GHICAGO'S BIG STRIKE ENDS
Both Sides in Street Railway contro-
Versy Agree TO Arbitrate-credit
to Mayor Thompson

Chicago, June 17-NoTmal service
On Chicago elevated and surface car
lines was resumed today as the result
of an agreement reached after railway
and labor representatives and coun-
Gil committee headed by Mayor
Thompson, in an a1l-night session, had
agreed on arbitration.
The elevated lines ran cars soon
after the announcement that there had
been an agreement to arbitrate, but 1t
was several hours before anything Ike
a normal schedule was in operation
On the surface lines the first to appear
down town reached the loop about IL
o'clock. They attracted great crowds
and were enthusiastically cheered-
Thereafter there was a gradual in
crease in the number, but 1t was not
until the rush hours Of the evening
that the surface lines were in full
operation
The formal agreement between the
companies and the unions to arbitTate
all differences was not signed until
noon, although the order had gone
out several hours before to the 1900
employees to return to work Mayor
Thompson is credited with bringing
about the agreement to arbitrate, and
he was chosen by both sides as the
third or neutral arbiter- The other
two will be chosen by the respective
interests before Saturday, on which
day the first meeting of the three arbi-
tiers is to be held.
In working out the arbitration
agreement it was agreed that as to
wages there shall be no arbitration
downward, and that 3trippers," men
who work only during the rush hours
OF traffic, will be eliminated Every
point of difference betyeen the men
and the employers is to be decided by
the arbiters-
The strike breakers who were col
lected in Chicago to supplant the car
line strikers were being hustled out OF
the city tonight under police guard.
At every railroad station extra police
were on duty and as fast as new ar
rivals alighted from trains they were
herded and ordered to get out immed-
lately.

RUSSIANS FORCED
BACK TO LEMBERG
Berlin Declares Retreat 10 Gal
icia Continues Ali Along
the Entire Line.
LETUP ON WESTERN FRONT
Breathing Spell Follows Heavy Fight
ing Except in Alsace, Where
French Continue Advance

Berlin, June 19.-Dispatches from
the press headquarters of the AustTo-
Hungarian army indicate = that the
Russians everywhere have been driV-
en- back on their last defenses before
Lemberg.
The Russian troops along this line
comprise the Third and Eighth Ar
mics, which, after their repulse in
May and their retirement from the
San front, again were brought up to
their normal strength in men and re-
ceived heavy reinforcements of new
artillery.
Russians Lack Training.
The dispatches say the retirement
of the Russians is being effected with
considerable disorder. 1t is added
that among the prisoners taken are
many territorials who stated they
were drilled only for a fortnight be-
fore they were dispatched to Galicia
and received rifles only when they
were assigned to the division of the
reserves.
Having defeated the Russians on
the San line, the dispatches say Field
Marshal Conrad Won HoetzendOrf is
pounding against the crossing of the
Dniester, where it is said the heaviest
fighting is in progress. The Austro-
Germans, it is asserted, are pushing
the campaign with the utmost energy
and without regard to the expenditure
of men or munitions.
Breathing Spell in West.
London, June 19.-On the western
line, seemingly, a breathing spell has
followed the heavy combats of pre-
ceding days, except in Alsace, where
the French declare they are continu-
ing to advance in the region of Met
zeral and along both banks of the
Fecht River. In this region Paris
asserts that the French troops are
holding under their fire the German
line of communications between Met
Zeral and Munster.
Vienna reports that heavy losses
were inflicted on the Italians near
PLAYA when Dalmatian troops repuls-
ed an attack. 1t is added that the
Italian offensives on the Isonzo front
have met with little success.
Another British steamer, the Ailsa,
has been sent to the bottom by Ger
man submarine of the southeast coast
of Scotland.

HARVESTER CASE TO DECIDE
If Supreme Court Rules Against the
Government Only Recourse Will
be Clayton Law.

Washington, June 16.-Reyiewing
twenty-five years OF trust prosecu-
ton and of interpretations by the fed
sraI courts OF the Sherman Anti
Trust Law, officials Of the department
of justice today reached the conclu-
sion that the ultimate usefulness of
that statute to regulate business
would be determined by the United
States Supreme Court probably within
the next few months.
A long series of victories for the
government, for the most part in the
enforcement of the civil side of the
act, has been followed in the last few
months by several defeats, both in
minor courts and in the supreme court
So far as the civil section of the law
is concerned, the government looks
upon the suit to dissolve the Interna-
tional Harvester Company as of the
utmost Importance. The principal
case involving the criminal end of the
Sherman Law now beforee the courts
is that against officers and directors
of the New York, New Haven & Hart
ford railroad.
If the Harvester suit finally is lost
II W dS duuAIlt6U lOHISuI lu6 OnSIuldnch
Law will become virtually a dead let
ter and the government in the future
must depend upon the Clayton anti
trust act to curb unlawful practices
in business.
The refusal Of the supreme court
yesterday to permit review of the
reversal of the conviction of officers
of the National Cash Register Com
pany may have some influence on the
courts to be followed in the future in
respect to criminal actions
At the department it was declared
that the governments attitude toward
business combinations had been mis-
understood since the recent decision
of the lower courts in the civil anti
trust suit against the United States
Steel Corporation. The department, it
was said, was not proceeding against
combinations because of their size
alone.

AFTER The MONEY
State Flooded With Schemes
of Loan and Investment
Companies.
SEATOR SENDS OUT WARNING
"Blue Sky" Department Tells Farm
srs How to Escape the Shares
of the Grafters.

An effort will be made by Sam
Seaton of the blue sky department
to keep the prosperous wheat farmers
of Kansas from being separated from
their money by the financial vul-
lures" as he calls them. The big
wheat crop with its big prices will
give the farmers a lot of money. They
are out of debt and will be looking
for some place to invest their cash.
Seaton is afraid that the "vuItures"
will get it.
In a circular letter to the 500 news
papers of Kansas Mr.. Seaton gives
this warning:
Numerous mail order" loan and in
Vestment companies have been, for
several months, making a vigorous
campaign for Kansas business through
the United States mails. The banking
department has investigated a number
of these mail order enterprises and so
far not single one has been found in
possession of a clean bill of health,
while most Of them are clearly both
unlawful and fraudulent.
This sort of contract has been de-
clared to be nothing less than a lot

the courts of a dozen states.
The usual plan of business is to Of
fer the investor a contract calling for
the monthly payment of various sums
for period of from so to 100 months.
After the payment of a certain number
of installments, usually six, the in
Vestors become eligible" to receive
loan; but when or whether the inves-
tor will ever receive loan depends
not only on the number of his certifi-
cate, but upon the further chance that
the company will sell enough more
contracts to provide the money with
which to make the loan.
The banking department takes this
opportunity of giving the public fair
warning that money invested with
these mail order loan and investment
enterprises will almost certainly en-
tail loss. Any person receiving liter
ature of this character will confer a
favor by forwarding it to this depart
ment The department also stands
ready to serve the public by making
prompt investigation and reply to any
person who is tempted to deal with
one of these concerns.
