Conflicting stories regarding the
life of railroad telegrapher, station

members of the Federal Board of Ar

A. +. Bim, secretary of the Teleg-
raphers' Brotherhood east Of Buffalo,
and Vincent Marcinkowski, assistant
station agent for the West Shore. at
West Point, told Of the troubles OF

troubles came from questions OF Day

Others Offer Their Pets.
Many other little boys, some of whom

Settlement Brought About oy
Mayor-Workers Seek ~
Per Cent Raise.

Pence in the strike Of the garment
workers, involving $4,000 men NJ"

was virtually assured BY an agreemeh'
reached in Mayor Mitchels office yes
,erdav. Under it's terms ten OF me
uanufacturers will meet with fourteen
representatives Of the union to-day ana
begin discussion Of their difficulties
There will be many bitter disputes
according to leaders Of both sides pu'
there appears 10 be agreement on
settlement which will give the workers
a 10 per cent increase in pay and addi'
tional pay for work over ten hours
The settlement Of the strike was
forecast by the sudden statement oi
Morris Hillquit, who, with benjamin
Schlesinger, had been representing 'he
strikers. that he thought negotiations
had reached the vital point.
Just give me safe conduct across
the trenches, your honor" he said 20
the Mayor, "and I guess we can close
this hearing"
Hilluuit strode across the mo Man 5
Land" between the manufacturers ana
workers and seized the hand of william
Klein. who, with +. J. Vile, had oeeh
spokesman for the manufacturers. AZ
ter brief conversation they announced
that committees from both sides wouIn
meet to-day.
Mayor Congratulated on Efforts.
At the conclusion of the meeting
Mayor Mitchell was congratulated LOT
the manner in which he had secured an
agreement between the opposing par
ties. Time after time it appeared as II
the gap between the manufacturers anu
the workers could not be crossed. Sew
eral of the suggestions Of the Mayor
were refused fatty by the manufactur-
ers. but little by little ne sifted the
conflicting views down to the point OF
agreement.
The Mayor opened the meeting by
suggesting tnat the manufacturers anu
the union each name committee OF
two men and that he be permitted to
name a presiding officer The manu-
facturers Immediately announced that
they were opposed to any form OF ar
bitration, but were willing to appoint
a committee TO meet the men across
the table" TO arrive at settlement
They said that they believed the main
! issues of the strike-the employers
right TO hire or discharge and the
workers right TO strike II they be
lieved this power abused-had already
! been agreed upon.
Private Conference Criticised.
Hillquit protested against private

Experiments with Rabbits.
In the meantime experiments arc

has taught physicians that IN paralysis

certain. and il is seldom that the pest
results are obtained.
As a basis for their work the pac-

children who have had paralysis ana

to further attacks of the disease, ana
that their blood develops properties an

Home Food Is Preferred.


The central institutions and each OF
the seven stations distribute to per-
sons who desire to take food to their
homes. All the places are equipped
to feed such persons as desire 10 eat
there. The majority, however, see
to prefer to take the food home.
Those desiring to take advantage or
the institution apply a week ahead and
surrender seven-tenths of their meat
card and two-thirds Of their potato
card and receive for these card con-
tanning seven coupons. When an appl.-
cant appears at an eating hall he pre-
sents a coupon and forty pfennigs,
receiving a check emitting him 70 one
litre Of food.
The arrangements worked bit slow
", but otherwise well for an opening
day. The members of the various
women's associations voluntarily do
the work of ladling out the food and
waiting on the tables.
Covers Actual Expenses.
Head Burgomaster Wermuth. who
spent a great part of the day IN the
central kitchen, said that the sum OF
penses. including food and labor. The
city naturally makes no account OF
rentals. and will expend eventually
between 100000 and 100000 marks
in equipment. The Burgomaster added:
zone advantage naturally is that Dy
cooking vast quantities, as here, the
food can be furnished cheaper than the
people could prepare it for themselves.
Quite as important, however, is the
fact that applicants, especially women
who are obliged 70 work all day, are no
longer compelled TO waste weary and
protitless hours standing in line before
provision shops.
"A number of big factories are AL
ready taking advantage of the new IN
stitutions. one alone ordering 700 por-
tions daily. Next week we Will open a
similar institution in another city
ward. the following week another, and
the third week one at the great central
stockvards, where 10000 persons can be
fed daily. We have plans to feed
250 900 a day two months from now, but
there is no limit we shall go half a
million if the demand exists"
Good Crops Looked For.
The Berlin war food office, OF which
Adolph Won Batocki is head. announced
to-day that crop reports from various
sections Of the country were, for the
most part. very favorable.
1t is stated that II there is good
harvest weather an average harvest
can certainly be expected. In the worst
case, hay, clover, breadstuffs and fod-
der will be far better that last years
yields.
After the next few weeks, during
which. stocks on hand must still be
resorted to, the food office says that
an important betterment in the whole
food situation can be reckoned on.
Meats and fats only will remain com
paratively scarce, but measures have
already been taken to meet the re
quiremcnts Of the consumers. A re
duction in food prices is also being
contemplated wherever possible.
