tive ondon of New York, the only
Socialist voted for it.
Red tape was eliminated as far as
possible to rush the measure over to
the Senate, which after several hours
cf lively discussion over bill report
eo by it's interstate commerce COM
mittee, had recessed until o'clock.
When the senate reconvened the hous !.
legislation was there awaiting action.
The Senate Bill.
The senate committee bill, drafted
during a late session last night and
another this morning, was the Adam
son measure with the same amend
ments adopted today by the house
and added section empowering the in
terstate commerce commission to fix
the wages of interstate railroid en-
ployes at the end of the proposed pc
riod of Investigation and thereafter
At the out set of the night session
Senator Newlands sought and obtain
e. unanimous consent to put aside
the senate bill and take up the one
sent over from the house. thereby
paving the way for quick final action
without preliminary formalities that
otherwise would have been necessary.
Then Senator Underwood brought up
the issue over which the senate IS
divided by proposing as an amend
nent the rate fixing provision of the
discarded senate bill
Over this amendment debate waged
fol three hours. Senator Newlands
and Underwood advocating it and
Senator Cummins making long
speech criticisng the whole proceed
inc
Most of the senators had little to
say. and in the cloak rooms there
were strong intimations that the rea-
son for this was the general convic-
ton that in the end the house bill
would go through without change.
For while there was talk of an
all night session but early in the even
ing word WIS passed that on agree
nent to adjourn and vote at a certain
hour tomorrow would come before
the discussion had gone very far. All
throughout the morning President
Wilson was at his Office in the capi-
to ccnferring with administration
leaders and aiding in arrangement S
fer putting the legislation through.
He left Washington at o'clock in
the afternoon for Long Branch. n. j.,
where he will be notified formally to-
morrow of his nomination for reelec-
tion, entirely confident that his efforts
lad averted the industrial catas
trophe.

versy, 12 railroad officials represent
ing practically all the Southern roads
issued a statement today explaining
their position. 1t is addressed "To
the people of South Carolina"
"It has been suggested that an eight
hour day is not the proper subject OF
arbitration" says the statement. "To
this they (the railroads) have replied
that an eight hour day is not an issue,
but even if it were there is no eyi-
dence sufficient to place the question
beyord the limits of honest difference
opinion, that the eight hour day for
men engaged in train service has been
FIRMLY accepted by social opinion.
'To justify this view they point to
the fact that the men themselves have
not demanded it, do not want it and
-,ould not accept it if offered; that the
underlying principle of an eight hour
day. where it has been introduced, is
humanitarian for the purpose of ac-
tually shortening the hours of labor
and has never been justified by any
law or by any social movement as
means of increasing wages for hours
that shall remain unchanged; that
the establishment of an eight hour
day in train service has never been
favored in any political platform Of
any party and while the subject of ii
eight hour day has been under con-
sideration in party conventions, its ap-
plication has been carefully limite1
hv r.,rty opinion and has excluded
employees in railroad service and gen
orally in Industrial pursuits; that it
has never been recommended by an
executive officer of this country for
adoption by any legislative body and
has never been put into law either by
the congress of the United States or
hy nny State, and that it has never
heen brought into prominent public
discussion except in the misleading as
rect given to it in this wage contro-
versy and is now being thought OF
only as a means of avoiding the ma
ton wide disaster of interrupted trans
portation facilities"
After pointing out the fact that the
men had refused arbitration of lall
points at issue, the reason given being
that mo fair arhitration of such mat
ters of difference is possible the
statement says:
"In saying that no arbitration can
be fair, they indict the whole nation
for the proposition was that the presl-
dent sould appoint the arbitrators.
They claim the right to arbitrarily
put upon the railroads, upon the
other employees and upon the whole
public, their own demands by the
strong arm of their irresponsible and
unregulated power.
"The country is, therefore, con-
fronted by the question whether it is
to be ruled by law, or by the few
men who acknowledge no limitation,
except the limitation of force, upon
their obligations to the social wei
fare"

Sun Drunkenness.

To become sun drunk is condition
into which any one may fall in the
tropics. Exposure to the suns rays
will reduce a man to condition al
most exactly resembling drunkenness
He staggers about and is usually com,
PEELED to lie down and "sleep it off. u
Sun drunkenness is sometimes accom-
panied by nausea. Another curious
fact in connection with life in the trop.
les, where the sun rises at the same
time all the year round, is that If you
do not get up before sunrise you do
not feel well all day. You feel heavy,
out of sorts and sickish.

SUCCESS CROWNS EFFORT
TO PREVENT BIG STRIKE
President Leaves without Mistrust.
Goes to Shadow Lawn to Hear
of His Nomination.

Washington, Sept. 1.-Prevention of
the threatened railroad strike through
an act of congress seemed assured
tonight after the house by an over
whelming vote had passed the Adam
SON eight hour day Ia and the senate
had agreed to take a final vote on the
measure not later than o'clock to-
morrow evening.
Although it is possible that senate
amendments may make conferences
necessary, it is generally believed on
both sides of the capitol that when
the test comes the house bill as it
stands will be accepted and rushed to
Stadow Lawn, n. j., for President
Wilson's signature. And, while no
formal announcements were forth
coming from the employees brother
hood heads tonight, it is authorita
lively stated that this will result in
IN mediate dispatch of code messages
calling off the general strike ordered
for Monday morning.
The 'Adamson bill as passed in the
house by vote of 239 to Sc, with
minor amendments is the same meas
Gre which the brotherhood leaders
oficiallp declared yesterday would
constitute satisfactory settlement
and prevent the strike. The amend
ments, added to conform to draft
framed by the senate interstate COM
merce committee, would fix the ef-
fective date as January 1, 1917, in
stead of December l, 1916, and ex-
enpt railroads less than 100 miles
long and electric street and interur-
ban lines. Briefly it provides:
The Main Provisions.
That eight hours shall be deemed
a days work and the standard for
reckoning compensation of railroad
employees operating trains in inter
state commerce after January l,
1917, and
That committee of three appointed
by President Wilson shall investigate
the effects of the eight hour standard
far from six to nine months and then
report to congress, present wages not
to be reduced during the investigation
or for thirty days thereafter, and over
time to be paid at pro rata rate.
It was after a day of hot debate
that the house passed the bill under
4 special rule brought in when Re-
publican Leader Mann objected to its
consideration. Less than half of the
Republicans followed their floor lead
er in the opposition. and when the
final vote came 70 of them lined I'D
with the majority while only 56 voted
against the measure Just two Demo

sTRATAGEMs OF WAR.
Clever Tricks by Which Two Chilean
Warships Were Sunk

Warships Were Sunk.
Between the years 1879 and 1884 the
republics of Peru and Chile were at
war, and, although the Peruyiaus were
eventually discounted, they displayed
great adroitneSS in naval matters. On
one occasion they succeeded il sinking
two Chilean warships. their clever
strategy being thus described by Ste
phen Coleridge in his memoirs:
Soon after the Chilean fleet had set
tied down to the blockade of Callao
there appeared in the bay one morning
large barge of fruit that had obvious
ly gone adrift from the shore. The
Peruyians put out in boats and steam
pinnaces to Lring the barge back. AMI
the ChileanS. seeing what was happen
ing, also sent out pinnaceS and boats
to intercept and capture the drifting
barge A fierce fusillade between the
hostile boats followed. and several men
were killed or wounded. At length the
Peruvians drew off and left the barge
in the hands Of the triumphant Chile
ans, who towed it off amid the cheers
Of their ships crews, who had watched
the fight with keen interest.
"They brought the barge alongside
one Of the big men-of-war and quickly
sent the cargo Of luscious fresh fruit
up the side in baskets. When about
half the cargo had been taken on Board
a terrific explosion shook the bay, and
an enormous hole appeared in the side
Of the great ship which sank instantly
with all hands. By an arrangement Of
springs and balances huge charge OF
dynamite in the bottom of the barge
was ignited when a certain amount Of
the weight of the cargo was removed.
Although the Peruvians had waged the
fight for the possession Of the barge
with fierce persistence, they had never
intended to be successful
"a few weeks later large man-of-
war was sent up the coast to capture
anything worth having at Huacho. On
the appearance of the vessel the in
habitants drew their boats far inland
and. taking all their valuables, fed into
the interior One boat. new one,
larger than the others. they hauled
some little way up the beach and then
abandoned
"After pillaging the place the Chile
ans looked at the boat. which was en-
tirely empty. The Peruvians had re-
moved oars. sails. mast and even the
rowlocks. The Chileans looked it over
to be sure that there was no dynamite
in it and then towed 1t away to their
vessel. The captain had the davits run
out and ropes put round the seats at
the bow and the stern. Then be or
dered his men to haul away.
"It was the last order he ever gave,
for the moment the ropes tightened
the ship was blown to pieces and dis
appeared in seventy fathoms Of water.
A false bottom had concealed tre-
mendous charge Of dynamite that was
arranged to ignite when any upward
force was applied to any of the seats.
"The inha bitants Of the town. who
had watched their stratagem destroy
great man-of-war without the small
est risk to themselves. returned hilari-
ously to their houses with songs and
Dances"
