 While only the brief formal statement was forthcoming from the White House, it was indicated by administration of ficials that for the present the President regarded the situation al out of his hands, with the next move up to the conferees
 The chief feature of the "contingency proposition of the roads, which it is un- derstood the road managers considered modifying or withdrawing at tonight s conference, is a provision eliminating en- tirely all double compensation for em- ployes working overtime or performing two classes of service. The proposition was presented by the roads after the men had made the demand for an eight-hour day and extra pay for overtime.

FOUR CONGRESSMEN
 HAVE OPPOSITION
Mississippi Democrats Will Also Decide on Supreme
 Court Members Today

Jackson, Miss, August 14.-Speeches for the state supreme court, at meet ings in various districts, closed the campaign for democratic nominations in the Mississippi statewide primary to be held tomorrow. In the Seventh and Eighth congressional districts and in the judicial districts there has been particularly active campaigning. This year, for the first time, Mississippi supreme court judges will be elected by direct vote, under a new constitu- tiona1 amendment, and the prediction was made that the vote tomorrow will be heavy.
 Jackson, Miss, August 14-Candi- dates for Congress in four districts and for three judges of the state su- preme court will be nominated by the democrats of Mississippi in state wide primaries tomorrow In four of the congressional districts the present rep resentatives, having no opposition, have been declared the party nominees by the district executive committees. John Sharp Williams also has been de- clared the candidate to succeed himself as United States senator, as has Judge J. B. Holden, incumbent, for the su- preme court from the southern district, for the six-year term beginning Jan- uary 1, 1918.
 As neither the republican, progress sive nor any other party has candi dates for the Senate, Congress or su- preme court, nomination by the demo- crats is equivalent to election.
 Representatives Stephens, Hum phreys Venable and Harrison, all un- opposed, will be returned to Congress from their respective districts. In the First district Representative E. $. Candler is opposed for renomination by Fourth district Representative T. U. Sisson is opposed by William Ward and c. p. Franklin; Seventh district Rep resentative P. E. Quin is contesting against R. N. Miller, and in Eighth dis trict, Representative J. w. Collier is running against J. H. Howie.
 Aspirants for nominations for the state supreme court, in addition to Judge Holden, are:
 First district (term beginning Janu- ary 1, 191D, Clayton D. Potter, incum- bent H. B. Greaves and George H. Ethridge.
 First district (term beginning May 10, 191S), Sydney M. Smith, incumbent; A. H. Longino, former governor of Mississippi.
