY IN CON- WAY DEPOT SEEN IN RATE
 DECISION.

The possibility of a delay in the construction of the new passenger de- pot at Conway as an indirect result of the decision for the state in the rail road rate cases yesterday has been suggested by the fact that a bridge and building gang at work in this city on the railroad stock pens was "laid off, by orders received this morning. A policy of retrenchment along all lines will probably be inaugurated by the Iron Mountain, and no time was lost in putting it into effect here.
 As to the new depot, however, it is understood that the contract for this already been awarded, and Super intendent c. B. Wildman wrote Mayor wv. H. Duncan several days ago that work would begin before the end of the month. Several carloads of ma terial for the new building have al ready been received.
The log cabin Democrat., 1913-06-17
THE RATE CASE.

The decision of the United States supreme court upholding the Arkan. sas statutes fixing a two-cent passen- ger rate and allowing the state rail road commission to prescribe maxi mum freight rates for intra-state rail road traffic comes as a welcome sur prise. It means that the roads must immediately return to the tWo-cent rate for passenger traffic and lower their freight rates in accordance with the tariffs fixed ly the commission about six years ago. In addition to this the railroad companies will be re- sponsible to their patrons for every dollar in excess of these rates that has been collected since they were en- joined.
 Although the lower federal courts have been notorious in the uniformity with which they have decided import ant issues between corporations and the people in favor of the corpora tions, there has been in the past year or two marked tendency upon the part of the highest tribunal in the land to recognize the rights and inter ests of the people.
 Looking back over the long and ap- parently hopeless fight, we must give the greatest measure of credit for this victory for the people to former Gov ernor George w. Donaghey. It was he who led in the first battle in the courts, and it was his insistent de- mand that the legislature of 1911 aps propriated $50,000 to carry the case to the highest court. For this appro- priation he was severely criticised by many who charged that it was a use- less waste of money to attempt to combat the railroads in federal courts. In order to secure the best available legal talent, Governor Donaghey took the chief justice, Judge Joseph M Hill, from the supreme bench, and ap- pointed him as counsel for the state This also brought much criticism, but the signal victory in the supreme court vindicates the wisdom of Dona- ghey's course.

STRIKE OF TRAIN
MEN IS AVERTED
r. r. COMPANIES WITHDRAW THE
DEMAND FOR ARBITRATION
OF THEIR GRIEVANCES.
THIS is DONE TO "PRoTEcT THE
PEOPLE,"
Peaceful Settlement Of Differences Is
Assured Through Efforts of Board
Of Mediation Recently
Created.

The threatened strike of $4,000 con-
ductors and trainmen of as eastern
railroads, for higher wages and i'm
proved working conditions, will not be
called.
Articles of agreement to arbitrate
under the Newlands act the questions
at issue were signed by the employees
representatives and the conference
committee of railroad managers.
The agreement was not reached I'M
til the managers had withdrawn the
proposal that their own grievance
against the men also should be arbi-
trated. This claim, the managers an
nounced, they had relinquished to
protect the public" from tie-up
which the employees intended to force
if the railroads persisted in pressing
their point
The peaceful outcome of the dispute
was the result of efforts made by the
board of mediation and Cancellation,
recently created in the hurriedly pass
ed Newlands act, to meet the situa-
ton. The board, consisting of Judge
William Lea Chambers, Judge Martin
A. Knapp and G.. w. w. Hanger,
brought about today's agreement after
conferences with the disputants which
continued more than week.

BY STRIKERS.
A Sympathetic Strike Is Feared In the
Neighborhood of Ishpeming In
Order to Divide the

Morgan & Grierson Meat Market at
the Centennial mine was totally de-
stroyed by fire. Proprietors did not
know how the fire started. There
were no demonstrations by miners.
The Centennial nine furnishes water
protection but being shut down no
pressure was available. 1t is claimed
that this store had announced that it
would no longer extend credit TO
strikers.
Threats of incendiarism have been
made by miners in the Centennial
location, according to General Peerley
l.. Abbey AS result, scouts are be
ing hurried out in every direction
while the Calumet & Hecla has turn
ed out small army of loyal employees
who are on watch at every building
owned by the Calumet & Hecla.
Confirmation of the report that trou
BILE is likely to occur in Iron county
as result of the strike in the copper
country came when hand bills were
distributed by the representatives Of
the Western Federation of Miners
calling a mass meeting of the iror
workers in Union park, the baseball

TREATY TO Be MODIFIED
More Liberty Granted to Nicasagus
In Amended Draft of Bryan
Proposal.

Important notifications are to be
made in the proposed treaty with Mic
aragua, by which the United States
would establish protectorate over
the southern republic. 1t has been
discovered that by the terms of the
agreement originally outlined by Sec
rotary Bryan, Nicaragua would have
been prevented from ever joining with
other republics TO form a single cen
trail American union.
This was not contemplated by the
administration when the treaty was
proposed; and the suggestion has
created suspicion among other central
American countries. Secretary Bryan
and members of the senate foreign
relations committee agreed that the
original draft Of the treaty should be
changed.
The United States viii not adopt
an aggressive attitude, Secretary
Bryan said, in attempting TO negotiate
any additional treaties.

Court Sues An American Magazine.

The Russian Grand Duke Boris pur-
poses following the example of King
George and Col Roosevelt by bringing
his detractors into court. Attorneys
for the grand duke have given notice
of a libel suit against an American
magazine which has wide circulation
in England. The article which the
magazine published described the
graz duke career in Manchuria dur
ing the Russo-Japanese war as lurid
episode, and said that Gen. Kuropat-
kin sent him back TO Russia. The
case is to be tried in London, if it
comes to trial, and lawyers are trying
to gather evidence here now.
