Employees of Westinghouse Are Join- ed By Five Hundred From Union
 Switch Company.

PlTTSBURG, June 13.-The refus- al of the Westinghouse Electrical Company to arbitrate the present differences with the men on strike resulted today in. the calling out of 1,500 men working for the Union Switch.

 The. strikers claim that they have big strike fund and can continue the, strike indefinitely. while they say the contracts of the Westinghouse company, which must be filled short ly or heavy indemnity paid. will force the company to give in to the union demands.
 It, is expected that the strike will spread to all parts of the state and that every indusry in Pittsburg con- nected in any wa, with the manufac- 'ture of electrical appliances will be closed down. .-.o

from which a sudden advance into Turkey can be made.
 The Servians are certain to be drawn into the conflict because the defeat of Greece would mean the de spelling of the Servians of the ter ritory taken after the fight with Tur- key, when the Balkan states battled over the division of the spells.
 That Bulgaria will aid the Turks is certain, but the Roumanians are as sure to take the opportunity to grah another slice of Bulgaria. with the constant menace of a general Euro pean conflict always in sight.
 Austria is determined that no large power shall be welded in the Bal kans, because piece by piece she wants to extend her border southward and the small countries can offer nc resistance.

Archdeacon Stuck Says Wagon Roads and Trails Would Do More
 Good Than Railroads.

SEATTLE, June 13.-Archdeacon Stuck, the clergyman who climbed to the summit of Mount Mckinley, and who has spent many years in the north travelling from section to sec tion of the interior of Alaska, ar rived from the East today and gave out an. interview in which he said that the building of roads and trails was more necessary to the develop ment of Alaska than the building of a railroad. ....-
 The churchman says that a railroad could open but 8 small section of the vast territory; that only a fraction of. the northland would, be opened by the building, of a railroad to Fair banks, and that, in fact the tonnage for the road was not in sight and never. could, be- developed in the in terion Wagon roads and trails would have done moro good. and have given all. sections of the north a chance to develop, Rlacer mining sections do not need railroads, bat do, need roads.
 When his attention, was called to the vast agricultural lands of the in :terior the AArehdleacon q s.le laughed and asked where they were to be found, and that he. had yet. to see the lands described by many as existing in- the interior of Alaska.
 While admitting. that some agricul- tural land in the interior existed, yet he predicted that the building of the railroad. would result in the farm products being brought north and in to the interior to drive out the small farmer now. operating. about Fair banks. -
