Baltimore, Nd, Nov.> 25.-The
American Federation of Labor today
refused to go on record against
efforts to, obtain the eight-houF day

Instead, the federation put the is
sue over for another year, during
which a special committee will con-

Desire not to embaTrass President
Wilson because Of his work in forcing
an eight-hour day law for railroad

Lear of Minneapolis, representative

than our own organization has in the
past two conventions. He referred
to the fact that the past two conven-

efforts to obtain the shorter work

little discussion. The vote was 1876

by the failure OF the alimentary canal

Neal and a small guard of marines

wireless operator handed it to him as
it was received. E@..

The Brute never heard him. He
only heard the onrushing train. He
seized a loose rail- lying by the track
He thrust 1t under the stationary rail
the nearest hirn-he thrust Il into
the roadbed. He jerked and strovs
at it like demon.
Within, Joe Welcher heard It com.

made one dive. and plunged into the
safety Of the jungle.
Hernandez dared not move. Safety
lay in his remaining up track-out Of
the danger zone below. He felt that
the Brute was doing fruitless work
that no man, no human agency with
minutes time could raise that rail.
He didn't know-there was something
