Fifth, an amendment of the exist

that in case the methods of accommo-

Wilson confers With Clark.
Tonight President Wilson had a
conference in Speaker Clark's room
at the capitol. No definite conclusions
We're reached.
President Wilson confided to advis-
ers tonight his earnest hope that the
brotherhoods, recognizing the fair
ness with which he has treated them,
would yield to his request, that, pend
ing action by congress, they rescind
their strike order. He asked the lead
ers to do SO at their conference last
night, but they refused fatty, saying
they had not the power.
The president intends to use all his
influence to hasten action in congress,
but should there be delay, he intends
to appeal to the patriotism of the lead
ers and their duty to the public not to
persist in calling the strike at this
time. With the ISSUES now set forth
before the country, the president ex-
poets the public to make known it's
opposition to the strike regardless of
the merits of the controversy.

pared themselves for a strike. Orders
not to accept perishable freight for
shipment were issued by many lines !;

PUCK REWRITES
AMERICAN HISTORY

Puck, the famous humorous weekly
is going to revise the history Of the
country according to the modern the
DRY of telling the naked truth about
historical events.
The first of it's Historical Numbers
appears on the newsstands this week
and if we may accept the initial arti
Gle as an indication of what is tt
come, our satirical contemporary aims
to upset some cherished traditions Of
the little red schoolhouse.
Tradition has clouded history since
the beginning of time, explains Puck's
historian. There is abundant testi
mony eXtant that Joan of Arc was
burned by proxy only, and as a mat
ter of fact lived long enough to settle
down and marry the man of hel
Choice. "
Beatrice, the flame of Dante's pas
sion, was a giddy young debutante o.
nine summers at. the time Of hel
death; and facts indicate that If Sit
Walter Raleigh ever laid a cloak ovel
a mud puddle to protect Queen Eliz
abeth's feet, it was the garment of al
unfortunate retainer and not his owl
richly brocaded Inverness.
Tradition has painted the Bastile al
a prison of horrors, crowded with I'm
happy victims of the royal displeas
ure. Facts indicate that it never con
tanned more than sixteen or seventeen
prisoners at any one time and tha
these reveled in any luxury they GRAY
ed.
Puck has uncovered many tradi
tons Of our own history as widely al
variance with the facts as the Incl
dents quoted.
In the first place, says Puck, Queer
Isabella never pawned her jewels tt
start Columbus on his voyage of dis
covery, for the very simple reason
that lsabella's jewels had been put tt
the slaughter many months before
Columbus appeared at the Spanish
court and asked for help.
Nor did the doughty adventures or
the Mayflower first set foot on Ply
mouth Rock, unless they used by
droaeroplane, for the waters around
Plymouth Rock would hardly float 8
cream skinner.
Peter Stuyvesant, we learn, enjoy
ed the full use of two perfectly good
legs, and the wooden stump handed
down to posterity seems to have beer
a Pigment of the imagination.
These are few of the episodes tc
be pictorially treated in Pucks series
Other startling and amusing revela
tiOns are promised. B."

FEW INDEPENDENTS WILL
 DETERMINE SPEAKERSHiP
Neither Democrats Nor Republicans
 Have Majority in the House.

Washington, Dec. 26.-Revised fig ures on the returns from the last elec- ton show definitely that neither dem ocrats nor republicans will have a majority of the next house, necessary to elect a speaker. and that a hand full of independents will determine which side will control the organiza- ton.
 Conceding seats to candidates in possession of certificates of election, because they are certain to participate in the organization of the house, the personnel now stands:
 Republicans 214, democrats 213; in- dependents 2; progressives. g. prohi- bltionist 1; socialist 1; contested 9 A majority is 21S, hence should either democrats or republicans win both of the contests they would be still short of amajority.
 All of the independents are main taining strict silence regarding their attitude on the speal1ership, but the democratic and republican leaders are agreed on how most of them will vote provided caucuses are held and soli- darity maintained by the two old par ties.

TROLLEY CAR JUMPED
 O TRACKS IN WATERBURY
Crashed Into Three story Building
 No One Seriously Injured.

Waterbury, Dec. 26.-A double truck trolley car ran away on Con gress avenue, a steep hill in the Brook lyn section of Waterbury this after noon and after a wild dash for al- most a quarter of a mile, jumped the tracks, crossed Bank street and crash ed against a three story brick build- ing on Bank street, owned by John Yoksza. There were three passen- gers on the car, two women, one of whom had an infant child, but nei- ther was seriously hurt, although all were badly shaken up. The crew of the car had just changed poles at a switch point, when the car started to roll down hill. They jumped aboard and stuck to their posts, escaping without injury It is understood the absence of lair" caused the car to start. Several big plate glass win dows were broken before the runaway car came to a stop on the sidewalk and shoppers in the stores were al- most in a panic when the glass start ed to fly about their heads. The run away car narrowly escaped co1liding with Fire Chief Heitman's automo- biie. The chief was on his way to a fire few feet away from where the runaway trolley stopped.

FRANZ BoPP DENIES
 VIOLATION OF NEUTRALITY.
States He Neither Forwarded Nor D-
 rected Dynamiting Attempts.

San Francisco, Cal, Dec. 26-Franz Bopp, German consul, today denied under cross examination during his trial with six associates for conspiracy to violate neutrality, that Captain Franz von Papen, former military at- tache of the German embassy at Wash ington, had financed or directed the al- legged dynamiting attempts charged against the San Francisco consulate.
 Won Papen was in San Francisco during 1915, Bopp said, but chiefly for recreation. It was in that year the government alleges various dynamite plots against allied munition shipments and Canadian railroad property were planned and executed.
 Is it not fact that Lieutenant G. w. von Brincken and c. c. Crowley, two other defendants in this case planned to take service under Von Papen because he had more money to spend on dynamiting entente munitions shipments?" District Attorney Preston asked.
 Not at all. There is nothing to it,, Bopp replied. Crowley. went to New York under my directions. He had failed to obtain the information about Canadian military contingents for which I had sent him east. He had a letter of introduction from me to Won Papen. It had nothing to do with dynamiting'

FEDERAL CONTROL OF ALL
 RAILROADS INEVITABLE
Unless Rates Are Adjusted to Con-
 form to the Expenses.

New York, Dec. 25.-Unless railroad rates are adjusted to make revenues conform approximately to expenses, federal control of the country's rail- roads is inevitable according to the annual report of the general executive committee of the Railway Business Association, made public here tonight.
 If total revenues are not made ade- quate to total expenses,'' the report states, mo question will long remain as between federal and state author ity, because sooner or later the fed sral government under those condi- tions must take over the roads. In that case the states would lose all voice whatever and federal regulation, if any, would present the grotesque spectacle of one political officer su- pervisin ganother whose tenure pro- ceeds from the same source of power as his own. Whoever omits from his prescription statutory obligation upon the commission to permit rates ade- quate to carry the national business and develop the country leaves out the essential ingerdient without which the whole compound is valueless.
 "The present law" the report points out, declares that each rate shall be just, reasonable and non -discrimina- tory"

German Arms
 in Ascendancy
CONTINUE GAINS OVER RUSSIANS
 AND RUMANIANs
CAPTURE $500 RUSSIANS
British Victory Over Turks at Mag hadaba, 90 Miles East of the suez Canal, Was of Great Proportions ArtiIIeIry Active on otherd Fronts.

Rumania continues the theatre of greatest activities. In northern Wal lachia, along the southern Moldavian border, and in Dobrudja the Teutonic allies continue to make gains over the Russians and Rumanians. Thirty miles southwest of Braila the invaders have captured the town of Fi1ipechti, and west of Rimnfk Sarat are on the of- fensive. In this latter region during the past few days $500 Russians have been made prisoner.
 In Mesopotamia the British forces are still in quest of Kuet-el- -Amara, in which sector they have made furth- CT advances on the right bank of the Tigris and consolidated and extended their positions south and east of the town. Gassabs Fort, twenty miles southeast of Kut. a base from which hostile Arabs had been operating against the British, has been destroy ed.
 The British victory over the Turks at Maghadaba. 90 miles east of the Suez canal, was of great proportions.
 In addition to making prisoner of 1850 men of the Turkish force of about 1000, seven guns. a large num- Der of rifles, much ammunition and large quantities of other war stores were captured.
 On the other fronts there have been only artillery engagements.

B. 6 M. LEASED LINE
 SYSTEM WRONG IN PRINCIPLE
In Opinion of Henry B. Day, Federal
 Trustee of the Stock

Boston. Dec. 26.-Testifying in the federal district court today on the question of making permanent the tenn porary receivership of the Boston and Maine stock owned by the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad, ex- pressed the opinion that even if the receivership was removed and the present rate of earnings kept up, the road would not be in a position to pay dividends for at least three years. MT. Day testified that the trouble with the road was that it's leased line sys- tenn was wrong in principle.
 Further limitations on the inquiry were imposed by the court today Judge Morton ruled that before going deeper into details of proposed plans of re- organization, evidence should be in- troduced tending to show that the pres ent board of directors was improperly interested or influenced to bring about reorganization through a receivership. Minority stockholders have alleged that the directors were guilty of breach ftrust and were in collision with the petitioning creditors in assenting to the receivership.

TIME LIMIT FOR MEXICAN
 PROTOCOL HAS EXPIRED
Indications Are That a Related Rati- fcation by Carranza Would Be Ac- cepted.

Washington, Dec. 26.-Although Gen. eral Carranza had not replied tonight to the demand of the United States that he either ratify or repudiate the protocol drawn by the Mexican Amer lean joint commission, the expiration of the time limit was not made the occasion for formally declaring the ne- gotiations at an end
 While the time expired at midnight, officials were inclined to take into con- sideration that reply might have been delayed and indicated that a fa- Vorable reply even though day or more late would not be rejected inas- much as an adjustment of the interna- tional difficulties was the chief ob- ject.
 Refusal to accept the terms of the agreement, under which American troops would be withdrawn from Chihuahua, means the closing of ne- gotiations through the joint commits sion for adjustment of the questions at issue between the United States and the de facto government of Mexico
 What effect the new situation then presented would have on the policy of the United States is not known, but it was said at the state department today that any further move would be made through the usual channels, and not by the commission which for more than three months attempted to effect an amicable settlement.
