Modern Science Responsible For Great
Number Of Living But Manned Men.

Paris, July 16.-One-armed and one
legged men are now so common as to
raise a question as to why they are so
numerous.
DR.. Auguste Broca, while admitting
that the changed conditions of warfare
and the scale of the operations must
necessarily multiply the number of am
putated limbs, claims that consider
able part of the increase in the proper
ton of survivors who lack a member is
due to the progress of surgery since the
war of 1870: in that conflict nearly all
the amputated men died of purulent in
fiction: in this war, thanks to progress
in medical science, they are nearly all
saved, he says.
In consequence, the den nds upon
manufacturers of artificial limbs are
out of all proportion to anticipations.
DR.. Broca considers that the construct
ors of artificial substitutes for members
or parts Of members have also made
great progress. Before the war real
ly efficient artificial member was an
object Of luxury; under the stress Of
circumstances, manufacturers have to
a great extent o5i.;tosSoted the distinc-
ton between the rich mans and the

VIEWS MANAGERS.
HEROIC MEASURES
TO AVERT STRIKE
Men Notify Companies Counting Of
Strike Vote Will Be Completed by
Aug. 5 - Roads Refuse to Recede
From Position Demanding Arhi.rs-
ton of Proposals and Demands.

Chicago, Aug. Harry A. Wheeler,
chairman of the national chamber of
commerce committee appointed to
work for the peaceful settlement OF
the eight -hour day and time and halt
overtime demands Of the four train
service brotherhoods, returned yester-
oay from New York after a confer
ence with the railroad representatives
with the warning that only heroic
measures will avert a break between
the transportation companies and the
unions that will wind up in a nation
wide strike by the end Of August.
u wanted to find out from the rail-
roads whether there was any possible
ity of recession from their original
statement calling for arbitration Of
their contingent proposals as well as
the mems demands" he explained to
a reporter yesterday. Il had it right
from the, top that the railroads will
stand right where they started out"
Notified by Companies.
The men already have notified the
companies that the vote counting will
be completed by Aug. ) and arrange
ments have been made for a joint con-
ference on Aug. s. AT this time both
sides will restate their positions, the
railroads for full and complete inves-
tisation and the men for a recognition
Of their demands Immediately.
II don't see how anything can come
out of these conferences to end or to
postpone the trouble" Mr. Wheeler
continued. Both sides are set. The
next step following adjournment will
be an offer from the mediation board
of its service.
Must Decide Issues.
There is nothing compelling either
side to accept In the Newlands act but
If they do the law provides that the
parties to the agreement must decide
what issues are to be arbitrated. So
there is no hope there. The confer
ences will not last more than three or
four days. and the men will then be
confronted with the issue of strike
or postpon ement.''
There has been almost complete con-
firmation that the vote in the unions
has run between 80 and 9S per cent in
favor of putting the matter Of strike or
arbitration in the hands of the broth
erhood officials

Corn-Corn was little easier on
scattered rains that have fallen in ter

has been no general relief and the mar

to pressure. Undoubtedly good deal
of damage has already been done and

FEDERATION OF LABOR
BUILDING TO BE LARGER
Plans Changed to Provide for Seven
Instead of Five Stories Now
Under Construction.

Changes in the plans for the new Of
fee building of the American Fedora
tion of Labor, being built at 9th street
and Massachusetts, avenue northwest,
agreed upon by the trustees of the fed
eraticn. provide that the new building
is to be seven stories in height, instead
Of five stories, as provided under the
original plans and contracts. Contracts
for two additional stories have been
awarded by the trustees.
AS originally planned the building
was to have been five stories high with
basement, the arrangement being
such that two additional stories might
be added later if found advisabl On
consideration, however. it was believed
the building could be more advanta-
geously constructed by making it the
full seven stories high at this time.
The building is to have a frontage of
eighty feet on Massachusetts avenue
and 1873 feet on 9Th street. 1t is to be
completed in May, but the dedication
ceremonies are not to be held until
July 4. Total cost of the building un-
der the'revised plans is to be approxi-
mately $4,000. The architects are the
Milburn- Hester Company of this city.
