Heads of Railroads
Ask President Wilson
to Appeal For Them
Rr Assoeiatcd Prets

Washington, D. c., Sept. 9.-Presi
dent Wilson was asked to-day by a
committee of railroad executives to
address an appeal to the country that
the people take a more sympathetic
attitude toward the railroads. The
committee did not ask Mr.. Wilson to
move for any specific relief. but told
him he could do much to remove an
tagonism, which, they said, had grown
up toward the railroads as a result
of much agitation.
The President agreed to give careful
consideration to the statement of the
railroad men, but made no promises
on their requests. He is understood
to favor the railroads need of assist
ance.
The specific requests of the railroad
men were:
That the President will call the at
tention of the country to the press
Ing necessity for support of railroad
credit by the cooperative and SYM
pathetic effort of the public and of all
governmental authorities and that the
railroads be relieved as far as possible
of further immediate burdens involv-
ing additional expense.
That the President will urge a
practical recognition of the fact that
an emergency is upon the railroads
which requires, in the public interest,
that they have an additional revenue
and that the appropriate governmental
agencies seek way by which such
additional revenues may he properly

CANOE|STS HURLED
BENEATH DAM PIERS
Boat Smashed to Bits in Swift
Wells Water" on West
ern Side of River

While mancuverinE too close to the
river dam in the deeper Wells water
on the western side of the river yester-
day, Charles Eager and William Boy
son. two youthful canoeists, were
swung around by the swift current and
the little craft was overturned. Both
boys were thrown into the stream
which is particularly swift and deep
at that point. more than ordinarily so
at this stage of the river. The canoe
was drawn under a couple of flats
upon which gangs of the contracting
firm of the f. n. Skene Company were
working, and before they could rescue
the boys both slipped from sight be-
meath the open pier frames of the
dam-under water.
AS he passed under the dam Eager
grasped at a. steampipe which was
operated over the side of the
"dredger" and which was used to bore
into the foundation rock of the river.
He tried to stop himself by clinging to
the pipe and was severely burned be-
fore he managed to get to the sur
without any serious injury aside from
a thorough drenching. Their canoe
was badly battered.
Canoeists who are a trifle too in
trepid are causing the contractors
and the employees grave concern. The
boatmen try to see how nearly they
can get to the breast of the dam with
out touching. Sunday two boys were
thrown out and their canoe was
smashed to kindling on the dam.
