RAILWAY MEN TO
MEET IN JUNE
Talk Of Strike Comes From tho Out
side and One Is Not
Expected.

CHICAGO, April 27.-Representa-
tives of the 100000 members of the
railway brotherhoods and Of the rail-
ways manag ements this afternoon
tentatively agreed to begin joint con-
ferences on the trainmen's demands
for an eight hour day at New York,
June /.
This decision was reached after a
conference between heads of the broth
erhoods and chairmen OF each of the
three railway divisional groups.
Though some of the trainmen favored
meeting in Chicago within two weeks,
the railway managers were granted
an extension Of time until June 1.
At the June / conference, the de-
mands will be threshed out in detail.
A joint committee of twenty railway
managers. including members Of each
brotherhood's executive committee will
act for the employees.
President w. S. Stone. Of the engin-
GERS said that If a strike is called 1t
will be up to the men themselves.
Il don't know whether there will be
a strike. It's up to the men," he said.
Stone said no action was taken at to-
days meeting, the mems demands be-
ing merely discussed
A. B. Garretson, president of the con-
ductors union, discussing strike talk,
said that all he knew about 1t was what
he heard from outsiders. He indicated
that the men and railroad officials will
be able to get together.

Daily Stock Letter.

NEW YORK, April 27,-The New
York Evening Sum financial review
to-day said:
The recovery in prices which was
interrupted by Tuesdays heavy profit
taking and yesterdays reaction was
resumed in Wall street this morning
and made satisfactory progress, the
feature being sharp upturn In the
standard railway issues. The advance
in the rails, which extended from "
to 2 points or more was the most sub
stantial that has taken place in many
months and was naturally feature
of favorable comment.
Whether it has anything more than
a professional backing at this time,
however, remains to be seen. Rail
way earnings of course, have made a
remarkably favorable showing OF
late and the tangible evidence of i'm
proving conditions must have appeal
ed to many investors who would not
hazard a nickel upon munition shares
and industrial specialties.
In addition the group was especially
favored today by the dividend action
on Norfolk and Western yesterday and
by excellent March statement OF the
Union Pacific system, which reported
increases of S2,457 900 in gross and
S1,5S2 900 in net earnings
Business was upon a scale OF we'll
sustained activity. but so far as one
could determine from an outward OBJ
servation the dealings were largely
professional and they are likely to con-
tinue SO, until the uncertainties sur
rounding our relations with Germany
and Mexico are definitely removed.
There was nothing official bearing
upon either OF these important Ques-
lions during the session but specula-
tive sentiment was optimistically
Elsewhere than among the railroad
issues prices recovered substantially
and United States Steel moved UP a
point and more.
There was a marked increase in
activity In the latter dealings with
trading in the railway shares and fea-
lures. The anthracite issues, under
the leadership of Reading which ex
tended its Improvement to about five
points were particularly strong.

WARNING IS GIVEN
FLOWER vANOALS
,.r.on. Who Tore Up Wells School
Garden Are Known and Watch 10
Being Kept for Further
Depredations.
OTHER CASES REPORTED
Flower Gardens All over the City
seem to be In Danger From
These Pusssyfootins
sneaks.

The flower vandal Is at work again.
Next to the poisoner OF dogs there is
nothing much lower than the vanoal
Who ruthlessly tears up flowers by
the roots or hacks off the heads of
plants, just because he wants to do
something mean. The flower yandal
was at large last summer for a time
but an end was put to his depreda-
lions when he was caught.
The persons who are playing in the
role OF flower vandals this spring are
known, and they will be quite popu-
lar with the city officials IL they keep
on with their vandalism. One of the
city officers said today that another
depreciation such as was committed
last night on the Wells school garden
would land the vandal inside the
place which is made for Just such
persons.
The school garden at the Wells
building suffered the most seriously
IN this raid. Plants and flowers
which were set out only a few DAYS
ago by the children were found pull
ed up. broken and trampled on this
morning. From all over town. too,
comes the information that these
randals are busy. Appeals were
made to the proper officials and the
matter was investigated.
The persons committing the deed
are known and a watch will be kept
in the future. Charges of malicious
mischief will be preferred if the
practice OF running gardens is persist
ed in.
It seems a shame that efforts to-
make a few barren spots bloom and
look pretty have to go for naught Just
because there are lot OF sneaking in
dividuals who think it is cute to
"pussyfoot" around and destroy prop
erty.

JAPAN'S DEMANDS
HAVE BEEN MET
immigration Bill Will be SO Worded
That 1t VIII Not Offend
Them

WASHINGTON. April 27.-Japan's
demands are said to be completely
met in an amendment to the Brunette
immigration bill which majority OF
the members of the senate immigra-
ton committee agree to today
Only an informal meeting was held
with democrats present. 1t is expect
ed the full committee will meet early
next week and confirm the commit
tees action.
The meeting was told that Japan
would be seriously offended at any
enactment designed to keep her citi-
zens from the United States. She is
now operating under "gentleman's
agreement" by which she refuses
passports to laborers who seek to en-
ter the United States, without admit,
ting that all her citizens are entitled
to free entry and settlement.
Japan. it was said, feels that for
the United States to pass law while
this agreement is in operation would
be reflection on Japan honor Jap
an also was displeased at having her
citizenes referred to in the same
classification paragraph with Hindus.

These plotters," Husting said,

public than we do from foreign foes"
