The last state legislature requested
the commission to make an EXTENDED

advisable to drain some of the lakes

being done.
The matter is being studied from
the standpoint OF the effect the drain

paced back and forth in front Of the
men, stirred by the situation con-
fronting him and showing plainly the
strain he has undergone the last

Hill Against Plan.
ST. PAUL, Mimi, Aug. 19.-"We
will stand out against the eight hour
day and President Wilson's present
plan for everting the strike, as we
now understand it, even If every rail
way in the United States accepts the
plan,' said Louis W. Hill, heading the
Hill interests today. These interests
control the Great Northern, Northern
Pacific and Burlington lines.
"Such plan means receiverships
for the roads," Hill continued. "Ir
addition it would cripple our train
service. In the south twenty-eigh'
railways operate under the eight houl
day principle and every one OF them
without exception, are in the hands
of receivers We won't be- We would
not get any increased freight rates, Il
balance the increased cost. We know
that. Sc we simply won't accept the

"Our government operates railway

conditions to surmount; no hills t

Serious Problem to Solve.
GBy Robert ]. Bender, United Press
| Staff Correspondent
| WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.-President
| Wilson still has serious problem to
solve if he is to prevent national
railroad strike.
That was the situation when thirty
one railway presidents prepared to
leave their hotel today for the white
house where President Wilson waited
to go over the matter once more with
them. They had not slept lot.
most of them having been engaged in
a conference of their own up to late
hour last night.
The upshot Of their conferences was
not to accept the presidents proposal
for settlement of the controversy with
the employees. They we're prepared
to hold out for arbitration, they said.
In q lengthy statement of their posi-
ton, which they had ready to lay be-
fore the president, the railroad heads
claim they cannot yield the principle
of arbitration. They desire peace.
they say, but declare such peace must
be built up on arbitration.
Mutual Concessions.
1t appears that the situation that
II it is to be solved, must result now
In mutual concessions. The railway
are willing to do this. The
employees, it became known today, are
willing also to tarry while and con-
slider the question of possible trades.
The president let it be known that
the situation shall not get away from
him. He wants settlement and It is
he has not yet reached the
end of his resources. There was
more talk today that he would appeal
to the directors of the roads and some
Of the bigger financial interests back

May Form New Plans.
The more likely plan in view, how
ever, was the formation of an entire
~ new proposition to present to both
sides. There is no question that the
railroads will not yield to the eight
hour plan unless its Inauguration Is
preceded by thorough investigation
by an impartial commission to prove
that its application to railroad opera
ton is practicable. The railroads are
willing they say, to submit to such an
at the hands Of the in
terstate commerce commission. a
board appointed by the president or
any other body capable OF acting.
Their contention is that before they
can raise rates, they must submit to
and therefore before
they raise salaries-or make change
equivalent to this-they should be en-
titled to an investigation. To yield
without this investigation they claim,
would prejudice later appeals to inter
state commerce commission for In
creased rates.
