HOPE TO SETTLE
NEW HAVEN CASE
May Reach Agreement Even
After Government Files Suit
This Month.

WASHINGTON, July S.--Although
the department of justice is preparing
to go ahead and file It's long planned
anti trust suit for the dissolution of
the New Haven railroad system, At
torney- General McReynolds still is
hopeful of settlement without a
prolonged fight in the courts.
AS was announced some time ago,
President Wilson and the attorney
general have agreed that the suit
should be filed this month unless the
Massachusetts Legislature and The
executive committee of the railroad
agree on certain legislation necessary
for disposing of some OF the stocks
which the government contends are
being held in violation of law. The
attorney general has agreed to with
hold the suit until July Is.
Administration officials pin their
faith of settlement without long
fight on the fact that a new Legisla-
ture comes into existence on January
/. Under ordinary procedure a suit
filed this month would not proceed
very far by that time and could be
halted whenever the necessary legis-
lation for a peaceful settlement was
enacted The fact that a bill may
be filed this month comes as no sur
prise to administration officials. That
has been their announced plan all
along in the present circumstances.

Beat Westinghouse Man
Who Jokingly Declared
He Would Return to Job

PITTSBURGH, July s.-Stanley
Fielek, formerly employed in one OF
the Westinghouse factories, last night
told some of his friends. jokingly he
afterwards declared. that he was go
ing back TO work today. Soon after
midnight he was rescued by the crew
of street car from three men in
Braddock avenue who had beaten
him into insensibility. Two arrests
were made, and deputy sheriffs and
State troopers were looking for the
third assailant
There was no change In the situa-
ton in the strike district. Again
State troopers and strike pickets
worked side by side in the streets,
and company officers said they had
more men in the shops than at any
time since the strike was called.
Pickets intercepted number of men
brought from Cleveland and induced
them to return. paying their way.
The general strike committee pre-
pared another offer of settlement for
presentation to E. M. Herr, president
of the electric company, when he re-
turned from New York.

Compromise Lamont Claim


NEW YORK, July s.--Surrogate
Cohalan signed an order yesterday
permitting Mrs. Annette A. Bryant
and DR.. Wisner r. Townsend, ex-
ecutors of the estate of DR.. Joseph d.
Bryant, the noted surgeon, to COM
promise claim against the Bryant
estate held by Mrs. Julia Kinney La
mont, widow, of Colonel Daniel Scott
Lamont, who was secretary of war in

iV Dr. Bryant died on April 7 in st.

and also for $40, 800 interest.
DIR. Bryant's executors will deed
over to Mrs. Lamont the property at
80 West Forty eighth street, assign
ing to her a lease on the property
made to Elizabeth p Monroe. The
lease was made on May |, 1912, the

OBERGON ROUTS
FEDERAL TROOPS
illustrates Attempted Sortie
from GuadaIajara After
Long Battle.

Special 10 the Evening star.
ORELON, Jalisco. Mex, July s.
After thirty-six hours of savage
fighting the Constituencies forces
of General Obregon have utterly
routed strong Federal column which
attempted a sortie from Guadalajara,
Sunday night. Tuesday noon the
Federals, numbering from 5000 to
5000. fed southeastward In an effort
to return to Guadalajara.
The Federals sailed out from the
capital Sunday night under cover Of
darkness. The Constitutionalist ad-
vance guard surprised their outposts
near this town. which is twenty-five
miles northwest of Guadalajara. The
main bodies of both armies were soon
in action, and the battle ragged for q
day and a half without cessation.
The Federals were all but annihi-
lated. They abandoned ten troop
trains with many pieces of field artiI-
lery, which had been unloaded and
brought into action. Hundreds of
small arms and quantities Of provi-
sions were captured together with
several hundred prisoners.
The casualties on both sides we're
heavy, although no estimate has been
made by General Obregon. who per-
sonally commanded the Constitution
alists. The rout of the Federals
came with comparative suddenness,
as up to that time they had been
stubbornly defending their ground.
They left their dead and wounded on
the battlefield. The country between
Orenday and Guadalajara is very
rough, and General Obregon has sent
( coltlrnr fo the roar Of the Epdara Ia
in a thanking movement. He believes
the retreat of the enemy will be cut
off. General Dieguez commands the
f1anling column, while Obregon him.

forces

New York State "Suffs''
Take Steps to Avoid
] Error Made in New Jersey

NEW YORK, July S.-Mitchell
May, secretary of state, received a
delegation of members of the
Women's Political Union yesterday
and learned that the suffrage amend
ment had passed the Assembly. In
cidentally he refused to sign the suf-
frage petition, but promised to adver-
tise the suffrage amendment because
that was his duty. Miss Caroline
Lexow. field secretary of the union,
left him in no uncertainty as to her
opinion of the manner the New Jer-
sey suffragists were treated last
year.
Through some oversight. as you
undoubtedly remember" she began
automatically. "the resolution pro-
viding for suffrage failed to go from
the desk of the clerk of the New Jer-
sey Senate to the desk of the Score
tary of State after it had passed the
Legislature In the winter of 1918. The
suffragists found out in August that
is was not being advertised. but 1t
vas too late, and the Work had to be
done all over again last winter. Now,
Mr.. Secretary, we don't want any
such mistake to happen here. We
want you to give this matter your
personal attention"
IF 1t is my duty to do so, I'll have
to. 1t is not a matter of my personal
DESIRES replied the secretary There
upon Miss Lexow pulled out a copy
of the State Const tuition and read
the provision that each bill must be
advertised three months before cleo
ton in order to give new legislators
and their constituents a chance to
make up their minds on the subject.
Has your bill fulfilled all these
requirements" asked the secretary,
cautiously.
1T has, declared Miss Lexow. 1T
has passed the legislature and it is
inscribed among the general sessions
laws"
Very we'll" replied the secretary,
81 am going to Albany tomorrow, and
If you will write me letter embody-
ing all this, / shall be glad to look the
matter up and advertise your bill by
August 80

BOMB VICTIMS
{ COMRADES WILL
DEFY THE POLICE
Demonstration Over Urns Of
Ashes Will Come off,
Declares Berkman.

NEW YORK July s.--Anarehists
will pay tribute to their dead-the
victims of a tenement bomb explo-
sicn-in Union square Saturday. Po-
lice or no police, rules or no rules.
they were determined today that the
demonstration over the three urns of
ashes should be held as originally
planned
Alexander Berkman, leading anar-
cfist, said laconically today.
The demonstrations will come CT.
There VIII be no violence unless the
police themselves make it,
The health department today re-
manded its order that the bodies be
cremated by three O'Clock. The bodies
will be taken to Fresh Pond, Long
Island, crematory. From that place
the ashes of Carron, Hansen and
Berg will be brought tonight to the
anarchist publication Mother Earth,
offices, there to rest in state until
Saturday. Saturday morning, led by
Alexander Berkman and other prom
inent anarchists, procession Will
march to Union Square, set up the
urns before the crowd and listen
to speeches by Berkman, Laurence d.
Abbott, Elizabeth Gurley Flynn,
Carlo Resca and others. Aharchy's
throng. Berkman declared, but there
will be no violence unless the police
start trouble. he emphatically as
serted.
vigorous protest against the
health boards peremptory order for
today's disposition of the bodies will
be made at the meeting, Berkman
said. I'VE could force legal issue
on the ground that the bodies were
not completely identified, and the
laws say body can be held six
months in such case" Berkman de-
clared angrily today, but as we dc
not believe in laws we will only make
public protest in Union square. The
police may claim victory by fore
ing this cremation today-but the
funeral arrangements committee viii
proceed tonight with original plans.
BerlSman added that his followers
will ask no favors of the police, be-
lieving there is no law or rule of ''the
law enforcing group that demands a
permit for such funeral procession
and demonstration as they plan.
