WILSON FEARS STRIKE.
Sends Federal Mediation Board to New
York to Be Ready.

Washington, D. G.. Aug. AT the
suggestion of President Wilson Judge w
L. Chambers and G. W. W. Hanger Of
the United States mediation board left
Washington last night for New York to
be on the ground when the representa-
tives of the 100000 railway men threat
ening strike confer with the represen.
tatives of the carriers.
Under the law the board is not author
lied to offer its services until asked to
intervene by interested parties, or until
a tie up is imminent, but in view of the
magnitude OF the threatening trouble it
was said that an offer to mediate might
be made should the employers and the
men fail to get together to-day. Presi-
dent Wilson, it was said, was anxious
to have the board on the ground, already
to do everything possible.
That the American Federation OF La
Dor stands squarely behind the men in
their demands for an eight hour day, was
made plain in letter addressed to off
cias of the unions involved by President
Gompers, sent on behalf of the execu.
tive council to the secretary Of the or
der OF railway conductors and the broth
erhoods of railway trainmen and locomo-
tive tiremen and engineers.

dealing directly with the roads. Lee said,
nevertheless, he would appeal to the fed
