Underwater Craft Pops Up 100
Yards Ahead Of Cunarder
Near Liverpool

London, June 22.-The prompt ac-
ton of Captain Kinnard. of the Gu
narder Cameronia. which sailed from
New York June IL and docked yes
terday at Liverpool. probably saved
the ship from being torpedoed by a
German submarine. Peter Fletcher. of
New York. an intimate friend of Sec
retary of the Interior Lane, related the
narrow escape of the Cameronia to-
day when he called at the American
n:bassy.
With his wife. Mr.. Fletcher sailed
on the Cameronia, feeling, as he told
embassy attaches, that 1t was just as
safe to travel on liner flying the Brit
ish flag as on an American ship in view
of the promiscuous attacks by Ger
mans on all shipping.
II was broad daylight Sunday morn
ing at Z o'clock and the Cameronia
was steaming slowly into the mouth of
the Mersey when Captain Kinnard saw
a periscope pop out of the water 100
yards ahead.
Suddenly a submarine rose to the
surface of the water. The Camera

it. The engineroom responded to a
call for full steam and the Cameronia
fairly leaped ahead.
The captain made a bee line for the
submarine. 1t looked as if the liner,
says Fletcher, who was standing on
the promenade deck. would ram the
submarine fairly in the middle, but the
submarine shot down into the water.

Three minutes later the submarine
appeared on the opposite side of the

There was the hint OF longing on
Esther Halstead's face as Alica fin
ished showing her through the dainty
little Goldcrest apartment. Not the
longing for freedom which seemed the
principal reason for Alica's delight;
not the pride of ownership the
younger girl had displayed. but the
thought of how perfectly 1t would
serve as a setting for the life she had
imagined with the man she loved. the
picturing OF Felix Lynn's occupying
special little hooks and cosners Of the
apartment-that was what brought the
tears all unconsciousiy to her eyes.
"And you will come to my reception
-just a little house-warming tomor-
row afternoon, Esther?"
She started to shake her head in
dissent, smiling At the eagerness of the
girl to begin making the most of her
new-found liberty. But Alica pratt
tied on before she had time to an
swer.
First I'm going to ask Felix Lynn
and"
EstheZ's lips parted In a smile. She
could not forego the delight of seeing
him again. And in such intimate sur
toundings! True, she owed great
Zeal to her ailing father. But she
owed debt to this other man as well.
While Alica darted to the phone,

thought il over. Was she doing right
or wrong? Torn between two impulses
even without the right to consider her
Dwn desires she could make no deci-
sion without hurting father or hus-
band. But 1t meant possibly the life
Of her father. and IL Felix refused to
wait the short time old John Halstead
had to live. If he could not be unself-
lsh then-She frowned unhappify as
she thrust the thought away from her.
Felix is living on his yacht now"
Alica poutingly announced as she re-
entered the room.
Esther smiled lightly as she took
her leave. Lacking irrespopsibility
herself, it was charmingly delightful to
her in others. And it was SO becom-

It regarded as its legal right to Retire
from an arrangement which hauled
its own lines, and contended that il
was entitled to the long haul on pas
senger traffic to and from territory
served by the Oregon Short Line.
The principal reason assigned being
the large expenditures made by the
Union Pacific in the construction of
branch iines-particularly to Yellow
stone Park and in Oregon Short Line
territory, the testimony indicating
that in recent years, $10o,0OOOOO were
expended in the construction Of
branches for the purpose of enabling

Miners Making Gains

Scranton, Pa.-The organizing cam
paign of the United Mine Workers
union in the anthracite districts is be-
ing vigorously waged and large
crowds everywhere greeted President
White and his associates to hear
the gospel of trade unionism again
defended and explained. The recnt
convention of district No l, held in
this city, has stimulated interest
throughout the anthracite section, be-
cause the demands made indicate the
possibilities of 100 per cent organ
ization.
These demands include an eight
hour day for all men andboys inand
around the mines; a general wage adj
vance Of 25 per cent: time and one
half for holidays, and double time for
Sundays, the adjustment of con-
tract mining and increased wage
for fireman, carpenters, blacksmiths
and other workers other than miners.

Washington-The United States
treasury department has announced
that plans have been perfected by
which, after August 10. all govern
ment money and securities will be
transported by registered mail. The
express companies have handled this
business for rs years and their rev.
enue from that source amounted to
approximately $500,000 annually. De-
spite claims first made by postoffice
officials that the parcel post system
was only intended to be competitor
the express companies have been
injured and the end is not in sight.
One company-the Unite States Ex-
press-has already gone out of bust
ness. This concern had the contract
to transport for the government.
The charge was 20 cents a thousand
dollars from Washington to Phila-
delphia and. other nearby places, and
ranged up to 81 a thousand to San
Francisco. In the earlier days of the
contract the company was paid 81 so
a thousand to carry money to the Pa
cihc Coast This contract alone net
ted $15,000 in three years, of which
$245.0 600 was reimbursable by the ma
tional banks.

tory. Commissioner Harlan, in an
nouncing the majority opinion of the
commission says:
In addition to the shorter mileage
the service of the Union Pacific in
point of time is much superior. The
fastest train over its rails from Omaha
reaches Ogden in l8 hours and IS
minutes less time than the best train
between the same points over anv
other route in connection with the
ID. & r. C.
The situation before us is a very
practical one. The Denver and Rio
Grande Route as herinbefore pointed
out is longer by nearly 400 miles and
IS l9 hours longer in point of time.
Under such circumstances. if no
through route were now open. an or
der based on the record before us.
requiring the Union Pacific system
to short haul itself by establishing
the present parity of fares over the
Denver and Rio Grande, would be IL
logical and arbitrary in the highest
degree. 1t would be no less so
should we undertake to exercise our
power under the same provision Of
law compelling the Union Pacific to
continue rate adjustment which we
could not lawfully require it to estab-
lish as an original question"

Garment Workers Win Court Won't Interfere

New York.-In an award by board
of conciliation, appointed by Mayor
Mitchell, the International Ladies'
Garment Workers union has won a
signal victory over the Cloak, Suit and
Shirt Manufacturers Protective assoc
iation.
The board has dealt the employers
organization several hard blows, one
OF the most effective being a recon-
mendation that some method be de-
vised whereby claims of workers that
they are unjustly discharged may be
considered.
The conciliators express these views
on the theory that every man has the
right to run his own business"
NO human being is wise enough
to be able to trust his sole Judgment
in decisions that affect the welfare of
others; he needs TO be protected, and,
If he is truly wise, will welcome pro-
lection against the errors to which he
is liable in common with his kind, as
well as against the inspirations of pas
sions or .selfishness. For this reason,
a tribunal of some kind is necessary,
in case either of the parties to this
covenant believes itself to be unjust
1y aggrieved."
Wages are increased all along the
line and it is ordered that old proto-
col standards for piece work be again
renewed. This latter is most import
ant for it means an end, according to
President SchIesinger of the interna-
tional union, "to the haggling with
price committees in the shops, which
resulted in the discharge of workers
who demanded decent wage and the
ensiavement Of those workers who did
not hold out against the demands of
avaricious bosses"
Contracturai relations existed be-
tween the garment workers and their
employers for several years. On May
20 the employers abrogated the proco-
tol and announced they would no lon
ger deal with the union. The workers
declared their willingness to abrogate
and prepared to protect their interests.
A gigantic strike seemed imminent
when fhe employers abandoned their
warlike attitude.

New Orleans-Circuit Judge Ellis
has refused to restrain the Brother
hood of Carpenters from taking the
charter from local of carpenters in
this city. The defunct union started
suit but Judge Ellis held that the laws
of the brotherhood gave ample pro-
lection to all concerned.
He said
Plaintiff still has the right to ap-
peal to the general convention OF the
United Brotherhood (of Carpenters
and Joiners). and that pending said
appeal provision is made for the hold
ing in trust the funds and entire ef-
fects of the plaintiff by proper author
ity, and that provision is also made
for the members of the plaintiff S
union in good standing by the is
suance of clearance cards which re-
tain them upon their compliance with
the rules of the brotherhood in all
their rights as members: and further
considering that under the facts here
shown the duty of the court is to alb
stain from interference in the internal
affairs of the brotherhood"
The unions charter was revoked on
complaint of locals No. 1912 and lS46
sustained by committee of investi-
cation.
