AWARD MUST BE BINDING

Previous DecIsions-Vote
FaVors WaIkout.

Chicago, July 16-UnleSs the SO
western railroads give a guarantee
that the finding of the arbitration
board would be obeyed, the locomotive
firemen and engineers declare they
will never submit their demands to ar
bitratiOn. This was the announcement
made by Grand Chief Engineer War
rem S. Stone of the engineers and w.
S. Carter of the fremen Tuesday.
The dispute between the railroads
and their engineers and flremen in
wolves an additional annual wage pay
ment of approximately $33,000,000. The
railroads managers insist that be-
cause of adverse legislation and bust
ness conditions they cannot pay the
extra sum.
The Railroad General Managers as
sociation received notice that the vote
of the engineers and firemen was ap-
proximately unanimous against renew
ing the present wage agreement and
IN favor Of strike If satisfactory
settlement could not be made.
After the announcement the railroad
officials asked that the result of the
vote and what the engineers and fire.
men expect to receive from the SO
roads be submitted in writing. This
document was presented to the rail-
road officials Their answer may be
a complete refusal that will end nego-
tiations or may leave loophole for
further negotiations and a settlement
In the event that the railroad Off
Gals refuse to consider any Of the de-
mands Of the employees the United
States commissioner of labor will be
called in as a mediator. Neither side
will object to this program, as the
United States mediator's duty Is to try
to induce the contending parties to
make a settlement by agreement. If
the mediator fails he will suggest that
the whole controversy be left to arbi-
tration. Up to this point there will be
little excitement But when arbitra-
ton is suggested the basis upon which
It will be accepted by the engineers
and firemen will bring the crisis.
1T may be some time before the
question of arbitration arises said
Grand Chief Stone. when it does
there must be some understanding as
to whether the railroads will comply
with whatever award is made. In the
East the railroads have failed to obey
the award /of an arbitration board
made two years ago. We will not per-
NIT such a situation to arise in the
West We must have a guarantee that
whatever award 8 made will be re-
ligiously obeyed.
1--WE do nos have to arbitrate unless
we wish"
Members of the mediation board in
Washington await the outcome of the
labor dispute with much interest, and
are ready to start to Chicago at any
dime to adjudicate the dispute If pos
sible The officials who will endeavor
to settle the strike, if it is called, are

prone along the grass when patches
of blue and green were seen on the

enemy were made out, following each
other at regular intervals.

holes through them. 'Bravo!' shouted
my platoon commander. as he watched
through his glasses.
Now the order was given TO fix
bayonets. Before the enemy arrived,
the artillery fire had increased until

mans escaped. however, for whole
platooLs rushed to the rescue, empty

~ moment later the Germans were
on US from the front. We let them
come until their breasts rose above
the neighboring hillOck and then de-
cimatsd them. They fell back in con-
fusion and dropped to the ground.
Another line came. which We treat
ed the same way. Scores of machine
guns we're turned on us, however and
we were ordered to prepare to charge.
"On the word OF command we

and with veil after yell charged the ad-
yancing Prussians. AS we neared
their ranks we fired indiscriminately
and only few remained to cross bayo-
