ROADS TO FIGHT
EIGHT-HOUR DAY
Asserted Law Sought Will
Postpone Trouble, but Won't
Settle It

Chicago, ILL.,, Sept. /. = While rail-
road officials of the country generally
agreed to-day that passage by Con-
gress of the proposed eight-hour bill
would avert. the strike set by the four
brotherhoods of trainmen for next
Monday, many were of the opinion
that the railroads would decline to
accept the law without a contest in
the United States Supreme Court.
The plan to-day, as the result OF
conferences last night among presi-
dents of a number of the leading
roads was that no claim of unconsti-
tutionality will be interposed. but
should the measure be enacted it will
be studied by the railroad lawyers, and
if they deem it advisable they will
make test case in the courts.
Prepare For Strike
IF the men accept the measure il
will probably mean the postponement
of the strike, was the statement of Z
p. Ripley, president of the Atcheson
Topeka and Santa Fe. Such action
however, will mean but a temporary
settlement of present difficulties.
