Lincoln, Sept. lin telegram
today to President Wilson Governor
Morehead Of Nebraska says that in
his judgment as last resort, should
no other form of settlement be

federal authorities should take over
the railroads. His telegram follows:
Hon. Woodrow Wilson, President
of the United States, Washington,
D. C.-Mr. President The threat

paralyze business and industry, and

Must Pass Two Censors.

Ward Price, to whom the above
dispatch relative to the abdication OF
King Constantine is credited, Is the
official British press representative
designated by the government to act
for all British publications in that
area. Nevertheless, his dispatches
are subject not only to the Greek CEN
sorship, but TO the French military
censorship, which controls all lines
Of communication from Athens. The
fact that both ccnsorships, as well as
the British censorship in London,
have permitted this dispatch to come
through is significant.
On Tuesday Mr.. Price sent from
Saloniki report that King Constan-
tine had fed from Athens to Larissa.
This dispatch was discredited in Lon
don official circles. Doubt also ap-
pcared to be cast on its correctness
BY dispatches filed from Athens

by Mr.. Price, and that his absence

TRAINMEN ALL SAY
THEY HAVE ORDERS
Know They Are to Strike Even
if Leaders Are Not Allowed
to Notify Them.
OBEY RULES OF THE ORDER

Union Pacific brotherhood officials
now maintaining headquarters in
Omaha, say they feel sure the injunc-
ton order Of Judge Sears, restraining
the officials Of the railway conductors
Of the Union Pacific from promulgat-
ing or circulating the strike order for
Monday, will be set aside Saturday
morning, when the hearing is to be
held in district court.
The officials Of the conductors are
silent on the matter, as the injunc-
ton orders them to be.
.'How do you do; sorry, ! can't
talk" said Charles H. Friday Of Chey-
cnne, and he sat back in his chair and
read the morning papers, obeying the
injunction order strictly, not to
.'promulgate" in any way. He is
chairman OF the conductors, and the
injunction is talking directly to him.
Smith More Talkative.
D. w. Smith of Council Bluffs,
general chairman of the Brotherhood
Of Locomotive Firemen & Engineers
OF the Union Pacific, was more talka-
tice. There is no court restraint on
his tongue.
Il am satisfied there will be no diff
ficulty in getting that injunction set
aside tomorrow morning." he said,
when the chance is offered the con-
ductors to be heard and to show that
they have complied with the rules OF
the order strictly.
"All the restraining order does any
way is to tie the hands OF the chair
man and committee to prevent them
from getting information 10 the men
officially as to a strike order. II in
no way restraints the men from quit
ting their jobs. And the men have
known all about the strike order for
some time. anyway"
Drawn by Railroad.
Commenting further on the injunc-
tion feature, Mr.. Smith said. This
petition OF the conductor, Hamilton.
asking for the injunction did not
originate with him. ! have informa-
tion that II was drawn up by the rail-
road. OF course, he was asked to
sign it and he did. There are always
4 few fellows at time like this who
will do thing Of this kind to curry
favor.
Il know, too, that another railroad
here prepared a petition OF this kind
and asked some OF the men to sign it,
seeking to get out an injunction also,
| know the men who were asked to
sign it."
Charles Bogue Of North Platte,
general chairman OF the Brotherhood
Of Railway Trainmen, said:
You can depend on il that the men
are all notified now, and unless the
order Is changed they are to go out |
1t s o'clock Monday morning.
All Have Orders.
In reply to the statement that many |
OF the railway men, engineers, brake
men and conductors interviewed by
The Bee Thursday, claimed to have
received no personal order to Strike,
Mr.. Smith said: well, you under
stand there are lot OF men, and il |
is always conceivable that some OF
them had not yet received the order

Saturday.


The sale of seats for VIM. Faver-

morning at o'clock at the Cenrral
Pharmacy.
In bringing Mr.. Faversham to PEN
sacola, the local management feels
that this city is securing one of the
most artistic attractions on the road
today. 1t is so seldom that Mr.. Fa-
versham leaves the larger cites that
his appearance in the smaller cities
always attracts widespread attention.
Pensacolians will have the pleasure of
seeing the first real society play in
a few seasons.
''The Hawk" is tense gripping
play of social life that makes a di-
rect appeal to everyone. The scenic
part of the production is a mammoth
one, and it is for that reason Mr..
Faversham's management has writ
ten a letter to the local management
making an especial request that
everyone be seated at S:15, as it is
necessary for the show to start
promptly on time in order to get the
show out on the usual time.
The Messrs. Schubert in sending
Mr.. Faversham to Pensacola, have
done so upon a personal appeal from
Mr.. Levy who witnessed a perform
ance of 1.-THE Hawk" while in New
York. Mr.. Faversham plays very few
southern cities on his way to New

Weir and Joe Brant. It exceeds in ex-
element all the previous episodes
which have already established rec
ord for moving picture serials. This
episode tells a gripping story of the
attempt of corrupt railway magnates
to put out of the way honest officials
who are endeavoring to give the
people fair deal.
